Throughout my years, I've encountered a lot of different people with a lot of different beliefs. While I could spend a lot of time focusing on the beliefs that are not Christian, I'd like to take a moment to focus on people who call themselves...

14Now after John was arrested, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the gospel of God, 15and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel." I could spend, quite literally, days going through...

Pastorscott is busy helping his wife with a baby on the way, but he posted this blog over at his site. It's a good one, and I figured I'd repost it here. Pay close attention, because there's some really good stuff in here. Hang on cause this...

I haven't forgotten you guys... honestly, the past couple of months have been extremely busy in what I like to call "real life". I've had to manage the installation of a large video, sound, and computer system at work. Additionally,...

12The Spirit immediately drove him out into the wilderness. 13And he was in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by Satan. And he was with the wild animals, and the angels were ministering to him. If you've ever read this study by me before, I've...

Mark 1:9-11 9 In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan. 10 And when he came up out of the water, immediately he saw the heavens opening and the Spirit descending on him like a dove. 11 And a voice came from...

I'm going to make every effort here to be non-denominational in my study of the following scripture. However, as you well know, I am a Reformed Presbyterian (PCA), and so my own beliefs may filter through. 2As it is written in Isaiah the prophet,...

The third part to our study of Mark is on the way. Unfortunately, between my computer crashing and major work issues, it's going to be later this week or next before it's done. In the meantime, give a listen to this sermon by Rev. James Mitchell...

Hi Gang, Most of you don't know me, but my prayer is that over time we will be able to, as a community sharing the common bonds of metal music, get to know one another and explore aspects of worship together. 5minutes and I go waaaay back, it's...

Mark 1:1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. (ESV) Mark is one of five Biblical books that talks about beginnings in its first sentence (the others being Genesis, John, Titus, and I John). The author makes several important statements...

Simply put, Mark is the basic, simple Gospel. In terms of timeline, Mark may not have been the earliest person to write about Jesus, but he was the first person to compile and publish those writings into a work that was ultimately accepted by the church...

We've spent quite a while talking about the downside of reality: our fallenness and the results of our fallenness. We now know that we are completely and totally seperated from God because of a problem that isn't merely bad behavior, but because...

One of the starting points in understanding the need for the Gospel is in understanding the reality of what happens if someone rejects the Gospel, because if we don't know where we're going, then we have no reason to change our course. And it's...

Before we talk much more about grace, we need to return to the Fall and to that which seperates us from God. It is undestanding this situation that is critical to us as Christians in understanding our seperation from God, the condtion of the Earth and...
