Grotesque, morbid, unsightly... those words describe something that is at the very heart of Christianity. It’s something that is preached and taught about all the time in the Christian faith. I’m talking about Christ’s crucifixion. And while some may find it too brutal, or think it unnecessary... because of our sin, it is essential to our very salvation. For wherever the cross disappears, true Christianity also disappears. To support this ministry financially, visit:...

Peter was a big disciple. He was the first disciple to trust Christ with his life. He left his career and followed God. But even Peter denied Christ... not once but three times! But thankfully Jesus Christ did not abandon Peter. He picked him up after he had fallen, set him back on his feet, and encouraged him to continue to grow in his faith. And the good news is that this same encouragement is available to us when we stumble. To support this ministry financially, visit:...

A bicycle wheel will not function properly if its spokes do not meet in the center of the wheel. We must always remember to keep the Lord at the center of our lives. Our spiritual walk will become wobbly and imbalanced if we begin to follow our way and relegate God to the periphery of our lives. How can you learn to center your life in Jesus Christ and enjoy the richness of intimate fellowship with Him? To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/581/29

There is diversity in unity. While that statement sounds oxymoronic, it is very true of Christ’s body, the church. God has given every Christian a gift that, when used rightly, contributes to the oneness of the body and to His glory. Join Dr. James Boice on The Bible Study Hour as he describes the grace gifts God gives to His people and their ultimate purpose.

At this point in Isaiah, the prophet addresses the leaders of God’s people, chastising them for their failure to lead with wisdom and zeal.

The Bible teaches that the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ are the most significant events in human history. The reason Jesus rose from the dead was to conquer sin and death once and for all. That sounds like critical information for all of us to hear. But the question you might be asking is this: Is what the Bible says about Jesus really true? Did Jesus of Nazareth actually come back to life? To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/581/29

There’s no mention of the church in the Old Testament and in fact, the word, church is used rather infrequently in the New (Testament). But the word body on the other hand is used often because it reflects what the church really is.

I need just a little peace and quiet. That’s something we’ve all said on occasion. It may seem innocent enough, but the truth is, deep down inside, we all long for peace... in our relationships, at our workplace, in our families. Often these areas of our lives have very little peace, even though we may work hard at it. The problem is, real, genuine peace in our lives only comes after we make peace with God.

When the Israelites jouneyed from Egypt to the promised land, God went with them ro lead them on their way. He went before them by night in a pillar of fire and by day in a pillar of cloud.

The times we live in are difficult, some might even say tumultuous. If you look around you can find much to be afraid about...the economy, current world affairs, wars.

The world’s will for us, based on the world’s thinking sounds right and reasonable at face value: money equals happiness, success is the path to satisfaction, what makes me feel good must be right. Alternatively, God’s will for our lives doesn’t sound quite so attractive: humility, sacrifice, and service to others.
