The words from which I wish to speak to you, you will find in i Corinthians ii. 4, 5: And my... preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God." The Apostle speaks of two kinds of preaching, and, as resulting from that, of two styles of religious life in the congregation. There is a preaching in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, and there is a preaching in the wisdom of words. As a result of preaching in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, the...

Two thousand years ago, a former construction worker wanders around the back streets of a third-rate country in the Roman Empire. For a couple of years, he preaches in obscure parables. He never writes anything down. He has a handful of close disciples—all of whom run away when he is arrested. He dies in ignominious agony, nailed to a cross as a criminal. That should be the end of that sad tale.

The Psalms are so powerful. They were written to be sung or read out aloud. This rhyming version is a joy to hear and it was such a blessing to work on. My prayer is that it is also a great blessing, to all that read and listen to it - Brendan Conboy.

Jesus’ parables. They are widely known–or at least often referenced. But does that mean they are well understood? Having slipped into the lingua franca of our day, we could be missing some of what He was communicating. If familiarity breeds contempt, perhaps our sense that we know these stories insulates us from what Jesus was saying about life with God.

Every day, we all make dozens of choices that are generally directed by our own gratification and rarely do we think twice about them. However, not all the choices that we make are trivial or lost in the memory of the past. Some choices we make effect not only us but other people as well. It is those choices that really matter in life, because they are not forgotten. They shape our past, our present and our future. Those kinds of choices are what this study in God’s Word is about, when the choices in life really matter. If you decide to do this study, you will find it is one choice in ...

In many ways, the story of Job is the story of every person, because no matter who we are, at some time in life, we all suffer. The only thing that separates us is the degree of our suffering. In discussing the subject of suffering with a friend of mine, he said that for most people life’s flow is a constant series of struggles, punctuated by times of peace. I believe everyone, everywhere, at differing times of life, comes face-to-face with their own suffering. If you are not suffering now, you certainly will at some point in life, wouldn’t you like to be prepared? If your answer is yes...

God’s Word has something to say to anyone who has known the disappointment of failed expectation which leaves the gray fog of pessimism tainting your view of life. Maybe your expectations concerning marriage were dashed and you have the bitter taste of betrayal in your mouth. Perhaps the circumstances of your life are not what you hoped for, because your expectations were built on an idealism squashed by the harsh boot of reality. So, you find yourself questioning your choices and perhaps God. If that is even close to describing your broken expectations, then this is the study for you.

Along the way, they are joined...

The purpose of this mini book is to help believers develop a deeper grasp of what it means to be "in Christ", that together we might embrace this intimate oneness more fully by faith and experience more of the confidence, power, and soul-satisfying joy of the presence of our exalted Redeemer. Charles Spurgeon said it best: "There is no joy in this world like union with Christ! The more we can feel it, the happier we are, whatever our circumstances." Through the careful exposition of relevant biblical passages regarding this subject, this little book is certain to animate this joy.

"Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God" (Matthew 4:4) is one of the most familiar scriptures from the Bible today. Man shall not live by bread alone means that physical nourishment, worldly goods, and material possessions are not enough for a healthy life. We need spiritual nourishment as well. And that spiritual fulfillment is found in God's Son, Jesus!
