Like the Pharisees, Herod was a religious hypocrite. He believed himself to be the likely Jewish Messiah. But, like many religious people today, Herod (who was not a Pharisee or a Sadducee) was a fakeasee!! We would do well to examine our own hearts and decern between the things we do that come from authentic relationship with Jesus and those things we do merely for show.

In this lesson we learn about two kingdoms--the Kingdom of God and the kingdom of this world.
These two kingdoms employ completely different laws. The teachings of this world lead to death and destruction, the kingdom of God offers truth and life.
When we begin a new life in Christ, we must learn to walk in the laws and principles of our new citizenship.
We are children of God living by the principles of our Father's Kingdom even while we are still here on Earth. To the world around us, it may seem odd. It may seem strange--it's an upside-Down Kingdom. Read the rest of this entry »
We have been looking at God’s timeline for dealing with mankind and the sin problem. It is interesting to explore the history and culture in which biblical events occurred.
The birth and crucifixion of Jesus were the MAIN events. All previous events were designed to prepare mankind for this moment in time.
In this lesson, we begin a look at the life and reign of “Herod the Great.” From the background, culture and attitudes of this one man, we can learn everything we need to know about the times in which Jesus was born.
It is also interesting to note how similar those times were to the attitudes of today.
We recommend the following music to go with your lesson time together:. Read the rest of this entry »
The true cost of embarking on a walk of faith and following Jesus is examined in this lesson. What did it cost Abram and the disciples? What will it cost us? Faith is about what we cling to. We cannot cling to God, unless we let go of everything else. Read the rest of this entry »

Is the church itself becoming a strange land? Read the rest of this entry »

Video Lesson #11 – God’s Timetable, pt. 5
Wise Men Still Fear Him!
Because God’s timetable is so exact, it can lead to a fearful realization that we are drawing closer and closer to some very powerful prophetic events, such as the second coming of Christ.
Indeed, those who lived in the centuries before Christ’s first coming also had reason to fear the truths in those prophecies. In this lesson, we learn that, while Jesus is to be feared, He is, at the same time-LOVE ITSELF! Read the rest of this entry »
Joseph didn’t seem like much when his brothers tried to kill him and then sold him into slavery. Little did they know they would one day be begging him to save their whole family. If we reject Jesus, He will let us, but we are rejecting the only one who can save us from our sins. Read the rest of this entry »
In this sermon, we examine how human pride can gradually seep into our work for Christ and morph us into Nimrods rather than Abrahams. We are called to emulate the Abrahamic walk. With Jesus as our example and keeping Him in our sights, we can remind ourselves as often as needed, "Don't Be a Nimrod!"

When Moses brought Pharaoh God's message requiring him to set the children of Israel free, his immediate response was arrogant and defiant. He felt strongly that God had no authority over the affairs of his life. He jeered: “Who is the Lord?" "Why should I obey Him?" "Why should I let Israel go?"
Pharaoh was no different than any of us. We are all slow to give the Lord His proper place in our lives. In this message, we learn what that place is: We owe Him; we need Him and we belong to Him! Read the rest of this entry »

Video & PPT Lesson #1: Introduction – Just Five More Questions Please This is a great time to learn the Bible along with your family. It is an opportunity to step-up and become the principal Bible teacher for your own children. “Just Five More Questions Please” will guide your family through the pages of the Bible as you and your group discuss five thought provoking questions during each session. Have fun looking for our cartoon host, ex-gangster “Seamas” to give each of your children a “shout-out” on their birthdays. Are you ready? Let’s get started! We recommend the following music to go with your lesson time together: 1) “Word of God” May God bless your session. Video & PPT Lesson #2: God’s Mandate to be Bible Teachers for Our Own Children The Bible says: “You must teach them to your children and talk about them when you are at home or out for a walk; at bedtime and the first thing in the morning.” Deut. 6:7 TLB
We recommend the following music to go with your lesson time together: 1) “Speak Oh Lord” May God bless your session. Video & PPT Lesson #3: Why You Just Have to Love the Whole Bible Imagine you had an only son who would one day give his life to save the whole world. You would be proud of him, brag about him and likely keep a well-documented scrapbook of his story! This is exactly what the Old Testament is. It consists of prophecies, pictures, and early manifestations of the coming One – The Savior – Jesus – The Christ! It’s nothing less than God’s family scrapbook starring His beloved SON! We recommend the following music to go with your lesson time together: 1) “Ancient Words” May God bless your session. Video & PPT Lesson #4: Studio One – The Drama Begins Genesis 1:1 tells us about “The Beginning,” but the bible story doesn’t really start at the beginning. Other verses (later in the Word) tell us of decisions and choices that were made before the “foundations of the world.”
How reassuring it is to know that, even before Genesis 1:1, our God had everything under control and knew exactly what He was doing. We recommend the following music to go with your lesson time together: 1) “Revelation” May God bless your session. Video & PPT Lesson #5: Time for Change
The best description for this lesson comes from the lyrics of a kid’s song:
“He’s still working on me-To make me what I ought to be-It took Him just a week to make the moon and stars-The sun and the earth and Jupiter and Mars-How loving and patient He must be-Cause He’s still workin on me!”
We recommend the following music to go with your lesson time together: 1) “He’s Still Working on Me” 2) “In His Time” 3) “He Who Began a Good Work in You” 4) “Love’s Not Done With You” May God bless your session.

Video & PPT Lesson Lesson #7: God’s Timetable, pt. 1 The Alpha & the Omega (The scope of the story) God’s amazing plan to restore creation & save mankind begins in Genesis with “The Alpha” (who is Jesus) & ends in Revelation with “The Omega” (also Jesus). The very angels in Heaven & creation itself have an ardent personal interest in His plan… So do we! We recommend the following music to go with your lesson time together: 1) “Song that the Angels Can’t Sing” 2) “Angels Long to Look into These Things” 3) “Favorite Song of All” 4) “The Song of the Redeemed” May God bless your session.

We recommend the following music to go with your lesson time together: 1) “On Time God” May God bless your session. Video Lesson #9: God’s Timetable, pt. 3 Love is Patient!!! In this lesson we look at the 7th reason why God waited till near the end of His Master Plan (His Timetable) to reveal the main event–The Birth of Jesus. It was love, and love (like God) is patient. We recommend the following music to go with your lesson time together: 1) “He Was There All the Time” 2) “I’ll Lead You Home” 3) “Landslide” 4) “You Keep Coming After Me” 5) “Your Love – Psalm 139” May God bless your session. Video Lesson #10 God’s Timetable, pt. 4 Jesus Watches the Father’s Clock In this lesson we learn about the exactness of God’s timetable. Every event leading up to the birth of Christ (and after) is perfectly timed to precise dates that only God and certain O.T. prophets know. The same is true for our lives. God’s timing is in His hands. We recommend the following music to go with your lesson time together: 1) “He’s Coming Soon” 2) “God and God Alone” 3) “God’s Awesome Plan” May God bless your session. Video Lesson #11 God’s Timetable, pt. 5 “Wise Men Still Fear Him” Because God’s timetable is so exact, it can lead to a fearful realization that we are drawing closer and closer to some very powerful prophetic events, such as the second coming of Christ. Indeed, those who lived in the centuries before Christ’s first coming also had reason to fear the truths in prophecy. In this lesson, we learn that, while Jesus is to be feared, He is, at the same time-LOVE ITSELF! We recommend the following music to go with your lesson time together: 1) “The Lion and The Lamb” 2) “Lamb of God” May God bless your session. Video & PPT Lesson #12 God’s Timetable, pt. 6 “Stars Shine at Night” “Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord is dawning upon you. Look, darkness covers the earth, and deep darkness covers the peoples, but the Lord will dawn upon you, and his glory will be seen over you. Nations will walk to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn.” Isaiah 60:1-3GW We recommend the following music to go with your lesson time together: 1) “Our God” 2) “Rejoice with Exceeding Great Joy” 3) “How Great is Our God” 4) “Here I Am Lord” (perfect for an altar call to ministry and service) May God bless your session. Video & PPT Lesson #13 God’s Timetable, pt. 7 “Jesus is Lord” This is a story about golden crowns, orbs, robes, scepters, swagger sticks and all such accoutrements meant to set one human being above others. Such pompous, presumptuous behavior is an affront to the Heavenly Father, Who has presented His only Son as the one and only true sovereign over all life in the universe. He is the King of Kings. He is Lord of All!!! We recommend the following music to go with your lesson time together: 1) “You Are the Christ” 2) “Who Do You Say I Am” 3) “I Call Him Lord” 4) “Above All Worship” May God bless your time together.
Video & PPT Lesson #14 God’s Timetable, pt. 8 “A Tale of Two Kings” (Herod’s World – Seeking Pleasure) We have been looking at God’s timeline for dealing with mankind and the sin problem. It is interesting to explore the history and culture in which biblical events occurred. The birth and crucifixion of Jesus were the MAIN events. All previous events were designed to prepare mankind for this moment in time. In this lesson, we begin a look at the life and reign of “Herod the Great.” From the background, culture and attitudes of this one man, we can learn everything we need to know about the times in which Jesus was born. It is also interesting to note how similar those times were to the attitudes of today. We recommend the following music to go with your lesson time together:. 1) “Lord, I Offer You My Life” 2) “I Owe You Everything” 3)“Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus” 4) “I Have Decided to Follow Jesus” May God bless your time together. Video & PPT Lesson #15 God’s Timetable, pt. 9 A Tale of Two Kings pt. 2(Herod’s Rise – Seeking Power) As we continue to look at the life and reign of Herod the Great, it feels like we are reading today’s headline news. It confirms Sir Lord Acton’s quotation about whether religious leaders are as accountable for their bad deeds as political leaders are. He wrote, “Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men, even when they exercise influence and not authority…” We must continually remember, first and foremost, ALL the GLORY BELONGS to the LORD!!! We recommend the following music to go with your lesson time together:. 1) GREAT IS THE LORD 2) How Great Is Our God 3) Humble Me 4) You Alone May God Bless Your Session Video & PPT Lesson #16 God’s Timetable, pt. 10 A Tale of Two Kings pt. 3 Herod the Not so Great – Seeking Prestige When the pleasure-seeking Greek empire gave way to the power-grabbing Roman forces, Herod was fully engaged with it all. But, in his heart of hearts, he wanted more than anything to be remembered as a Great Man, a contributor, God’s gift to mankind, a name (dare we say) above every name. We recommend the following music to go with your lesson time together:. 1) All the Glory Must be to the Lord 2) Litany of Humility 3) Psalm 127 4) You Alone May God Bless Your Session Video & Free PPT: Lesson #17 – A Tale of Two Kings (Pt. 4) Don’t Call it Faith (Selling Phony Piety) Like the Pharisees, Herod was a religious hypocrite. He believed himself to be the likely Jewish Messiah. But, like many religious people today, Herod (who was not a Pharisee or a Sadducee) was a Fakeasee!! We would do well to examine our own hearts and discern between the things we do that come from authentic relationship with Jesus and those things we do merely for show. We recommend the following music to go with your lesson time together:. 1) If You Want to Lead Me to Jesus 2) No More Pretending 3) Less Like Me May God Bless Your Session
Times of change and difficulty are often God's opportunity to work in our lives. Let us not waste this season of atypical confinement with our loved ones. These, potentially uncomfortable circumstances have the power to strengthen both us as believers and our families if we choose to gratefully embrace them.

Video & Free PPT: A Strange Land Harold Greenberg Just a whisper of an ungodly suggestion, and the first woman in history was ready to challenge her God’s loving direction and fight for her rights. The relationship between God and man changed forever and paradise became a very strange land. Is the church today listening to similar, gospel altering, suggestions? Is the church itself becoming a strange land? Article: “Verily verily, I say unto you…” Examining the Importance of Sound Doctrine & Not “Pulling Punches.” Therese Greenberg “Verily, verily” means that the speaker is sure of both the truth and value of his words. “Pulling-punches” refers to one who strikes with less force than they are able. They want to avoid hurting their opponent. This may have it’s place in the boxing world, but not in ministry.

Harold Greenberg This sermon answers seven questions: #1 Are the tears of a Christian always Godly? #2 Can there be tears without repentance? #3 Can there be repentance without tears? #4 When we seek a place of repentance, do we always find it? #5 Can I live the Christian life without repentance? #6 What is the result of my living an unrepentant Christian life… and will I care? #7 What does all this mean for you, me and for the church in general? Article: When Children & Adults Study the Bible Together Therese Greenberg This article reminds us of the importance of children in the mind of God. To Him, they are open hearted souls He can draw closer to Himself and even call into ministry, often at a very young age. Video Sermon: Don’t Be a Nimrod! Therese Greenberg In this sermon, we examine how human pride can gradually seep into our work for Christ and morph us into Nimrods rather than Abrahams. We are called to emulate the Abrahamic walk. With Jesus as our example and keeping Him in our sights, we can remind ourselves as often as needed, “Don’t Be a Nimrod!” Video Sermon: What Do You Really Feel? Therese Greenberg This video was a 2011 New Year’s message for my daughter and her family. It encourages believers to be honest with themselves and others about what we are really feeling. We need to let God search our hearts and show us who we really are. Video Sermon: When Christians Get Snippy Harold Greenberg In several scriptures, the Lord urges believers to be merciful as He is merciful. He reminds us that is is not our job to pronounce judgement on mankind–it’s His. Most of us try to live this way, but sometimes, although we refrain from bringing out a guillotine, we can’t resist a little snip with our scissors. The biblical story of David’s experience with Saul brings this truth to life. Video & Free PPT: Wheat & Chairs Therese Greenberg Living things grow and mature. When a believer is born-again, he starts his Christian experience as a baby feeding on milk. Then he grows into a toddler learning to walk, then an adult having babies himself, etc. To illustrate this, Jesus preached a message on the four stages of wheat growth. Video Sermon: You Owe Me Harold Greenberg When Moses brought Pharaoh God’s message requiring him to set the children of Israel free, his immediate response was arrogant and defiant. He felt strongly that God had no authority over the affairs of his life. He jeered: “Who is the Lord?” “Why should I obey Him?” “Why should I let Israel go?” Pharaoh was no different than any of us. We are all slow to give the Lord His proper place in our lives. In this message, we learn what that place is: We owe Him; we need Him and we belong to Him! Video Sermon: Quarantine – Endure or Engage Harold Greenberg This sermon was preached during “shelter in place” 2020. Times of change and difficulty are often God’s opportunity to work in our lives. Let us not waste this season of atypical confinement with our loved ones. Potentially uncomfortable circumstances (such as these), if we choose to gratefully embrace them, have the power to spiritually strengthen us individually as well as our families. Article: Hidden Things Harold Greenberg A sermon based on the story of Achan (in Joshua) and his attempt to retain and conceal the booty he had taken from the Lord’s battle. Although we have been delivered from the world and its values, have we reserved a bit of this bounty and hidden it in our own tent (and at what cost)?

This lesson examines the duties of the priests of Israel. It seems they spent a great deal of time sprinkling things with blood, water, salt and oil.

The wilderness experience is God’s school of higher education.

Many of us have suffered from broken promises. We have also been guilty of breaking promises ourselves.
