    There are only two possible ways you can approach God - with belief or unbelief. You either believe God, or you don’t believe him. You either put faith in Christ, or you don’t put faith in Christ. You only come to Him by faith in Jesus Christ, or you don’t come to Him at all.

    As most of you know, an eighteen-year-old young man took twenty-one lives at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, TX, on Tuesday. Nineteen of these lives were elementary-aged children. This is the deadliest school shooting in Texas history and it’s incomprehensible to me that we have such a category. ...read more

    You’re not alone when you’re in the groan zone

    Over the past couple years, I’ve gotten to know a guy I see when I’m out in the community working on my sermons. We’ve had some gospel conversations in the past and he knows I’m a pastor. On Wednesday, he came up to me and said he had a question he wanted to ask me: “What percent of your people ...read more

    The Anger Issue

    Contributed by Dennis Lee on Sep 4, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,805 views

    When our temperature begins to rise, and we start to get angry over a slight or a wrong, what are we to do? I mean, is it possible to be angry and not sin? In Sunday Morning’s message will be looking at what the Bible says, “Be angry, and do not sin.”

    The Anger Issue Ephesians 4:26-27 Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpH0NtBfAWY In the Apostle Paul’s letter to the church in Ephesus, he makes one of the most controversial and one of the most discussed statements from his writings, if not in the Bible itself. “Be angry, and do not sin: ...read more

    Following his rise to power, David conquered the city of Jerusalem. He established it as Israel's capital, subsequently taking the Ark of the Covenant into the city to be the central point of worship in the Israelite religion.

    According to the Hebrew Bible, David was the third king of the United Kingdom of Israel. In the Books of Samuel, he is described as a young shepherd and harpist who gains fame by slaying Goliath, a champion of the Philistines, in southern Canaan. David becomes a favorite of Saul, the first king of ...read more

     | 3,794 views

    Abraham’s faith produced obedience to the God who gave him promises. He based his life upon the future fulfillment of divine promises. He exhibited his faith by living the present life in the hope of the future fulfillment of God’s promises.

    HEBREWS 11: 8-12 ABRAHAM & SARAH’S LIFE OF FAITH [Leaving a Legacy Series] [Romans 4:20-22; Acts 7:2-5; Gen. 12, 17, 18] There are only two ways to live. One way, by far the most common, is to live by sight, to base everything on what you can see. This is an empirical or scientific way. ...read more

    It is a blessed privilege when we as fellow humans beings are able, in the mist of family and friends who are hurting, when we are able to put our arms around them to be a source of strength and comfort.

    How blessed we are that the Lord has allowed us to make our way into His house, once again. That is why we ought to take advantage of ever opportunity we have to be a part of worship. Amen. Because there may come a day when you want to get here and not be able to. Then you won’t have to sit at home ...read more

    The Beginning Of Wisdom Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Oct 2, 2022
     | 3,574 views

    This is the opening sermon for a series based on The Book of Proverbs. I thought it would be a good idea to start a series based on the preeminent book of wisdom literature by discussing and defining what the book means by "wisdom" starting with the first chapter of The Book of Proverbs.

    [Hold up Bible.] I love this book. You’ve heard me refer to it as “The Owner’s Manual.” It contains stories, history, poetry, adventure, drama. It contains hymns. It contains theology, philosophy, and it contains wisdom. Every book in the Bible is there for a reason. Believe it or not, not ...read more

    Mary learned to trust the great I Am, not just for the things in the past but to trust in who He is right now, the resurrection and the life. Not just for the future but for her present situation and reality.

    John chapters 11-12 record the last week of Jesus' life, and we are now seeing more of the personal interactions between Jesus and those closest to Him. Because it was a week before the Passover celebration, pilgrims from all over the region were arriving a week early to prepare themselves for ...read more

    Children Of The Devil

    Contributed by Paul Green on Oct 6, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,172 views

    Our earthly heritage isn't important, but our spiritual heritage is. Just as we reflect the image of our earthly fathers – so also we reflect the image of our spiritual father. If you want to know whether you’re a child of God or a child of the devil – just take a look in the mirror.

    Jesus says, ‘You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.’ (v44) I wonder ...read more
