    The Bible is full of heroes! They don't wear spandex or fly around in capes and cowls, but God empowered these heroes and heroines to accomplish some pretty amazing feats that can inspire us to become heroes of God ourselves. Our next hero is Daivd. (Alliterated Outline, PowerPoint Available)

    Heroes of the Bible: David Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 8/22/2021 NOTE: This sermon was adapted from my book, Holy Heroes of the Bible.

    Our Lord shows us that he often waits for us to pray our burdens to Him, before he acts. This is what our Lord wants us to do now!

    based on 6 ratings
     | 30,473 views

    Most Christians have substituted God's truth for facts. They believe facts rather than the truth of the word of God. Facts never set anyone free, truth does.

    John 8:32 'Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free'. In the first story (Mark 4:35-40), Jesus was sleeping while his disciples were worried about a raging storm; the second (Numbers 13:26-14:1) reveals the nation of Israel (save Joshua and Caleb) weeping upon discovering the ...read more
