Why Am I The Underdog

Contributed by Pablo Catala on Sep 3, 2019

Your not done

God often allows the ungodly to amass great wealth--to their destruction.

Why I Quit Tithing

Contributed by Doug Fannon on Sep 23, 2019

Because God owns it all, the question should not be, "How much should I give?" But rather the question should be, "How much should I keep?"

Most people simply don’t understand tithing. To many Christians, it seems like some sort of country club due. Another bill in the long list of monthly expenses. I hear questions like: “How Much Are You Supposed to Tithe?” “Do I tithe on my gross income or net income?” “My pay my tithe on my pay ...read more

Why Read The Old Testament?

Contributed by Robert Butler on Oct 3, 2019

By Rejecting the Authority of all the scriptures, we display the root of our sin.

Why Is Old Covenant Obsolete? Series

Contributed by Paul Clemente on May 20, 2019

We say we are Christians and Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior, why do we allow anything (rituals, religions, entertainment, other people, etc....) take more time and focus than Christ, our New Covenant?

Let’s worship our God by listening to His Word. God’s word is Truth and the Truth will set us free. Our Lord Jesus Christ also said “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the fullest!” Our lives can be full if we trust Jesus Christ as our only Savior and God and listen and follow ...read more

Why Do The Nations Rage? Series

Contributed by Doug Fannon on Jan 1, 2019

Preached on the Sunday Following Christmas. King Herod tried to kill the Child Jesus and he is just the tip of the iceberg. All the nations of the world and people without Jesus are in rebellion against God. Why are they in rebellion and what is God reaction to them?

This is the final message on the “Why’s of Christmas” and perhaps the more difficult to understand. We explored “Why Christmas?” a month ago. Why Jesus had to come and His purpose in coming was to die for our sins. This is why we will be observing the Lord’s Supper today, the last Sunday of the ...read more

Why Do Christians Suffer?
