    In life everybody faces discouragement but the levels of management differ. Others are quick to overcome it while others take a while and some succumb to it and give up.

    This season of COVID -19 has caused a lot of stress in all aspects of life. Many people’s emotional status is messed up. So much fear, hopelessness and discouragement are looming around. So this sermon is meant to encourage believers that no matter how terrible your situation, hope will arise, ...read more

  • Building The Lord’s House

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 6, 2022

     | 5,523 views

    If the church is going to promote abundant life and begin attracting people, it must become more than just a physical structure. It must be seen as a house, or rather, a home. It must become a place where people feel safe and secure.

    There was once a story in the Oregonian, Portland’s morning newspaper, of a man who had helped construct a Roman Catholic Church in Mexico. He used inferior materials in order to make more money. At the dedication of the building, the roof collapsed, killing many of the worshipers including the ...read more

  • The Depths Of Despair

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 6, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,015 views

    This message looks at some Bible passages on the cave of despair. How do people tend to act when they find themselves in such a dark place? What do we need to do, in order for God to deliver us into a place of hope and life?

    I want to get us started with our message this morning by sharing an illustration that I’ve used on numerous occasions: Back when I was in college, I used to go cave exploring with a friend as often as possible. Sometimes we went about twice a week. Well, one evening we followed a lead for a new ...read more

  • Grace From Galatians (8 Of 19)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 7, 2022
     | 1,453 views

    One of the exciting things in the Christian life is to see someone come to know the Lord as their Savior. To know without a doubt that they have been gloriously saved from the bondage of sin.

    However, one of the saddest things in the Christian life is to see someone who professes to know the Lord but lives their life in such a way as to cast doubt on their salvation. Illus: Evangelist Ding Teuling is often asked how many were converted in some of his meetings. He tells them he really ...read more

  • "Peter, Feed My Sheep” (6 Of 21)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 11, 2022
     | 1,849 views

    A fellow was taking a census. He came to a home where a little girl answered the door.

    The man said, "Young lady, may I please talk with your Mother?" The young girl said, "She is not here, she is in the insane asylum.” The man said, "I am sorry to hear that, would you let me talk to your daddy?" She said, "He isn't here either, he is in jail.” He ...read more

  • The Body Of Christ

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,061 views

    If we desire to impact our community for Jesus Christ, then we need to be unified. Using the illustration of the church as a human body, Paul shared how a church that is divided will fail to function properly; or perhaps, even fail to survive.

    “A father asked his young son to break a bundle of sticks. He returned a little later to find the boy frustrated in the task. He had raised the bundle high and smashed it on his knee, but he only bruised his knee. He had set the bundle against a wall and stomped real hard with his foot, but the ...read more

  • The Refiner’s Fire

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 13, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,985 views

    In this passage, Ezekiel described the Babylonian exile as being the crucible in which Israel was melted down, and the godly (the silver) were separated from the unrighteous (the dross). The purpose of the refiner's fire is spiritual purification.

    I wish to begin our message with an illustration: There was a dedicated Christian woman who once visited a tourist attraction, which happened to be a working replica of a pioneer village; and one of the manned displays she observed was a silversmith shop. The woman watched the silversmith as he ...read more

  • Acts Of The Apostles (15 Of 39)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 14, 2022
     | 2,105 views

    After the young Christian church had been through much persecution, it was called upon to do two unusual things:

    • Accept Saul, who had been one of the worst enemies it had. • Accept the Gentiles as part of the Christian church. We must remember, the young Christian church was composed of Jews who, although saved, had been raised from childhood to consider that anyone who was a gentile, was on the ...read more

  • A Conversation With A Woman At The Well

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 15, 2022
     | 3,868 views

    Today we want to look at a conversation between the Lord Jesus and a woman at the well. We find this conversation recorded in the gospel of John.

    As many of you know, John is not included in the synoptic gospels. WHY? The Lord’s earthly ministry was around 3 1/2 years. • The synoptic gospels, Matthew, Mark, and Luke deal with the last year of His ministry. They dealt with a lot of things in His ministry, but not in much detail. • The ...read more

  • Some Things To Show Before We Go

    There are a lot of jokes about growing old. For example, it has been said:

    We're over the hill but don't feel sad This side of the hill ain't all that bad. So give us "five" and then a smile To us who have been here for awhile. With by-pass pain and mended hip And plumbing fixtures prone to drip; We all may seem a sorry lot, But we rejoice for what ...read more

  • Life Is One Big Test

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 23, 2022
     | 1,514 views

    Someone said, “Life is a test”. Life is one big university that is in session 365 days a year.

    I do not know about you, but I have never enjoyed taking a test. Now I can remember when I was in college. It seemed as if some of my classmates enjoyed taking a test because it gave them a chance to show off how smart they were. But I never had a lot to show off, so I never enjoyed taking a ...read more

  • Who Can And Cannot Be Saved

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 25, 2022
     | 2,152 views

    The scripture says, "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."

    This verse of scripture sounds simple enough, but often even a familiar text needs some explanation. Something needing an explanation makes me think of the following little story: Illus: There was a criminal who was put in prison. The prison life had many new and different aspects. One of the ...read more

  • Facing The Storm Of Fear

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 28, 2022
     | 1,362 views

    Something we tell our children during fearful times is, “Do not be afraid!”

    It is easy to speak these words but it is not always easy not to be afraid. Illus: Have you heard about the man who owned a parrot that swore like a sailor? This parrot was so terrible, it could swear for five minutes straight without repeating itself. One day the man finally got tired of this ...read more

  • The Return Of The Prodigal

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 29, 2022
     | 2,791 views

    The fifteenth chapter of Luke gives us a wealth of information about a certain Jewish family.

    For example, we know from this scripture: • “A certain man had two sons.” (v. 11) • The younger son seemed to be a problem child. Look at verse 12. We read, “And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me...” • -The younger son was ...read more
