Sermons on A Grace To Be Remembered:

Forgotten Forgiveness

Contributed by Keith Linkous on Sep 5, 2001

For believers, this is the sadest thing that could ever happen. This message causes a self evaluation as to how well we remember that we are saved by grace, and owe our lives to God.

Psalms 32:1-2 and 2 Peter 1:2-9 It really shouldn’t surprise us at the great lengths the Bible speaks of forgiveness. Our entire message, faith, belief, and life is based on that one thing: forgiveness. And in the Bible, in all the various ways forgiveness is discussed, there stands out, ...read more

Stop Chasing Shadows! Series

Follow Jesus--Not Your Feelings Series

Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 9, 2006

Are Your Satisfied?

Contributed by Perry Greene on Nov 23, 2011

God wants us to bless (and thank) him AFTER he blesses us. It is easy to be God-conscious when we are in need; it is another thing when we are satisfied.

We have grown in numbers, wealth and power as no other nation has ever grown. But we have forgotten God. We have forgotten the gracious Hand which ...read more
