    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Aug 19, 2019
     | 9,460 views

    We need to feast on the Word of God much more than we do.

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 1, 2025
     | 214 views

    Jesus gives authority to serve, not rule—power shaped like a towel, lifting others, revealing love’s quiet strength, and mirroring His heart.

    1. The Ladder and the Towel My senior pastor once stood with me in the church fellowship hall staring at a row of framed photographs—portraits of evangelists who had conducted meetings through the years. His finger paused on one. “H. M. S. Richards, Sr.,” he said softly. Then came a line I’ll ...read more

    We are living in a confusing time in our culture. In such a time we need absolutes. I believe that the Ten Commandments can provide the absolutes that we need.

    Blessed… Praise Be!

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 14, 2026
     | 268 views

    The Beatitudes expose neutral faith, declaring where life with God truly exists and refusing to let blessing remain comfortable.

    “Blessed…” That word is so familiar to us that it barely registers anymore. We hear it and we nod. We hear it and we assume we know what comes next. Blessed — we think — means approved. Comfortable. Favored. Safe. Almost instinctively, the response follows. Praise be. We say it quickly. We say ...read more

    Sometimes Trading Places with things we think we can do -- or seem right to do doesn’t work out. Have you traded the real you -- your character -- for someone that really isn’t you? Trying desperately to please people just so you will be accepted? Knowin

    Sometimes Trading Places with things we think we can do -- or seem right to do doesn’t work out. Paul addressed that with the Romans… The Romans were dedicated to serving and worshipping their gods, but Paul saw that they needed to Trade Places with the one true God.

    Blessing Of Power Series

     | 5,661 views

    God does help those who can’t help themselves! We’re disabled by sin, yet God still loves us too much to leave us in the mess we’re in. Admitting our powerlessness is the first step on the road to recovery and to receiving power from Above.

    “Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to the power that is at work within us. To Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations; for ever and ever! Amen.” On July 13th 1977, I was having dinner in Little Italy, ...read more
