Jesus In The Lion's Den Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Apr 3, 2022

Let’s fast forward in time around 550 years from Daniel’s day. As we leave our time machine, we have left the ancient land of modern-day Iraq because we now find ourselves in Jerusalem. We arrive at the Mount of Olives at night, just outside the skirts of ancient Jerusalem.

Daniel’s story is in your Bible so you’ll always know hope. Hope in the Christian sense is the confident and certain expectation of future blessings and the confidence that the best is yet to come. We need a hope that a virus cannot touch. We need a hope that a divorce cannot destroy. We need a ...read more

The Infinite Greatness Of God - Part 1 Series

Contributed by Rick Crandall on Feb 19, 2021

We know that God is great... 1. Because His gifts are great (vs. 1-5). 2. Because His Word can save our souls (vs. 6-7). 3. Because His promises will come to pass (vs. 8-9).

The Blessing Of Tithing

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Feb 22, 2021

It is easy to take the credit for our success. But if we understand where all blessing comes from, we start to realize that this is something that God has granted. Then we rejoice as we give, and we are glad to show him our gratitude.

They say that it’s bad manners to bring up certain topics in public. One of these sensitive issues is money.

An Anchor For The Soul Series

Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 2, 2021

Tossed to and fro by the difficulties of persevering in the faith? What or whom do we look to for assurance and reassurance? Hebrews 6:9-20 tells us where to find an anchor for our souls.

I imagine as we come to the very middle of the Book of Hebrews it might be legitimate for any of you to ask if I’m ever tempted to quit, to just blow off the Christian life, to abandon Christ. And my answer is not so much that, though I must admit the thought has occurred to me, but always with ...read more

The Wings Of The Wind Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 9, 2021

Shakespeare was right when he said, "Ill blows the wind that profits nobody." Every wind can profit the Christian if they will, like the Psalmist, look for and see God riding on the wings of the wind.

When Columbus and his crew were being blown West by the Atlantic trade winds, one of the reasons they were so fearful was they did not know how they could get back home against the wind. Fortunately they discovered not only a new world, but new winds that carried them back to Spain. They returned ...read more
