The topic of discussion continues to be marriage today, as Lloyd Pulley continues his new series called “The Family of God”. One of the reason so may marriages fail in the year 2024 is that we have strayed away from God’s carefully defined roles for husbands and wives. Men and women are really different, as I’m sure you’ve noticed, and God made us …

We have just begun a new series from pastor Lloyd Pulley called “The Family of God”. Today we’ll explore how the Church is the body of Christ. Now, that’s something that most Christians have heard over the course of their lives, but do we really know what it means? And more importantly, do we know how to activate that body for the good of all and t…

Today we begin a series from pastor Lloyd called “The Family of God”. We’ll begin today with a study in Galatians six, and the definition of what a church is supposed to be. As you no doubt are aware, there is what’s called the universal Church. It’s made up of believers around the world, but today we’ll be narrowing our focus to the local Church. …

Today we bring you pastor Lloyd’s final message in his series through the epistle of James. James was a no nonsense guy. Today he would be referred to as a “straight shooter”.

We’re near the end of our study of James right now. In fact, today we bring you part one of pastor Lloyd’s final message in James. Backsliders are, unfortunately, very common in the Christian church today.

Many who look at James chapter five misinterpret what the author is truly saying. James tells the sick person to call for the elders, and let them pray over him or her, and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. Then he goes on to say that the prayer offered in faith will restore the one who is sick. Does this mean that God will heal everyon…

Today, Lloyd will bring us another message from his series in James. As we mentioned at the beginning of this series, James is one of the most practical books in the Bible.

If I asked you to name a character trait that seems to be harder and harder to find these days, I think a good answer would be “integrity”.

Today on Bridging the Gap we're encouraged toward a life of honesty…

We'll continue our study of the book of James today, and if you'll recall we left off in chapter five. It's exciting to think that Jesus could return at any time. All the signs suggest He's at the door, and that His return is soon. And that should radically impact how we live.By Lloyd Pulley

There was a group of people who apparently weren't living as they should back in the first century A.D., and this prompted a sharp rebuke from James. Not unlike many Americans, these people misused their riches, and we'll see what James has to say about them - and perhaps us.By Lloyd Pulley

Perhaps the most famous gold strike in American history occurred in January 1848 when a man named John Marshall found gold at Sutter's Mill in northern California.

Who really knows what’s best for us? Most of us, of course, think we do.

Today we’ll continue our journey through one of the most challenging books in the bible, James. Many in our day and age pride themselves on their independence. They want to do their own thing and be their own king, have their own way, day and say. But the Christian is to live quite differently. Our lives must be totally dependent upon God.…

We’ll be in chapter four here on this edition of Br…

When we were kids, one of mom and dad’s main functions was teaching us the things to avoid. That’s James’ topic too. If we want to walk in the spirit, there are things we definitely need to avoid.

Today on Bridging the Gap, pastor Lloyd Pulley contrasts the wisdom that comes from below with the wisdom that comes from above.

Pastor Lloyd is leading us verse by verse through the epistle of James. We’ve all experienced saying something that later we wished we hadn’t... whether it be a curse word, or something that hurt another a great deal. It’s amazing how such a small part of the body can have such a large impact. No wonder James likens it to a fire! Let’s see now how …

Since our early days in Sunday School we’ve heard over and over again that we are saved by grace and not by works.
