    Who Is The Greatest Person In This Church?

    Contributed by Alvan Lewis on Mar 7, 2022
     | 1,965 views

    A close look at what Jesus considered greatness.

    Who is the Greatest? Who is the greatest person in this church? That should be an easy question to answer if we use our culture’s criteria of greatness.

    Called Out: The Role Of The Church

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 14, 2022
     | 2,076 views

    Jesus Christ is the Head of the Church, and no one else (Matthew 16:13-19). We have strayed from what the Scriptures teach about the church's purpose and responsibilities and instead allowed the world's opinions take precedence over what we are to be and do.

    When we hear the word "church", most of us think of a building or membership in a particular denomination with standards, beliefs, and guidelines for worship, order, the reading and use of Scripture, and sermons. The problem is that far too many people now view the church as a symbol ...read more

    When a church has a good reputation, much activity and past accomplishment it does not guarantee a spiritually alive church.

    George Barna in his book Turnaround Churches, profiles thirty churches that were about to die and made a turnaround. He compares dying churches to the Sears Catalogue. For about 100 years Sears was the symbol of mail order catalogue business. They introduced their mail order catalogue in 1894. For ...read more

    When The Church Needs Intolerance Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jan 23, 2022
     | 2,554 views

    Many times churches become stagnant because of intolerance. They will not accept those different from themselves. That is why it seems surprising that Jesus himself delivers a message on intolerance.

    Intolerance has a negative connotation. Many times churches become stagnant because of intolerance. They will not accept those different from themselves. That is why it seems surprising that Jesus himself delivers a message on intolerance. But when a church tolerates someone who teaches or ...read more

    I've had a rotten feeling in my gut since the beginning of this COVID-19 crisis. But I've been afraid to say it out loud. I've been afraid of criticism and hostility.

    Choosing A Church Based On The Preacher

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Aug 16, 2022
     | 1,002 views

    What criteria should a layperson use to determine which church to attend? It is vital for preachers and bishops to understand the concept. Preachers have the responsibility to present the Bible accurately and to encourage the people to follow it.

    Choosing a Church Based on the Preacher John 4:43-54? Rev. Dr. Michael H. Koplitz ?43 After athe two days He went forth from there into Galilee. 44 For Jesus Himself testified ?that aa prophet has no honor in his own country. 45 So when He came to Galilee, the Galileans ?received Him, ahaving seen ...read more

    A church can call itself Christian but it does not mean that everyone in that church are true believers of Christ!

    Today is known as Palm Sunday, also known as the Triumphal Entry of Jesus Christ to Jerusalem! We will incorporate our study of Hebrews 6 to our worship by reminding ourselves of the significance of Holy week (Palm Sunday, Good Friday with Passover/Communion and the Resurrection)!

    This challenging passage gives us insight into Paul's handling of contention.

    - Let me acknowledge up front that this can be a challenging passage. It’s not easily clear how all the pieces go together. As we wander through these six verses, hopefully we can bring them together in a meaningful way. THE STARTING POINT OF THE CHURCH FIGHT: Paul didn’t measure up to their ...read more

    Stop building churches where there is already a good work in place! No need for fifteen churches of like faith within twenty miles of each other. We are wasting God's gifts and manpower and giving reason for the enemies of God to blaspheme.

    An email was promoting a church growth conference aka multiplication. I think it is fairly evident why we have an issue. You cannot have multiplication until we cease division that comes from addition of fleshly efforts that subtracts from the testimony of the Lord causing the wrong answer to the ...read more

    A church must seek change in order that it continue to be relevant John Stott promotes this while holding on the 4 essential marks

    ***NOTE*** I have to confess that at a late hour the night before preaching this sermon the ’goat’ ate my sermon and 11 months of sermons in a folder on my computer. I had to re-write it late that night. I was desperate so I used more of John Stott’s words than was in my original script. I am ...read more
