He’s Still God!

Contributed by John Gaston on Sep 6, 2025

GOD IS STILL GOD! Despite all the arguments of atheists, all the denials of some scientists, the opposition of governments, and the mocking of the “learned,” God is still God. He overthrows nations and sets up gov’ts who will uphold His order.

HE’S STILL GOD! Mic. 7:18 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Better Offer 1. At a wedding rehearsal, the groom said to the minister "I'll make a deal with you. If during the vows you'll leave out all of that love, honor and obey stuff, I'll give you a hundred dollars. "He slipped a ...read more

Contributed by Les Buttolph on Sep 13, 2025

God speaks to us when we drown out the world's noise

Fearing his wife was losing her hearing, a man stood at the back of the kitchen as she was washing dishes in the sink and said “I love you”.

When Rights Are Wrong

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Dec 29, 2025

Just because you have a right to do something doesn't mean that it is right for you to do it.

Just because our Scripture reading for this week was 1 Kings doesn't mean that it was easy to decide what to preach on. It's so full of illustrations of the use and misuse of power that I could probably spend the whole month before moving on to 2 Kings, which is just as rich with examples ...read more

What Is A Miracle?

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Dec 29, 2025

The greatest miracle of all is knowing that things will come out right in the end because of God’s love for us.

My brother Jeremy picked me up at the airport a couple of weeks ago when I flew to Pittsburgh. He isn’t from Pittsburgh, though, he’s from Alaska. So we relied on Mapquest to get from the airport to the seminary. Pittsburgh is the hardest city to drive in I know. Well, they tell me Boston is worse, ...read more

Consequences Of Forsaking The Lord

Contributed by Phillip Smith on Oct 11, 2025

All members of society suffer from the evils all around us. Why does God allow suffering and persecution to the righteous? Consequences for evil doings must be endured. Spiritual Blindness and Spiritual Adultery against God are some of the causes.

Evils come upon everyone. Some believe it is a part of life. Leaders speak of these evil behaviors as nothing to be alarmed over. Murders and other vicious crimes happen daily. Many more occur at different times compared to others; perhaps more are occurring here recently. 2 Timothy 3:13. 13 But ...read more

Seed The Clouds Youth Sermon

Contributed by Youth Sermons on Sep 5, 2023

To seed the clouds, we need to have a prophetic imagination, which means seeing the invisible, hearing the inaudible, and believing the impossible. We need to persist in prayer and trust that God is working behind the scenes.

Have you ever heard of cloud seeding? It's this crazy science experiment where they make it rain by putting stuff into clouds. Back in 1946, a dude named Vincent Schaeffer made it snow by seeding clouds with dry ice. But guess what? This idea isn't new. Even the prophet Elijah did it. Even the ...read more

When God Speaks, He Is Present Youth Sermon

Contributed by Youth Sermons on Jun 21, 2024

When we hear God speak, we are encountering His presence. God speaks to us in various ways, and when we hear His voice, it is a personal encounter with Him.

Hey guys, let's talk about something cool. You know how you're always on your phones, texting, chatting, and scrolling? Imagine if you got a text from God. Sounds crazy, right? But that's kind of what happened to a guy named Job in the Bible. Job was a good guy, but he had a really rough time. He ...read more

Win The Day - Seed The Clouds Premium Sermon

Contributed by PRO Premium on Oct 9, 2023

This sermon will explore the concept of having big faith and bold prayers, drawing parallels from the story of Vincent Schaeffer who created snow crystals in a freezer by seeding clouds with dry ice.

On November 13, 1946, a single-propeller airplane took off from Schenectady County Airport with a rather unique payload—six pounds of dry ice—and a rather unique mission.

Speak, Lord

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Jan 24, 2026

When we are guilty of a lack of trust, like Elijah, we know that this sin too is forgiven. Our God loves us and quietly, gently notes our sin, assures us of His forgiveness, and then points us in the direction that we should go.

You've Got A Lot Going For You, Part 1: God The Father

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Jul 29, 2019

Too many Christians feel inadequate to be any use to God or their church. Paul reminds the Ephesian Christians of the resources they have going for them.

In any church you’ll find some members who sit on the sidelines, feeling like they don’t really belong on the team. They have heard a number of times that God loves them, but in their hearts, they wonder. They feel a little lonely at church, a little on the sidelines. And they’d like to get to ...read more
