    It Will Be Worth It All

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 31, 2019
     | 9,832 views

    We look at comparisons that will bring our own sufferings into right perspective and see the reasons it will be "worth it all" to serve Jesus.

    It Will Be Worth It All Romans 8:18; 2 Cor. 4:17 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Two elderly women were out driving in a large car -- both could barely see over the dashboard. As they were cruising along, they came to an intersection. The stop light was red, but they just went on through. The woman ...read more

    Strength During Suffering

    Suffering is a reality. Where can we gain strength from when we suffer?

    New years are time to generally reflect and to look forward to new things. Despite the fact that it repeats every 365 days, it is still something to look forward to. We all have heard multiple jokes about New Year resolutions. Today is the 7th of the month and, if we had made New Year resolutions, ...read more

    Stuff: Investing In The Wrong Stuff

     | 5,913 views

    Do we understand the weightier matters of spiritual life? What really matters to you? What matters to God? Are we building a God pleasing value system.

    INVESTING IN THE WRONG STUFF By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com I love to read. What a great blessing and responsibility reading is. I heard a Preacher boast he had read 10 books this month. That is good, I thought. I enquired how much of the Bible did he read that month? He said: Oh, ...read more

    This sermon is part of our spiritual first aid series and looks at the problem of spiritual fatigue.

    Spiritual First Aid Fighting Fatigue Ever wanted to just quit? There’s not a person alive that hasn’t felt like that. It’s where the circumstances and situations of life overwhelm us and all we want to do is to back away, check out, and vanish. It’s where we want to quit on everyone, even the ...read more

    Passing The Light

    Finding grace in adverse circumstances to pass the torch of the gospel on to others.

    PASSING THE LIGHT. 2 Corinthians 4:5-12. Paul had been concerned by some self-made ‘ministers’ who were nothing better than peddlers ‘making gain by corrupting the word of God’ (2 Corinthians 2:17). Paul and his fellow-ministers, by contrast, were neither dishonest nor manipulative. They ...read more

    We Do Not Lose Heart

    While God is preparing us for this house, Jesus is preparing this house for us.

    WE DO NOT LOSE HEART. 2 Corinthians 4:13-5:1. The first thing that strikes us about this passage is the continuity between the Old Testament and the New. Paul finds his warrant to preach embedded in the book of Psalms: ‘I believed, therefore I spoke. I am greatly afflicted’ (Psalm 116:10). ...read more

    Message 25 from Philippians. This is the second message exploring Paul's admonition to rejoice in the Lord.

    “Rejoice in the Lord” Part two I have found practicing last week’s message an actual source of joy. Throughout the day, I have declared, “I choose joy.” I look forward to completing this important topic. Paul specified some specific joy related actions throughout chapter four. • Stand firm in the ...read more

    Meditations on Christian living as I near the end of days. Looking to what is coming enables me to weather the storms of life and to draw renewed strength from the Risen Son of God.

    “We have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us. We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; always carrying in the body the death of ...read more

    How are we to understand the New Testament? Are some of its instructions now irrelevant to us? Should we preach ourselves, our denomination, or popular opinion which contradicts the New Testament?

    Prelude How are we to understand the New Testament? Are some of its instructions now irrelevant to us?

    Down But Not Out!

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jun 3, 2018
    based on 4 ratings
     | 17,269 views

    When it comes to suffering, Paul calls us to forsake pity parties and glorify God. We can remember that Jesus shines through us, that our weaknesses glorify God, that we may be down but never out, and that our sufferings may bring eternal life to others.

    2 Corinthians 4:5-12 Down but Not Out! A Christian need never suffer. At least that’s what some preachers might tell you. However, that is not the message of scripture. Jesus said, “If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also” (John 15:20). We should expect no better treatment than that ...read more

    It's The Message - NOT - the messenger

    Mid-week Message/Devotion June 6, 2018 2 Corinthians 4:5-12 It All Leads To JESUS! In this reading, a major point that Paul is trying to make has to do with what followers look at, concentrate on and take away. If we concentrate on the messenger more than the message, we will undoubtedly miss ...read more

    "Worth The Wait, Worth The Weight”

    based on 1 rating
     | 9,567 views

    From the cradle to the coffin, affliction and sorrow are the appointed lot of man. We all came into the world with a wailing cry, and we often leave with an agonizing groan. Compare these afflictions with the sufferings and sorrows of the God-Man...

    “For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are ...read more

     | 28,619 views

    God formed us, shaped us, like a master potter. Do we trust Him? When He directs our path, do we make excuses why we can’t do it, or do we walk boldly along that path in faith? God didn’t create you to be the centerpiece on a display shelf… He created you as a clay pot to be useful for His kingdom!
