    A Call To Harvest

    Contributed by Chris Blackshaw on Jul 5, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,639 views

    We must work hard to tell others about God then we will reap our reward in Heaven.

    The Harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. This is a powerful piece of scripture that just seemed to jump out of the page at us. To me it speaks volumes. To me it says there is a lot of work to be done but not many of us wanting to do it. When I was a young lad on our family farm the ...read more

     | 4,114 views

    Marriage is suppose to be a great, blissful, time between husband and wife, yet all to often we allow for our wedlock to look more like a dreadlock. So what does God have to say about this.

    Keeping the Home Fire Burning Series FROM DREADLOCK TO WEDLOCK Eph. 5:22-33 Intro A marriage, especially a Christian one is supposed to be a thing of intense beauty, love and joy.

    The Godly Portrait Of Marriage, Pt. 3

    Contributed by Dave Kinney on Sep 20, 2008
    based on 17 ratings
     | 3,771 views

    The reason submission is so important for a wife is because of this key: The wife who willingly submits to her husband’s leadership glorifies God.

    “Sweet Surrender” Let me sum up the perfect picture for marriage again: God wants each marriage to be a portrait of His love for His glory! Romans 11:36 “For of Him and through Him and to Him are all things, to whom be all the glory forever.” Well, I knew today’s sermon was going to the hardest ...read more

    Antiochus IV Epiphanes was the eighth in a succession of twenty-six kings who ruled from 175—164 BC over the Syrian section of Alexander’s empire and is undoubtedly one of the greatest prototypes of the Antichrist in all of God’s Word.

He is referred to as the “little horn” in Daniel 8:9. The name Epiphanes means the “Illustrious One,” although his contemporaries nicknamed him ...read more

    God calls us from our sychamore tree and requests residence in our hearts.

    Text: When Jesus reached the spot, he looked up and said to him, “Zacchaeus, come down immediately. I must stay at your house today” (Luke 19:5). In my mind, I picture Zacchaeus as being about 5 feet tall with dark hair, a little goatee, average size nose, thick eyebrows, medium to dark brown ...read more

    Freedom For The Captives Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 7,708 views

    Paul's whole plea to Philemon is to act the way the loving Father acted: to welcome home the beloved son; to restore him to fellowship with the family. There will be, and have been, occasions when we'll be called to respond to wrongdoers the same way.

    There's something quite different about reading this letter compared with all Paul's other letters. In all the others, even those addressed to individuals, the focus is on the Church where they're ministering. But here there's a much more personal feel to the correspondence. You can feel the warmth ...read more

    It was inevitable that with the unprecedented growth the church of Jerusalem experienced, conflict and problems would arise. But the disciples acted speedily, and in the process established the principle of shared ministry, which brought even more growth.

    Problems and Prosperity Acts Series Chuck Sligh June 14, 2015 TEXT: Turn please in your Bibles to Acts 6.
