Being Transformed From Glory To Glory: 7 Transitions In The Christian Life Series

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 23, 2024

I think God gave us the caterpillar and the butterfly to tell us about ourselves. To tell us that we need a transformation to become all we’re meant to be.

“Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 18 But we all, with unveiled faces, looking as in a mirror at the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as from the Lord, the Spirit.” -2nd Cor 3:17-18 We as ...read more

Thanksgiving Focus Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 10, 2021

David starts this Psalm by telling himself to praise the Lord, and he ends it by telling himself to do it again. If we would tell ourselves as we begin the day to praise the Lord and not forget all His benefits, and if we would end the day by doing the same, we would be different people.

You will, no doubt, think me strange for saying it, but I am thankful for my ignorance. It gives me so much to be thankful for. My vast ocean of ignorance is my playground where I can fish for new insights, and I can dive for the sunken treasure of golden truths that lay hidden in God's Word. ...read more

When Believers Fall Series

Contributed by Chuck Sligh on Jun 28, 2015

Simon the Sorcerer, contrary to many theologian's views, was a true believer. But being immature, he was seduced to go back to the old ways of thinking. It took a truth-telling believer (Peter) to set him straight and tell him the path to forgiveness.

Pray From Where You Are (1) Series

Contributed by Kent Kessler on May 12, 2007

Notice what Jesus DOESN’T tell them. Jesus never tells the disciples they have to change first. He never tells them to become more than what they are and that they need to change before they can approach God. You can pray to God from right where you are.

[ME] I grew up in church where the Pastor would call on people to pray during the service or to close the service. I distinctly remember one particular gentleman in our church, when he was called upon to close in prayer, my teenage friends and I would literally moan with the expectation of an ...read more

See Beyond The Rainbow, See The God Of The Promise.

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Aug 16, 2007

The rainbow tells much about our God. God signed His Holy Contract with man in a unique way. I am told the right person can tell a lot about a person by their signature and style of writing. You can tell a lot about OUR GOD BY HIS RAINBOW SIGNATURE.

Living At The Wrong Address?

Contributed by Chad Bolfa on Oct 1, 2010

The Bible tells us that there are only two addresses and they are so different you can easily tell them apart. But it seems strange to me that sometimes although you can easily tell them apart, God’s people end up living at the wrong address. So today we

Living at the Wrong Address? Jeremiah 17:5-6 Introduction: If I were to ask you where you live, I may get a variety of answers. Some may look at the big picture and say “I live in America.” Others may be looking at the big picture but not quite as big and say “I live in ...read more

A Man Named John

Contributed by Tony Fox on Dec 12, 2000

Just as John was God’s dynamic voice telling those in the wilderness about the Christ to come, so we are to be God’s dynamic voice telling the world about Christ too.

The Plan To Persevere Series

Contributed by Doug Fannon on Feb 27, 2018

How are we to overcome the heresies and temptations of the world. Jude just does,t tell us about the problems, he list the solution and tells us to snatch others from the fire.

We live in uncertain times. We live in a world that reimagines truth as something fluid. Oprah Winfrey speaks of “your truth,” and the world is mesmerised by what they imagine is her depth of insight. Of course, all such talk of truth as fluid is foolish. Water still freezes at 32 degrees F and ...read more

Handling Money

Contributed by David Henderson on Mar 19, 2015

In this story Jesus gives 3 men some money and tells them to use it wisely. So I want to tell the story in way that I think you can understand it.

Good morning. How is everyone? Who knows what this is? This is a shoebox. Go through gifts. Listen to this Scripture: “For the man who uses what he is given will be given more. But the man who is unfaithful God will take those things away from him “ Matthew 25:29 There ...read more

"Occupy Till Come”

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 18, 2025

In the parable of the distribution of pounds, in Luke 19:13, Jesus tells us how Christians should live until He returns. • He tells believers to OCCUPY TILL HE COMES!

Also, this verse of scripture tells us how long we are to OCCUPY….UNTIL HE COMES. This phrase comes from a parable in Luke 19:12-27 called “The Parable of the Pounds”. Jesus told this story because the people thought He was on earth to set up His kingdom right then. Jesus wanted them to ...read more

Love Your Neighbor

Contributed by Jimmy Haile on May 3, 2021

Jesus doesn't tell me who my neighbor is all he tells me is that I'm supposed to love them as much as I love myself.

Matthew 22:37-Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ 38-“This is the first and great commandment. 39-“And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40-“On these two commandments hang all the ...read more

This Is The Third Time! Series

Contributed by Greg Nance on Dec 1, 2003

What kind of warnings do you listen to? Paul makes it clear in this chapter that talk is about over and action is about to take place.

2 Corinthians 13 - For the Third Time! I remember being a child and hearing the ominous words from my mom or dad, "That’s the third time I’ve told you…" Whoever said, "Three’s a charm" was uninformed. Three can also mean big trouble!
