    Just as Moses and Jonah came out of the water with a message from God. The peoples of African descent came out of the waters on slave ships and have a message from God, for the World.

    Don’t sit down and die but get up and try! 2 King 7:3 Why sit we here until we die? 2 Kings 6:24-30 and 7:1-16 24 And it came to pass after this, that Ben-hadad king of Syria gathered all his host, and went up, and besieged Samaria. 25 And there was a great famine in Samaria: and, behold, they ...read more

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Jun 30, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,076 views

    Saving America from our mess is bigger than who will be our next President. It is a prayerful dependence on God that comes by seeking God in his will; trusting God in his Grace; and Joining God in his Purpose.

    1. I am convinced that America is in an almost hopeless mess. a. Our hope is not in a new POTUS or US Congress b. It is not on a new focus of government c. Our hope is where it has always been, "In God We Trust" -- not our schemes/ourselves 2. Revival Prayer In 1857 there was a 46 year old man ...read more

    Thoughts On Public Schooling: Should Christians Homeschool Their Children?

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 30, 2021
     | 1,748 views

    Many an average American boy or girl will be raised up in the school rooms of public education. I would like to share some thoughts from great minds on education itself, public education, and wisdom. I'd also like to share my personal experiences in the public education system.

    “The function of education, therefore, is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. But education which stops with efficiency may prove the greatest menace to society. The most dangerous criminal may be the man gifted with reason, but with no morals.” ? Martin Luther King Jr. Many ...read more

     | 4,535 views

    King Ahab is arguably the evilest king of the Northern Ten Tribes of Israel. He was the first Israelite king to marry a heathen (non-Israel) woman, the beautiful but devilish Jezebel. Together they became one of the most sinful couples in Biblical history.

    Ahab and Jezebel According to the Hebrew Bible, Ahab was the seventh king of Israel, the son and successor of King Omri, and the husband of Jezebel of Sidon. The Hebrew Bible presents Ahab as a wicked king. Died 852 BC · Ramoth-Gilead, Syria Father Omri Reign 871 – 852 BC Burial Samaria, ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 1,777 views

    Why Wikipedia beats printed encylcopedias. How doing the hardest thing (what's that?) can help lift our spirits when we are low. And how that fits not just with Jesus's saying about saltiness but with the rest of today's bible readings. A sermon from September 2015

    Have a taste of this [hand out teaspoon of salt to someone in the front row] “If salt loses it’s saltiness with what will you season it?” I have two things that I would like to draw out of today’s texts about ways in which we can lose our saltiness - one personal and one public.

    Jesus lived out and taught us how to become great in the Kingdom of God. We not only deny ourselves, pick up our cross and follow Jesus, but humble ourselves to become servant to all.

    WHEN WE THINK OF SERVICE TO OTHERS AND ALL THE POSSIBLE WAYS TO ENGAGE OUR ABILITIES, I READ A RATHER HUMOROUS WAY OF LOOKING AT THIS WHICH SAID, ““IF YOU THINK YOU ARE TOO SMALL TO BE EFFECTIVE, YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN IN BED WITH A MOSQUITO.” HOWEVER, ON A MORE SERIOUS NOTE, I LIKE THE WORDS OF JOHN ...read more

    If we learn from Peter – hear the straight talk of Jesus to Peter and to us we can avoid a lot of the pitfalls and mistakes Peter made. If we yield to the straight talk of Jesus – listen – repent – change course then we too can make a difference for the Kingdom of Heaven.

    Theme: Let’s Talk Series 3: Straight Talk What is it? It’s like when your spouse asks if the new outfit makes her look fat and you say, “Yes, you look like you gained 30 pounds!” It’s like when your wife asks if you love her new haircut and you say, “No you ...read more
