    Appreciating Your Pastoral Leadership

    Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Aug 17, 2020
     | 8,169 views

    Paul exhorts his readers concerning their relationship with their elders.

    As I considered speaking from the following passage of Scripture, I initially felt a little uncomfortable because I was exhorting and admonishing God’s people in an area in which I was personally involved. It is similar to a single mom who has to teach a child that giving a present to his mother ...read more

    Spiritual Gangrene: Necrosis Of The Body Of Christ

    Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Sep 3, 2020
     | 3,232 views

    Paul warns Timothy to avoid godless chatter because it will spread like gangrene. Sin, like gangrene, has a way of spreading and causing division in the congregation.

    When it comes to the church, church growth is naturally related to church health. Healthy churches, like healthy people, must grow. In his book, The Purpose Driven Church, Pastor Rick Warren says that if our church is healthy, attendance will be the least of our problems. He writes that ...read more

    A Passion To Serve

    Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Sep 3, 2020
     | 8,510 views

    There is this big disconnect between loving the Lord and serving Him because many who say they love the Lord really don’t love Him. We will learn today that Jesus links together love and service.

    If one were to take a survey and ask Christians the question “Do you love the Lord” the results of the survey would probably indicate that 99.9% of all surveyed "loved the Lord." Most would even say they "loved the Lord a lot." If one were to survey these same people and ask ...read more

    Like the movie “Runaway Bride” many Christians today don’t mind “dating” the church, but they don’t want to “marry” the church. Here are 9 reasons you need to commit to the church for life!

    RUNAWAY BRIDE INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. During a wedding rehearsal, the groom approached the pastor with an unusual offer. “Look, I’ll give you $100 if you’ll change the wedding vows. When you get to the part where I’m supposed to ‘be faithful as long as we both shall live’, I’d appreciate it if ...read more

    The New Testament church is marked by suffering and trusting its Lord.

    1) Every believer has been individually gifted (Eph. 4:7); 2) Christ obtained the right to give gifts (Eph.4:8-10); 3) the Lord blesses the whole church (Eph. 4:11).
