You'll find a treasure trove here of hundreds of stories, articles and Bible studies. Why don't
you sample it right now with a brief inspirational piece, a
touch of humor, and the story behind America's favorite hymn. Feel free to use
the articles you find here in your bulletins, newsletters, and
sermons -- so
long as you don't post them on a website.You'll find lots of
Christmas stores and articles
on this site.
Our newest free e-mail Bible study
is on
Galatians starting in
mid-January, but you can take more than
20 other studies via
e-mail at no cost to you.
In October I conducted a teaching
mission in western Kenya. You can view a series of
videos of my teaching on giving and
tithing in Swahili and English.
I'm pleased to announce
JesusWalk: Beginning the Journey,
discipleship and spiritual formation curriculum, specifically designed for
new believers.
Part of our ministry is pioneering the JesusWalk® Internet Bible Study Series. Why don't you sign up for one of our
free online Bible studies, but only sign up for one at a time -- they're pretty intensive! Or you can purchase one of our Bible study books or e-books.
Recent Bible studies include
John's Letters,
1 and 2 Timothy,
The Christ Powered Life
(Romans 5-8),
Sermon on the Mount: The Jesus
Manifesto and Experiencing the
Psalms. Another feature of this site is links to some of the
world's great Christian paintings.
A video is available of Dr. Wilson's teaching at the
African Renewal
