David And Goliath Series

Contributed by Joseph Rodgers on Jan 3, 2019

What does it mean to believe? To believe is more than just acknowledging – it is faith in action. All true belief requires activity. Belief requires that we put our money where our mouth is. It requires hope in another person.

Amazing Stories – David and Goliath 7/31/16 1 Samuel 17 Sunday AM Good AM. I hope you’ve had a wonderful summer. Can you believe that in just a few days life will get back to normal? I don’t know about you, but I’ve enjoyed being all together throughout the summer. I’ve especially ...read more

The Body Of Christ – Part Ii Series

Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Mar 11, 2016

There is only one body, but many members. We are all dependent on one another. It is not just the pastor’s job to care for the members of the body—that would be humanly impossible. Each member must function as he or she is called.

We continue our study of His Church and begin by looking at 1 Corinthians 12. (1 Cor 12:13 NKJV) For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body; whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free; and have all been made to drink into one Spirit. 1 Cor 12:14 For in fact the body is not one ...read more

Walk With Care Series

Contributed by Scott Spencer on Feb 14, 2015

We all know how easy it is to become distracted. We also know what can happen when we are distracted. The world can be a dangerous place. We all know that. And that is why we exhort one another to be careful.

Ephesians: Our Identity In Christ~Part 20 Our Identity In Christ Ephesians 5:15-17 15. Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise, 16. making the most of your time, because the days are evil. 17.

Palm Branches And Willow Branches

Contributed by Dean Morgan on May 1, 2017

The palm branch was a symbol of triumph and victory in Roman times. The willow represents weeping, sorrow, difficult times. When you come into my presence the Lord said He wanted you to bring a palm branch in one hand and a willow in another.

We need to begin by looking at the context this verse is set in. This is part of the ceremony concerning the Feast of Tabernacles. This festival, which was instituted in grateful commemoration of the Israelites having securely dwelt in booths or tabernacles in the wilderness, was the third of the ...read more

Bloom Where You're Planted Series

Contributed by Michael Mays on Sep 11, 2021

It's not always easy to see your environment as part of God's mission... but, one way or another, whether you like it or not, it always is! This series was given to a group of believers in an assisted living facility.

I. Intro: A. Pandemic Panic? 1. In the early days of the COVID pandemic, we watched our ministry opportunities almost immediately and completely evaporate—no assisted living/nursing home concerts, no home concerts, no church concerts, NOTHING 2. Rather than respond in fear (but after a little ...read more

Alpha And Omege

Contributed by Bud Rose on Sep 15, 2021

THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA - the first and last letters of the Greek alphabet. It’s also another way of saying that God is the beginning and the ending of all things—including human history. He is THE Source of all life and the fulfillment of all perfection. God is eternal.

God’s Message Today Is “Alpha and Omega” Text: Revelation 1:8; John 1:3; 1 Corinthians 2:7; Mark 9:23; 1 Peter 4:12; Hebrews 13:5; Philippians 4:19; Matthew 21:21-22; Mark 9:23 Text: Revelation 1:8, “I am the Alpha and the Omega—the beginning and the end,” says the Lord God. “I am the one who is, ...read more

Be Caring To Other Cultures Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Oct 30, 2021

Jesus had no social prejudice nor felt inconvenienced; therefore, He was able to meet the needs of a woman from another country and different culture. Being spiritually-minded allows us to lower our prejudices towards those who are different.

Leo Tolstoy, author of War and Peace and Anna Karenina, once said that “those who are willing to use their minds without prejudice and without fearing to understand things that clash with their own customs, privileges, or beliefs” possess a state of mind that is not common, but essential for right ...read more

Is Official/Formal Church Membership In A Local Church According To Scripture? – Part 3 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 7, 2025

Regarding this matter of formal church membership, it is examined alongside mainly Ephesian verses. The subject is opened up to understand the New Testament practice of being members of one another and the equality in the Body of Christ. Membership of Christ’s Body covers it all.

IS OFFICIAL/FORMAL CHURCH MEMBERSHIP IN A LOCAL CHURCH ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURE? – PART 3 Part 3 (there are 4 parts) continues to look at various scriptures in this study of formal church membership over and above the one membership that unites all believers into one Body, and makes them all ...read more

We cover a lot of ground here. The Israel/Iran war; Donald Trump; the Gog and Magog war misrepresented; the end of the Gog nations; the Second Coming; Armageddon; the Millennium, the restoration of Nature, and another look at the United States of America (from an outsider).

AN UPDATE ON ISRAEL AND IRAN AND THE UNITED STATES (CONTINUING MY LAST POST) Very recently I submitted a message about the Israel-Iraq conflict looking at prophecy.

Exercising And Exorcising

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 8, 2025

In this passage, we see two blind men who had to "exercise" their faith to receive their sight. However, we see another kind of exercise in this passage; or rather, “exorcise,” as Jesus exorcised a demon from a man who was mute.

You have probably heard someone say before that we need to “exercise” our faith. In Hebrews chapter 12, we read, “Let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith” (Hebrews 12:1b-2a). Jesus is both the author and finisher. He is ...read more

"God, Send A Spiritual Tsunami!”

Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 10, 2025

The Bible’s clear that we’re in the Last Days. A tsunami of Judgment is coming! But God has another kind of tsunami He wants to send: A tsunami of the Holy Spirit to sweep multitudes into the Kingdom of God. Let's pray for this Tsunami!

“GOD, SEND A SPIRITUAL TSUNAMI!” Mt. 24:37-39 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A pastor and song leader at one church weren’t getting along. When the pastor preached on giving, the song leader sang, “Jesus Paid It All.” 2. The next Sunday the pastor preached on gossip and the song leader sang, “I ...read more

Welcome The King Of Glory!

Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Nov 17, 2025

As we begin another Advent season let’s turn our thoughts to a portion of God’s Word that will guide us in our preparation for Christmas. Psalm 24 will also provide us with correct expectations for our celebration of Jesus’ birth.

Preparation. Expectation. From today until the “big day” in December those are the two things most of us will be experiencing. If we are adults, we will probably put some time into preparing for Christmas. Maybe we have already invested a few hours in the upcoming holiday. Many of us did that ...read more

Two powerful helpers: the rod and staff.

A. INTRODUCTION: TWO POWERFUL HELPERS 1. This world is not our home, there is little comfort, but the Lord has, “a rod and staff to comfort you.” 2. Usually, people think “rod and staff” are the same thing. But each is a different instrument. 3. The word “rod” is more than a stick; it is a club ...read more

Time To Go To Egypt

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 17, 2001

Fathers today, like Jacob, have been irresponsible; but, like him also, we can see that God is giving us another chance to redeem our relationships with our children, to allow Him to keep His promises, and to use major resources for Kingdom business.

This past Monday was our son-in-law’s birthday. We’ve cared about this young man for a long time, but now he’s even more special. He is our granddaughter Olivia’s father. And that makes him extra special. So we sent Don a birthday card and a little gift, and got an email response. In part, it ...read more
