Christmas According To John Series

Contributed by Michael Stark on Dec 7, 2013

John begins his examination of the ministry of Jesus by looking at the Incarnation. The message seeks to explore what this means for believers.

Don't Put Your Investments In Bags With Holes

Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on Feb 17, 2021

Haggai's messages led to the restoration of the Temple. He challenged the people by using three themes : Encouragement, Warning, and Hope. This message raises critical questions for Christians and churches as we seek God's will, especially while witnessing a changing landscape.

God often uses a single voice to stir the hearts of his people. These prophetic voices often come at crucial points in history. Here are some examples. • The Prime Minister Winston Churchill’s inspiring oratory is believed to have helped save Britain in WWII. • On November 2, 1863, several ...read more

Holiness

Contributed by Stephan Brown on Mar 11, 2002

And I hear all kinds of people quoting “Be holy as I am holy” After all, several times God did say that to his people. And ...read more
