    Like Jesus, Lazarus would die and rise again. Jesus knew the reason for his sickness, and he knew the outcome. But still, he wept. Why?

    Eyes of Jesus In one of her short stories, writer Annie Dillard has a scene in which a family is sadly gathered at a grave to commit a loved one's body to the earth. At one point, the minister reads the familiar words from I Corinthians 15, "Where, O Death, is thy sting?" Upon ...read more

Then I was very much afraid.” A) BURDEN FOR SOULS B) FAVOR COMES WHEN YOU OBEY GOD AND STICK TO HIM AND HIS PLANS C) WHEN THE RIGHT TIME ...read more

    Truly Following Jesus Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Aug 18, 2025
     | 339 views

    There are a variety of reasons why some people follow Jesus - some for benefits, some to slander, some to argue, some bandwagon followers, but what does it take to be a true follower of Jesus?

    It seems like nearly every week I run into people who have some sort of faith. They say that believe in Jesus or at least call themselves Christians, but don’t attend a church. Their faith is very personal, private, and even comfortable. They choose to follow Jesus on their terms, as long as He ...read more

    Why Christ came me seem absurd, but it is because God loves us.

    First Baptist Church December 24, 2001 Christmas Eve When one of his speaking engagements ended, Landon Saunders would always take questions from the audience.

    Sacrifice Of The Father

    Contributed by John Raulerson on Sep 28, 2006
     | 4,848 views

    Although some my consider salvation free, it came at a high personal sacrifice to the Father.

    THE PERSONAL SACRIFICE OF THE FATHER 3/05 John 3:16 I hear many times and even have said it myself that “Salvation is free, ” but I am concerned this statement can be a little misleading. It come at a tremendously high price. The free gift to the recipient comes at a high sacrifice to giver. I. ...read more

    Why Is Old Covenant Obsolete? Series

    Contributed by Paul Clemente on May 20, 2019
     | 3,286 views

    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

    The Unstoppable Invitation Of Jesus Christ Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Oct 23, 2024
     | 990 views

    Jesus pops up to speak in the middle of everyone on a major holiday with seemingly nowhere to go. Why would He risk His life? Why would He place Himself in such a dangerous position? Jesus risks everything to give us a gift that changes everything.

    Have you heard someone say, “I wouldn’t bet the farm on that if I were you?” There are many things in life we CANNOT count on. You CANNOT count on a politician’s promise. You CANNOT count on the weatherman’s forecast. And you cannot count on the pastor when he says, “I’ll be just one more minute.” ...read more

    Love-Why? Who? How?

    John 13 verses 31-35 2007 I like it when the Bible keeps things simple. “I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another.” That’s it! One command! How much easier does it get? A little girl writes in her letter at Sunday ...read more

    Jesus came to free us from the slavery to sin through faith, through faith in what He taught, and through faith in Him as a person.

    Thursday of 29th Week in Course Lumen Fidei Jesus was a very serious Savior. If you were a government official and happened upon a prison where several thousands of persons were enslaved under abysmal conditions, you’d want to free them. Now before Christ, we were slaves of sin. I know ...read more

    Telling God What To Do

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Dec 29, 2013
     | 5,204 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
