Acts Of The Apostles (12 Of 39)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 14, 2022

Remember that we read in the sixth and seventh chapters of Acts, about the life and death of that great deacon, Stephen.

The church lamented his death, and probably wondered who could take his place. They did not need to wonder, because when the Lord takes a saint home, He always raises up someone to take up where that saint left off. When we got to chapter 8, by the time we got to the fifth verse, we found that ...read more

Content And Container Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 26, 2022

This message looks at the cup (container) and the wine (content). The wine is still wine, no matter what container it’s in. Today's culture has a new cup; yet the content (gospel message) in the container can still be the same.

How many of you have a favorite glass that you prefer to drink out of? I do. For example, when I drink coffee I like to have a really big cup. My wife, on the other hand, likes to have a little dainty china cup, with a handle just big enough to fit her finger through. Ask either one of us to ...read more

Sermon # 10 - United To Fulfill God's Will Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Sep 20, 2024

God’s call to the church today is that we be united just like the early church so we can experience the powerful working of the Holy Spirit of God. Our prayer to God must be that those who hinder this unity be removed and that we fulfill God’s will in our lives.

We read in Jonah 1:7, Then the men said to each other, "We should throw lots to find out why this is happening to us." So the men threw lots. The lots showed that the troubles came to them because of Jonah. (ERV) As we continue this series of studies on the life of Jonah and the church, ...read more

Sermon # 12 - What Is Our Identity? Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Sep 26, 2024

When Jonah revealed his true identity, the other seafarers must have been astounded. We as a church are called to let the world know that the God we believe and worship is the true and living God, creator of heaven and earth and let’s not miss the opportunity to do so.

We read in Jonah 1:8, Then the men said to Jonah, "It is your fault that this terrible thing is happening to us. Tell us, what have you done? What is your job? Where do you come from? What is your country? Who are your people?" (ERV) The word of God came to Jonah to go to Nineveh, but ...read more

Discerning God's Voice: Does It Honor God?

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Oct 2, 2024

As God's creation, our lives are supposed to point to the glory of our Creator. God calls us to live for His glory. And it's in His glory that we find our greatest purpose.

Let's start off today talking about art. I am no artist but I appreciate art. When we look at a piece of art, we don't marvel over the canvas that it's painted on, or the type of paint that is used. We marvel over the artist. I am amazed how an artist can paint his thoughts on a ...read more

Saved From Guilt

Contributed by Colin Mcgeer on Jul 6, 2023

Guilt can be crippling. Jesus did not come to condemn but to save. When Jesus died we died. We have been raised a new creation. No more the old guilty man

For more than 50 years I lived in guilt. Even though I knew I was forgiven by God. I had been abused at eight years old and I could never tell anybody about it. At least I felt I could not speak about it because I had made my abuse my own and I felt ashamed. In later years I felt afraid to be found ...read more

Jesus Provides Food For The 4,000: The Response Of The Crowds, Pharisees, And Disciples Series

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Jul 10, 2023

These four thousand people have probably been eating what little they had with them when they began following Jesus, which probably wasn’t much. They may have found sources of water along the way. But they’re now in a predicament.

“Oh why didn’t I listen!?" The rich man cries out from the depths of hell, to this very day in 2023. He needed salvation dearly but could not see it. And he looked and saw Lazarus, comforted, in paradise. The rich man in sorrows, why didn’t he listen? He was rich, he was powerful, he did not ...read more

Who Calls?

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 30, 2023

Hearing and answering God's call has four parts in two pairs. We need to recognize who God is, and who we are, and after being cleansed, we must respond.

Do you ever screen your calls? By that I mean do you look to see who’s calling before you answer? I answer most of my calls right when they happen unless it’s tagged “scam likely” or I’m driving (I haven’t hooked up my Bluetooth yet) or if the phone is in the other room or if I accidentally left it ...read more
