Joy Was A Top Priority With Jesus Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Feb 6, 2023

Take note of Jesus saying it is my joy that He wants to be made full and complete in His disciples. Jesus is saying that his life is one of great joy, and He wants to pass it on.

Jesus was a man of frequent prayer. We see this clearly in the text below- And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed. Mark 6:46 And when he had sent them away, he departed into a mountain to pray. Luke 5:16 And he ...read more

Empty Cross, Empty Tomb ... Full Heart Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on May 14, 2019

Mary Magdalene was an empty cup and an empty cross and empty tomb filled her up. And if you are an empty cup this morning, let me tell you how an empty cross and an empty tomb can fill you up.

Have you ever tried to help someone who doesn’t want to be helped? Pretty frustrating, amen? Just ask Jesus. It’s hard to help someone who doesn’t want help … difficult to heal someone who doesn’t think they’re sick … impossible to fill a cup that’s already full ... impossible to teach a mind ...read more

Finding The Love Of Your Life Series

Contributed by Perry Fowler on Mar 20, 2025

Life is about what you love. Jesus said that we should love God with all our heart, soul, and mind. The Book of Titus challenges us to discover, "Who or what is really the love of your life."

Life is about what you love. In the last 300 years the way people see life and the definition of a “successful life” has changed. It has moved from morality to money; from God to goals, from Christ to culture. This is not new; this same setting was the type of culture Paul was addressing in the ...read more

A Costly Memorial Series

Contributed by C. Philip Green on Oct 7, 2023

As you think about what Jesus did for you on the cross, consider making a costly memorial, and start by giving Him yourself. Sure, people will criticize, but Jesus won’t. He’ll commend you before all your critics someday.

In Great Britain, a butcher specified in his will that he be cremated and that at his memorial service the organ was to play Cole Porter’s song, “Every Time We Say Goodbye.” Well, he got half his wish. He was cremated, but the organist brought the wrong Cole Porter Sheet Music. Instead of playing, ...read more

Measure Upon Measure – Cursed – The Restoration Of God - Part 6 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 28, 2025

The ground was cursed because sin destroyed the harmony in God’s creation. In Part 1 we began the subject, and in this Part 2 we continue with the way Christ identified with the curse and now has restored to us acceptance and spiritual blessings. God has restored more than Adam knew.

MEASURE UPON MEASURE – CURSED – THE RESTORATION OF GOD - Part 6 We continue the third consequence of sin which is CURSE, for sin produced cursing in the earth – the ground, and on creation.
