Beauty On The Beast Series

Contributed by T. Michael Crews on Dec 13, 2007

Exposition of Rev. 17

Tonight I want to talk with you about a harlot. I guess this is not a subject that comes up in conversation very often. They call it the world’s oldest profession, but it’s not one mentioned in polite company. Church is probably the last place you expect the preacher to mention a harlot, but I ...read more

Home Sweet Home

Contributed by Gregory Mc Donald on Feb 10, 2010

This morning I want to look at the story of a young man who discovered the truth of the familiar quote, "There's no place like home." It's the familiar story of the prodigal son...but maybe from a different angle than you've heard it before.

HOME SWEET HOME LUKE 15:11 24 There is an old song that is still popular that says, "There's no place like home for the holidays..." With Thanksgiving and Christmas just around the corner our thoughts often turn toward home. For me, there are so many great memories of the times my family had ...read more

The Wrath Of A Loving God Series

Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 12, 2013

Many people do not think of God in the way that He reveals Himself, as a God who is not only loving, but also angry at sin. He hates the sinner and the sin.

The topic I would like to deal with this afternoon is one that is rarely preached on, and this is very surprising because this aspect of God’s character is mentioned hundreds of times in both the Old and New Testaments. This subject is so important to study so we can have a correct ...read more

God's Love And God's Wrath

Contributed by David Mende on Aug 9, 2009

God is Love. But even the wrath of God is an attribute of God as much a part of God as any other attribute, an attribute without which God would be less than God. I would be delighted if you could rate this sermon and give brief feedback.
