Are Angels Really Among Us And If So What Do They Do? Series

Contributed by James Lee on Nov 27, 2013

Our Bible study group got sidetracked on the subject of "angels" I adapted this message to give them a glimpse into whether or not they exist and if so what do they do? Thank you Brian Atwood for such a wonderful message.

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on May 11, 2020

Daniel anticipates persecution of 'the saints' to an extent that he describes it as war. Some commentators today have used the word 'war' or 'genocide' to describe persecution of Christians today. Daniel's prophecy seems to be fulfilled.

Today we move on to Daniel. We’re familiar with many of the stories in the first half of Daniel, the fiery furnace, the lion’s den, and so on. But we’re less familiar with the material in the second half. Daniel has a lot to say about ‘End Times’. One thing that Daniel tells us is that there ...read more

Ahab goes one step too fr and God decides to act in judgement of him and Jezebel. Yet even then God's mercy is to the fore.

Reading through the story of Ahab and Jezebel, I occasionally feel a bit sorry for Ahab. He gets a glimpse every now and then of what’s the right thing to do. You feel like he’d really like to do the right thing, but he’s made so many bad decisions in the past that he just ...read more

The Great Shepherd's Claims

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Apr 18, 2012

Sermon On Flying Beneath The Radar

Contributed by William Meakin on Sep 27, 2024

Radar is defined as a system for detecting the presence, direction, distance, and speed of aircraft, ships, and other commodities, by sending out pulses of radio waves which are reflected off the intercepted object back to the source.

The rituals and practices that form our loves spill out well beyond the sanctuary. Many ...read more

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 28, 2023

When we find ourselves in a dry deserted place and time in our walk with the Lord, and things do not seem as if they are getting better, do we just give up?
