    The fact that no one has done it, doesn’t mean it cannot be done.

    It takes me back almost 2.5 years ago when we planted the church in Manila. We were anxious. We did it because we believed that this was God’s direction. Yet, we didn’t quite know what to expect. It is a big step out of our comfort zone. But, as a Church, we pushed some walls down. The fact that no ...read more

    What can the church at Antioch teach us about outreach?

    Someone said, "The purpose of prayer is to draw us close to the heart of God so that our will, our deepest desires, will be those of God & not our own."

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK TEXT: Acts 12:1-19; Luke 22:42-44 ILL. Pres. Abraham Lincoln, in a National Proclamation of Prayer & Repentance in 1863 wrote, “We have ...read more

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on May 24, 2022
     | 3,551 views

    Taking the gospel to the end of the world required the Church to change. Each of us has the opportunity to change and grow until our very last breath. Every living thing must change to survive and fulfill its purpose.

    Sermon – Believers Commissioned for Missions Scripture Lesson Acts 13:1-4 “Among the prophets and teachers of the church at Antioch of Syria were Barnabas, Simeon (called “the black man”), Lucius (from Cyrene), Manaen (the childhood companion of King Herod Antipas, and Saul. 2 One day as these men ...read more

    God Is In The Detours Too

    Contributed by John Gaston on Feb 9, 2015
     | 9,274 views

    Life is full of surprises. With observation, we see that the Holy Spirit is as much in the detours as He is in the plans we carefully map out. Two passages in the New Testament & one in the Old demonstrate the truth of this insight.

    GOD IS IN THE DETOURS TOO Prov. 3:5 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: DECISIONS 1. Harry and Kitty are celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary. 2. Max and Betty said, “You must let us in on your secret - how have you managed to stay married for so long?" 3. Harry turns to Kitty and asks, "OK for ...read more

    This sermon is based on Chapter 9 of Charles Swindoll's book, Paul: A Man of Grace and Grit, by Charles Swindoll. We discuss the fact that like Saul and Barnabas, we need to be ready to obey when God calls for the changes in our lives and ministries.

    Introduction: A. I want to begin this sermon with a statement from Peter T. Forsythe. 1. I believe he was right on when he said, “The first duty of every soul is to find not its freedom, but its Master.” (Warren W. Wiersbe, The Integrity Crisis, Thomas Nelson Pub., 1991, p. ...read more

    The language of Heaven is one of the facets of the sacred secret of God that was revealed at Pentecost.

    “Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.

    Barnabas - Giving & Receiving Encouragement

     | 6,510 views

    Could you use some encouragement? Couldn't we all? See how Barnabas is a wonderful example of the blessings of Christian encouragement. Encoruagement needed, given and received!

    “You look like you could use some encouragement.” Has anyone ever said that to you? Maybe they didn’t have to say it out loud, because the look on your face said it all. It had been a long week at work, it had been a disappointing meeting, it had been a rough day at school, it had been another ...read more

    God Is In Control Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Sep 24, 2018
     | 18,646 views

    In this sermon on Acts 12 and Peter's miraculous escape from prison, we wrestle with the truth that God is in control. This leads to a lot of assurance, but it also leads to trust.

    Introduction: A. You have probably heard the glib saying, “Every cloud has a silver lining.” 1. Although it is true that suffering can lead to blessing, it is easier to say it than experience it. B. One day a young man who sold magazine subscriptions door to door, came home with $25 which he ...read more

    Praying Through A Pandemic

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Feb 2, 2021
     | 6,797 views

    The church ought to pray with great expectation because (1) God sees our trials, (2) God hears our prayers (3) and God will take care of our enemies.

    Acts 12:5 “Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him.” The graphic scene of Acts 12 is not strange to the Church. The church has always faced opposition. Since its inception, the devil has been trying to stop the church and even to ...read more
