     | 7,422 views

    Many congregations are full of people, do they look like sheep or goats. Their eternal destiny relies on this appearance.

    My Sheep Matt 25:40ff Lynn Anderson, in "They Smell Like Sheep relates this story: “Several years ago in Palestine, Carolyn and I rode a tour bus through Israel’s countryside nearly mesmerized as the tour guide explained the scenery, the history, and the lifestyle. In his description, ...read more

    The men walking to Emmaus didn't recognize Jesus until their eyes were opened.

    Luke 24:13-35 “Incognito” INTRODUCTION In our close relationships, we strive to be together even when we are apart. Some of us have family and friend pictures on our desks, or in our wallets and purses. We may carry a letter or special card, which we take out and read on ...read more

    Follow The Instructions

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Aug 13, 2013
     | 10,971 views

    Follow the instructions of Jesus by praying "The Lord's Prayer" with shameless audacity!

    Instructions. We have all, at some point in time, wrestled with following the instructions. It may be for a home improvement project, piecing together a pressboard bookshelf, or reading down the side of a box learning how to prepare that particular side-dish for supper. Instructions are an ...read more

Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken and immediately all the doors were opened, and everyone’s chains were loosed.” Acts 16:25-26 “At ...read more

    Is The Christmas Season Orderly

    Contributed by Jason Jones on Jun 10, 2024
     | 634 views

    As Christians, we are called to base our lives upon facts. As we approach Christmas, we are called upon to understand it biblically. Praise the Lord we have a record preserved for us. It’s ordered so that we may know we have eternal life.

    Background to passage: Luke probably wrote his gospel at the request of Paul sometime in the early 60s, possibly while Paul was imprisoned in Caesarea. Paul needed a more gentile friendly gospel, and Luke had a opportunity to talk to many eyewitnesses during the two years that Paul was in Israel. ...read more

    Church struggling to survive? Maybe you have cracks in the foundation or the wrong foundation.

    1 Corinthians 3:11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Ephesians 2:20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; If a church is built upon a man, it will not stand when the man is ...read more

    A Time To Dance

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 8, 2004
    based on 40 ratings
     | 12,122 views

    Funeral sermon for Vera Byars, court information specialist and amateur dancer. Ballroom, minuet/ballet, tap -- whatever style she used, it all witnessed to a life of joy. This is not any longer a time to mourn.

    I agree with the Scripture, where it says that, “For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven.” I agree with that, because we know that some things are fine, in their place, but they are not appropriate in other places. There is a time and a season for everything, ...read more

    Envisioning A Dream For Your Joshua

     | 5,316 views

    1988. We may be at a point in our lives where we know we will never fully realize our dreams, but we can find fulfillment if we can identify and encourage others to embody our values.

    Several years ago a rather childish and tasteless movie, but nevertheless one good for escape purposes, made the rounds. The movie was called National Lampoon’s Vacation. It starred Chevy Chase, a batch of kids, fleeting glimpses of seductive models, and a monster station wagon that developed a ...read more

    No one is immune from loneliness. Even godly men and women sometimes experience loneliness in their pilgrimage through this world. This message helped many in our church body.

    Who Was Cain's Wife?

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Sep 6, 2015
     | 7,852 views

    Some have adopted the viewpoint that Cain's wife belonged to a separate group of people with little or no connection with Adam and Eve. However, the Gospel message requires that all have descended from Adam and Eve..

    Why is it important? Many skeptics have claimed that, for Cain to find a wife, there must have been other ‘races’ of people on the Earth who were not descendants of Adam and Eve. To many people, this question is a stumbling block to accepting the creation account in Genesis and its ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 14,454 views

    If you are saved and choose to ignore your family/friends, you will still go to heaven but if they die in their sins they will spend eternity in hell remembering that you refused every opportunity you had to tell them how to be saved.

    “Almost but lost” Acts 26:28-29 Lori was 14 years old when she was baptized at Blue Springs Community Church, a one-room country church only a few miles from her house.

    God Is In Control Of You? Series

     | 4,996 views

    One famous preacher in history stated that, "that every particle of dust that dances in the sunbeam does not move an atom more or less than God wishes.” Meaning that God controls EVERYTHING. Period. Is that true? Let's examine the Scriptures together.

    Is God in control of you? I mean, right now! Is He in control of you? There are people who believe that, yes, it is all God’s doing. Charles Spurgeon said, “I believe that every particle of dust that dances in the sunbeam does not move an atom more or less than God ...read more
