    A Citizens Responsibility

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Jul 3, 2009
    based on 25 ratings
     | 14,273 views

    A sermon about how America has been blessed, why it has been blessed, and what we as citizens, are supposed to do to keep our nation blessed.

    America has enjoyed an abundance never before known among nations. And make no mistake; the things we have had were blessings … blessings from our Heavenly Father. They did not come by man’s hands, nor did they “just happen that way.” Since yesterday was Independence Day, I think it only ...read more

    based on 17 ratings
     | 7,049 views

    We do not deserve anything from God except for His wrath and punishment . . . BUT BECAUSE of His great love for us, God who is rich in mercy made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in our sin - it is by His grace we have been saved!

    The last two weeks, I have talked about how much God has blessed this nation; giving America more blessings than any other nation in the history of the world – including Israel. And I talked about how we now have a responsibility to do what we can to keep these blessings flowing for our ...read more

    based on 31 ratings
     | 12,248 views

    A sermon primarily aimed at the children, explaining how we judge people based on what they seem to be, but God judges people on what they can become in Him.

    (Although this message is meant for the entire congregation, it is primarily aimed at the younger children, teaching them that it is ultimately more important what a person is like on the inside rather than what they appear to be like on the outside. And to illustrate this point, we will have ...read more

    The Power In An Eyewitness Testimony

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Mar 5, 2009
    based on 15 ratings
     | 11,840 views

    Giving one’s testimony involves telling others 1- How we were before we met Christ; telling them about the circumstances that 2- Led us to meet Christ; and 3- The difference Christ has made in our lives since we met Him.

    What is the most crucial testimony in a court of law? Actually there are three: One is a picture or video taken of a person committing a crime. But, depending on the quality of the picture, that can be ruled inaccessible. Another is an eyewitness that testifies they saw a person doing ...read more

    A message explaining why Martha felt sorry for herself, got angry at her sister, and why she questioned Jesus as to whether He cared for her or not.

    How would you feel if your car only started once out of every two or three tries, would you consider it to be a good car?

     | 9,936 views

    A shorter midweek message that might help other churches in dealing with some of the potential problems they must deal with in growing from a very small to a medium sized church in a short period of time.

    We all have choices in life. Some choices lead us into good times, while others will lead us into bad times. And considering that we are free to make whichever choice we want, we should be very careful and use much wisdom, because most choices, good or bad, have far reaching consequences that we ...read more

    One Is Bad - One Is Good

    based on 11 ratings
     | 3,916 views

    A message comparing the horrifying attributes of hell to the wondrous goodness of heaven.

    I read a news article the other day that said over 50% of society believes in a heaven, but less than 40% believe in a hell. There is a discrepancy in those numbers because everyone wants to go someplace good, and we all recognize that heaven is a good place. Likewise, we do not want to go any ...read more

    A message about how to prepare to do the job for which we have been called, and how this preparation will get you ready to meet our Savior!

    In LUKE 24, we read the account of Jesus’ last day upon this earth. Please turn in your Bibles to that chapter and keep it there as we will come back and visit it again in a few moments.

    Running The Race

    based on 25 ratings
     | 6,708 views

    A message of faith. Do we hide from fear, or step out in faith? Do we normally run to God, or away from Him? And this message ends with a question: ’Are we serious about living for Jesus, or do we just go through the motions, thinking we are serious?’

    Two gas company employees were out reading meters one day when they started talking about how good of physical condition they were in. One of them bragged that he used to be a track star in high school and the other one claimed to be one, too. So they decided that after they checked the meter ...read more

     | 7,044 views

    A sermon discussing Abram and Sarai, their sin, and their obedience. It also details the root cause of the conflict in the Middle East today ... a conflict between distant relatives.

    On our trip through the book of GENESIS, we have covered the creation of the world on down to a man named Abram, who was called by God to go into an unknown area. The important thing to remember in Abram’s life is that he obeyed without hesitation. And because He obeyed, God made him the father ...read more
