    The Rightness Of Divine Self-Promotion Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Nov 1, 2021
     | 4,006 views

    While it is wrong and inappropriate for us to make it all about us and to devote our lives to self-promotion, it is altogether right and good to make it all about God and for God to be engaged in divine self-promotion.

    A. One day a little boy was overheard talking to himself as he strutted on to the baseball diamond wearing his baseball cap and toting a ball and bat, “I’m the greatest hitter in the world,” he announced. 1. Then, he tossed the ball into the air, swung at it, and missed. 2. “Strike One!” he ...read more

    What Kind Of Faith Saves? Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Nov 27, 2021
     | 3,190 views

    Most of us know people who say they believe in Christ, and yet there is nothing about their lives that distinguishes from non-Christians otherwise? So what kind of faith actually saves?

    What kind of faith saves? It’s an important question. It’s a critical question because we all know many people who say they believe in Jesus. But there’s virtually nothing in their lives that sets them out as any different from the non-Christian who lives next door. They neither attend church, ...read more

    One … But Different!

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 16, 2021
     | 1,801 views

    When we look at a crowd of people, we see that each person is different. That difference can be seen in many ways.

    Illus: Our difference reminds me of the three women who were convicted of criminal charges and were brought before a firing squad. • One was a redhead, and all the guns were pointed at her and the Captain said, “Ready, Aim…,” and the redhead hollered “Earthquake”. They all looked around and she ...read more

    A Prayer For God’s Will

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 6, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,095 views

    When it comes to praying for God’s will, we often find ourselves at a loss for words. Perhaps, the way to make the greatest impact is to ask for a blessing; to pray for the spiritual and material resources we need to enlarge the kingdom.

    I’ve entitled our message this morning “A Prayer for God’s Will.” When we think of God’s will we often have in mind how the Lord wants to use us for His glory; how God wants to include us in His plans and work through us to make an impact for the kingdom. But when it comes to praying for God’s ...read more

    Finding The Lord’s Will

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 17, 2022
     | 1,250 views

    Some would have us believe that one of the hardest things in this life to find, is the will of God for our lives.

    Illus: Some think that finding the will of God for our life is like playing the game where you put a marble on the table, turn three cups upside down with one of the cups covering the marble. And then someone very quickly switches them around, then you try to guess which cup the marble is under. ...read more

    The Little Man With A Big Need

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 22, 2022
     | 3,092 views

    This is a popular text with preachers, and I have heard several intriguing titles for it besides the one I am using today.

    Here are some of them that I recall: • A man who went out on a limb for Jesus • The Salvation of Shorty the Racketeer • The Short Scoundrel that Seriously Sought The Saviour • Seeking the True Vine By Sitting In A Tall tree Any of these titles would be appropriate for this sermon, but I have ...read more

    Singing In The Rain…

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 23, 2022
     | 3,407 views

    Introduction: I want to preach a sermon called, “Singing in the Rain.” The words “Singing In The Rain…” come from a famous song sung by Donald O’ Conner. The idea of course is that we often plan things in life and then the rain comes and spoils those plans.

    Illus: Possibly: • We are going to watch a parade, but the rain comes and spoils our parade • We are going on a picnic in the park with our family, but once we spread the lunch, the rain begins and ruins our picnic If we are going to be successful in this life spiritually, THE RAIN WILL CERTAINLY ...read more

     | 3,197 views

    Isaiah’s prophecy applies to believers today, providing the words we need to move us into action in sharing our faith. This passage contains two parts: first, the gospel message; and secondly, assurance for the evangelist.

    Isaiah chapter 55 shares a message that can be applied to those getting ready to embark on a missionary journey, and to those getting prepared to share their faith in Christ. Within this passage is contained a two-part teaching. The first part, found in verses 1-7, shares the basic content of the ...read more

    The Psalm begins with a well known verse and looks at the beauty of Zion, the protection of the Lord, His loving kindness and praise through the earth. Upheld by the right hand of God, we are kept until, and through death.

     | 985 views

    We want to look again at this passage of scripture that tells us we should ADD certain things TO OUR FAITH.

    In this sermon, we want to see that we should ADD TO OUR FAITH PATIENCE! Illus: Patience gives us a fit in this life! A man noticed a woman in the grocery store with a very hyper three year old girl in her cart. As the mother and her child passed the cookie section, the little girl asked for ...read more

    Every day they go around destroying: • People’s happiness • People’s lives • People’s character It is just a way of life with them! They are a walking disaster. Illus: They remind me of one of these slimy worms that crawl around and wherever they go they leave behind them a trail of slime. The ...read more
