     | 8,405 views

    A law of gravity is this: What comes up must come down! We see that this is true in our faith life as we look at the Acts reading of the Ascension of Jesus.

    Do you know who this person is? This person has the world record for the most valuable and expensive tooth. In 2002, the person’s tooth was valued at $35,700.

    A reminder that we are called to control what we think and dwell on. And the consequences for not.

    Title: Tear down your imaginations or they will tear you up. We are so able to identify evil when it comes in those clear vial, hateful waves. They stop us in our tracks! Take our breath way! Crush our hearts! There are times when we see evil so blatant, so powerful that we shudder with fear ...read more

    A message dealing with depression. Is it Biblical? Can believers be depressed? What can we do if we become depressed?

    Title: How to get up when you are down! Text: Psalms 42 Intro: Do you ever feel like Charlie Brown? You know what I'm talking about,‑when nothing ever goes right.

    We Fall Down And We Get Up

    Contributed by Joe Bedy on Jul 25, 2023
     | 1,786 views

    This message looks at the Believer's walk as we navigate a world of sinful humanity. We suffer from sin and we perpetrate sin. How then shall we live? How can we have a pure heart or like David become a person after God's own heart?

    f I had to give this sermon a title- It would be: WE FALL DOWN AND WE GET UP Today’s Scriptures 2 Sam 11 & 12, ps 51, 1 Jn 1: 8-9 Before I preach this message today-I want you to know I am NOT sinless NOR are you-But as we mature “in Christ”- We will sin less and less 2 Sam 11 In this chapter ...read more

    The Pride Of Thine Heart Will Bring Thee Down

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 4, 2022
     | 1,218 views

    Edom was proud of its accomplishments, but in the long run, God would bring her down. Whether they are a nation, a business, a church, or a family, those in positions of authority should not be overly self-assured.

    Obadiah is the shortest book of the Bible. It is titled The Vision of Obadiah as it prophesies the judgment to fall on the nation of Edom. The Edomites were descendants of Esau which made them related to the children of Israel (Genesis 25:19-27:45). Because of Edom's defiance of God, their ...read more

    Up Goes The Moisture, Down Comes The Rain

    Contributed by John Gaston on Apr 21, 2021
     | 4,147 views

    The Holy Spirit, and revival, have similarities to the processes of rainfall. Just as moisture must evaporate up before rain, so prayers & praise must go up. When heaven reaches the saturation point, you can expect rain!

    UP GOES THE MOISTURE, DOWN COMES THE RAIN Job 36:27-28; 1 Kgs. 18:43-44 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: WHOPPER OF A LIE 1. A young boy came home from his first day of school and confessed to his father that he told a lie. The father asked why he did it. 2. The boy said, "Well, dad, when they ...read more

    What I love about God is “God has editing rights over our prayers. He will hear them, and then he will edit them, correct them, bring them in line with His will and then hand them back to us to be resubmitted.

    The world is full of people just like the ones that we just read about. Of the names we just read they were probably good people, upstanding citizens, and probably great to hang out with. However, we probably would never even have read their names, if it hadn’t been for Jabez and his memorable ...read more

    "When ‘bad Luck’ Knocks Us Down” Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Apr 4, 2023
     | 1,470 views

    The story of Joseph being sold into slavery provides a compelling example of moments when it seems like "bad luck" has come our way when God may be up to something else.

    WHY DID THAT HAPPEN? There are moments when we feel like bad luck knocked us down. - We will get into the specifics that this passage details as we go through the sermon, but this is obviously a passage with some “just-so-happened” moments. - To use the common vernacular, someone might say, “Oh, ...read more

    Slipping Down The Lifeline – But Not To The End (We Hope) Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 17, 2022
     | 2,033 views

    There is the lifeline that connects our communion with the Lord but we can slip and fail, and so we slip down that lifeline of communion. Many of the great men of God failed but were wonderfully restored in the comfort of God. What can we lose as we slip? How do we return?

    SLIPPING DOWN THE LIFELINE – BUT NOT TO THE END (we hope) Tales are told of people in rescue attempts trying to hold on to a rope in the stormy sea or raging river and over time their grip lessens and through fatigue they slip further and further down the rescue rope until they disappear. That ...read more
