    We live in a materialistic world. How do we find contentment in a world designed to breed discontent?

    We live in a materialistic society. Everywhere you turn there are people telling you what you need or what you can buy to make you “happy”. It may be a new form of exercise (with three easy payments), a way to cook food that will be more beneficial to your health (more easy payments), a ...read more

    The Straight Shootin’ Preacher Series

    Contributed by Chuck Sligh on Aug 24, 2014
     | 5,790 views

    Many preachers today don’t preach the Gospel straight. In his 2nd great sermon, Peter "preached it straight" to the Jews of Jerusalem who had rejected Jesus as their Messiah and Savior. This sermon dissects Peter's sermon and mines it for Gospel truths.

    The Straight Shootin’ Preacher Series: Acts Chuck Sligh August 24, 2014 TEXT: Please turn in your Bibles to Acts 3:11 INTRODUCTION The last thing we need today are preachers who don’t preach the Gospel straight.

    In this lesson we learn that because of seven exhortations given by Jesus, Christians must not be judgmental.

     | 8,433 views

    Wikipedia states that, “Who's your daddy? is an expression used as a boastful claim of dominance over the intended listener. We see it in sports when someone beats their opponent. It’s like another saying, “I own you”. It’s fitting to use in a spiritual s

     | 25,129 views

    The full wonder of God's glorious wisdom & power are utterly beyond human understanding. It staggers even the most mature Christian mind, including the mind of the apostle himself. God's wisdom is as inscrutable as it is unfathomable to mere humans. Here

    At the very heart of hypocrisy is the abiity to spot a speck in another person's eye while being blind to the log in one's own eye.

    This is an amazing passage of scripture… it is most often quoted by those who do not follow Christ and directed at those who do follow Christ. Hypocrisy is the number one sin Christians are accused of doing. Title: Big Specks and Little Logs (The idea is that we tend to play up the sins of ...read more

     | 5,551 views

    The Jews had a problem with Jesus healing the cripple by the pool on the Sabbath. Jesus used the opportunity to try to show them that he was the real deal; and quite frankly-they were not.
