I Am The Light Of The World Series

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Jul 11, 2021

When we believe in Christ, the Light of the World, He delivers us from the darkness. The darkness is still there, and it’s still deadly, but it cannot overcome the light of the Lord.

Look! Who Is Coming To Dinner? John 12, Part 1

Contributed by Jay Yousling on Dec 29, 2020

The Power Of The Cross Series

Contributed by Scott Turansky on Jan 1, 2023

The power of the cross is so great that we've chosen to make this cross the emblem. We look at that cross and we don't just think about death, we think about life.

Those are great stories. I can imagine the Jewish young men growing up, the disciples themselves ...read more

What is the rock and wave of evangelism? This is a framework of how to function as light in a world of darkness. Jesus told his followers that “You are the light of the world.” (Matthew 5:14) Let’s take a deeper dive into that: 14 “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be ...read more
