Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "It might not be a pleasant reality, but the truth is that Christians will experience suffering at times in this life.

So listen to Scott as he opens the word once again in 1 Peter, as we conti...

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "The word \"submission\" in the Bible can leave people with a negative connotation. But that need not be. It's actually a beautiful thing when it's done God's way. Join Scott Tidwell as he discusses the biblical view of submission, and see why it's so counter cultural to live it out today."]]

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "Join Scott Tidwell as he offers practical teaching out of 1 Peter chapter 2. Peter was a witness of Christ’s sufferings (5:1); he knew that his Lord had done no sin and that He was condemned wrongfully. In word, attitude, and deed, our Lord set a perfect example for us to follow. He did not argue; He did not fight back; He did not revile His accusers after they h...

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "How do Christians live in a place, a time, a culture, that isn’t compatible with their beliefs?

Happy Easter!"]]

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "Today's talk is not for the faint of heart; we're looking at issues that don't have neat and tidy answers.\n\nJacob had some really bad qualities: He was a deceiver and manipulator.

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "God is faithful! We can trust God. He proves Himself over and over. Throughout scripture we see God coming through. Even in our own lives we can look back and see how faithful He is.\nBut we still struggle with the question \"Is God going to come through this time?\" This common insecurity is a scheme of Satan and a big problem for us because we cannot...

It is hard to wait on something or someone.\n\nThis message gives much needed...

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "The names of Sodom and Gomorrah ring in our ears as cities of debauchery and perversion. In fact the two cities were so bad that God burned them to the ground. When you read about these two cities in Genesis, the compelling part isn't their destruction, but the encounter between God and Abraham. Listen now as Pastor Scott deals with this well known scripture...

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "Listen to this message about the life of Abraham. It centers around a time that Abraham needed reminding about some Godly truths. Today God also reminds us about things, such as that He loves us, He saves us, and He makes us new and gives us a new name and identity!"]]

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "When God makes a promise He keeps it! We, on the other hand, have a problem keeping our promises. So let's be thankful that \"all of God’s promises are yes and amen\" (2 Corinthians 1:20). Join us as we look at Genesis 15 where God makes a promise to Abraham. And maybe we can learn how to respond to God's promises today!"]]
