“The Word: Written Down and Made Flesh”
Steven A. Bush
God’s Word is never old fashioned or culturally irrelevant. It’s always spot on and it often reveals where we’re way off. That’s not only true now, but also down through the ages…
“Be Filled with the Spirit”
Mark B. Thogmartin
Having the Holy Spirit living inside is the mark of a Christian, and being filled with the Spirit is something God commanded for those who wish to live a victorious and fulfilling Christian life.
“Did You Bring Your Umbrella?”

“People of the Book”
Mark B. Thogmartin
The Word of God is how we know about God’s requirements for holy living and about how Jesus Christ came to save those who believe. To be People of the Book, we must accept God’s word as inspired, inerrant, infallible, and relevant.
“God’s Judgment In Time and Space”
Mark B. Thogmartin
Solomon, in Proverbs chapter 8, makes it clear that God is the sovereign creator of the heavens and the earth. The world was created in wisdom, and when we ignore the wisdom of God, we “injure ourselves” (Proverbs 8:36).

“Shucking Us Down To The Cob V”
Steven A. Bush
This message, which could have been first in the “Cob” series, is all about how we revere, value, adhere to, and seek to build everything on the foundation of the Word of God. Martin Luther gave us the Latin term, Sola Scriptura, which means “Scripture alone.” We believe the Bible is the final authority for […]
