BREATHE ON ME BREATH OF GOD. John 20:19-23. It was the evening of the first day of the week: the day of the resurrection; the first day of the new creation.

The Gifts Of The Holy Spirit - Part 1 Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Feb 7, 2011

The Gifts of the Holy Spirit has split churches and The Church for thousands of years. Paul delves into this lively and controversial subject in the next three chapters of 1st Corinthians. His reason for the discussion is not to provide a complete guide t

Chapter 12 might look to some as a right turn in the letter—Paul introducing a totally new subject that has nothing to do with what came before. Although it appears to an answer to yet another question from the Corinthians, the undertone of the letter continues—“let the gospel shine brighter than ...read more

God's Agenda For Us Series

If we fail at the basics, we have no solid foundation; Peter gives us that foundation by proposing two truths.

God’s Agenda For Us (I Peter 1:1-5) 1. Sometimes we are like the little boy who was overheard talking to himself as he strutted through the backyard, wearing his baseball cap and toting a ball & bat.

Night Calls - A Call To Serve Series

Contributed by Jerry Flury on Jan 24, 2010

God often deals with us at night. In the deepest night God brings Israel out of Egypt. At night God wrestles with Jacob. At midnight God looses Peter’s chains. At night Paul hears the Macedonian call. In the middle of the night God calls Samuel to serve.

Night Calls – Part One: “A Call to Serve” 1 Samuel 3:1-21 Introduction: God’s word declares that “God is light and in Him is no darkness at all” As such we often equate times of trouble, of difficulty, of spiritual lows with the night.

Today we will begin our examination of the 7 churches of Revelation, and each of these churches has a very specific letter given to it. Although sometimes subtle, there is a very common theme to each letter: a church that allows the world to influence it is NOT being faithful to Jesus Christ.

800-Pound Gorilla? Or The First Pope?

Contributed by William Mouser on Aug 23, 2005

Who Am I?

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Apr 21, 2023

Don’t you just love those preachers who can take one bible verse and bring an entire message with a rich and robust meaning? Well, that ain’t me! You’re not getting that today. However, the message is built around 1 Corinthians 12:27 and we’ll get there eventually!

Did you ever have that teacher who the only reason you paid attention in class was because they might call on you to answer a question, and you didn’t want to look a fool?
