Sermons on Abraham And Lot:

Sharing Ministry Together

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 13, 2021

When the volunteer workload is placed on the shoulders of just a handful of people, then these individuals get burnt out; and since they can’t do everything, then a lot of needs go unmet. Ministry is something to be shared among all believers.

I wish to begin our message by sharing a personal account contributed by a pastor who was serving at a church in Washington State during the wake of the Mount St. Hellens eruption. This pastor said, After Mount St. Helens blew up in May 1980, [the] church needed cleaning up. Ash was in the ...read more

Christ Is Not His Last Name!

Contributed by Melvin Newland on Oct 10, 2023

If Christ is not His last name, what is it? It is a descriptive title & it tells us WHO Jesus is. And for us to understand what that means is very important because it can make a lot of difference in our lives.

Reasons To Thank God

The apostle Paul went through a lot of troubles, but he always found reasons to thank God. When writing to the church in Thessalonica he says that there were many things about them for which he continued to be thankful.

The Appointing Of Deacons

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Nov 13, 2023

#35. Who Stands In The Breach? Series

Contributed by James Jackson on Sep 3, 2023

Ezekiel 22:30 has been the theme verse for lots of men's ministries. It is definitely compelling to think we might be the man God is looking for to stand in the gap. But the truth is, we are missing the point.

Who Stands in the Breach? Ezekiel 22: 23-31, 2 Kings 25:1-4 Good morning! Please turn in your Bibles to Ezekiel 22:23. Page 664 in the pew Bibles. On October 4, 1997, me and about a dozen men from the church I was serving at the time jumped on a bus at about 2 in the morning and drove 400 miles ...read more

Thankful For Grace And Forgiveness

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jun 20, 2023

There are a lot of people that live under this same heavy burden. But the good news that I share with each of these persons is the same good news that is available to everyone. Jesus came to forgive and to give grace to all who will trust in Him.

If you were here for our service last Wednesday evening, you know that we studied the same passage that I'm looking at this morning. The passage comes from the Gospel of John 8: 2-11. That passage is all about God's grace and forgiveness. This passage is an excellent example of how ...read more

Tenacity #4 Commitment Series

Contributed by Robert Butler on Oct 12, 2020

When a person is tenacious they are “all in” because they are on a quest. Personally, I have been on a number of quests and struggled at times with being too tenacious. It has had a lot to do with my unwillingness to fail when on mission.

Over the past month, we discussed the development of the quality of Tenacity. Next week we will begin a new series entitled, Scared Straight - Supernatural Stories in the Bible To review, we have learned the definition of be Tenacity.

Who Are We To Judge

Contributed by Kevin Stewart on Apr 4, 2019

Sometimes we wonder why we can’t get a lot of people to come to church. Is it the time that’s not good, or is it too cold or hot in the church, or is it they do not want to be judged when they walk through the door.

The Poverty Mindset

Contributed by Jeff Van Wyk on Apr 13, 2013

One false concept is that poverty has some mysterious refining qualities. Some believe that it is spiritual to be poor. That is not the way God lives and neither does He want us to live that way. Just look how He blessed Abraham. The Bible teaches us that

THE POVERTY MIND-SET Simply put, being poor is not having enough food, clothing, and shelter for your family. It is an urgent unmet need for more money and material possessions. Being poor can also be described as being without a dream that will take you out of poverty. One false concept is that ...read more
