This short book is filled with reminders of the truth of God, the battle with evil entities, and the problem of distorted teaching in the church. It is a powder keg of explosive material, yet it provides wisdom for faithfully following Jesus. Sermon notes: https://gracepryor.sermon.net/pdf/21693356

The hope in a church fellowship is for peace among its members and opportunities to grow in the truth. Unfortunately, some people go a different direction. Church bosses or bullies move into positions of power and then become consumed with their egotism and desire to control. Those situations have been around a long time, and we find John dealing with a church boss in 3 John. We also have those who shine brightly commended in this small book, which gives us hope.

In our English Bible translations, we often see words like God, LORD, Lord, and other names when referring to the Creator and King of the universe. Have you ever wondered what the meaning is behind those words, and what the significance is of those different names? In this sermon, we will explore the Name of God and why it matters to us, for example - what it really means to take God's name in vain.

Join us as we continue our One-Hit Wonders series looking at one-chapter books of the Bible. Today we dig into 2nd John, a very short but important letter. Sermon notes: https://gracepryor.sermon.net/pdf/22407545

There are times when we are in an impossible situation. It is not what we want or deserve, but it happens. Sometimes we are betrayed, hurt, or abused. But Jesus comes along, and we find another path, possibly one we would never have decided on. That is what is happening in the very personal letter Paul sent to Philemon. We will look into this insightful letter for God's leading for today

Obadiah, the tiny Old Testament book with a message for Edom. Who is Obadiah? And who is Edom? Vengeance is mine, says the Lord, and he came to deal with Edom's evil. Can you trust the Lord to come through when you have been betrayed, mistreated, or abused? Yes, you can. Will he deal with those who do evil? Yes, he will; those in our and spiritual realms will face the Lord.

One-hit wonders, from "Spirit in the Sky" to "In the Summertime," bring a smile to our faces and a memory to mind, but the single hit did not lead the singer or band to multiple album success. There are some one-chapter books in the Bible that are short and stout. In this introduction to our One-Hit Wonders series, we are going to look at the power of Scripture.

How can we grasp the immensity of the resurrection? We find answers in Scripture. God has so much more for his own. On Sunday, the sermon is Resurrection Panorama.

How can life really be different? It is what it is. I think what I think, and I feel what I feel. That would be true apart from Jesus and the resurrection. Each person is not an end in themselves; they are not the final authority. Jesus rose from the dead, providing evidence of a higher power and highlighting that he is the truth. Because of him, people can gain a new perspective on life through the power of the resurrection. People can have hope.

Throughout human history, only one came from heaven to earth, became a man, died for the penalty of others' sins, was buried, and rose alive from death. No one is like Jesus. His resurrection verifies his truth and his promises. Jesus accomplished so much; on Easter Sunday we heard about Resurrection Radiance.
