    An Annoying, Discombobulating, Fuzzy-Toothed Inconvenience

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Nov 10, 2010
     | 3,582 views

    At the end of a year, we can choose to let go of things that have weighed us down in the previous year. We can lose some of the baggage that we carry around and choose to replace it with the love of Christ.

    How many times have you stood forsaken at the baggage carousel, watching the luggage track spit out piece after piece of luggage, but never yours? Why is it, when all chance of my suitcase ever showing up is gone, I feel compelled to stand there and watch the few remaining orphan bags circling ...read more

    The restored community was lapsing into the same sins that brought on the ruin of their fathers & that sin was their failure to obey the Word from their hearts. The people must learn the lesson that the nation's life centers around its attitude toward an

    ZECHARIAH 7: 8-14 FAILING TO OBEY THE WORD The emphasis of the second message in this third section is to draw an even closer connection with the past to the present.

     | 10,643 views

    The story of Sarai, Hagar, and Abram is really a story about how people deal with issues of faith . . . especially when our faith is being tested by God’s providence.

    God’s Providence: Whose Son are You? Scripture: Galatians 4:21-31 Genesis 16:1-4; 21:8-14 Yesterday, as I was reviewing the scriptures in Genesis, I noticed something that hadn’t struck me before. It’s a bit off the point, but I found it curiously funny. Let me review part of today’s reading ...read more

    The Self-Worth Struggle

    Contributed by Robert Sickler on May 24, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 15,439 views

    Most of us develop a sense of self-worth based on our ability to meet personal standards, which we have generated from our perception of social, cultural, and peer standards. As a result, our self-worth is generated by worldly values not God's.

    The Self-Worth Struggle Introduction … source of our self-worth Self-worth, often referred to as self-esteem, is considered to be indicative of a person's basic mental evaluation of their value or worth. In developing self-worth a person judges their ability to meet personal standards, ...read more

    The Scandalized

    Contributed by D Marion Clark on Oct 9, 2016
     | 3,792 views

    They believed Jesus was a bad man. That is scary. How could one behold Jesus, hear him teach, witness his miracles, and then conclude that “He is possessed by Beelzebul”?

    Matthew 26:57-68 The Scandalized 2/29/04 D. Marion Clark Introduction Who is responsible for Jesus’ death? Judas bears guilt. He is the disciple who betrayed Jesus into the hands of his enemies. Peter and the other disciples bear guilt. They did not defend their Lord. Judas represents ...read more

    A message on the very simple principle, "Do unto others as you would have them do to you.

    Introduction A. A honeymoon couple is in the Watergate Hotel. The new bride is concerned and asked, "What if the place is still bugged?" The groom says "Hmm... Good point. I'll look for a bug."

     | 2,920 views

    If you and I have Jesus in common, our faith and love and passion for Christ will naturally be for each other as well.

    THE JOY OF BEING ONE I have a theory. It is a simple theory based on my observations of the Church. Here’s the theory: Put two people in the same room, leaving them alone, and in time they will find something to disagree about. I told you it was simple. The theory itself is one that I have ...read more

    Making Jesus Real

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Sep 27, 2023
     | 1,063 views

    The Love of God was put on display for all the world to see. Those who believed became the personal recipients of that love. As His family we want continue to make the love of Jesus obvious to others, through our words and our actions, we cannot divorce one from the other.

    We took this summer to discuss many different philosophical as well as biblical arguments that point to God’s existence. Yet amongst all the arguments, I believe one of the greatest testimonies for the existence of a personal God is His love (1 John 4:8). Love is at the core of the Christian faith ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 11, 2023
     | 1,339 views

    For human beings the delicate balance between judgement AND mercy is very hard to maintain and we err one way or the other. God has it absolutely correct. Part 3 looks at that problem, as well as the vengeance and retribution of God. We cover various aspects. “Vengeance is Mine.”

    THE RETRIBUTION OF GOD AND COMBATTING INJUSTICE – THE DELICATE BALANCE OF JUDGMENT AND MERCY – PART 3 THE DELICATE BALANCE OF JUDGMENT AND MERCY – CAN HUMAN BEINGS HANDLE IT?

    Pits & Wells

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,507 views

    Many of the things that we think will fill us up are indeed pits that drain us. We should seek after wells that have Living Water. In the midst of internal strife in the church at Philippi, Paul shows us how to seek the things that are lovely while I'll give you steps to reduce the negativity.

    “Pits & Wells” (Title Slide) [Slides are available upon request, these cues denotes where slides are shown/used.] It’s a common narrative to think that most of the news that you see on TV is bad news.

    Out of all the things that Jesus has done for us, let's look and see what is the most and best thing He has provided.

    Can you believe it? We are only 6 weeks away from Easter, one of the most celebrated Christian holidays. The Lord laid it on my heart to talk about what Jesus has done for us as we lead up to the Easter season. Today, let's think about all that Jesus has done for us.

    On the ladder there are the messengers of God who were traveling up and down, between heaven and earth. They were delivering the people petitions to God in heaven, and they were bringing God’s answers back down to help the people of the earth.  

    Genesis 28:12-15 By Pastor J.W.T. Spies   The story of Jacob and his brother Esau is a tangled one, filled with deceit, dishonesty, conspiracy and animosity. Esau despised his birthright, and sold it to brother Jacob for a pot of stew. Jacob then deceived their father and got him to bless him ...read more
