    Something's Gotta Give!

    Contributed by Christine Forehand on Nov 3, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,417 views

    Something’s gotta give in three areas of the church: in our circumstances, in our worship, and in our outreach.

    Genesis 32:28 (AMP) 28And He said, Your name shall be called no more Jacob [supplanter], but Israel [contender with God]; for you have contended and have power with God and with men and have prevailed. The phrase, “something’s gotta give” has its basis in an older phrase ’give and take’ which is ...read more

    We are like a well tended tree, not one that has just sprung up

    Isaiah 46:4 Like a Tree planted by the Water “Old age ain’t no place for sissies” is a saying on my coffee mug.

    Just What Does "taken Up" Mean For Jesus?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 20, 2022
     | 1,526 views

    When I was ten, that meant that Jesus went up into the clouds and literally sat at the right hand of the Father, on a throne in the clouds. But no more.

    Ascension Day One commonality that men and women my age have in the U.S., no matter what religion we were raised in, is the story of Jesus. If I bet money, I’d lay odds that anyone age 65 or older in 2022 can at least give a general outline of the life of Christ, even if he or she didn’t think ...read more

    Don't nip it in the bud. Get down to the root!

    The reason we are not seeing solutions to our national problems is we are only dealing with the symptoms not the root. The reason we see little or no fruit in our spiritual life is because dealing with the outer man instead of going to the root of the inner man. The reason we are not conquering ...read more

    His Satanic Majesty, The Devil

    Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Mar 24, 2025
     | 231 views

    This sermon will give us greater understanding of the one who wants to drag us to hell, the devil. We will come to know that Satan is the originator of lies, and the deceiver of mankind.

    Don’t let this title have you to believe that I am going to give a glowing report of the devil. No! It is more of a sarcastic title for one whom the bible calls the prince of the air, one who has a short reign to try and destroy as many of you as he can. So, this is my time to give you an ...read more

    Even if the future of the church in America looks like VERSES 1-3, God can still bring about VERSE 8.

    The Scattering Acts 8:1-8 My favorite movies are those with plot twists at the end. When what happens at the end of a movie, you never saw coming at the beginning. And when the ending is revealed it's kind of like, "oh, everything makes sense now." I think the first time I vividly ...read more
