A Still, Small Voice Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Oct 27, 2013

Elijah is discouraged, but not for the reasons most people offer. It is popular to portray Elijah intimidated by vicious Jezebel and running scared in a cowardly retreat, yet his desert journey is not a sign of weakness.

Elijah enjoyed a triumphant showdown at Mount Carmel. As we consider the aftermath, we’re apt to focus on what appears to be weakness in Elijah. This is largely due to how this passage has been translated and interpreted. The Elijah seems to be a different man in the turn of a page. Is ...read more

Contributed by Charles Cunningham on Aug 21, 2019

Four Great Questions Of Jesus Iii: "what Do You Want Me To Do?" Series

Contributed by Charles Cunningham on Sep 7, 2019

How Does God Communicate With Us?

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on May 3, 2021

I've found that God communicates in innumerable ways. Every time I notice one way that God communicates, he changes it up. A new method appears. It's fascinating actually. God is diverse, incredibly so.

The divine designer, the architect, the crafter of the human soul is indeed present and interactive within the matrix of reality we call Earth. He is present, he is at work. Yet we cannot see him. Theologians call this the "hiddenness of God." But why is he hidden? Atheists might say ...read more

The Importance Of Teaching Bible Prophecy

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 13, 2022

The events that Jesus spoke of in Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21 are coming to pass more rapidly each day. Bible Prophecy needs to be taught in the churches, for our "Blessed Hope" is about to appear (Luke 21:28: Titus 2:11-15).

The events currently happening between Russia and Ukraine demonstrate the obvious instability of worldwide leadership, the continuous slide into debauchery, perversion, along with increasing hatred, blind rage, and violence against one another and God. Some people are even promoting the insane ...read more

God Buries His Workers, But Carries On His Work

Contributed by Ronald Moore on Nov 4, 2025

Every believer must eventually come face to face with one humbling truth: God’s work does not depend on us. He uses us, yes—mercifully, powerfully, even miraculously—but when our task is finished, He sets us down, and His work continues without pause.
