    Your Response To The Word Of Christ Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Apr 19, 2021
     | 2,983 views

    How do you respond to the Word of Jesus? Is following Jesus an obedience-optional exercise for you? If it is, you stand to lose a great blessing--the freedom that only being a true follower of Jesus can provide.

    Last week I asked you a critical question: What must a person believe, in particular about Christ, to be sure of going to heaven The answer, of course, is that person must believe He is God, very God of very God, the God-Man. This morning I’m going to ask you another compelling question: What ...read more

    Sin creates a broken relationship between our Holy God and sinful human beings. We are on opposite sides. Isaiah 53 predicts that this Suffering Servant would bring a peace treaty between God and His Creation.

    The Success Of Failure Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Jun 19, 2023
     | 4,304 views

    Failure is a common experience and with God's help we can keep failure from being final. Jesus left a great example of how to handle failure when He was rejected in His own hometown.

    Introduction: A. How many of you have ever failed at something? We all have experienced failure, right? 1. Bob Hope, when asked about his early failures in stand-up comedy, said, “I would not have had anything to eat if it wasn’t for the stuff the audience threw at me.” 2.

     | 7,499 views

    On the day after Christmas, on St. Stephen’s Day, we learn that though getting to heaven is easy through Jesus, carrying his cross on earth often times isn’t. But if being a Christian is difficult, it is even more so for the unbeliever.

    Festival of St. Stephen Matthew 23:34-39 I have always had a healthy respect for all branches of the military, and not to take anything away from the other divisions of our armed forces, but one branch particularly stands out in my mind: the Marine Corps.

     | 13,222 views

    Despite being the Mother of Jesus we get the feeling that Mary was quite an ordinary person. Yet, when the angel appeared to her, she has an extraordinary response of faith. Our call is to know that Jesus brings ordinary people into His family.

    If you know your Bible, several barren women brought forth life that helped change their world and the church. We can not accept the norm of being barren in the church, let us bring forth new life. THERE IS HOPE!

    Heaven need not be an obsession, yet our relationship with God should be. It is this relationship which drives everything good in our lives. It is motivation for love for each other, gives us strength for today, and fills with hope for an eternity with Gd

    • The Bible is NOT obsessed with heaven. When Jesus speaks of the Kingdom of Heaven or the Kingdom of God, in general, He is not talking about a future housing for God and His people-He is talking about a way of living here and now. The greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven must be the servant of ...read more

    There are 1000s of different churches with their various views on baptism. Can they all be right? Probably not, but why aren't they all "right"?

    There was an antique collector passing through a small village when he saw an old man chopping wood with an ancient ax. “That’s a mighty old ax you have there,” he remarked. “Yep,” said the villager, “it once belonged to George Washington.” “George Washington??? Not really!" gasped the ...read more

    Are we really "too blessed to be stressed"? Or do you find that even when you are being blessed, Satan is attempting to "stress you out" by turning your blessing into a burden? God has already provided the remedy for our stresses.

    Zacharias, and his wife Elizabeth, were good people. They loved the Lord and attempted to follow after Him with all their heart. They were well thought of people, both being descendants of Aaron; however, there was one major blight on their life: they h

    For several weeks, I have been meditating on the biblical account of Zacharias being approached by the angel Gabriel and given the news about soon to be birth of John The Baptist.

    Bridge Builders (January 14, 2018 Second Sunday After Epiphany)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Nov 4, 2021
     | 1,866 views

    What is a priest? One way to think about what a priest does is to compare them to being a bridge builder. Why that analogy? A bridge connects pieces of land that are geographically separated, much like a priest helps people connect with God.

    BRIDGE BUILDERS (January 14, 2018 Second Sunday after Epiphany) Text: I Samuel 3:1-10 1 Samuel 3:1-10  Now the boy Samuel was ministering to the LORD under Eli. The word of the LORD was rare in those days; visions were not widespread.  (2)  At that time Eli, whose eyesight had ...read more
