    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Feb 20, 2026
     | 44 views

    Miriam and Aaron were sister and brother to Moses. There was one time, though, when Miriam experienced a severe punishment because of her attitude and speech towards Moses.

    Tragedy at the Tabernacle: Miriam’s Punishment Introduction: The Tabernacle was also known as the “tent of meeting” and the place of worship for Israel during the Old Testament era. The Israelites also came there to present their various offerings to the LORD. Yet there was another side to the ...read more

    Two of Aaron's sons, just anointed and appointed to the priesthood, lost their lives needlessly.

    An Outline for Tragedy at the Tabernacle: Nadab and Abihu Introduction: In the immediate context, Israel had left Egypt and they were now heading towards the Promised Land. The Law was now in effect, the Tabernacle was built, and Aaron plus his four sons had been formally appointed to the ...read more

    The Story Behind John 3:16

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Feb 11, 2026
     | 536 views

    John 3:16 is one of the most loved verses in all the Bible. There's more to the story, though.

    The Story Behind John 3:16 Introduction: There’s no greater love anyone can express beyond what our Lord Jesus Christ did for us. “John 3:16” has been used as a graphic (remember seeing football and other fans wearing vests with that reference on them?) and a quote. But there’s more to the story, ...read more

    An Outline For The Proverbs 7 Woman

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jan 26, 2026
     | 122 views

    In contrast to the virtuous "Proverbs 31" woman is the "strange woman" of Proverbs 7. The contrast between these two types of women couldn't be more obvious!

    An Outline for The Proverbs 7 Woman Introduction: Many of us have heard about the “Proverbs 31 woman” whom Lemuel described so elegantly. Just as influential, for all the wrong reasons, is the Proverbs 7 woman whom Solomon described in vivid terms: this, coming from a man with 700 wives and 300 ...read more

    An Outline For A Sermon From Proverbs 4:20-27

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jan 25, 2026
     | 63 views

    This is part of an outline for a sermon preached by Dr. Jerry Falwell at the Thomas Road Baptist Church in Lynchburg, VA sometime around 1975. Students at Liberty Baptist College needed to attend services there. I'm sure there was more but this is about all I can remember.

    An Outline for A Sermon from Proverbs 4, 20-27 Introduction: This outline is based on a sermon preached by Dr. Jerry Falwell at Thomas Road Baptist Church in Lynchburg, VA sometime in the 1975-76 timeframe. I was a student at Liberty University (then known as Liberty Baptist College) in those days ...read more

    An Outline For "He Did Right In The Eyes Of The Lord”

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jan 23, 2026
     | 110 views

    King Josiah lived in a troubled time. His grandfather, Manasseh, had signed Judah's death warrant, and his father, Amon, had been put to death. Josiah rose from these challenges and more to do right in the eyes of the Lord!

    An Outline for “He Did Right in the Eyes of the Lord” Introduction: Many years before Josiah’s time, Israel had asked for a human king so that they could be like the other nations. Samuel had protested this, warning Israel that one day they’d get exactly what they asked for (see 1 Samuel 8 and ...read more

    An Outline For A "sore-Throat" Sermon

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jan 19, 2026
     | 92 views

    This is a humorous outline, not to be taken seriously, for any preacher who's had to struggle delivering a message while he or she has a sore throat. Maybe, though, less really is more......???

    An Outline for a "Sore-Throat" Sermon Introduction: This outline is admittedly a humorous attempt to present an outline or message, especially when the preacher has a cold or otherwise suffers from a sore throat! To paraphrase a commercial or something I once heard years ago, “Do you ...read more

    The Seven Churches-Laodicea Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jan 13, 2026
     | 172 views

    This church, the last of the Seven, received a strong message from the Lord Jesus Christ. Still, there is a tender and beautiful invitation in the last few verses. Have you opened the door to Jesus?

    The Seven Churches-Laodicea Introduction: (Full disclosure, this message is based on a sermon I preached at New Hope Baptist Church near Fulton, MO on November 30, 2025 but is not an exact transcription.) This last church of the Seven Churches is both a reminder and a warning to all people. The ...read more

    The Seven Churches-Philadelphia Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jan 9, 2026
     | 155 views

    Philadelphia didn't seem to be a large church, but the little strength they had was enough for them to overcome with the Lord's help. This church was truly the church of the open door!

    The Seven Churches-Philadelphia (Full disclosure: this message is based on a sermon I preached at New Hope Baptist Church near Fulton, MO on November 23, 2025 but is not an exact transcription.) Introduction: My paternal grandfather and one of Dad’s brothers were both pastors for many years. ...read more

    The Seven Churches-Sardis Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jan 4, 2026
     | 141 views

    The Lord didn't have much good to say about Sardis. Yet "even in Sardis", there were some genuine believers who wanted to live for our Lord, and did so!

    The Seven Churches-Sardis Introduction: The year 1747, a park bench in Warsaw, Poland in the mid-1950’s, and a church in what’s now western Turkey. On the surface, there doesn’t seem to be a common thread, but the truth is that all of these refer to the church in Sardis. This church is the fifth ...read more

    The Seven Churches-Thyatira Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jan 1, 2026
    based on 1 rating
     | 159 views

    A good church can be destroyed by false teachers. Thyatira had one of the worst false teachers and the Lord had to remind them just how evil that false teaching really was.

    The Seven Churches-Thyatira Introduction: Thyatira is the fourth in the series of the Seven Churches. As with the other churches, the Lord gives a picture or reminder of Himself, followed by a word of praise. He then points out a problem and gives an exhortation to fix or solve that problem. The ...read more

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Dec 27, 2025
     | 127 views

    Pergamum was the third in the series of the Seven Churches. This church had a few problems, but the Lord had words of comfort for them.

    The Seven Churches-Pergamum Introduction: The first two churches mentioned in Revelation 2—Ephesus and Smyrna—were both located near the sea (at least in the time John wrote this book). With Pergamos/Pergamum, the locations become more inland. There are several commentaries and other resources ...read more

    The Seven Churches-Smyrna Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Dec 23, 2025
     | 159 views

    Smyrna was another of the Seven Churches of Asia. The Lord Jesus Christ gave them a message of things to come, and rewards for those who remained faithful even in times of persecution.

    The Seven Churches-Smyrna Introduction: Smyrna was the second of the seven churches listed in Revelation 2-3. The message to the “angel (literally, messenger; likely the senior pastor or overseer)” was brief and to the point. Troubles were there, more was coming, but the Lord promised rewards to ...read more

    The Seven Churches-Ephesus Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Dec 16, 2025
     | 289 views

    Ephesus was a large and important city in the Roman Empire. Paul and others preached the Gospel, won people to Christ, and wrote them a letter. Now it was time for another letter, this one coming from Jesus Himself.

    The Seven Churches-Ephesus (Note: this message is based on a sermon I preached at New Hope Baptist Church near Fulton, MO on October 19, 2025 but it is not an exact transcription.) Introduction: Ephesus. This city was one of the largest in the Roman Empire. At the time, Ephesus was a thriving ...read more

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Dec 5, 2025
     | 243 views

    Jesus and the disciples went by boat to Gadara, on the other side of the Sea of Galilee. Some very unusual things happened after they arrived there!

    When Jesus went to Gadara Introduction: Jesus spent the larger portion of His ministry in Judea and Galilee. He and the disciples did indeed go to a few other places, like Samaria, but this time the group headed east to the land of Gadara. They encountered some things they probably never ...read more
