    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 4, 2021
     | 4,846 views

    Do you remember the story about The Three Little Pigs? The first little pig built his house out of straw. The second little pig built his house out of sticks. And the third little pig worked hard and labored diligently as he built his house out of brick.

    What would things look like if Satan really took control of a city? If Satan took over a city, all the bars would be closed, pornography banished, and the city streets would be pristine with people who smiled at one another. There would be no swearing. The children would say “Yes, sir” and “No, ...read more

    The church is more important that you think.

    The Barna Group reports that about 10 million self-proclaimed born-again Christians have not been in church the last six months. Nearly all of these 10 million people say their faith is important to them, but their spiritual life has nothing to do with church. Bono, lead singer for the rock group ...read more

    What is the focus of the church?

    Let us continue to worship with the Word of God. Open your Bibles to 1 Timothy 3. Last week we noted that the Christian Church was growing in Ephesus and Timothy was appointed to lead. We noted God protecting His Church by listing qualifications for Overseers (Bishops, Pastors, Elders) and Deacons ...read more

    Protecting The Unity Of The Church

    Contributed by Greg Warren on Jun 16, 2021
     | 5,493 views

    The importance of protecting the unity of the church and practical principles and steps for doing so.

    We'd like to think that the church is immune to conflict and disagreement. After all, we're all Christians here. Right? Well, don't be naive. Hopefully, we're all striving to be like Christ. But we're also humans who sometimes fall short. We say things or react before we ...read more

    Every believer in the New Testament belonged to a local church. All fully mature followers of Christ belong to the community of church.

    First Things We Believe in Church January 12, 2020 Acts 2:44-47 NIV “All the believers were together and had everything in common. 45 Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need. 46 Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts.

    David tells us what we need to do in the church for the Lord.

    Trouble in he church today. Psalms 37: 8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil. 9 For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth. 10 For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt ...read more

    Deterrents To Church Growth

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Jan 10, 2020
     | 4,722 views

    What is church in the business of doing? Are we suppose to grow? Whose fault is it if we don't? I hope to answer some of these questions for us.

    I’m sure most of us can recall great stirring sermons that have helped and motivated us on the subject of church growth. There are many aspects to growth, such as soul winning, being a good witness for Christ. If a church is going to grow it also needs a healthy membership that will follow the ...read more

    Blessing In Church Closure

    Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Jan 20, 2020
     | 3,718 views

    Sometimes we should rejoice in the death of a church rather than mourn. After a long painful disease, we express relief when a person passes into Glory. Many churches suffer a slow and painful death. Out of that death life and renewal may come.

    Revelation 2:4  Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.  5  Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except ...read more

    Reihold Niebuhr compared the church to Noah’s Ark, “If it were not for the storm on the outside, you could not stand the stink on the inside.

    As Paul peeped through the window of the church at Corinth, he saw quarreling, jealousy, anger, selfishness, slander, gossip, conceit, and disorder. And it broke his heart. You might expect to hear of. 1. Places of employment without love. a. Just a number b. Just a tool to accomplish a task c. You ...read more

    An Inspired Description Of The Church

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Jan 31, 2020
     | 2,540 views

    In these verses of scripture, we have an authentic description of the true church of God. This is what God, Himself, says about the church. On every hand today the church and the very use of the word “church” is misunderstood.

    Reihold Niebuhr said this about the church, “The church is a lot like Noah’s ark, if it weren’t for the storm on the outside, you could not stand the stink on the inside.” True of many churches today, I don’t know of any time when the church has made more racket and been less effective in the world ...read more

    Church is taking a bashing, but it was created and called for by God.

    We live in a time in the Western Church where people are seeing less and less value in attending church. They say that God is omnipresent and in our hearts so why can’t we just be part of the invisible church? Why can’t we be Digital Disciples and just watch ...read more

    Building A Great Church Series

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Feb 11, 2020
     | 5,059 views

    Strong churches are like strong homes, they don’t “just happen”. It takes work to make them strong. Let's look at some ways from the scriptures.

    Strong churches are like strong homes, they don’t “just happen”. There are some very important ingredients – key parts. I feel the starting point to understand and remember, “It’s God’s church and it’s God’s plan.” 1. Ephesians 5:25; The church is the object of Christ’s love. 2. 1 Corinthians ...read more
