     | 2,787 views

    The world is moving to a universal conformity as governments legislate for uniformity and control. But what about the Christian for he/she must not compromise the faith. As evil increases how will that impact Christians. Compromise is an ever increasing danger.

    We were created by God and we are living beings because He gave us His breath

    God Himself created man in His own image and likeness - Genesis 2:7. We belong to God and we are His children that He loves so much - John 3:16. God in His love and in His infinite mercy could not give us anything less than to give us His breath. In giving us his breath He expects nothing less of ...read more

    Jesus Takes Questions: Part 2 Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 3, 2021
     | 3,593 views

    Allow me to set the scene. It’s Tuesday, just seventy-two hours away from His death and about sixty-four hours away from Judas’ famous kiss. So many items are going on Tuesday that we are devoting three Sundays to the happenings on Tuesday.

    This a three-month long study of just one week in the life of Jesus. The power of this week lies in all that happened. And it deserves both retelling and a careful scrutiny. Bracketed by Palm Sunday on one end and Easter Sunday on the other, this is the most important week in history. On Friday, ...read more

    A good night's sleep is hard to come by. What does it mean to "sleep in heavenly peace."

    Good morning! Please turn in your Bibles to Luke chapter 2. I’d like you guys to think about the last time you went shopping for a mattress. It’s kind of a big deal. When Trish and I first got married, the mattress on our bed was the first major purchase we made together. I remember the sales ...read more

     | 4,208 views

    “If God had a Twitter account, what would he tweet?” The Bible contains five short one-chapter books. The second, Philemon, is a tweet about a runaway slave changed by the gospel of Jesus.

    Tweets from God: Philemon Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 5/22/2016 Last Sunday I began a series I’m calling Tweets from God.

    Under Authority

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Nov 29, 2022
     | 1,235 views

    What we perhaps don’t realize is that Christians are also under authority, civilians enlisted in the same cause, fighting evil and promoting the good.

    I was watching an old Humphrey Bogart movie the other night, called Action in the North Atlantic. It was about the merchant marine in WWII, not about the navy. I was particularly interested because my brother Jeremy up in Alaska was in the merchant marine. And then I got even more interested, ...read more

    Conformity Is This World’s Sheep Dog Trials – A Very Serious Matter Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jul 26, 2022
     | 2,256 views

    Conformity is the rule these days under increasing totalitarianism, but that will present problems for the Christian. One stands firm or compromises. To be faithful means holding fast to God’s word, not yielding our faith to distorted values so that we “fit in.” This is a difficult area.

     | 1,285 views

    In our study we’ll see what does the Kingdom Living look like? The Kingdom of God isn’t about religious observance or a set of rules for moral behavior. Rather, it’s about righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit. Join us on this final leg of our journey.

    Unhindered Forgiveness

    Contributed by Kory Labbe on May 6, 2023
     | 2,020 views

    Forgiveness is one of the basic principles of the faith and yeah it is a discipline that is one of the hardest for us to master. Too often forgiveness has been misunderstood and therefore out of grasp of us. Unhindered forgiveness is the first step to radical healing in our lives.

    Life is not easy. This is one thing that you talk to anybody, and everyone will agree that there are hard things that happen in this life. Right before Jesus was arrested in John 16, Jesus is trying to prepare his disciples for what is about to come. Verse 32: 32 But the time is coming—indeed ...read more

    On Membership Part Two Series

    Contributed by Ken Mckinley on Jul 17, 2023
     | 1,448 views

    the Bible clearly teaches that Christians are members of the Body of Christ. But is local church membership Biblical? We examine this in this study. This is not a typical sermon, but more of a Bible study lesson for our congregation.

    In doing some serious study on membership and what that looks like in the Church at a local level one encounters a potential problem. It just isn’t there. That’s not to say it is bad, wrong, or sinful to have formal membership rolls, as having such is very practical and quite helpful to local ...read more
