  • God Heals Naaman

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Aug 23, 2020
     | 3,213 views

    The story of God healing Naaman is full of lessons, for example, about opportunity, courtesy, humility, and greed. But the key message must be the one Jesus drew from it. That is, that if we wish to see God's miracles, we must accept his word.

    NAAMAN’S HEALING We’re continuing in our series ‘Bible Stories for Grown-Ups.’ Today we’re looking at one of the most famous stories in the Book of Kings. It’s the story of the healing of the Syrian general, Naaman. It’s a great story for Sunday School, because one of the key characters is a ...read more

  • Open My Eyes, Lord

    Contributed by Melvin Newland on Jun 24, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,717 views

    Watching & praying are often associated in the Bible. Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, asked his Disciples to watch & pray with him as he prayed in the Garden at Gethsemane. I think Jesus was asking them more than simply to stay awake & pray.

    MELVIN NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK TEXT: Colossians 4:2-6; 2 Kings 6:8-23 Colossians 4:2-6 “Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful & ...read more

    The longer the Lord’s delay, the more time there is for repentance.

    THE PATIENCE OF THE LORD. 2 Peter 3:8-15a. 2 PETER 3:8. Peter wishes to emphasize to his “beloved” friends that the longer the Lord’s delay, the more time there is for repentance. To the LORD a thousand years are but as a day when it is past (cf. Psalm 90:4). Yet He stretches out the day of ...read more

  • Open Doors

    God opens and closes doors daily and annually. With the New Year come open doors of opportunity.

    Open Doors 1 Corinthians 16:5-9 1. Alexander Graham Bell: “When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.” We must look for it. We don’t always recognize it. [Far Side Push-Pull 2. As we end ...read more

  • What Do You Crave? What Does God Crave? (James 4:1-10) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jul 5, 2022
     | 1,640 views

    The verses make best sense through non-Western eyes, in a non-Western church. So talked about an African church plant. Also, on how/when to ask God for money.

    Today's passage, James 4:1-10, was a real struggle for me at first. These verses, read as a whole, read as a response to a specific problem within the church, really don't make sense within the context of Western, white, evangelical Christianity. The way we tend to view the church, and ...read more

  • Three Crosses On A Hill: A Study In Evangelism

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Nov 6, 2022
     | 1,507 views

    When we preach about the sacrifice of Jesus Christ for our sins upon the cross, we forget that there were also two men crucified on crosses next to Him. Each man had the opportunity to look to Jesus for grace and mercy. Their response determined their eternal destiny.

    The agony of the crucifixion and the final hours of Jesus are recorded in all four gospels, each written with their own unique perspective of what happened that dark day (Matthew 27; Mark 15; Luke 23; John 19). Each one tells of the jeering, mockery, contempt, and seething hatred towards the ...read more

     | 4,244 views

    Amid the many crisis of today, that are causing so much loss and pain, it is wonderful to know that God is still at work. Although, we cannot choose how the works of God, the method God will use to supply the help we need. The good news is that God is still in charge and will help.
