    Introduction How can you sing “Victory in Jesus” the right way if you don’t have any? You’ve heard it—people smiling and clapping through the song, but if you could look inside, the victory light is barely flickering. Life has a way of testing whether the words we sing are the life we ...read more

    2 Corinthians 9:6-15 Cultivating a Generous Heart “God loves a cheerful giver,” writes Paul to the Church in Corinth.

    34. The Death Of Ishbosheth Series

    Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on Dec 17, 2025
     | 83 views

    Second Samuel chapter 4 is a sobering warning to anyone tempted to “help God along.” It shows us what happens when fear replaces faith, when ambition overrides conscience, and when people wrap sinful actions in religious language and expect God’s blessing in return.

    The Death of Ishbosheth December 17, 2025 Dr. Bradford Reaves Crossway Christian Fellowship 2 Samuel 4 When God’s Will Is Used as an Excuse for Sin One of the most dangerous phrases a Christian can utter is this: “God understands why I had to do it this way.” Those words have justified betrayal, ...read more

    27. The Kingdom Parables – The Seventh – The Dragnet – Part 3 Of 6 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Dec 19, 2025
     | 44 views

    In the Dragnet parable, we see how it related to the seventh city of the seven churches John wrote to. That was Laodicea. We take a look at the background for Laodicea, and then we begin to look into the letter that was sent to the church in Revelation 3. This is the lukewarm church.

    27. THE KINGDOM PARABLES – THE SEVENTH – THE DRAGNET – PART 3 OF 6 THE DRAGNET - LAODICEA BACKGROUND AND LETTER In every Parable of the Kingdom, we have seen that each Parable remarkably fitted the church from Revelation chapters 2 and 3 that matched that Parable.

    Running The Race

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Mar 1, 2025

    The New Testament likens the Christian life to running a race. We look at how it uses the metaphor. It calls us to strive, to improve, and to stay the course.

    INTRODUCTION The writer of the Letter to the Hebrews wrote: ‘Let us run with endurance the race that is set before us.’ The writer imagined the Christian life as a race – a race that requires endurance. We’re presently in a series in which we’re looking at items in the news. In some of the ...read more
