    The Limits Of Tolerance

    Contributed by Scott Maze on May 24, 2021
     | 3,976 views

    There’s been a shift in American thought over the past several decades. America historically stood for the right to express any opinion. Where we used to believe that you should tolerate my views even when they were false but now, we believe it is wrong to call anybody’s views’ false.

    Find the book of Jude with me. There are books in your Bible and there are letters in your Bible, but you could probably think of Jude more like a postcard. There’s been a shift in American thought over the past several decades. America historically stood for the right to express any opinion. ...read more

    Self Series

    Contributed by Chuck Gohn on Aug 24, 2022
     | 2,858 views

    This sermon focuses on culture's addiction to creating various versions of a "false-self" and how only God gives us access to the "true-self" made available through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.

    If you have your Bibles with you today, open up to Matthew 16:24. That is the passage, and by the end of the sermon, I promise I will get to it. If you have been here for a while, you know that we have begun a summer series called “Do not conform. Be transformed”. That series is based on the ...read more

     | 4,289 views

    This exposition of Zechariah 10:1-4 deals with God's way of blessing his people: thru the principle of Ask and Receive. His intervention on behalf of his people by sending Messiah is also expounded.

    Our text today is in Zechariah 10:1-4. I. God’s INVITATION is to Ask and Receive We begin with the first word in that chapter: “Ask.”i God’s method of blessing His people begins there. He begins with an invitation to ask and receive. And that begins with our acknowledgement that every good gift ...read more

    Adoration Of God Alone

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jul 30, 2020
     | 4,686 views

    The words adore and adoration have been trivialized over the past few decades. Do we worship and adore the God of Heaven and earth alone or are others drawing our worship-attention away to places it does not belong?

    Adoration of God Alone Today we will be reading from 1 Chronicles 29:10-13 Adoration. I don’t know if you realized this but every song we sang this morning contained the word “adore” or “adoration”. “Father, I adore You … Jesus, I adore You … Spirit, I adore You…” “Holy, holy, holy! All the ...read more

    How do you commit idolatry when you don’t believe in idols? How do you fall from grace when grace is what you most affirm? How can you be in bondage while you revel in freedom? How can you know so much when your great knowledge keeps you from knowing what

    Introduction How do you commit idolatry when you don’t believe in idols? How do you fall from grace when grace is what you most affirm? How can you be in bondage while you revel in freedom?

    A Blood Donor Saved My Life Series

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,735 views

    What does the blood of Christ do for us, and why is it such a powerful tool for God to use for fixing our broken lives?

    The American Red Cross in Oklahoma had this interesting poster sent to churches: "I gave my blood. Christ gave his. I gave a pint. He gave all. The needle is small, sharp. The nails were large, dull. The table - soft, restful. The cross - rough, painful. The nurses - kind, gentle. The soldiers ...read more

    If you devote your life to trying to please others you will find yourself enslaved to their opinions and approval.

    INTRODUCTION If you’re not involved in our Student Ministry at Green Acres, you may not know that it’s called “The One-Ten Student Ministry.” Do you know why? It’s not because the Student Center is located on Highway 110. It’s because the theme of the ministry ...read more

    Israel’s Cleansing Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Oct 10, 2022
     | 2,356 views

    This exposition of Zechariah 13:1-6 explores the spiritual transformation of Israel prior to the Millennium. The fountain for cleansing from sin will be opened for all of Israel on that day. Today that fountain is opened to all who will receive Christ.

    Intro In our previous message, the national repentance of Israel is described in Zechariah 12:10-14. That work of grace involved three steps: 1st God initiated this salvation process by pouring out on Israel “a spirit of grace and supplication”i on the people. 2nd Christ is revealed to the nation ...read more

    Return To Me Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Sep 12, 2022
     | 1,535 views

    Superheroes have captured Americans’ imagination for a long time. We all know the saying, “It’s a bird, it’s a plane, no, it’s Superman!” It’s not an angel coming. It’s not a prophet coming. It’s the Lord Himself coming. “It’s a prophet. It’s an angel. No, it’s the Lord.”

    I invite you to find the book of Malachi with me if you will [page 954 in your pew Bibles]. Today’s Scripture You have wearied the LORD with your words. But you say, “How have we wearied him?” By saying, “Everyone who does evil is good in the sight of the LORD, and he delights in them.” Or by ...read more

    Unless done in love, all of our work and sacrifice will be for nothing. How can we maintain a motivation of love?

    When you heard today’s text being read, you could be forgiven for wondering if you had inadvertently wandered into a wedding. Because the reading of chapter thirteen of Saint Paul’s first letter to the Corinthians has become as much a fixture of marriage ceremonies as unity candles, ...read more

    A Mother's Love

     | 6,023 views

    It takes a special kind of woman to be what the Bible defines as a mother.

    There is a common myth among women that says “having children makes one a mother.” This notion is as silly as believing that having a piano makes one a musician. That’s because it takes a special kind of woman to be what the Bible defines as a mother. The biblical word translated “mother” is the ...read more

    What had Martha done wrong? Wasn't she being a servant? Wasn't she serving Jesus and his men? Was Jesus telling her she shouldn't have been preparing the meal? Or was there something else wrong here?

    OPEN: A mother and her young daughter had been driving on the highway for a couple of hours and traffic had been difficult… in fact, some of the other drivers had been downright frustrating. They wouldn’t use their turn signals, she’d been cut off, tail gated, and then there had ...read more

    Yahweh - The Unique God

    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,304 views

    The Christian faith is different from any other religion in the world. This was true in the ancient near east and it is as true today as it was then. Being unique doesn't necessarily make something right. What is it that makes Yahweh the one true God and different from the rest?

    Yahweh – The Unique God Please stand as we read our newest memory Scripture together … 1 Peter 4:10 “Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.” And our memory refresher verse(s) for today is(are) … 1 John ...read more

    Return to the Lord and let Him remind you of His commitment to you and renew your faith to face life’s sorrows.

    There is an old West African proverb which says, “The man who tries to walk two roads will split his pants.” (Janet Weiss, Leesburg, Florida, heard in a conversation by her father, a missionary to the Maninka tribe; www.PreachingToday.com) That’s the way it is with those who try to live for the ...read more
