MARK 1:21-28

November 15, 2015 I once heard a speaker on the radio use an illustration that went like this: it’s as if all through the Old Testament, God and the devil were playing a chess match. God would choose a man, make His move, and the devil would counter. He, too, would choose a man, make […]

HABAKKUK 3

October 18, 2005 In the spring of 1939, the British government commissioned a series of propaganda posters to prepare their country for the threat of war. They wanted to motivate and encourage their country for the difficult days they were about to face. The Ministry of Information eventually settled on three simple designs. The first […]

HABAKKUK 1-2

October 18, 2005   Good morning. My name is Michael Talley and I’m the college pastor at ABF. If you have your Bibles today, I’d like to invite you to turn to the book of Habakkuk. No, this is not a prank: Habakkuk is, in fact, a real book of the Bible. If you’re not […]

September 20, 2015   Perhaps you’re here this morning, and you’d like to personally hear from God. You’re not alone in that desire. There are lots of people who would like to believe in God, whoever He is. If only He would appear to me, reveal Himself to me. If only we could have conversation […]

MARK 1:1

September 13, 2015   The believers had gathered in Mary’s house in Jerusalem to pray. You see, King Herod Agrippa had begun persecuting the church. He was having believers arrested and in some cases, killed. James, the brother of John, had been put to death by the sword. And when Herod saw that action pleased […]
