All Resources

Effective role-modeling presupposes close relationships and therefore serves as a protection to both leader and follower.

The filthiness of our national politics has brought to my mind a question put to me nearly 20 years ago by one of my teachers. “Don’t you think there is more lying in politics than there used to be?” he asked. “Why do you think that this is happening?”

Randy Alcorn answers the question, "What is the problem of evil and suffering?"

Homicide detective Ollie Chandler has seen it all. But when he’s called to investigate the murder of a Portland State University professor, he finds himself going places he’s never gone before. See Randy Alcorn's book Deception for more information. 

...what are you doing to pour yourselves into our future church leaders who will set examples, for better or for worse, for generations to come?

The safest road to hell is the gradual one—the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, without milestones, without signposts. — C. S. Lewis

.....obedience comes out of desire to please a God we love, not the opposite where our obedience is somehow pleasing to God so now He can love us.

While we do not regard ourselves a charismatic church, we do not wish to be known as “anti-charismatic.” What we do insist upon is a spirit of love and unity, the total sufficiency of Christ, and the final authority of the Scriptures.

Randy Alcorn shares key points from his book The Treasure Principle. The Treasure Principle DVD (2004) this video is excerpted from is no longer available. See Randy's Treasure Principle study DVD (2017) for more information on this topic. 

When it comes to our money and resources, what Randy is trying to communicate is to be open to the needs of the people today (the poor, the hungry and needy)....

I believe Christ died for all people, Jew and Gentile (1 John 2:2) I believe He brought His salvation first to the Jews, then to the Gentiles (Romans 1:16).

Heaven is an actual place, in a real location, designed by God with people in mind.

A 25th anniversary greeting to the Portland Pregnancy Resource Center from Randy Alcorn.

Note that Paul didn’t say, “Command those who are rich to stop being rich.” The implication is that there is legitimate diversity in the amount of money and possessions held by Christians. Most early Christians weren’t people of high social standing (see 1 Corinthians 1:26-29).
