Our Christian Wardrobe

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 13, 2021

There is something that most of the public schools no longer do. They no longer teach children how to dress properly for job interviews.

Today, it is not unusual to see young people go to a job interview in clothes that look like they wore them to bed last night, and ...read more

The Mathematics Of The Christian Life

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 14, 2021

Many people take great delight in trying out different restaurants in town. Sometimes you can hear folks around church saying, "Let's get together, I have found a G-R-E-A-T restaurant!”

When a RESTAURANT serves good food, the customers will keep coming back for more, even if they have to travel a long distance to get there. The same thing is true for a CHURCH. When a church preaches and teaches the Word of God, people who are hungry for God’s Word, will be there every time the ...read more

Strong And Weak Christians Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 3, 2021

Culture Conformed Christians Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 5, 2021

Christian Education Of Women Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 5, 2021

Behave Like A Christian

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on May 15, 2022

Christians Dead To The Law

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022

This chapter seems to be in the wrong place.

WHY? In chapter 6 Paul told us clearly that Christians do not continue in sin, because when Christ died to sin, so did we. We are no longer "in Adam." Our victory over sin is established through the death of Christ Jesus. Now you would think that after this tremendous victory we have ...read more

Our Christian Legacy

Contributed by Craig Condon on Dec 22, 2015

In our world where trying to get ahead of one another seems to be the rule, God asks us to consider a new reality: to love genuinely and reciprocally, to clutch that which is good and to compete to show the most integrity.

Have you ever thought about the legacy you want to leave behind when you die? I’m not talking about a physical legacy such as the things you own. I’m talking about how you want people to remember you. The type of legacy you leave behind will depend on the kind of life you lead on earth. ...read more

Memorial For A Christian Lady

Contributed by Adam James on Feb 16, 2017

A short reflection I used for an active Christian lady who passed at the age of 90 years.

One of the major themes in the book of Ecclesiastes, and certainly a theme that is reflected in our passage this afternoon, is that everything in this life, including life itself, is temporary. The author wrote that, “For everything there is a season. A time to be born and a time to die.” Words ...read more
