The Second Coming of Jesus
People have been trying to predict the second coming of Jesus for centuries! They’ve all been wrong! Scripture says in Mark 13:32, “…no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father,” when the Lord Jesus will come back to this earth. Join us, and we’ll see the...
-
What is the Tribulation Period?
The Bible describes a 7-year period known as the “Tribulation Period.” During these seven years, a man known as the Antichrist will rise to power. Initially, he will seem to be a charismatic peacemaker, but in the end he will become the greatest tyrant the world has ever known. Join us as we ask...
-
The Signs of the Last Days
Do you believe we are living in the “Last Days”? Scripture teaches that we are! But what will happen in those last days? Join us as we see “The Signs of the Last Days.” You might be surprised by what you learn!
-
True vs. False Religion
False teachers are notorious for being self-centered and focused on making money. That was true in Jesus’ day, as the Pharisees were known to “devour widows’ houses.” Who are the false teachers of today? Join us as we study: “True vs. False Religion."
-
Jesus, Lord of All
The greatest question any human will ever answer is: “What will you do with Jesus?” Jesus was clear when He said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life, and no one comes to the Father except through me.” Now, either Jesus was telling the truth, or He was lying. Join us as we see how Jesus…

The Greatest Commandment
Jesus was asked: “What is the greatest commandment?” Jesus answered: “To love the Lord your God with all of your heart, soul, mind, and strength.” But what does that mean, and how does it look in everyday life? Join us as we seek to live by “The Greatest Commandment.” You will be challenged in…

The Great Danger of Biblical Ignorance
There is an epidemic in our nation. Do you know what it is? “Biblical Ignorance.” Among the populace of America, there are fewer and fewer people who are even aware of the Biblical accounts of Noah and the Flood, David and Goliath, and Jesus’ death and resurrection. What’s even worse is that this...
-
How Jesus Talked to Religious Hypocrites
Jesus had to deal with some of the most egotistical, arrogant people of society…the religious elites of His day. Join us as we see “How Jesus Talked to Religious Hypocrites” as He put them in their place when it comes to paying taxes and dealing with the government. There are major lessons for us...
-
Jesus, The Cornerstone
Any builder knows the foundation of a home or building must be built square for it to be sturdy and reliably hold up the building. When building that foundation, a corner is chosen, and everything is measured from that corner. That corner is the “cornerstone.” Join us as we see why and how Jesus...
-
The Questioning of Jesus’ Authority
Who has the authority in your life? Who calls the shots? You might respond, “I do.” Well, that’s dangerous if you’re a follower of Christ. Join us as we see the enemies of Christ, the Pharisees, as they question Jesus’ authority. We’ll grow to understand why complete surrender to Christ’s…

Have Faith In God
Have you been overwhelmed lately? Between Jesus’ triumphal entry on Sunday, His ferocity in the Temple on Monday, and the widely known, murderous intentions of the religious leaders, I think it’s safe to say that the twelve were a bit on edge! When Jesus cursed the fruitless fig tree, and it...
-
Jesus Reclaims His Temple
Jesus is shown all throughout the gospels as having compassion on the lost and on the crowds. One of the few exceptions was when He reclaimed His temple from those who had misused and misrepresented the name of “God’s people” for too long.
-
The Lesson of the Fig Tree
How much faith do you have? The nation of Israel rejected Jesus, showing their lack of faith. As a picture of that rejection, Jesus cursed a fig tree because it had no fruit. Join us as we see “The Lesson of the Fig Tree” and the fact that the Christian life is about bearing fruit in keeping with...
-
False Praise and Jesus’ Triumphal Entry
When Jesus rode a donkey into Jerusalem, it was described as the “Triumphal Entry.” The people were looking for a King to overthrow Rome and set up His kingdom. They praised Jesus, shouting: “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.” But everything changed in a matter of days.…
more -
The Mercy of Jesus
When was the last time the power went out at night in your home and you had to grope around looking for a flashlight to turn on some light so you could see? That’s a disconcerting feeling. For a man named Bartimaeus, this was his life. Yet, Jesus had mercy on him and gave him back his sight. But...
-
Greatness Defined
We live in a day and age where everyone wants to be seen. Some call it the “Age of the Selfie.” However, the kingdom of Jesus is an upside-down kingdom where being great is defined as something the world hates: humility. Join us as we see “Greatness Defined” by our Lord Jesus. It’s not what you...
-
Amazed and Afraid: Faith Overcomes Fear
The trials and temptations of life give us the opportunity to grow our faith in God by running to Him. In these situations, if we are not grounded in our faith, we can become fearful and run from our Creator. Join us as we explore practical ways to overcome fear while we follow the path God has…
more -
The Problem with Stuff
“The Problem with Stuff” is that we often don’t possess it—it possesses us! Even the blessings God gives us can become a hindrance to obeying Him if we’re not careful. Join us as we discuss this problem and learn how to overcome it.
-
Come As a Child
A baby, an infant, a toddler, and even a young child are helpless in many ways. As their parent, there is a dependency, a trust, a faith that they place in us to protect them and give them what they need. Jesus uses this example to show us how we must come to him for our greatest need. Join us as...
-
A Biblical Understanding of Marriage and Divorce
There is so much confusion in our culture today about what marriage is and what are the biblical conditions for divorce. Join us as we seek to gain a “Biblical Understanding of Marriage and Divorce.” We’ll erase the confusion that has been created in many minds by seeing what Jesus said about...
-
Overcoming Sin
Let’s say you've been diagnosed with cancer and the surgeon says, "I can get all of it or leave some of it." What would you prefer the surgeon to do? Obviously the answer is: GET IT ALL. The same is true of sin. We should want the Holy Spirit to cleanse us from all sin, just like a surgeon…
more -
Jesus Answers: Who Is the Greatest?
Who are the people in your life whom you would consider “great”. Most likely, it would be people who have invested in your life, sacrificed for you, and loved you in times of difficulty. Unfortunately, for the Apostles of Jesus, they had this understanding totally backward about “Who is the...
-
All Things Are Possible
Facing something that looks impossible? Do you feel like there’s a situation in your life that can't be fixed or is unattainable? Jesus specializes in what looks to be impossible. Join us as we see: “All Things Are Possible,” and you’ll be encouraged in your life, and you’ll see that there is…
more -
The Glory of Jesus
Have you ever seen something so magnificent and profound that you were left speechless? That was Peter, James, and John on the Mount of Transfiguration when they saw Jesus wrapped in glory. That event changed their lives forever, and it would carry them through many difficult days ahead. Join us…
more -
Losing Your Life to Gain It
Do you know what an “oxymoron” is? It’s when you say something that’s contradictory. Like, “Momma, this apple pie is ‘awful good.’” Now, here in the south, we know that you mean that your mom’s pie is excellent! Yet, the term “awful good” is an oxymoron. Jesus often spoke in this way. He said…
more -
Peter Gets It Right, Then Wrong
The Apostle Peter had a personality that was bold and courageous, and also temperamental and hasty. Perhaps no truer example of that can be found than in Mark’s Gospel. Peter goes from proclaiming Jesus as the Christ, the Anointed Son of God, to being told by Jesus, “Get behind me, Satan.” What...
-
Spiritual Blindness
Spiritual blindness keeps people in spiritual darkness. They lack any true understanding of God and who Jesus truly is. What is needed to dispel darkness? You're right! Light! Join us as we examine the reason for spiritual blindness and the one who can bring light to that condition!
-
Jesus Provides When It Seems Impossible
Jesus feeds the 4,000. Wait a second? Didn’t He already do that? Not exactly! In fact, when you look a little closer, you find that this meal from Jesus communicated something very special to those in this crowd and to us.
-
Jesus Heals a Deaf Man
No one has ever shown greater compassion on this earth than Jesus Christ. After all, He gave His life for those who would call on Him, repenting of their sins, to save them. Join us as we see Jesus' compassion for a man who was deaf and couldn’t speak. This is an astounding story of hope and...
-
Easter: The Story of Passover Through Jesus
When Jesus came to this earth, He came for one reason: “To seek and save that which is lost.” To do that, He gave His life on the cross and proved He was the Son of God by rising from the dead. And all of this was pictured by something the Children of Israel did centuries earlier when they left...
-
The Faith of a Broken-Down Woman
Jesus encountered many people during His time on earth, but there was one lady who wouldn’t take “no” for an answer. She had a sick daughter and begged Jesus to help her. Jesus hesitated. Why? Join us as we see “The Faith of a Broken-Down Woman.” You’ll be strengthened in your faith as you see…
more -
What Defiles a Person
When we think of something that’s dirty, we think of something we can touch or eat that might make us dirty or harm us, but Jesus says that what defiles a person isn’t something that’s outside them. Rather, it comes from inside! Join us as we see “What Defiles a Person.”
-
Jesus Blows Up Twisted Traditions
The Jewish religious leaders became the enemy of Jesus because He was attacking their traditions and “the way they’d always done it.” It’s like changing the color of the carpet in the church…that’s probably not going to make everyone happy. Join us as we see how “Jesus Blows Up Twisted…
more -
Jesus Walks on Water
One of the most well-known miracles of Jesus is the account of Him walking on water. In fact, all four Gospels record this miracle. It’s that significant. Why? Join us as we see the significance of when: “Jesus Walks on Water.” You will be encouraged and inspired!
-
Jesus Provides: The Feeding of the 5,000
We all know the story of Jesus feeding the 5,000. It is a miraculous account for sure! Jesus made enough bread and fish out of a boy’s meal to feed thousands. But is there more to the story? Yes! It’s an account of faith and trust for the Apostles, and for us! Join us as we see the feeding of the...
-
The Tragedy of Having It All, But Missing Jesus
What a sad, twisted story! John the Baptist was killed because of pure spite and hatred. His death is another example that faith in Jesus doesn’t mean our lives will be easy. However, Jesus is faithful, and what Satan may seek for harm can be turned to good. Join us as we see the hand of God in...
-
Ordinary, Yet Extraordinary, the Call of Jesus
Jesus trained The Twelve (the Apostles) for about a year before He sent them out two by two to share His message. His instructions to them before they leave seem strange: take no extra clothes, money or food. How will they survive? The ministry has now shifted for The Twelve to total faith and...
-
The Astonishing Rejection of Jesus
We know that Jesus “came to His own, and His own received Him not.” Not only was that true of His town of Nazareth, but also the nation of Israel. Jesus was rejected by His own people to the point that He couldn’t do many mighty works because of their unbelief. That could easily be us. We can...
-
When All Seems Lost, Turn to Jesus - Part 2
All seemed lost for the Synagogue Ruler. While he waited with Jesus to help a poor woman with her troubles, his daughter died. It’s no use! “Don’t bother the Teacher,” his friends said. Yet, Jesus said, “Keep on believing.” The man did, and Jesus raised his little girl from the dead. Never forget...
-
When All Seems Lost, Turn to Jesus - Part 1
Are you in a hopeless situation in your life right now? Do your circumstances seem insurmountable? Well, take heart! Jesus specializes in situations that seem impossible. Join us as we see Part 1 of “When All Seems Lost, Turn to Jesus,” as He is on His way to heal a little girl when He’s suddenly...
-
The Power of Jesus Over Demons
We know Jesus is all-powerful! He can boldly make that claim because He has the power over life and death, because He rose from the grave. But He also has power over the world we can’t see with our eyes. What world is that? The world of demons and angels. Join us as we see: “The Power of Jesus…
more -
Jesus in the Storm
God reveals His divine plan for our lives, but so often, the way He accomplishes it looks nothing like we expect. The storms of life seemingly threaten to upend His plan, but the storms are actually part of the plan, and God goes through it with you. Join us and be encouraged as we see “Jesus in...
-
Three Questions about the Manger
Join us as we ask and answer: “Three Questions about the Manger.” #1 Did Jesus exist before He was born in Bethlehem? (Hint: Yes. We’ll tell you why.) #2 What did Jesus have to do to come to this earth as a baby? (Hint: Set aside His glory and become one of us.) #3 What did He stand to gain by...
-
How to Listen to Jesus
Sometimes it’s hard to know if the Lord is speaking to us, or if we’re just hearing our own voices in our heads. Yet, Jesus said, “My sheep know me, and they recognize my voice.” Join us as we see: “How to listen to Jesus” as He speaks through three parables recorded in the Gospel of Mark and how...
-
The Four Types of Human Hearts
Scripture, the Bible, refers to the heart many times. The majority of those times, it is speaking about our soul, and not the physical heart that pumps blood through our body. As the Gospel is proclaimed, there are four responses that people can make. Therefore, we could say four types of human...
-
Thanksgiving in America
You know the phrase, “One nation under God.” You know the phrase “All men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator.” Just who is this God? This Creator? As you ponder, answer this: “Whom do we give thanks to at Thanksgiving?” The answer to all of those questions is this: Yahweh,...
-
Who is Jesus' Family?
Did you know Jesus had four brothers and at least two sisters? He sure did! The Bible is clear on that in Luke 8:2-3. Yet, they didn’t believe He was the Son of God. In fact, they thought He was crazy! What does it mean to be part of Jesus’ family? Join us as Jesus explains who His family really is.
-
The Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit
Do you know what it means to “blaspheme the Holy Spirit?” Is it taking the Lord’s name in vain? Is it cursing the Holy Spirit? Well, there are many questions and several schools of thought on this question. Join us as we see what Jesus described as “The Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit.”
-
The Twelve Apostles
It’s often been said, “Jesus changed the world with a handful of men.” It’s true that Jesus chose 12 Apostles to entrust the Gospel to and see that it was spread throughout the world. And here we are today! It worked! Join us as we see how Jesus chose the 12 Apostles and how that applies to His...
-
Jesus: A Summary of His Ministry
What does Jesus want for you? One word: Believe. Jesus wants you to believe that He is the Son of God. He wants you to believe that and then act upon it and become His follower. Are you a follower of Jesus? Many claim to be, but aren’t. Jesus said: “They honor me with their lips, but their hearts...
