    The Change That Comes With Church Growth

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Mar 10, 2009
    based on 14 ratings
     | 9,863 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

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Mar 11, 2009
    based on 11 ratings

    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

    What Are We Feeding?

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Aug 5, 2011
    based on 14 ratings
     | 11,548 views

    Using Colossians and Acts, we explore the validity of what we are preaching to our congregations.

    The question our churches need to start asking ourselves is, "What are we feeding to the congregation?" We stand at our pulpits each week declaring the truth of God’s Word, and we tell people they need to start getting ready - and then we veer off and give messages that have nothing to do with ...read more

    What Are We Eating?

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Aug 6, 2011
    based on 12 ratings
     | 5,933 views

    We are to be obedient to the Lord and to tell others the Good News. But we can do neither unless we understand the Lord’s Word, and we cannot understand that unless we read it and unless are taught it in our churches. So, what do you think? Are we

    Today, I want to talk about what we are eating. Let me rephrase that; what are we being fed? I want to talk this morning about the plight of the American church. The church is not to make ourselves feel good, but to help others find life. We need to understand Who it is that makes that offer, ...read more

    Revelation 12: The Woman, The Child, & The Dragon Series

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Aug 6, 2011
    based on 18 ratings
     | 36,378 views

    Chapter 12 in our ongoing study of Revelation. These are printed as handouts for each person and there is a quiz at the end they take at home.

    This chapter of Revelation is a “great” chapter, for we find many things being revealed to us. We find a “great wonder” in verse 1; “great dragon”, in verse 3; a “great wrath” in verse 12, and a “great eagle” in verse 14. But that is not all we find. We also find a great help because we will ...read more

    Study On Revelation 1 Series

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Sep 3, 2012
    based on 5 ratings
     | 10,696 views

    A very easy-to-understand teaching on Revelation 1.

    A little 5-year old girl was "helping" her mother fix dinner one evening when the mother asked her to go into the pantry and get her a can of tomatoes. The little girl said she was afraid to go in there because it was dark. The mother told her it was okay, as nothing was going to hurt her because ...read more

    Study On Revelation 2 Series

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Sep 3, 2012
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,085 views

    A very easy-to-understand teaching on Revelation 2.

    In my very first position as a Senior Pastor, I quickly became aware of the major problem found in churches today. About three months into the job, I preached about the Rapture. I made sure it was not the old "hellfire & brimstone" type of message, and I even added some levity to a few parts, but ...read more

     | 6,012 views

    A very easy-to-understand teaching on Revelation 3.

    I remember when I was in grade school, I really thought that going to school was a waste of time. I knew the teachers were well educated, but I also thought that, as we lived and grew older, nobody would ever need all the information they were trying to teach us. A good friend of mine agreed ...read more

    based on 7 ratings
     | 6,386 views

    An easy-to-understand study on Revelation 4.

    There are three views on the Rapture. That we will be taken up before the Tribulation period; that we will be taken up halfway through the Tribulation period; and that we will not be taken up until after the Tribulation period. There seems to be some scriptures that can be made to fit any of ...read more

     | 7,188 views

    An easy-to-understand study on Revelation 5.

    This chapter deals with things that are written in a scroll; a scroll that was in God’s hands and which had a message from God to us. John will reveal the contents of that message to us one step at a time. VERSE 1: “Then I saw in the right hand of him who sat on the throne a scroll with writing ...read more

    based on 8 ratings
     | 6,894 views

    An easy-to-understand study of Revelation 6.

    I heard a story that took place in a western town in the late 1800’s. It told of a horse that was spooked and then bolted, running away uncontrollably with a small boy in the bed of the wagon. Seeing the child was in grave danger, a young man risked his life to catch the horse and stop the wagon, ...read more

    An easy-to-read and easy-to-understand study on Revelation 7.

    Two preachers were holding up signs on a portion of roadway, trying to get the attention of passing cars. The first preacher’s sign read, “THE END IS NEAR!” A sports car flew by and upon reading the sign, the driver slowed down and yelled to the preacher, “TELL SOMEBODY ...read more

    based on 8 ratings
     | 7,850 views

    An easy-to-read and easy-to-understand study on Revelation 8.

    In chapter 6, we saw Jesus Christ opening the six seals of the scroll. With the opening of each one, a more severe punishment was delivered to a sinful and unrepentant world than the punishment before. In chapter 7, we saw a temporary restraint from these punishments. And in the place of the ...read more

     | 7,744 views

    An easy-to-read and easy-to-understand study on Revelation 9.

    In Mel Gibson’s movie, “THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST”, there was one detail that most people missed. That one detail said so much about whom it was that actually punished Jesus. That detail was that we never got to see the man’s face who hammered the spikes into Jesus’ hands. His face was only a ...read more

    1 Corinthians 10: Paul's Love For Others

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Oct 12, 2014
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,996 views

    Showing how sin leads us away from God, and if we are condemned we will not return, but if we are loved, we will.

    Today, we continue with our teaching in 1 Corinthians 10. We will begin with verse 8. But before we begin, I want to briefly set it up by giving you a quick overview of the entire chapter. God had set the Israelites free from their bondage in Egypt and they were now headed to the Promised Land. ...read more
