    A look at what Christ demands of us until he returns.

    Jesus was going through Jericho on his last journey to Jerusalem. When he finally arrives, he will receive the welcome of a king as he rides triumphantly into the city of David.

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Oct 30, 2011
    based on 45 ratings
     | 19,522 views

    Contrasting the Gospel to the cultural gospel of loving yourself.

    My daughter was a little upset when I called her last week. She had gone to the traditional service at her church in Tennessee, instead of the contemporary service they usually attend. The senior pastor who is proficient in both Hebrew and Greek, and taught at the seminary level, preached on ...read more

    When God Gave A Party And Nobody Came

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Oct 24, 2011
    based on 51 ratings
     | 32,632 views

    An exegesis of the parable of the King who gave a wedding banquet for his son and people refused the invitation.

    The parable at which we are looking today comes after a series of confrontations Jesus has had with the Pharisees — the religious leaders of the day. They question whether he has the right to do the things he does and by what authority he speaks. They do not want to be a part of his ...read more

    The Will To Believe

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Sep 25, 2011
    based on 8 ratings
     | 15,543 views

    Faith is a decision, and a more reasonable decision than unbelief.

    I have always been amazed that some astronomers gazing into the vast universe find it impossible to believe in God. After all, they more than anyone else understand the vastness of space and the intricate balance that keeps it all in place. Likewise, I never could understand why scientists ...read more

    based on 17 ratings
     | 32,049 views

    A look at all of us who work in the vineyard and our attitude in our work.

    I can remember as a boy riding with my Dad into the downtown area, in my hometown of Indianapolis, Indiana, and seeing a crowd of men standing on a certain street. There were so many of them that there did not seem to be any room left to walk on the sidewalk. I asked my father what they were ...read more

    based on 14 ratings
     | 34,431 views

    Taking seriously the command of Jesus to forgive -- what it means and what it does not mean.

    A man was walking on the sidewalk outside a playground with a high wooden fence and heard the children chanting, “Thirteen! Thirteen! Thirteen!” He stopped and, finding a small hole in the fence, he bent over to look in. Just like that, a finger poked him in the eye. And the chanting continued, ...read more

    based on 8 ratings
     | 11,875 views

    What gives Jesus the right to ask us to give up our lives?

    Chuck Colson relates this interesting story in his book How Then Should We Live? “In William Steig’s Yellow & Pink, a delightfully whimsical picture book for children, two wooden figures wake up to find themselves lying on an old newspaper in the hot sun. One figure is painted ...read more

    Who Do You Say I Am?

    based on 11 ratings
     | 18,637 views

    It is not what others say who Christ is, it is what you say that matters.

    To capture the full scope of the story today we have to go back to what happened before. Luke tells us that Jesus had commissioned his disciples to preach and heal and sent them out all over Israel to carry out his mission. News of what was happening spread quickly and there was great excitement ...read more

    A look at the feeding of the 5,000 and the lessons it has for us today.

    Someone wrote a few years back: “A basketball in my hands is worth about $19. A basketball in Michael Jordan’s hands is worth about $33 million. It depends whose hands it’s in. A baseball in my hands is worth about $6. A baseball in Mark McGuire’s hands is worth $19 ...read more

    God's Hidden Kingdom

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jul 25, 2011
    based on 7 ratings
     | 9,126 views

    What God is doing is hidden. It must be searched for and we must have eyes to see. When we believe this, it changes the way we see life and how we live.

    I am one of those people who sometimes wishes that God would show his power and do something spectacular. I would like to see some fire fall from heaven, or hear God shout from his throne. It would prove to some people that he is there and that he is powerful. I wish I could lay my hands on ...read more

    An Enemy Has Done This Matthew 13:24-30 The world has been staggering from the overwhelming catastrophes that have taken place since the beginning of this year.

    Instant Christian

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jul 10, 2011
    based on 28 ratings
     | 17,619 views

    We have adapted the Christian life to the culture. We want it hot, easy, quick and effortless.

    The American people expect everything fast, easy and cheap. And we often treat the Christian life like that. We want it to be like a McDonald’s drive through — drive up to the window, get what you want and drive off. Have you noticed all the ads that tell us about the products ...read more

    based on 6 ratings
     | 11,154 views

    God hides himself from the arrogant and reveals himself to the humble, childlike people who love him.

    Imagine that you hear the roar of a car engine outside your door. As you look out, you see a red sports convertible, and in it is a young man with flowing hair and mirrored sunglasses. You can see that he is well tanned because he doesn’t have a shirt on — just shorts and flip flops. ...read more

    based on 7 ratings
     | 23,859 views

    A look at a bigger idea of God's Salvation.

    James MacDonald writes: “The church of Jesus Christ is not like a Target store. It’s not like you go, get what you came for, and then head home again. The church isn’t just about you getting what you need. It’s about you participating in what everyone needs. It is a ...read more

    Babel And Pentecost

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jun 12, 2011
    based on 5 ratings
     | 12,642 views

    A contrast between Babel and Pentecost. Pentecost undoes what happened at Babel.

    The Philadelphia Daily News reported that 46-year-old David Vassallo boarded a jetliner in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, for a flight to North Carolina. He began talking to the man seated next to him and boasted that he was an undercover federal sky marshal. The man he was talking to was quite ...read more
