Uses the story of Jesus' resurrection of the widow's son in Luke 7 to remind us of the joy and difficulty that can come on Mother's Day.

Since today is Mother’s Day, I thought I would begin with some possibilities for a list called “Murphy’s Laws of Parenting.” Murphy’s law is the idea that anything that can go wrong, will go wrong. So these are kind of some laws of how things can go wrong for moms or ...read more

Losing Our Inheritance

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Nov 14, 2019

Soda pop tastes good, but a diet of soda pop leaves us severely malnourished. Sermons that just complement us all the time produce stunted Christians.

Illiterate mothers saw the billboards for Orange Fanta and thought, “Oh, it must be modern. It must be healthy. It has a nice, pretty color.” When they tasted it they discovered ...read more

Hope Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 29, 2021

Peter says we are to be ready at all times to give a reason for our hope. All of the reasons for our having hope are found in God and not in ourselves.

Peter writes to Christians who are suffering persecution, and they are soon to experience the full force of the wrath of Nero. He will lash out at them in fury.
