Teach Us To Pray Series

Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Aug 11, 2024

The Lord's Prayer is an integral part of our prayer life and its so easy to take it for granted - to say it without thinking what we are saying or thinking. The Lord's Prayer was the result of the disciples asking Jesus to teach them to prayer.

Sometimes we have unpleasant things we have to do. Awkward situations we would rather avoid. People we would rather not meet. Tasks we put aside and hope that they will go away. One such task is writing a difficult letter – to a friend or relative who has recently been bereaved. Where do you ...read more

The Existence And Presence Of Almighty God, Part 1

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 16, 2023

The presence and personal interest of God in the affairs of His creation is evident to those who have eyes to see (Romans 1:18-22). He gives us proof of His existence, regardless of the world's blindness to the obvious.

As the days draw nearer to the promised return of the Lord Jesus Christ (John 14:1-3; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; Titus 2:11-15), we are told in Scripture that humanity will not welcome Him with open arms, but will instead grow more hateful towards Him, doing everything possible to resist His ...read more

The Master Carpenter

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Aug 24, 2022

I would like to draw your attention to the section of the Bible that tells us that Jesus was a carpenter. We do not hear many sermons highlighting this part of the Lord’s life.

However, most of Christ’s adult life on earth was spent as a carpenter. We read about the last three-and-a half years Jesus spent on earth in Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. In their accounts we read that He went everywhere preaching, teaching, and doing miracles. In those three-and-a-half years ...read more

Have You Forgotten God?

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Nov 26, 2005

The Greatest Ruler Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 15, 2021

This is an impressive amount of evidence that supports the conviction that Jesus is the greatest ruler in the universe. He governs the universe from this position of equality with God the Father.

We are ahead of our time when we bow to Jesus, for one day every knee will bow and every tongue confess him as Lord of Lords and King of Kings.
