Abraham's Model Of Progression In Faith

Contributed by Reggie Corfield on Mar 13, 2014

All the stories of the bible are beautiful but some are timeless like the calling of Abraham. Abraham is referred to as the “father of faith” and as we examine his life and faith, I see a four part progression begining with obedience.

Nothing Withheld

Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Jan 12, 2015

In our relentless pursuit of what is expedient for us, we have run the other way from God, but in Christ God has run to us and for us, and he has provided the Lamb for the sacrifice that will reclaim us for God.

Have you ever felt that God was asking you do the impossible, that what he was asking of you might be more than you could give? more than you could bear to give? Someone at work gets the promotion you were applying for – hoping for – and you know you are better qualified for the job. ...read more
