    "fan Or Follower?" Series

    Contributed by David Henderson on Jun 1, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,389 views

    There are two groups and we have to decide which one we are going to be. There are fans and there are followers. Here’s the difference. Fans only follow when you are popular. Once you make one wrong move they turn against you.

    NOBODY BUT JESUS Fan or Follower? Mark 8:31-38 Let me ask you a very deep question this morning. Serious business. Did you know that Ben & Jerry’s has a new ice cream flavor? They put cookies and actual peanut butter cookie pieces mixed into the ice cream and then they bore a hole down the ...read more

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jan 23, 2013
     | 3,630 views

    The experience of Peter and John gives a clear picture of persecution.

    The early church was doing well. However, last time (Acts 5:1-11) we saw the introduction and the punishment of hypocrisy as it entered the church for the first time. We saw that it was Satan’s way of trying to stop the growth of the church. Well Satan continues in tonight’s passage ...read more

    A vivid picture of martyrdom which should encourage the believer to stand fast when facing persecution.

    Finally, we come to scene 3 in our study of Stephen. Last time we heard a powerful, spirit-filled message from Stephen. He reviewed several of the OT stories and used the examples of Abraham, Joseph, and Moses to lead up to the point of accusing the members of the Sanhedrin of making the same ...read more

    There may be many different things you have placed your trust in, but do you show a real trust in God in your everyday life?

    Our new series is called, “Forward in Faith.” And this morning I want us to spend a few minutes thinking about the What? How? and When? of faith. Faith is a fundamental requirement of life.

    The Illogical Argument Series

    Contributed by Ron Henson on Jun 26, 2015
     | 4,107 views

    The argument that we cannot believe in God because there is no proof of God's existence is illogical. We make this requirement of faith when we do not require it for any other belief we hold.

    The Illogical Argument Job 6:25 How painful are honest words! But what do your arguments prove? Introduction: 1. The Devil loves this argument because…it’s true. There is no proof that God exists. a. Strictly in the sense that we haven’t personally seen him. 1John 1:1 That which ...read more

    The wise men can teach us a lot about how they viewed Jesus -- as King, God, and Sacrifice.

    Christmas is only a few weeks away now, so I thought I would share with you guys some thoughts I’ve had regarding some of the more mysterious characters in Christ’s birth story -- that is, the wise men. The Bible doesn’t give a whole lot of specifics regarding these men, but it ...read more

    God Is The Source Of All Joy

     | 4,793 views

    God is the source of all joy; that is, if you are His.

    God is the Source of all Joy Ecclesiastes 2:24-26 So far, the picture presented by the Preacher is pretty depressing. It is so negative that we have to be on guard not to get caught up in the gloom ourselves. We do this by continuing to remember that Solomon is presenting an under the sun view of ...read more

    Sermon Series by Dr. Tim Pollock

    There are some pretty good movies out there (I always liked The Sound of Music), but there is one thing for sure, Hollywood has distorted the truth about romance and marriage!

    It has been said that there are really only three ways to live in life. One is the way of the rebellious. The second is the way of the religious and the third is the way of the redeemed.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 10,122 views

    We must focus more on our witness than end-time prophecy.

    Don’t Just Read the Signposts, Witness! Luke 21:5-19 Everyone wants to know about the end of time. Books have been written about biblical prophecy. Many have stated days for the Lord’s return which have long passed. But Jesus Himself warns us not to get preoccupied with times and seasons which are ...read more

    Myths are powerful. But should we use them?

    Not a Cunningly Devised Fable 2 Peter 1:16-21 Myths and legends can be powerful teachers of morality. This is why they have been used from time immemorial. They speak of something greater than the story itself. They can be based upon some degree of fact, but this is not necessary for the truth ...read more

    Was Noah's flood moral? Is God immoral? Is Noah's flood just myth?

    How could a good God destroy most of humanity in a worldwide flood? How can modern Christians even believe that such a flood existed? What does the Bible actually say? Flood Morality Can atheists have any basis for a statement questioning the morality of God’s judgment? If there is no God and we ...read more
