     | 1,996 views

    Since the gospel is the POWER of God unto salvation, we can PROCLAIM it to any audience, knowing God’s PURPOSE will be fulfilled.

    Babbling For Jesus Acts 17:16-34 Turn to Acts 17 in your Bible. I'm going to be preaching a message I've entitled "Babbling For Jesus." I heard about a preacher's son that asked his dad, "Dad, what's the highest number you've ever counted to?" The preacher ...read more

    Who Is Your God? Series

    based on 3 ratings
     | 11,350 views

    Paul talked a lot about his faith and his Jesus because he knew who his God was. And what Paul did is something you and I can do... if we know God the way he did. What did Paul know about God that we sometimes don't?

    A farmer decided he knew as much as any doctor, so he opened doctor’s office in town. He charged $500 a visit, but he promised that if he couldn’t cure you he’d give you $1,000. The town’s regular doctor was offended by that and decided to expose him as a fraud, so He went to the farmer’s office ...read more

    Providence - God's Ongoing Work

    Contributed by Todd Catteau on Feb 22, 2022
     | 2,361 views

    Is God active in the world or a passive observer? The doctrine of Providence claims he is the former - the creator who is still sustaining the world and working in it to bring about his purposes. This sermon explores the ways He is active and the peace providence gives us.

    Providence Today I want to talk about God – shouldn’t surprise you since we are in church • He’s a being that the more you know the more you don’t know • God is knowable but incomprehensible • We will never totally understand everything about God but that shouldn’t keep us from knowing what we can ...read more

    Paul’s Mars Hill Sermon Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 23, 2022
     | 3,965 views

    What's going on here? Paul preaches a message without using Scripture? He quotes from an inscription on a pagan shrine? No follow up for the new believers in Athens? We better take a closer look at Paul's Mars Hill sermon.

    The context of Paul’s Mars Hill Sermon When we look at Paul’s Mars Hill sermon given in Athens in Acts 17, he is well into his second missionary journey. His plans were changed early in the journey when the Holy Spirit kept him from preaching the word in Asia and then he received his Macedonian ...read more

    We have the world’s best product, Do you have a marketing plan?

    My least favorite course back when I was working on my MBA at the U of MN was marketing. I never could figure out how to position a product so that it would sell. The question was always, should I make it upscale and sell it to fewer people at a higher price, or should I mass market something in ...read more

    The Existence And Presence Of Almighty God, Part 1

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 16, 2023
     | 746 views

    The presence and personal interest of God in the affairs of His creation is evident to those who have eyes to see (Romans 1:18-22). He gives us proof of His existence, regardless of the world's blindness to the obvious.

    As the days draw nearer to the promised return of the Lord Jesus Christ (John 14:1-3; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; Titus 2:11-15), we are told in Scripture that humanity will not welcome Him with open arms, but will instead grow more hateful towards Him, doing everything possible to resist His ...read more

    The Existence And Presence Of Almighty God", Part 2

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 24, 2023
     | 1,180 views

    God's existence is obvious (Romans 1:18-20) through creation and our conscience. The evidence is there for anyone willing to take their blinders off, swallow their pride, and humble themselves.

    The world cannot comprehend the idea of a precise, preconceived, set, rational, and personal creation of a God who is outside of space, time, and matter, and able to put everything into existence for a reason. They wish to stay blind to the obvious and shut their ears to the truth that we are ...read more

    What attitudes were seen toward the resurrection? Some attitudes were understandable, but some weren't. What is your attitude toward the resurrection?

    This is Easter Sunday, an especially important day in the heart and lives of those who love the Lord Jesus Christ. Over 2000 years ago our Lord was crucified, buried, and rose again, 1 Corinthians 15:1-4. This was a new beginning for us and all who would follow and serve Christ. This is why we meet ...read more

    Alternative Creation Theory No.2 - The Gap Theory

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on May 21, 2023
     | 1,918 views

    There are four "theories" used by some believers to explain our origins apart from the biblical account of creation. We looked at "theistic evolution". Now we will look at the "Gap Theory". Is it a legitimate alternative? We need to examine its claims.

    Four basic creation "theories" have been promoted by Christian theists over the years as alternatives to the biblical account of creation as recorded in the book of Genesis. They are theistic evolution, the gap theory, the day/age theory, and progressive creationism, each one contrived ...read more

    The piety and counsel of the Holy Spirit can be summed up in the word "guidance." The Holy Spirit is our guide and counselor, leading us to make wise decisions and helping us to live a life that is pleasing to God.

    Alternate Theory Of Creation No. 4 -Progressive Creationism

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on May 25, 2023
     | 1,358 views

    This is the last of four messages on the alternatives of creation often presented to skeptics and the scientific community apart from what is described in Genesis 1. This final message deals with "progressive creationism", another example of the futility of man's "wisdom".

    We have looked at four alternative theories that some Christians use to either defend or explain to a skeptical world how everything came into being instead of what is clearly presented in Genesis 1. The world system took advantage of our withdrawal from the scientific community soon after the ...read more

    Christ came to make His Father known. Mankind was created to worship. If God is not clearly revealed, man will create something to worship. We are called to reveal the Unknown God to the world!

    Sermon # 29 - The Power Of Preaching The Word Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 27, 2024

     | 764 views

    Jonah preached and the people of Nineveh repented. Preaching the word of God should be taken seriously, should be based on the word of God. Here are some important aspects of preaching which when followed will certainly produce a bountiful harvest.

    We read in Jonah 3:5, “The people of Nineveh believed God. They decided to stop eating for a time to think about their sins. They put on special clothes to show they were sorry. All the people in the city did this, from the most important to the least important.” (ERV) The people of Nineveh ...read more
