In the exercise of our Christian walk, there are some things we need to quickly and some very slowly.  James hits on both speeds in this morning's discussion which helps us not to get stuck in the mud but to move forward in our Christian maturity "full strength ahead."

On this Memorial Day weekend, we look to James for a reminder as to why we should be so eternally thankful to be saved through the shed blood of Jesus.

What's your fallback plan in case faith in Jesus and obedience to His word doesn't work?  This morning, James tells us why some believers do not benefit from the trials of life -- it's because of their fallback plan.

Everyone suffers trials and tribulations whether it be the loss of a loved one or a health scare, but not everyone gleans wisdom from a time of crisis.  How can we make sure we grow through our trials?

Sometimes what we think that what is meant to take us down is actually used by God to build us up.  This morning, we look at why we should be joyful when undergoing suffering.

This morning we start a new series on the Book of James.  Before we get into the text, let's take a look at the incredible life of this man who went from being Jesus' skeptical little brother to a "pillar" of the early church.

Whom do you seek this Resurrection Sunday? Are you looking for Jesus?  If so, which Jesus?

We always celebrate Jesus' glorious entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday and His glorious resurrection on Easter Sunday, but this morning, we focus on the events that occur during the week between these two Sundays.  It's a rough week for Jesus but a great week for us.

Today is the final installment in our study of Daniel, and it ends with a bit of mystery.  

We will all stand before Jesus one day. When? For what purpose? This morning we will explore what the Bible says about our coming "Judgment Day."

In 1914, author H.G. Wells predicted that World War One would be, “The War to End All Wars.” Of course, he was totally wrong, but one day soon there will be a war that ends all wars, and it will happen right before the Second Coming of Christ.  It's often called Armageddon and we're going to explore it this morning.

Pastor David Gilbert fills in this morning with a message of hope and encouragement.

This amazing chapter of scripture features 135 fulfilled prophecies in the first 36 verses.  As we cross into verse 36, we move from prophecies fulfilled by Antiochus Epiphanes to prophecies yet to be fulfilled by Antichrist.  What can we learn about the coming ultimate Antichrist at the end of human history, and all the little antichrists who persecute the people of God in the meantime?

An angelic messenger lays out the next 400 years of Israel's future in this morning's passage before any of it comes to pass.  What does this level of accuracy and detail in the prophecies of the Bible mean for us today?

Daniel is crushed by the revelation he's receiving. It leaves him unable to speak and dis-spirited, but the angelic messenger corrects Daniel and his words to Daniel also apply to us if the vision of the future leaves us equally deflated.

Daniel is about to get his final vision, but the flurry of angelic activity before the vision is equally interesting as it gives us a glimpse into the workings of the heavenly realm as we live for God here on this earthly realm.

This morning we focus on the seventieth seven as described by Gabriel for Daniel.  What will befall Israel in the final week of her existence?  Most importantly, if the end is indeed near, how ought that shape our activity as believers?

Daniel prays for his county, his people, and God's city, Jerusalem.  Before he even finishes his prayer, God sends Gabriel to answer it, and in that answered prayer is the blueprint for Israel's future. 

The Bible tells us that if we want to see national revival and restoration, we need to pray (2 Chronicles 7:14).  If you've ever wondered what one of these prayers for a nation sounds like, we have the perfect example in today's passage.  Let's see what we can lean from it as we pray our own prayer for our nation's return to God.

If Daniel 8 sounds like a football game, then we will meet the MVP (Most Villainous Player) this morning.  Antiochus Epiphanes is the preview; Antichrist is the feature.  Let's look at how evil rulers persecuted believers in the past to better understand their tactics today and for the future.
