    Why did Jesus give us this prayer?”

    Who has been watching the Olympics this week? There was a lot of excitement around the newest event, snow-board-cross. We do like new things, don’t we. Even the winter Olympics themselves are, in a way, new. The Ancient Greeks didn’t ski, or ice skate. In fact, the first 13 Olympiads featured only ...read more

    David In Saul’s Camp

    Contributed by John Gaston on Sep 8, 2022
     | 3,079 views

    We see another magical moment when David walks with God and ventures into the impossible. God gave David Saul’s spear-scepter and the king's source of anointing. This was a prevision of what David was later to gain as King.

    DAVID IN SAUL’S CAMP 1 Sam. 26:2-25 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. I was thrown out of the break room of my Walmart yesterday. They asked me what I was doing there. I told them, “I’m on a break.” 2. They said, “But you don’t work here!” I said, “I just finished using the self-checkout, so clearly ...read more

    An Effective Worker For The Lord

     | 2,882 views

    We all know that some folks do some things better than others.

    This is true in so many ways, for example: • Some handle their money better than others • Some are better at sports than others • Some do a better job in scholastics than others • Some are more skillful in music than others. (1 Samuel 16:16 tells us that David was skillful at playing the harp, but ...read more

    What Happens When We Fail To Trust God

    based on 1 rating
     | 7,558 views

    Learning how to wait on God. Be patience while God is working.

    It is my examination that the contents listed here in verses 15-30, conveys the conviction that this man Jacob had a problem when it came down to trusting God. The basis for that conclusion is based on the facts that here was a man, along with his mother, had conspired, schemed and tricked both ...read more

     | 9,670 views

    And I can tell you that in 2020, that question “what am I to do” keeps popping up for me. It is a recurring question in my life as Pastor of Bala Chitto Baptist Church.

    INTRODUCTION If you are like me, you probably have asked yourself the question, “WHAT AM I TO DO?” many times over the span of your lifetime. You know those times when that question comes to your mind. Times when you find yourself in a situation where you are over your head, you don’t know which ...read more

    Our King Jesus’ Last Supper Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Apr 9, 2018
     | 9,460 views

    Jesus deliberately organises the last supper so there won’t be interruptions. Jesus uses the bread and wine to point to a future relationship; He uses an argument to teach humble servant hood; and He gives encouragement so our faith may not fail.

    Message Luke 22:7-38 Our King Jesus’ Last Supper If you knew that your meal tonight was going to be your last meal, what would you do? What setting would you choose? Who would you invite? What would you eat? I suspect a lot of us would choose a really lovely setting, perhaps over-looking the ...read more

    Do You Know Where You Are? Series

    With GPS we can know within 1 foot of where we are on planet Earth. But do we know where we are with God? Sin blinds us to our location and prevents us from know the way, but it is God who seeks us and asks us "where are you?"

    How many of you know what this is? (hold up a paper/fold out road map). We use to navigate all of the country with these. Now we have our smart phones with GPS (Global Positioning System) GPS systems have become very cost efficient and everyone , it seems, has access to one. The satellite system ...read more

    We are commanded to spread love, but what is love? Is it a need or an emotion? Why does God want us to love one another?

    Lately in the news there have been stories of an Angel in Rowlette TX. Several times over the last few weeks, a mystery guest has left $2000 tips for servers in restaurants. It’s been 3 times in the last 3 weeks. When the pandemic first started, restaurants were ordered to be closed to dining. ...read more

    Custody Battle

     | 1,167 views

    Today, more than ever before, the enemy of our souls is targeting our children. If we, as parents aren't careful to raise our children in the light of God's Love and Truth, satan will be happy to raise them in the shadows of immorality and apostasy.

    I found myself torn between two topics I felt led to preach on this week, but I believe the Lord used elder Jermaine’s last sermon to help me decide. I don’t know what part of that message resonated with you; but for me, the most powerful point that he brought out was this: Speaking of the great ...read more

    "anger (Part 1): Side Effects Of Anger And What The Bible Says About It" Series

    Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Oct 13, 2021
     | 7,412 views

    Anger is a part of human emotions. Some anger is necessary for making things better, like what Jesus did. Anger becomes a problem when we have trouble controlling it, causing us to say or do things we regret.

    Opening: A young mother and her little boy were driving down the street. The little boy asked, "Mommy, why do the idiots only come out when Daddy drives?" Do you get what the boy meant? His father liked to call other drivers' idiot' when he drove, but his mother never said that. ...read more

    You can find rest if you rest in God. You can find peace if you depend on the Lord. You can get rid of all your worries if you commit your life to the Lord and pray every day.

    This last week, I came across a five minute clip from an episode of The Bob Newhart Show on YouTube. That was back in the days when sit-coms were funny AND clean, unlike so many of them today. Bob, as you may know, was a psychologist on the show, and in this scene a woman comes into his office ...read more

    A personal story of great heartache and pain - overcome by the Love of Jesus -

    Throughout the past 55+ years I have walked with the Savior, one lesson continues to prove itself day by day - the more I learn about Jesus, I discover how little I really know and how much more I NEED to know!
