Samson: Dealing With Fatal Flaws Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jul 16, 2018

Samson’s feats are legendary but it’s his flaws that prove to be fatal. His two greatest weaknesses were revenge and romance. In fact, his weakness for women often led him on the road to revenge. He was extremely gifted, but certainly not godly.

The Glory In Resurrection Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jan 23, 2019

As the women made their way to the Garden Tomb, their lives were filled with uncertainty. There were more questions than answers. Their hopes and dreams were shattered, buried with Jesus three days ago. However, when they arrived at the tomb, hope was provided through the resurrection!

The Glory in Resurrection Mark 16: 1-8 It had been a difficult time for those who loved and followed Jesus. The disciples and the faithful women were aware of His death upon the cross. No doubt their minds were filled with unanswered questions – what will we do now; where do we go from here; is ...read more

Contributed by Odon Bulamba on Nov 26, 2013

After feeding 5,000 men without counting women and children, Jesus asked His disciples to collect the leftovers. What for? Although children were not counted among the 5,000, this youngster (child) food (fish and breads) fed the crowd.

John 6:12 Let us read the Word of God together in Jesus' name! How much did you pay to God for giving you the air that you breathe today?

When God Spoke Through An Ass

Contributed by Jeffery Russell on Dec 6, 2007

Don’t Worry, its not what you think. The Biblical (KJV) word for donkey is often a synonym for a fool. But as we will find, Balaam’s talking donkey was more wise than he was, and wiser than some we may meet.

Psalms 1:1 – Unfriending Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Jan 7, 2017

Does the experience of joy really depend on who I befriend? Who is really wise enough to discern when advice is malicious and wicked? Who is able to recognize when they are keeping the wrong company? How do I detect the traps of cynicism and mockery?

Psalms 1:1 – UNFRIENDING “Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers.” GO TO THAT PERSON’S PROFILE If David was on facebook he would have unfriended them. Brothers Abishai and Joab are as wicked ...read more

Showcase For Saints Or Hospital For Sinners?

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Feb 19, 2022

There is a temptation for us to put on our best front in church, a false front, and to especially welcome those who looked really good. But Jesus saw the church as especially for those who don't have it together and we will be wise to follow him.

When I was a boy, my mother used to tell us to be careful about the friends we picked. If you pick a study partner at school who doesn’t want to do school work, you won’t get much done.
