    Backtrack To The Bible Series

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 15, 2022
     | 2,048 views

    When dealing with perilous times brought on by a corrupt culture, the Apostle Paul knew the answer: it was to go back to godly living and the foundation of truth as found in the Word of God. This was his counsel to Timothy in II Timothy 3.

    Our culture has long been going in the wrong direction. We have made great progress in technology, but it has also been our undoing. Existentialism and Post-modernism have taught us to focus on ourselves and selfishly pursue our own desires despite the consequences. Instead of the church affecting ...read more

    This is a eulogy for my cousin who grew up in the church, drifted away and came back to the Lord in the final two years of her life. She died unexpectedly at age 45. Family meant a lot to her

    No Resurrection? How Does That Make Sense?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 17, 2024
     | 316 views

    It’s not clear what the back-story is for this claim, but it leads to one of Paul’s best little classes in logic. Perhaps there was a Sadducee-trained Jewish Christian in Corinth. They didn’t believe in any resurrection.

    Friday of the Twenty-Fourth Week in Course 2024 From the beginning of the Church way back in the first century Christians have been proclaiming and celebrating the physical Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. That was a real historical event that occurred three days after He was murdered ...read more

    I truly believe that America is at a turning point and that is not a turn into a better direction like what is supposedly believed, but a turning around point that is headed back to a time we have struggled and fought to come away from.

    “What you asked for” By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. PRAYER OPENING: - Well, the election is over, and our next President is what America wanted and now must be prepared to receive what it asked for, a man that was impeached 2 times, left office and hid classified documents in his bathroom, was ...read more

    Luke 16:1-13 - Dirty Money And Kingdom Purposes

    Contributed by Carl Willis on Apr 10, 2024
     | 1,643 views

    An interesting teaching on how we as disciples should view and utilize the money systems of this world.

    Last week, we were going through the parable of the prodigal son—prodigal meaning somebody who squanders resources. Today, we're going to be talking about the prodigal manager, another person who is squandering resources. Jesus is going to use this illustration to prove one main point, but ...read more

    Paying Our Spiritual Debts

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 4, 2001
    based on 28 ratings
     | 10,873 views

    Debt can be a good thing, spiritually; we owe debts to those who have shaped us, both negatively and positively, and pay that back by sharing in mutual respect and by offering the good news to a generation yet to come.

    How do you feel about debt? Do you like debt? Do you take pleasure in interest payments? How many of you say, “Oh, Mr. Greenspan, please don’t lower the interest rate again. I want to pay more. I love debt.” Can I get a show of hands? I thought not. You don’t like debt. I don’t like ...read more

    It’s hard to go forward if we continually look back. God puts before us an open door of opportunity, but we must know that we are capable of good, and we must know our identities.

    Well, let’s get this over with. New Year’s resolutions: how many of you made New Year’s resolutions? Now how many of us have already broken at least one resolution? Come on, hands up, confession is good for the soul. How many have already, five days into the new year, broken at least ...read more

     | 11,173 views

    . Too many people do this still today, they run to God’s grace desiring eternal life in heaven, but quickly pull back from God at the first hint of obligation or responsibility to this grace we freely enjoy.

    Intro: A little boy was sick on Palm Sunday and stayed home from church with his mother. His father returned from church holding a palm branch. The little boy was curious and asked, "Why do you have that palm branch, dad?" "You see, when Jesus came into town, everyone waved Palm Branches to honor ...read more

    We’re not exempt from affliction, but God is working behind the scenes to bring good out of trouble. He’s not holding back; He’s involved. This should give us a better attitude toward suffering.

    Sermon Series on Romans 8> Reasons to be ENCOURAGED Reason #7, God has a plan! Rom 8:28-30 We look at our lives and sometimes wonder what God’s higher purpose must be. Paul has already stated that it’s difficult enough knowing what to pray about (26-27); it’s even harder to fathom why life can ...read more

    No Resolutions Just Commitments

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,055 views

    Jesus calls us to make cross-carrying commitments. These are not resolutions that can be broken and forgotten in a matter of days. When a person picks up a cross, it’s a one-way trip. No one expects to come back.

    I HATE NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS For nearly a decade, I said, “Next January, I will start eating right and exercising.” You can tell what happened with my resolutions. NOTHING. I did not start eating healthy foods. I did not start exercising, but that all changed last January 14th. I had a ...read more
