  • Turn On The Light Series

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 5, 2021
     | 3,003 views

    The famous saying, it is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness, applies to our subject. There is only one way to overcome and defeat the darkness of sin and ignorance, and that is by turning on the light of the lamp of God. The Bible alone can give us the light we need for guidance.

    Almost everyone knows of Lazarus, the man whose name has become immortal because of his experience of being raised from the bondage and darkness of death to the liberty and light of life. Few people are conscious, however, of the Jewish woman by the name of Lazarus. Her poem is engraved on the ...read more

  • A God-Planted Church

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 16, 2022
     | 2,330 views

    Today I want to talk to you about church planting, because all churches are not GOD PLANTED!

    HOW DOES GOD PLANT A CHURCH? CHURCH PLANTING is something like what a farmer does, he plants the seed, cultivates the seed, fertilizes the seed and then patiently waits for it to grow. Church planters basically do the same thing. They have to plant the seed (Gospel), cultivate the seed, ...read more

  • Who And What Matters In Life

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 25, 2022
     | 2,483 views

    I want to preach on something today that applies to everyone here, and I hope you will give me your undivided attention.

    Illus: This sermon reminds me of a new pastor that came to his first church. Being new in the ministry he did not know what to expect. For four weeks he was very busy. He had eight funerals and five weddings plus his other duties. He did not have time to write his regular Sunday sermon so he used ...read more

  • Getting Acquainted With God

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 7, 2022
     | 1,776 views

    Occasionally I lose things and can not find them. Since my children are grown up and no longer live with us, I have no one to blame it on.

    Thank God for wives who can find things! It seems the older we get the more we forget things! Illus: Sometimes I feel like the woman who stood at the bottom of the staircase and she could not remember if she just came down or was going to go up. I must also confess that there are days that I ...read more

  • A Question Of Resurrection.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 22, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,083 views

    Jesus teaches the resurrection of the dead.

    A QUESTION OF RESURRECTION. Mark 12:18-27. There have probably always been, and always will be, people whose so-called ‘faith’ is defined not so much by what they BELIEVE, as by what they DO NOT BELIEVE. Yet people will stand and rattle off ‘their’ Creeds without a thought, and when ...read more

  • The Prophet Isaiah 1 Of 2

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 27, 2022
     | 1,745 views

    We hear a lot of these television preachers give the impression that God comes down at least twice a day and visits and talks to them in an audible voice about the things He wants them to do.

    I find it hard to believe what many of these television preachers preach and teach most of the time. Much of it is UNSCRIPTURAL AND RIDICULOUS! They make the Lord’s work look bad! When one comes up with a new idea for making more money, the others seem to follow. I am sure there must be some good ...read more

  • What We Believe About The Bible Series

    Contributed by Todd Blair on May 9, 2022
     | 1,858 views

    How do we know scripture is truth?

    Okay, it's sure good to be back! I took a couple of Sundays off and that was very nice but I'm glad to be back up here. I want to start by asking you some questions. Think of it sort of like an IQ test. I have a range of topics to ask about; just general knowledge stuff. Sort of like a ...read more

  • …the Good Hand Of His God Upon Him

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 9, 2021
     | 3,581 views

    Today in this sermon, we want to turn our attention to a very special man. His name is Ezra. He is one of those fellows you do not hear a great deal about, but yet he was a giant among men in the spiritual world.

    Ezra was a priest, but he was not able to serve in the temple because the temple had been destroyed. This could be why we do not hear a lot about Ezra. He was not a temple priest. Ezra is noted for other things, such as: • He studied the Word of God. In Ezra 7:6, we read that he was, “A ready ...read more

    1 Peter 2:1-3 1So put away all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander. 2 Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, -- that by it you may grow up into salvation 3 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good. (ESV) A recent report from the Christian ministry ...read more

  • Looking For Answers In The Wrong Places

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Oct 24, 2021
     | 2,230 views

    We must know beyond any doubt that our God does speak to us. The LORD God comes near to us, and with living words He tells us his will. God speaks to us, and directs us in what we’ve got to do.

    Some years ago I saw a sign out front of a church. The sign read: “There are Some Questions that Can’t Be Answered By Google.” It’s a good point. Because where do you turn for answers to your questions? Many turn almost automatically to Google. If we want information, or directions, or inspiration, ...read more

    Memorizing the Word Jeffery Anselmi / General Reclaim- The Book of Ezra INTRODUCTION • Have you ever forgotten something that was important not to forget? • Maybe it was a step in the process of building something, or perhaps it was a birthday or anniversary. • It is easy to forget what is ...read more

  • Receiving The Word Series

    Contributed by Aneel Aranha on Jan 28, 2021
     | 2,484 views

    God’s word will change us if we receive it. But how do we receive it fruitfully?

    Scripture Reading: Mark 4:26-34 He also said, “The kingdom of God is as if someone would scatter seed on the ground, and would sleep and rise night and day, and the seed would sprout and grow, he does not know how. The earth produces of itself, first the stalk, then the head, then the full grain ...read more

  • The Bible And God's Will

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Feb 1, 2021
     | 947 views

    The Bible is life’s operating manual. It teaches us how to live in every major issue we face in life. It’s a sure guide to success. Unfortunately, too many fail to read the instructions.

    Last time, we talked about God’s Will versus our will. We learned a little about predestination. And I tried to answer many of the questions about predestination. Does God choose us even if we don’t want Him to? Does God choose some people but not others? How can you know what God’s will and ...read more
