God's Dream Fulfilled

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 5, 2021

The plan of salvation was a dream of God even before He created man. He knew the consequences of making a free will creature, and He knew sin and death was inevitable. But it was worth it, for He had a plan of salvation that would be a dream come true.

Few people have ever been more lost than Dr. Robert Dykes and his wife Margery. Both in their late 20's and parents of two young children, they were presumed dead when their small plane went down in the mountains of the Wyoming-Utah boarder. Hundreds of planes searched in vain for nearly a ...read more

Dare To Be Humble

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Aug 28, 2016

Jesus uses a couple of etiquette lessons to teach true humility. The point is simple (and repeated throughout scripture): If we lift ourselves up, God will put us down. If we lift others up, God will lift us up.

Luke 14:1, 7-14 Dare to Be Humble The Duke of Wellington once haughtily drew himself up to his full height and thundered to one of his staff officers, “God knows I have many faults, but being wrong is not one of them!” The best of us struggle with pride from time to time. In ...read more

Losing My Religion? "Scandalous"

Contributed by Charlie Roberts on Dec 9, 2015

Some have forgotten their calling...they've been called in every direction, but have forgotten the true calling they received the day that the Holy Spirit moved them to accept Jesus as their personal Lord and Saviour...the day they became born again!

The Long-Prophesied Prince Of Peace

Contributed by Craig Condon on Dec 19, 2015

The only way for us to have true peace is to say that we want to live like Christians and then act like we want to live as Christians. The only way that can happen is if we welcome the Prince of Peace into our lives with open arms.

In our Old Testament reading today, we heard from someone that we rarely hear from during the church year-the prophet Micah. Like John the Baptist, Micah prepared the people for the coming of the Messiah. He did so through his prophetic words. His prophecy is a vision for a life lived in the divine ...read more

Total Surrender - The Transformation Of Saul To Paul

Contributed by Dr. Jonathan Vorce on Jul 5, 2024

Have you ever wondered what "Total Surrender" looks like? Through the Saul-Paul story, we learn that true surrender involves giving up control and submitting our will, thoughts, desires, and ambitions to God.

Acts 9:1-19 Total surrender is a foundational aspect of our spiritual journey. It requires us to fully trust in God and align our hearts, desires, thoughts, and beliefs with His will. This process is not easy, but the rewards are immeasurable. One powerful example of complete surrender can be seen ...read more

Lessons From Jeremiah – Part 15 – Swifter Than Eagles The Land Will Be Scorched By Babylon Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Apr 13, 2024

Judah rejected the true message because they want to believe the lie. All actions have a consequence and the time for accountability had arrived. The human heart embraces sin so firmly it will not release it and hastens on to its own destruction. Babylon was the scorching wind.
