What Is Spirituality? (3 Of 7)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 1, 2022

Most of us at times have looked at someone we thought was attractive physically, and thought we certainly would like to look like them if we could.

Rolling Stones

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Apr 2, 2022

One of major problems most people face today are blocked entrances or exits. You see, we’re caught in tombs with stones covering them, and these stones keep us from entering the light of an abundant life Jesus came to give, which is what the resurrection of Jesus is all about.

Rolling Stones Mark 16:1-8 Now, I knew the danger of naming today’s study, “Rolling Stones,” because many of you immediately thought of the English rock band by the same name with Mick Jagger and the crew. Or maybe you also thought about the monthly magazine from the 60’s whose focus was ...read more

A Life Of Ingratitude (Thanksgiving Sermon)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 6, 2022

It is sad that today in churches we find many people who have not REJECTED salvation in the Lord Jesus Christ, but they have NEGLECTED the salvation they have in Christ.

We all know a great deal about REJECTION and rejection can be very painful. We normally learn about rejection when we are a child, but if we do not learn anything about it as a child, we probably learned something about it when we began dating. Illus: I read this list of the top rejection lines ...read more

Mary, Did You Know?

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 26, 2022

We are all making exciting plans for Christmas. But in this sermon I want to talk to you about God’s plan for the first Christmas.

One thing that gets us upset, is when we have things all planned out and someone comes along and ruins our plans. For example, suppose you had plans for Saturday. You were going to take the family to the lake, and have a nice family picnic. You have been planning this picnic for weeks and you had ...read more

Hope When I Feel Alone Series

Contributed by Perry Fowler on Dec 6, 2023

The birth announcement of Jesus was exciting and challenging all at the same time. Immediately she experienced "aloneness." Her fiancé wanted to put her away privately. Her future kids would not initially believe her story. What do we learn from Mary's "aloneness?"

This year is the 33rd anniversary of the “Home Alone” movie where a young boy named Kevin McAlister was accidently left behind and alone in his home during the holidays while his family causing young Kevin to have to set up bungling traps for “to be” burglars- “Harry and Marv.” The last 33 years ...read more

What's A Preacher To Do? Series

Contributed by David Owens on Jun 20, 2022

After Paul's customary, brief introduction, he moved right into the challenges facing Timothy in his ministry in Ephesus. We can distill Paul's advice to Timothy down into four directives.

Introduction: A. Ministry can be a challenge for ministers and for members – How’s that for an understatement? B. But imagine seeing this “want ad” for a preacher: 1. “Must have experience as a shepherd, CEO, office manager, educator, salesman, diplomat, referee, writer, theologian, politician, ...read more
