Praying For A Collision With The Holy Spirit

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Feb 10, 2023

Today’s message will be centered around Acts 1:4-5, and we’ll look at several passages that will bolster this message, and why I believe the body of Christ (the church) needs a collision; now perhaps, more than any other time in our history.

How many of you are like us, before we go on a trip we say a prayer asking for travel mercies, something like this “Lord, we are praying for a collision”… Y’all are looking a bit confused out there! We’ll get back to that. Today’s message will be centered around Acts 1:4-5, and we’ll look at ...read more

Not Ready For Change

Contributed by David Shoots on Feb 11, 2023

As a Christian, there is a spiritual battle. It is a battle between the spirit and the flesh. Our text tells us that the things I want to do, I don’t do but the things I don’t want to do, that I do. Are we ready for a Change in our life?

NOT READY FOR CHANGE As a Christian, there is a spiritual battle. It is a battle between the spirit and the flesh.

Moses: The Portrait Of A Leader

Contributed by Abiodun Adeniyi on Apr 22, 2025

Wearing Your Faith

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Feb 12, 2025

James 2:17 says, "Even so, faith if it hath not works is dead, being alone." This message is about how a Christian can know that he or she is living by faith.

Turn to Habakkuk 2:4. We will get there in a moment. Over the years I have heard countless sermons and teachings on faith – and that is a good thing. A person cannot be a Christian and not live by faith. The truth that a Christian must live by faith is found in both the Old and New ...read more

A Hasty Judgment (Joshua 22)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Feb 25, 2025

How easy is it to make a hasty judgment without complete evidence? Let's begin in Joshua 22.

Have we ever made a false judgment based upon incomplete evidence? Let’s begin in Joshua 22. Were the two and a half tribes faithful in helping their brethren conquer the land? Do we help each other in the church to conquer sin? Then Joshua called the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half ...read more

The 4th Temptation

Contributed by Ken Sauer on Mar 5, 2025

A sermon about the temptation to believe God doesn't love us.

“The 4th Temptation” Luke 4:1-13 Who can tell me how many temptations Jesus faces in this morning’s Gospel Lesson? Three, right? That’s the obvious answer. It’s what we have been told or have come to believe. It’s what we just read. First, Jesus was tempted to turn stones into ...read more

The 2nd Census (Numbers 26)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Dec 2, 2024

Numbering those who were allowed to enter the promised land can be seen as a metaphor for an eternal promised land. Will we be in that number? Let's look at Numbers 26.

The generation that had rebelled against God had all passed away. It was time for a new generation to enter the promised land. What was their number? Does this metaphorically picture a chosen number who cross the Jordan into that eternal promised land? Let’s look at Numbers 26. What were Moses and ...read more

The Light Of The World

Contributed by Larry Grant on Dec 15, 2024

Mark is the only writer to record the healing of the of the deaf/mute and the healing of the blind at Bethsaida. John only teaches about the man born blind. What ties these three lessons together is that the Bible records Jesus using His spittle to heal them.

John 9:1-7 (NKJV) "The Light of the World" December 15, 2024 The four Gospels record more than 35 miracles, but apart from Jesus’ resurrection, feeding the 5,000 is the only miracle mentioned by all four. Not even something as amazing as the resurrection of Lazarus was recorded by more ...read more
