Entering The Race Pt.1

Contributed by Howard Strickland on Sep 4, 2011

Paul uses the analogy of a runner to describe the Christians spiritual growth. No living-breathing believer has reached their goal of Christlikeness, but like the runner in a race, you must continue to pursue it. To pursue means to begin to dream, to p

Entering the Race Philippians 3: 12-14 Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. 13 Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those ...read more

"Hope Out Of Darkness"

Contributed by Brad Henry on Sep 13, 2011

God can heal any wound. This is the story of a firefighter that I met that was trapped in the ruble of 9/11.

Hope does not come without suffering. Romans 5:3,4 “Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.” In this verse we see in order how hope is found. First something in our life ...read more

How God Works

Contributed by Jon Mackinney on Mar 28, 2012

Here is a very famous story, but we have to get passed the "wow!" response. It is a model of how God works, and how He uses His servants to accomplish His purposes.

Passage: Daniel 6:1-28 Intro: There are not a lot of songs written about people of the Bible other than Jesus. 1. can’t think of one about Paul, or Peter, or John. 2. but I grew up singing one about Daniel. “Standing on a purpose firm, heeding God’s command. Honor them the ...read more

The Eunuch Who Was Cut-Off From God

Contributed by Bryan Beverly on Aug 22, 2014

This text teaches us that we are not whole unless we are connected to God through Jesus Christ.

26Then an angel of the Lord said to Philip, “Get up and go toward the south to the road that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.” (This is a wilderness road.) 27So he got up and went. Now there was an Ethiopian eunuch, a court official of the Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, in charge of ...read more

Paul's Sermon At Athens: The Historical Background

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on May 31, 2021

This is the first of a series of messages centering on the sermon that the Apostle Paul gave before the groups of philosophers in Athens, and how it is a perfect model for Biblical apologetics and evangelism.

People today tend to sidestep, ignore, deter, apologize for and question the concept of reality in a world which gladly embraces the concept that reality, truth, and fact are not absolute but just a matter of opinion, experience, or personal interpretation. We have become terrified of the ...read more

"hate Speech" According To Jesus: A Refresher Course

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 5, 2022

The Lord Jesus warned His disciples that they would be hated for telling the truth about sin, spiritual death, and the need for redemption found only in Him (John 14:6; Acts 4:12). This message is still hated by the world today. Some things never change.

I want to begin with defining a term describing the attempts of Christians who, no matter how well-meaning their intentions, somehow believe that they can make friends with a worldview that hates them no matter what they do, say, or imitate. They bend over backwards trying to "fit in" ...read more

Throw Off Hindrances

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Mar 1, 2022

Many things are hindrances to our life, spiritual growth, and focus. Unless we throw off hindrances, we are not going to hit the final goal. Usually many start a good start but never ended joyfully.

Throw off Hindrances, Hebrews 12:1-3 Introduction: Some of us are waiting for this Lent. This season helps us to come closer to the WORD, rectify some of our DEEDs and help grow in Christ. We hope to celebrate the resurrection day (Commonly called Easter) to bring new life, energy, grace along ...read more

Jumping Jehoshaphat Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Mar 9, 2022

Living in a godly and wise manner is not just about us; it glorifies God and brings a wealth of benefits to others. Living to honor God is really about loving God and loving others, and Jehoshaphat excelled at doing just that – most of the time.

Jumping Jehoshaphat? (2 Chronicles 17-20) Note: The promises of blessings for obedience in Deuteronomy 28:1-14 were probably seen more during the time of Jehoshaphat than any other king. You might want to have a Scripture reading from this Deuteronomy passage as a complement to the ...read more

Sermon On The Challenges Of Life

Contributed by William Meakin on Nov 22, 2021

Amongst the many interpretations, the challenges of life have been defined as "The situation of being faced with something that needs great mental or physical effort in order to be done successfully and therefore tests a person's ability."

Roy T. Bennett, the author of “The Light in the Heart” once remarked: “Every challenge you face today makes you stronger tomorrow. The challenge of life is intended to make you better, not bitter.” James 1:2-4 reminds us: “Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for ...read more

Those Who Beheld The Glory Of Christ

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 20, 2021

In John's prologue, he presents the Lord Jesus Christ as God the Creator who came into the world to be among us and is due all majesty, glory, and splendor.

In the previous verses of John's prologue, he has presented the Lord Jesus Christ as the One who was in the beginning with God and Who is God, the source of life and the light for all to see yet was rejected by His own people. Those who followed Him, though few, received the right to be ...read more

Sermon On Worship

Contributed by William Meakin on Jun 4, 2022

Worship is defined as the feeling or expression of reverence and adoration for a deity.

Dennis Joachim Ignacious, a Malaysian-born diplomat and author once remarked: “When we lift our hands in praise and worship, we break spiritual jars of perfume over Jesus. The fragrance of our praise fills the whole earth and touches the heart of God.” Romans 12:1 confirms: “I appeal to you ...read more
