On Sunday, November 13, 2022, GSBC held its Friendsgiving and Billy Graham service which was a special and memorable event. We began by honoring our veterans from each branch of the U.S. military. The Praise Team led us in songs of worship, then Pastor Michael Bartlett gave a touching message which included a video of Billy Graham's last evangelistic sermon. After the service we enjoyed a wonderful time of food, fun, and fellowship with a meal of turkey, ham, and all the

Do you think it’s possible to change the world in one day? Not even a whole day – just the hours from the pre-dawn darkness until the skies are darkening again as the sun slips behind the mountains.
Jesus did.
Mark 15 covers a single day in history. Our attention is laser-focused on the once-in-a-lifetime, once-for-all-time event of the crucifixion of Jesus – the most pivotal point in humanity’s story. There are several players visible on the stage, but off-stage, unseen by

My friend and author Sheila Alewine writes:
How old were you when your parents decided you were mature enough to stay home by yourself? I think I was around 12 or 13. Both my parents worked, so during the summer months, my mom would leave my brother and me at home with a “to do” list. I’m sure the items on the list were important and helpful but looking back she probably agreed with that old adage, “idle hands are the devil’s work!” Without the accountability of expectatio

My friend and author Sheila Alewine writes:
Are you ever accused of being old-fashioned, or out-of-date? To some people, that might be a derogatory term, but the older I get, and the crazier our world gets, the more I think it’s a great compliment! While I’m not anxious to return to some bygone clothing or hairstyles, there are a few “old-fashioned” things we need more of:
Old fashioned values.Old fashioned work ethic.Old fashioned morals.Old fashioned belief in the Bible.Ol

Following the narrative of Jesus through the gospel writers is an amazing journey. Jesus often says things that make us really stop and think. When we read scripture, we have to keep in mind that it is spiritually discerned, and the meaning may not be obvious at first; we have to dig deeper and give God time to enlighten us.
We also have to read it with two non-negotiables in mind. First, God’s character is infinitely and innately righteous and good. Our inability to unders

Sheila Alwine writes:
If I told you that I could give you something that is one hundred times better than what you have, would you take me up on my offer? Of course, you would! That’s what we call a “no-brainer!”
Did you know that Jesus made that same offer? The question is, do we believe Him?
In Mark 10:17-31, Jesus has an encounter with a rich young ruler. The young man asked a sincere question: What shall I do to inherit eternal life? Jesus answers by listing some of the t
