    Worldly society is pressuring Christians to agree that sinful lifestyles and habits are normal and acceptable . We need courage to stand for what God says in His Word, the Bible. The 3 Hebrews set an example by refusing to acquiesce to the king's demands.

    There is hope for everyone of us because “when there is life, there is hope” and a dead person, whatever important and noble he could have been cannot change anything.

    Introduction: Dog was one of the most an unclean and despicable creature to the Jews; but a living one is better than a lion that is dead already. The most despicable living man’s state is preferable to that of the mot noble that has died impenitent. Thus it is better to be a live coward than a ...read more

    How can we thrive in an ungodly environment? 1) Stand up for who we are, 2) Excel in what we do. In exile, Daniel was excelled, without losing his identity.

    LIVING IN A STRANGE LAND—Daniel 1, 1 Peter 2:9-12 Read Daniel 1:1-20. ***My first days in a college dorm were a rude awakening, for a guy who had led a pretty sheltered life.

    This is the first in a Christmas series that examines the several "Fear Not" commands given throughout the Christmas story. This is the story of Zechariah.

    (Song - "Fear No More" - Building 249) That might be you this morning. You didn’t choose to be situated quite like you are this morning. Things haven’t turned out just like you’d hoped. And here you are. If the future is anything like much of the past, it’s looking pretty scary. But ...read more

    Continuing Christmas series. Looks at Mary as a proper response to what would ordinarily terrify us.

    Mary didn’t just suddenly appear on the earth. She was born, just like any other baby girl. She wasn’t from a thriving center of commerce and wealth. She was from a little town in the region of Galilee - a town where someone asked, “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?” We know something ...read more

    Safe In The Arms Of God

     | 10,968 views

    God’s children are secure. They are secure because of the hills we look to; the help we look for; and the eyes we look with. God himself is our hill of protection, God himself is the help we look for and the eyes of faith are the eyes with look with.

    Sermon: Safe in the Arms of God Ps 121:1 “I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. 2 My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. 3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber. 4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall ...read more

    Don’t Stop: The Challenge Amid The Pandemic

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Dec 29, 2021
     | 4,820 views

    This sad account of the people of God finds them at one of the lowest points in their rich history. I would like to suggest to you that there is a message of hope hidden in the text and a challenge to keep on keeping on.

    Subject: Don’t Stop: The Challenge Amid a Pandemic Text: Psalm 137:1-6 “By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion. We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof. For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that ...read more

    Where Is The Lord God Of Elijah (2 Of 2)

     | 1,450 views

    In the previous sermon we talked about Elijah, who was Elisha’s predecessor.

    We learned that Elisha followed Elijah everywhere he went. Elisha followed Elijah from Gilgal to Beth-el, to Jericho, to Jordan. Elijah asked Elisha to “Tarry here...” three times, but every time Elisha would say, “...As the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee...” Elijah, ...read more

    Finishing strong is the attitude of believing you can do something and having the courage and determination to see it through to the end. Our cause is noble, our faith is secure and our mission is vital, we are built for this!

    Sermon: Striving To Finished Strong Scripture Lessons - Acts 6:8-15 “Stephen, a man full of God’s grace and power, performed amazing miracles and signs among the people. 9 But one day some men from the Synagogue of Freed Slaves, as it was called, started to debate with him.

     | 840 views

    A New Year is always an exciting time for us. WHY? Because last year was not a BANNER YEAR FOR MANY!

    A New Year is also exciting because the past year brought many difficult times into people’s lives. It was a year when: • Some suffered a divorce • Some suffered a financial setback • Some suffered some serious health problems So a New Year is a time when people can put all these bad things behind ...read more

    Preaching From Philippians #3

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 31, 2022
     | 1,970 views

    In the last sermon, we dealt with Paul stating that whether he lived or died, his purpose for living was for the Lord Jesus.

    When he wrote to the Philippian church, he was in prison. In prison he knew that he faced a capital crime and that he might be executed. If you were in prison and you thought that you might die, what kind of letter would you write? We do not have to guess at what kind of letter the Apostle Paul ...read more

    Where Is The Lord God Of Elijah (1 Of 2)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 4, 2022
     | 2,087 views

    As I read through this passage, it appears that Elijah is testing Elisha.

    Look at verse 2. He said to Elisha, “...Tarry here, I pray thee; for the Lord hath sent me to Beth-el...” But notice Elisha’s response in that same verse, “...As the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee...” Then look at verse 4. Elijah seems to test Elisha again. He ...read more
