    As believers, we need to understand what God has blessed us with in the ordinance of the Holy Communion or the Lord’s Supper. Appropriate observance and understanding will add to us all the benefits it carries.

    HOLY COMMUNION ORDINANCE OF A NEW BEGINNING “For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the ...read more

    It seems Isaac was laughed at in one way or another all his life. Isaac means "laughter". What an appropriate name. A river of LAUGHTER runs through the entire story of the birth of Isaac.

    Part 1 - Genesis 21:1-7 - LAUGHING AT GOD! As he was born my heart was bursting with JOY. I held my son Ben up to the Lord and dedicated him then and there. I was so grateful for the gift of a child. I remember driving home at the beginning of that day laughing and honking the horn so everyone ...read more

    Titus and Timothy are both told to select appropriate men to lead the church as Elders. But what does God expect of these leaders and how can we (as the congregation) assist them in their role?

    OPEN: In one medical school, the students were complaining that they didn’t see why a class in Physics was necessary for them to be doctors. Finally one student actually challenged the teacher with that question. The teacher thought about that for a moment and then said “Well, we study Physics ...read more

    based on 39 ratings
     | 38,596 views

    This message helps you learn to appropriate God's ongoing protection for daily living. God's given us some armor. You need to know how to put it on and how to use it.

    EPHESIANS 6: 14-15 THE SPIRITUAL WARRIOR’S DIVINE ARMOR [Colossians 3:15- 17 / ] Satan opposes believers in many ways, some of them direct and obvious and other methods are indirect and subtle.

    What To Do When The Fireworks Aren't There

    Contributed by John Herrmann on Jun 21, 2011
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,771 views

    Appropriate for July 4th Weekend, this sermon offers a brief glimpse into where freedom and celebration are perhaps lacking in the Christian life and how joy and freedom are ultimately to be found in Christ alone.

    PBS once had an interesting program on fireworks – how they are made, how they work and so on. By way of contrast the newspaper was full of stories about communities and civic agencies canceling their fireworks shows on account of extreme fire hazard and fiscal concerns in a weak economy. ...read more

    Salvation: The Song Of Thanksgiving Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Mar 2, 2022
     | 1,846 views

    Even while others are facing judgment the saved will praise God. The joy of salvation is wonderfully expressed in a song. Salvation causes us to rejoice and praise God. This is very appropriately expressed in song.

    One way a person expresses love is through a song. If Jeremiah is the weeping prophet then Isaiah may be the singing prophet. Isaiah composed a lot of songs. Isaiah 26:1-9 is a song of praise that expresses thankfulness to God for salvation. This song expresses joy of salvation, praise to a worthy ...read more

    Some of the combative people in Corinth, who had formed factions, seem to have made more of them than was appropriate, placing them on a pedestal as if they were lords of their faith, and authors of their religion.

    What is the appropriate response to bad leadership, or people that you have to correct that are older or younger than you? Find out - along with how Paul told Timothy to treat widows on the church payroll.

    Paul gives Timothy some pastoral advice on how to treat various groups in the body of Christ: older and younger men, older and younger women, widows - and then elders. Finally he gives Timothy some very personal advice. It’s possible that these two groups - widows and elders - were the focus of ...read more

    Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Dec 25, 2011
    based on 35 ratings
     | 18,538 views

    One of the most puzzling facts of Christmas is that God, when He came to earth & took upon Himself human form, was born in a stable. Why? Were there not more appropriate places for the Son of God?

    THE MYSTERY OF THE MANGER A SOLUTION FOR THE STABLE LUKE 2: 1-7 Seven year old Johnny yelled “Daddy, guess what’s missing?” The front lawn rang with excitement as the family put the life-size manger scene in place. “What?” his father asked while he finished fastening Joseph to a stake for ...read more

    Answering Why

    Contributed by Martin Wiles on Jan 27, 2013
     | 4,986 views

    In tragic times, we are tempted to ask why. The question itself is not wrong-after all Jesus asked it of his Father while on the cross, but it may not be the most appropriate question or lead to the best end.

    Introduction: A. When tragedy strikes, we either grow bitter toward God or draw closer to him. B. Can God prevent tragedy? Yes. Why doesn’t he always? We can’t answer that. C. God is imminent and transcendent, but he’s not always imminent when we want him to be. D. As the writer ...read more
