    The Lord Helped Him

    Contributed by Jerry Smith on May 21, 2012
     | 6,848 views

    King Jehosphaphat cried out to God for help and the Lord answered him. We cry out to God in prayer and desire for the Lord to answer our prayers as well.

    I found another wonderful story of life changing prayer this morning. The story is found in two Old Testament passages – I Kings 22:32 and 2 Chronicles 18:31. It is interesting to me that the wording of both passages is almost the same which might indicate they used a common resource. What is ...read more

     | 18,470 views

    The new thing God promised to do in showing a way out of the spiritual wilderness and deserts people find themselves in

    God will make a way when there seems to be no way! Sometimes we feel trapped in a situation with no easy or good solutions out of it. This is when we must depend on God and claim the truth of this promise. This truth is given scriptural base in Isaiah 43:18, 19. Please stand in honor of the reading ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 11,373 views

    The sermon points out five changes Jesus brought to the man possessed by demons. I identify what his life was like before Jesus and what it was like after encountering Him.

    Before and after! From our cardboard testimonies you have seen the message of what a person’s life was like before Jesus and what it is like after Jesus comes into their life. Maybe you need Jesus to make a difference in your life today! Let’s look at the story of a man who experienced ...read more

    Using the idea of desire or crave milk to grow in Christ, then illustrating the idea with Demas and John Mark as one who did not grow and one who did grow in Christ and the results of that

    The Apostle Peter talked about milk and its value to us in our spiritual growth. Please turn with me to I Peter 2:1, 2 READ. I am so excited for Mitch, Taylor and Tyler this morning. You have the opportunity to begin your commitment to Christ today. You have your whole life ahead of you and the ...read more

    Expansion of the phrase Jesus said "I will build My church".

    Our son Jeremy loves building things with Legos. Now he is a project manager for a commercial construction company. When he started college his major was as an architect. During the Christmas break we were talking and he came to the conclusion that he wanted to build things and not draw them. Where ...read more

    based on 8 ratings
     | 36,491 views

    Jesus tells us to "keep watch" and "be faithful" while we are waiting for His return. What did He mean by these words?

    I Google the question “predictions on the end of the world” and found a web site that has documented 200 predictions for end of the world from as early as the first century reaching out to 2047. Three of them coming up pretty soon were: From the book: "We Are Almost There" by Harold Camping and ...read more

    What God Can Do With Small Things Series

    Contributed by Jerry Smith on Aug 10, 2009
    based on 8 ratings
     | 17,679 views

    The little boy gave to Jesus his lunch and Jesus fed over 5,000 people. You have something that you can give to Jesus. It may appear to be small to you, but God can bless it and make it useful to thousands. Will you give it to Him?

    (Play Chris Tomlins’s version of “Take my Life” (recorded from YouTube) during the offering) It is amazing sometimes what the brain remembers and why! I don’t know why but I can remember what I had for lunch on a Boy Scout hiking trip when I was in jr high. Our Scout troop was going to go to ...read more

    The Woman At The Well Gets More Than She Ever Dreamed Of Series

     | 6,707 views

    The Samaritan woman came to Jacob’s well to get water and got forgiveness and a whole new life --- more than she ever dreamed of, but certainly what she wanted in her heart.

    I grew up in Iuka, Mississippi. Iuka used to be famous for one thing, iron spring water. In 1904 at the World’s Fair in St Louis some of the iron water from Iuka won the gold medal for the purest and best mineral water. In the late 19th century many people traveled to Iuka for the curative power of ...read more

    Spiritual Adultery Series

    Contributed by Jerry Smith on Aug 10, 2009
    based on 7 ratings
     | 8,430 views

    the sermon parallels the physical adultery of the woman and the spiritual adultery of the Pharisees

    As I was preparing this message on the woman taken in adultery, I really wanted to focus only on the woman and not anything about the Pharisees. However, the more I studied the passage the more I came to understand a message there I had never seen before. Turn with me to John 8:1-11. (Show video ...read more

    Why Mission Trips Are Important

    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,795 views

    Many people think teams going on mission trips are a waste of time and money, here are reasons they are of great value to individuals and churches.

    Since the Brazil mission team is preparing lunch for us today, I want to deal with an issue that typically comes up when a team is going on an overseas mission trip. I heard this same issue when I was at FBC Florence and from other Pastors in their churches. The issue is spending large amounts of ...read more

    The People’s Response to the Palm Sunday entry of Jesus by shouting praises, waving palm branches and laying their cloaks on the ground and what each of these means to us.

    This Sunday is called Palm Sunday! Do we really understand why we wave palm branches? Why the Jews laid the palm branches on the ground for Jesus to ride over them on His donkey? What is the significance of all this? Let me try to answer these questions for you this morning. Please turn to Matthew ...read more

    Abraham was told by God to sacrifice his only son Isaac. God did not ask Abraham to do something God was not willing to do Himself. This sermon parallels these truths.

    Abraham is the Father of our Faith. In Genesis 12 God called him to be the leader of a great nation. In our story today God tells Abraham to sacrifice his son. Let’s study this story for truths we can apply to our lives. I. The request from God 22:1, 2 READ Notice in verse 2 God understood the ...read more

    Truths To Learn From Esther

    Contributed by Jerry Smith on Apr 14, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,593 views

    Esther was faced with a decision that required her to pray, review God’s timing, act with courage and live by faith. These are traits we must evidence too when making decisions

    Esther became Queen to King Xerxes in 479BC. This was around 25 years after Ezra took a group of pilgrims back to Israel. In chapter one Queen Vashti refuses to obey the King and is removed from power. In chapter two the King holds a beauty pageant to select the next queen. READ 2:17, 18 As we ...read more
