    Rise Up And Walk

    Contributed by Terry Hovey on May 19, 2023
     | 4,947 views

    Every time I read this account I’m reminded of the account where Jesus healed the man who had been born blind. I guess it’s because they’re so similar in that both men were born in their condition...

    Rise Up and Walk Acts 3:1-10 I really wish I had been here last Sunday to hear what Scott had to say, because the Day of Pentecost is such an important day in Christian history. It was the day when the promised Holy Spirit came upon the 120 disciples in the upper room and gave birth to the ...read more

    Repentance is not a one-time one-action in the Bible but is a spiritual process that involves turning away from sin and turning or returning to God.

    SORRY/NOT SORRY ACTS 3:19-20 #repentance INTRODUCTION… Background of “Sorry not Sorry” The phrase “sorry/not sorry” is a sarcastic way of acknowledging that someone might not like whatever you are saying or doing … but you don’t really care. “Sorry not sorry” is a new take on a time-honored ...read more

    Imitating Our Father

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Jun 2, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 516 views

    When it comes to extending mercy, it seems the Church has lost its way. Too many are quick to condemn people they don't like. This message is about being more like our Heavenly Father when it comes to acting with mercy.

    There is a characteristic of our Father that is a part of our DNA as His sons and daughters that we are seeing less evident in the Church today. God’s heart for people. Now, you may be thinking, “Bro. Barry, hold up. What do you mean the Church is showing less of God’s heart today? What about ...read more

    based on 168 ratings
     | 9,704 views

    Our Lord shows us that he often waits for us to pray our burdens to Him, before he acts. This is what our Lord wants us to do now!

    Title: Our Nation in peril, what is our recourse? Text: Zechariah 9:1-12 Date: July 7. 2002 We all know what happened to the people of Israel when they abandoned God. God removed the hedge of protection around His people and thus allowed Israel’s neighbors to attack and persecute them. ...read more

    Satan plants snake eggs of evil thoughts in our minds and we act like Spiderman to shoot a web of deceit to make others believe that we are something that we are not.

     | 24,208 views

    I’m speaking especially to fathers, for I’m convinced that not until fathers get their act in order will we see a real change for good in our homes & in our society.

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER CENTRAL CHRISTIAN, BROWNSVILLE, TX Ephesians 6:4 is a passage of Scripture that probably ought to be read every Father’s Day. It is a passage addressed directly to fathers. Here is what it says. "Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, ...read more

    Marred And Made Again

    based on 161 ratings
     | 18,183 views

    Jeremiah’s visit to the potter’s workshop was the means of God’s giving him an acted-parable of what he could do with the marred nation of Israel and mankind in general.

    MARRED AND MADE AGAIN One of the pleasures of being away from home on holiday is to have the opportunity of just standing and staring at interesting sights, such as a craftsman at work - perhaps a potter. The prophet Jeremiah did this once. He tells us what he saw: "The pot he was shaping from ...read more

    Are You Ashamed Of Jesus?

    based on 20 ratings
     | 4,793 views

    Do we act as if we are ashamed of Jesus? Are we secretly or openly ashamed of the gospel? My prayer is that every local resident will get to know the story of our faith in Jesus!

    Romans 1: 8-17 When I was at school, there were roughly speaking two groups of people as far as I could see. One group was the in-crowd. And the in-crowd contained the ’lads’. It contained the beautiful people. It contained those people who were popular, people you really wanted to spend time ...read more

    Truths To Learn From Esther

    Contributed by Jerry Smith on Apr 14, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,090 views

    Esther was faced with a decision that required her to pray, review God’s timing, act with courage and live by faith. These are traits we must evidence too when making decisions

    Esther became Queen to King Xerxes in 479BC. This was around 25 years after Ezra took a group of pilgrims back to Israel. In chapter one Queen Vashti refuses to obey the King and is removed from power. In chapter two the King holds a beauty pageant to select the next queen. READ 2:17, 18 As we ...read more

    Does Jesus cleansing the temple have any real significance for us so many years later? I believe this story acts as a spiritual MRI, if we let it.

    Jesus Cleanses the Temple—Part 2 Matthew 21:14-22 Welcome back to the story of Jesus cleansing the temple. Last time, we all walked away with a renewed sense of the call of God on the life of each of us to reserve and preserve a holy time and a holy place to encounter and worship Him. We saw ...read more

    The Necessity Of Prayer

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on May 31, 2006
    based on 54 ratings
     | 37,510 views

    God acts when man pray. The asking is critical to the task at hand. We are not dealing with a reluctant Father, but a God who is willing to respond. Prayer accomplishes God’s will.

    James 5:17-18, 1 Kings 18:41-46 The Necessity of Prayer James 5:17-18 17 Elijah was a man just like us. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. 18 Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its crops.

     | 23,227 views

    Salvation was only the beginning! Now, God wants us to present our bodies as a living sacrifice. This is an act of surrender, commitment, and dedication. Paul tells us HOW to do it.

    “It’s Time For A Change!” Romans 12:1-2 Life is full of CHANGES! HAS your life CHANGED in last YEAR … 5 Yr. … 10 … 20? IF IT HASN’T … then must have been living on a deserted island somewhere! There are 2 BASIC KINDS of “change” … INTERNAL & EXTERNAL. We usually LIKE … EXTERNAL ...read more
