Thrive In Your Thought Life Series

You were made for more than to just barely get by or merely survive… you were made to come alive in Christ, to strive toward Him and thrive in your life. We are called as Christians to be more than conquerors through Christ, Who loves us and lives through us. The best kept secret in the body of ...read more

Jesus Loves Sinners, Part 2 Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 9, 2021

The Returning Son doesn’t bring any gifts to his family from his time away. Instead, he comes asking for a small amount of mercy and a job. Does he consider his father's broken heart and the agony of rejected love that his father has endured?

For those of you old enough to remember the years of the 39th President of the United States, Jimmy Carter. I was a young kid back then and my parents lived in northern Alabama. We welcomed my sister in those days as I remember waiting in long lines at the gas stations hoping they haven’t run out. ...read more

God, Are You Punishing Me?

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 24, 2021

There are certain degrees of grace that are never produced in a believer until he is severely tempted. Satan is sent into the kitchen to act as God’s dishwasher. Sometimes it is Satan’s special scouring that makes God’s finest china

2020 has been a roller coaster ride, hasn’t it? Almost everyone thinks our world is in chaos in 2020. It’s as if our world is a snow-globe shaking up and down. During this pandemic, we have seen empty streets, empty shelves in supermarkets, empty stadiums, and empty churches. These are unsettling ...read more

The Politics Of Jesus

Contributed by Tj Long Jr on Oct 30, 2023

Christians think they align with Jesus' views. Some are surprised, others offended. Jesus’ campaign sounds like a liberal utopia because we’re not ready to let go of hate, we’re not ready to trust in God and not in the law. We have to transcend hate and show the mercy we’ve been shown by God.

There are only two shows that I’ve ever watched the entire series. One of which I still own on DVD and have watched the entire series 3 times. If there was any show that I’d love to see still running today it would be this one. I’d love to see how it would interpret and respond to the issues of our ...read more

John 3:16 Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Apr 23, 2024

When John wrote these words, Jews would have thought God would love only the righteous. But the Bible doesn’t say God loves good-looking people. The Bible doesn’t say God loves rich and successful people.

Think with me about some of the most famous sayings in history. Martin Luther King Jr said famously, “I have a dream…” John Fitzgerald Kennedy said, “Ask not what your country can do for you – ask what you can do for your country.” Perhaps there is no more famous sentence anywhere than John ...read more

I believe that America is very close to being in the same sinful position that Judah found herself in. God has poured out His mercy upon this nation for years. He has continued to bless America in spite of her abominable and sinful ways. The message of re
