    based on 210 ratings
     | 29,132 views

    How to give yourself a "pep talk" to encourage you to do better and make an eternal difference.

    HOW TO TALK TO YOURSELF By Jerry Falwell INTRODUCTION When I used to play football or sports, and when I missed a tackle or didn’t make a play, I’d talk to myself, “Come on, you can get this guy.” But that was just a “pep talk.” Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn’t. Today, I’m going to ...read more

    Religion Condemned Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 25, 2008
     | 3,595 views

    James exposes the difference between religion that comforts us and religion that reveals the power of Christ among us.

    JAMES 1:26 RELIGION CONDEMNED “If anyone thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person’s religion is worthless.” Someone has said, “You can’t believe half of what you hear, but you can repeat it.” This points out a real problem in the church today—we ...read more

    The Faces Of Opposition

    Contributed by Jon Mackinney on Dec 7, 2006
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,557 views

    We should not be surprised that the gospel is opposed. We’d like to think that everyone will just accept this wonderful news, but that is not the case. Let’s look at the faces of that opposition.

    Passage: Acts 17:1-33 Intro: One of the recurring themes of Acts is opposition. 1. mostly from the Jews, but others as well. 2. it was as well as recurring theme in the life of ministry of Christ. 3. we can draw this principle; that where the gospel goes, opposition will arise in one form or ...read more

    Dr. Banner looks and acts just like everyone else, but then when stressed he is transformed into someone, or something, that is totally different from who he was before. He becomes the totally different creature called THE HULK!

The basic storyline goes like this… Dr. Bruce Banner is a nuclear physicist who is looking to harness and use powerful gamma rays. At a test site, he is accidentally bathed in ...read more

    Who Is Jesus?

    Contributed by Ken Henson on Sep 17, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,989 views

    Different people have different ideas of who Jesus is. To some they do not mind including Him as one of the gods and to others He is one of the prophets...but what does the Bible say who Jesus is?

    Illustration: A Sunday school child was busy doing something, while everyone else was paying attention to the teacher. She had a piece of paper and some crayons, and was doing some art work. The Sunday school teacher being observant asked the child, “Sweetheart, what are you ...read more

    Harmony Amidst Diverse Opinions Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Nov 1, 2021
     | 1,858 views

    Differences between believers are not always about the Biblical vs. the Unbiblical; most differences are about the extra-Biblical or a misunderstanding of what Christianity is. We must therefore be careful in determining the hills for which we are willing to die.

    Harmony Amidst Diverse Opinions (Romans 14:1-23) 1. My young son ran to me, crying. “Daddy, I stubbed my toe,” he sobbed. “Let me kiss it and make it better,” I said. “Which toe was it?” My son answered, “The one that has no roast beef.” [rd.com] 2. Would that life was so simple. It never is. ...read more

    Contributed by Mark Engler on Sep 28, 2017
     | 8,112 views

    Discipling is a process over time that involves many different people, many different settings and situations. And discipling generally begins in small groups and moves to the larger groups. Sometimes as small of groups as two people as it did with me.

    Back to the Basics - Discipling ME As I sat down at my computer this week with thoughts of Discipling on my mind I could not help but think about my own. My own journey and the discipling of received as I become a Christian and after. When I was growing up my dad tried to be a good role model ...read more

     | 11,897 views

    Funeral sermon for Mary Henry, aged 101, prayer warrior and Bible student, who, like the Biblical Mary, could accept whatever the Word taught her.

    Submission is not subservience. Humility is not the same thing as low self-esteem. In fact, it takes a strong and certain heart to be submissive and not subservient, to be humble and not cowardly. If ever there was a strong and certain heart, that was Mary Henry. She knew how to submit to all ...read more

    The Exclusivity Of Christ

    based on 26 ratings
     | 4,742 views

    In a day of political correctness where society and religionists teach an all embracing God that accepts all who come to Him regardless of the way, consider the exclusivity of Christ.

    THE EXCLUSIVITY OF CHRIST ACTS 4:12 Introduction: We are living in a significantly different culture in America from when we were young, and from what our grandparents or even our parents encountered. No longer can we think and speak in terms of a America as having Christian or Judeo-Christian ...read more

    If we want to make a real difference in people’s lives, then we must emphasize love, not law.

    This last week, I came across a website that cataloged what they called “The Best Church Bulletin Bloopers.” They are sentences that actually appeared in church bulletins or were announced in church services.

     | 4,517 views

    This message is about living as one with Christ. When we accept Christ we are joined with Him and that means something. This message illustrates how we become one with Him.

    When One + One Doesn’t Equal Two Scripture: Genesis 2:24; First Corinthians 1:10; 12:12-13; Ephesians 4:1-6 In my previous two messages discussing what it means to be independent together with God and God’s plumb line, I talked about what happens when we come into agreement with God and begin ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,292 views

    There must come a time of godly division when we accept or reject Jesus. John, in this part of his gospel, is pushing his readers to consider their belief about Jesus.

    You may remember this Sunday as the Sunday that Church was no longer safe. (Use video camera). Once in a while, for special occasions and things, we have video taped our worship time and there has been a camera on my face up here. What would happen if we took the focus off the front of the ...read more
