    Conquering Our Mountains

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 17, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 10,715 views

    In a spiritual sense, a mountain can represent any obstacle that stands in the way of victory. This message looks at how to overcome the obstacles and trials that are trying to pull us down into the valley of hardship and defeat below.

    In the Christian walk we often refer to “entering the valley” and “having mountaintop experiences.” The valleys are the low points in our life, and those times in which we experience hardship and trials. King David said in Psalm 23:4, “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, ...read more

    God Inhabits Our Praises

    Do you feel as though you are not experiencing the Lord, or you feel as though you are having a dry spell in your life? Begin directing all of your heart unto the Lord, and sing praises unto His name, and He will show up in your life.

    This evening I want to talk about the importance of praising God. Just how important is it that the Lord receives praise from His people? Allow me to open with a Biblical example. In Luke 19:37-38, the Scripture tells us: “Then, as He was now drawing near the descent of the Mount of Olives, the ...read more

    Faith Cometh By…

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 22, 2022
     | 1,307 views

    Many of the doctrines of the Bible are both SIMPLE and COMPLEX.

    Faith is one of those doctrines. For example: • It is so simple a child can understand it • It is so deep that you can spend a lifetime studying it, and never be able to comprehend it fully One of the reasons that we do not see the hand of God moving in our churches today, is because of the lack ...read more

    Making A Difference 2 Of 2

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 28, 2022
     | 2,546 views

    Tonight we want to look again at HOW WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE WITH OUR LIFE.

    Notice again, these words, “And of some have compassion MAKING A DIFFERENCE…” There are some folks that have deep feelings for the things of God. That word “compassion” here has to do with WORDS and ACTIONS. You can tell some people love the Lord by the way they TALK and LIVE. • The Pastor can ...read more

    Why I Do Not Obey The Lord

     | 2,280 views

    Every pastor hears excuses. But some of the excuses he hears are better than the others.

    Illus: One lady gave her excuse for why she does not attend church. She said, "I don't go to church, and this is my reason: • If I go some of the time, it makes me want to go all the time. • And since I can't go all the time, it makes me feel guilty when I miss some of the time. • ...read more

    Easter 2016: Empty Promises

    Contributed by Scott Bayles on Dec 22, 2020
     | 5,656 views

    On the first Easter Sunday, instead of promises full of emptiness, God gave us emptiness that is full of promise. There are at least three of them—an empty cross, empty clothes, and an empty cave. It is the very fact that each of these is empty that assures us that God’s promises are not.

    EASTER: EMPTY PROMISES Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 3/27/2016 I just want to take a moment to thank everyone for choosing to spend Easter morning with us here at the Grove.

    What does a successful ministry look like. How should we gauge the success of a preacher or a church. By worldly standards, John's ministry was a failure. By Jesus' standards John the Baptist was the greatest of all prophets.

    Is Your All On The Altar Of Sacrifice Laid? Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jul 17, 2021
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,862 views

    If God hated human sacrifice, why would He ask Abraham to offer his only son as a burnt offering to Him? And what can this story mean to us?

    CHILDREN'S STORY (I used a flannel graph display on the overhead) In the days of Abraham, one of the ways people showed their love for God by offering Him a sacrifice. A sacrifice is like a gift. It’s something you give to God to show Him you are willing to obey Him, even when it costs you ...read more

    Today I want us to consider what it takes to spark the fires of revival in the heart of each of us. That spark could and will start the fires of revival that could spread across this land.

    Sermon Text: Neh 9:1-3 Now on the twenty-fourth day of this month the children of Israel were assembled with fasting, in sackcloth, and with dust on their heads. 2 Then those of Israelite lineage separated themselves from all foreigners; and they stood and confessed their sins and the iniquities ...read more

    The Apostle John wrote that in his day, the spirit of Antichrist was already at work in the world. It has not changed. The spirit of Antichrist is still at work in our day.

    There are some commands in the Bible that instruct us to "hold fast to" ... We each have things we "hold fast to". Are they Biblical or are they worldly?
