Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 30, 2023

Contributed by Samuel M on Apr 30, 2024

The widow gave to the worldly treasury; when we give our two mites (out of poverty with sacrifice), we give to the heavenly treasury and the Kingdom of God.

A Tale Of Two Kinds Of Wisdom Series

Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Sep 3, 2024

James focuses on the leaders of the church as he calls into question the source of wisdom - essentially noting that wisdom from God is drastically different than wisdom of the world.

Some impact only us (or so we think), where others reap ramifications on our families, church, workplaces, school, community, and more. ...read more

Sermon # 45 - The Two Sons Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 19, 2025

Abraham had two sons, one born according to the flesh and the other according to God’s promise. Both of them were in complete contrast to each other. It is not enough if we are born according to the flesh, because the Lord demands that we are born again through the Holy Spirit.

For today’s meditation we will look at Galatians 4:22-23, “Scripture says that Abraham had two sons, one by a woman who was a slave and the other by a free woman. Now, the son of the slave woman was conceived in a natural way, but the son of the free woman was conceived through a promise [made to ...read more
