    Why Prayer Matters

    Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Sep 17, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,341 views

    Prayer matters because it helps us to rely on God’s mercy. Prayer matters because it helps us to confess sin and ask for mercy. Prayer matters because it helps us to see God for who He is. God. And prayer matters because we honor God when we pray.

    Prayer mattered to Daniel. We’re going to take a look at some reasons why this morning and allow Daniel to show us why prayer was such an important part of his life. I’m guessing that if I were to ask folks here this morning if prayer mattered to you I would find it hard to believe ...read more

    Contributed by James Jackson on Dec 16, 2019
     | 8,543 views

    Why would God announce the Savior's birth to a group of lowly shepherds first? The answer is the heart of the gospel.

Every Christmas, there is an “it” toy. The most popular toy that everyone wants, and no one can find. These days, it is ...read more

    Telling God What To Do

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Dec 29, 2013
     | 5,082 views

    We get angry and disappointed with God, failing to see His purpose in life's hurts. We can learn to trust His will.

    Have you ever been angry at God? When people ask God to “damn” something, they’re usually making a strong point without breaking dishes. Deep down inside they’re disappointed with God, though their expletive is usually not a prayer at all. It is, however, a way of telling ...read more

    Why The Gospel Is Greater Than Miracles

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Jun 22, 2025
     | 296 views

    The Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus is amazing for a number of reasons. One reason that we will look at today is that Jesus makes a clear statement that what will bring people to Christ is not great miracles, but simply God's Word shared with them.

    Why the Gospel is Greater than Miracles Good Morning. Our lesson this morning, Jesus’ Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus, comes in response to the Pharisees having come once again to argue with Jesus. That’s a big point to the parable, the whole idea that we so much want to try to justify ...read more
