    Marriage: Build Up Your Spouse Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 10, 2022
     | 3,020 views

    Christianity is a call to be selfless. To think of others needs more highly than yourself. In Christian marriage we are called to think of our spouses needs before our own needs.

    We all know how easy it is to tear down. You could spend one hour building a sandcastle. It can be destroyed with one swift kick. It is easy to see the dust in someone else’s eye and overlook the plank in your own. In this message on Christian marriage I really just want you to look at half of it. ...read more

    Different people have different ideas of who Jesus is. To some they do not mind including Him as one of the gods and to others He is one of the prophets...but what does the Bible say who Jesus is?

    Illustration: A Sunday school child was busy doing something, while everyone else was paying attention to the teacher. She had a piece of paper and some crayons, and was doing some art work. The Sunday school teacher being observant asked the child, “Sweetheart, what are you ...read more

     | 24,575 views

    Abraham failed to contend for a supernatural offspring, opting to settle for less than God's best. Many Christians do likewise. God commands, "Get rid of the slave woman and her son!" i.e - "Stop accepting only natural solutions!"

    God has gone to a great deal of trouble to give us "love letters" that express how much He cares for us. But what happens when we don't accept that He loves us?

    This Sermon focuses on is what we believe the truth. Also was Jesus lying to us or is he Lord.

    As It Is In Heaven

    Contributed by Scott Sutton on Aug 14, 2022
     | 4,588 views

    Reading the Lord’s Prayer recently, I thought about something that it says in a way that I had never thought about before. It says in verse #10 “...Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.”

    Then it occurred to me, if we are to do God's will on Earth then we must know what is going on in heaven first! Because that was how Jesus was teaching His disciples to pray. So that means we also need to know what is happening in Heaven and how God’s will is being accomplished. The first ...read more

    Jesus didn't say he would show us the way or would point us in the way, he said "I am the Way."

    I Am the Way I am! What a statement. I am. When I was growing up I used to watch Popeye and you may remember that he used to say “I yam, what I yam” And Popeye was simply stating his acceptance of himself. And that’s not a bad thing, being comfortable in your own skin. That ...read more
