The church in Ephesus was dealing with false teachers promoting a false gospel. They were adding extra steps to the essential message by claiming that people could only be saved by abstaining from certain foods and not marrying. The Apostle Paul wrote this letter to Timothy to help him stand...

In this third episode of Gideon’s life, the enemy has been defeated, but the Gideon that we see here in chapter 8 doesn’t look much like the man that we’ve been watching over these last few weeks. Up to this point, there’s been an upward moral trajectory in Gideon’s life...

The book of Judges is a hard book. It is a violent book. This is a book that reeks of the reality of what sinful people are capable of. While it is a difficult book – it is also a GOOD book! If we can stop squirming long enough to...

If you have received the call to become a disciple of Jesus, the son of God, then do not take that lightly. Jesus has called you, and it is a tremendous honour and privilege to serve Christ and follow him! Luke 5:1-11
