    Christians Must Be Prepared To Suffer For Christ

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 3, 2019
     | 5,626 views

    The Prosperity movement has given Americans a wrong view of God -- that He won’t let Christians suffer. But the truth is that suffering is a vital part of Christianity. Suffering should be viewed as a blessing, a cause for rejoicing, and a sign of future reward.

    CHRISTIANS MUST BE PREPARED TO SUFFER FOR CHRIST Matt. 24:9 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: MAGIC AT THE PASTRY SHOP 1. Two broke and hungry best friends, Dave and John, went into a pastry shop. Dave suddenly whisks three cookies into his pocket with lightning speed. The baker didn't notice. Dave ...read more

    Back To Bible Living Series

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 15, 2022
     | 1,998 views

    Surveys show that 94% of Americans own a Bible; 90% of us believe it still applies today—yet only half of us read it weekly (including church), and only 29% read it weekly outside of church. There is a disconnect here.

    Opening illustration: Back to school! How about “Back to the Bible” Surveys show that 94% of Americans own a Bible; 90% of us believe it still applies today—yet only half of us read it weekly (including church), and only 29% read it weekly outside of church.

    Should We Change The Way We Do Church?

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jan 23, 2023
     | 3,635 views

    The decline in North American Christianity is prompting various efforts to revise the way we do church. Some of these efforts are clearly counterproductive. Acts 2:42-47 reveals eight practices that must be incorporated in any church model.

    Should we change the way we do church? That question is being asked by a lot of people in America. Something is not working as it should. Almost everyone agrees on that. For the first time in U.S. history, church membership fell below the majority according to a Gallup poll conducted in 2020. This ...read more

    In this Fourth of July sermon, Pastor Ed Young uses the colors of the American flag to illustrate biblical principles that can help us experience true liberation from our sins and find true freedom through a relationship with Christ.

    "Nicodemus Wears A White Hat”

    Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Mar 11, 2021
     | 3,337 views

    Good cowboys wear white hats. Nicodemus was depending on his "goodness", keeping Jewish rules and his connection to Abraham. Our new American theology is not different....we want to depend on our own goodness. Jesus is not "one" way, but the only way.

    In Jesus Holy Name Lent IV March 14, 2021 Text: John 3:17,18a “Nicodemus Wears a White Hat” Who wears white hats? In the old silent movie days you always knew who the good cowboys were. They wore white hats. The bad cowboys wore back hats. That way you always knew who the ...read more

    What Is Really True In The World? Hell, Faith, And Heaven

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 30, 2023
     | 1,085 views

    Today, though, the Lord gave me a three-fold message that he wants me to share. First of all, we're going to talk about hell, then we're going to talk about Jesus Christ and the gospel, then we're going to talk about heaven.

    If I go to my bank account and say, "well, I don't know what's true" that's not going to work. There will be an amount listed. It's either correct or it isn't. That's how it is with history. That's how it is with science. That's how it is with archaeology. ...read more

    Beyond Comfort

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Jul 6, 2011
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,994 views

    Sometimes God gives us the opportunity to use the lessons we’ve learned and the comfort He’s given us during difficult times to help others in special ways. God doesn’t comfort us to make us comfortable; He comforts us to make us comforters.

    Opening illustration: A medical school program in New York gives students who are training for geriatric medicine a unique opportunity. They experience life as nursing home residents for 10 days. They learn some of the struggles of maneuvering a wheelchair and being raised out of bed with a lift, ...read more

    Sin: Keeping Up Appearances

    Contributed by Peter Loughman on Mar 19, 2007

     | 2,356 views

    Are we more concerned about appearing Christian than we are with being a Christian. How far will we go to keep a Christian reputation and hide our sin?

    A rather pompous deacon was endeavoring to impress upon a class of boys the importance of living the Christian life. "Why do people call me a Christian?" the man asked. After a moment’s pause, one youngster said, "Maybe it’s because they don’t know you." I wonder…..could that be said of us? ...read more

    Racism is a sin that roots itself in many hearts and comes from favoritism. James tells us that favoritism has no place in the Church and therefore no place in the heart of a believer in Christ.
