Jesus, Our Hero

Contributed by Craig Condon on Jul 17, 2015

Jesus calls on us today to be heroes like him. We can be heroes like Jesus by doing things such as making our beds, washing the dishes, helping our parents with chores around the house or doing things for our friends or neighbours.

Good morning boys and girls! Can anyone tell me what a hero is? A hero is someone who helps someone else, especially when the person being helped is in danger. Who are your heroes? Sometimes we like to imitate our heroes by copying the way they act or the way they dress. Have any of you ever ...read more

The Hero's Secret Strength Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jan 9, 2012

Every super hero has a secret strenth and a hidden vulnerability. Jesus, the only real superhero, has a strength to help guide Him in every situation and a vulnerability that each of us should possess.

Every superhero has a secret to their great strength, and a hidden something that some might call a vulnerability. For the Green Lantern it was the special ring he wore that gave him the ability to form things out of nothing; for Superman, Kryptonite was the only thing that stopped his superhuman ...read more

Contributed by Perry Greene on Dec 11, 2012

Be God's Super-Hero Series

Contributed by Ken Henson on Oct 8, 2016

Since God is our power, or strength, our fortress, our high tower, we can stand-and that is our role in the fight. God takes care of the rest. For us, standing is sometimes difficult. But standing is enough.

10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world ...read more

Heroes Of The Bible: Noah Series

Contributed by Scott Bayles on Feb 13, 2022

The Bible is full of heroes! They don't wear spandex or fly around in capes and cowls, but God empowered these heroes and heroines to accomplish some pretty amazing feats. Through their heroism, we can find the inspiration to become heroes of God ourselves. The first hero in our line-up is Noah.
