The Remarkable Rainbow Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 9, 2021

I never realized how many rainbows there are in the world, until our trip to the West Coast. We would get up early to travel before the Sun came up. When it did come up it was at out back, and it was at just the right angle when we went past the irrigation systems. The light of the Sun hit that ...read more

Cedar, Hyssop, And National Security

Contributed by David Western on Nov 19, 2025

Just as a general once showed me a car I thought was spotless still carried an odor, Leviticus 14 reminds us that God sees what we cannot—and through cedar, hyssop, and scarlet, He reveals the only cleansing that reaches the heart.

“Get Me a Car That Doesn’t Stink”** When I was a captain at the Air Force Academy, I had the honor—and the anxiety—of escorting General Hornburg, the ACC Commander, during a visit for Corona. That was when all the generals came together for a high-level meeting, and it was the kind of event where ...read more

The Kingdom Of God: "Humanity’s Only Hope”

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Aug 4, 2024

The Bible has always had a word and it always has had the last word, and that’s because it’s God’s word. And the Bible, God’s word tells us exactly what humanity’s only hope is. It is being brought into the Kingdom of God by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. Come and discover the full story.

The Reality Of Hell

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 21, 2022

The Bible speaks about a real place called hell, and it’s a place where many people will unfortunately go when they die. But some individuals reason that hell is contradictory to God’s love and mercy and should not be preached.

I have entitled our message this morning “The Reality of Hell.” Hell is a topic that tends to be avoided in a lot of churches and by a lot of pastors today. One person has accurately identified the perception of hell today when he said, “Since the days of fiery sermons from Puritan preachers like ...read more
