"Give Me A Man” 1 Samuel 17:10: Sermon On Biblical Manhood

Contributed by Tim White on May 9, 2011

David and Saul faced the same giant obstacle to leadership, but only David revealed Biblical manhood.

Goliath’s had no idea what he was asking for when he bellowed like an out of tune tuba: “GIVE ME A MAN!” Wayne Grudem and John Piper identified and addressed a problem in leadership back in 1991 which is still relevant: “A controversy of major proportions has spread through the church. It began ...read more

The Reality Of Hell

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 21, 2022

The Bible speaks about a real place called hell, and it’s a place where many people will unfortunately go when they die. But some individuals reason that hell is contradictory to God’s love and mercy and should not be preached.

I have entitled our message this morning “The Reality of Hell.” Hell is a topic that tends to be avoided in a lot of churches and by a lot of pastors today. One person has accurately identified the perception of hell today when he said, “Since the days of fiery sermons from Puritan preachers like ...read more

Teachers And Wannabes Series

Contributed by Michael Stark on Feb 23, 2013

Not everyone who claims to be a teacher has received appointment from God.

“Certain persons, by swerving from these, have wandered away into vain discussion, desiring to be teachers of the law, without understanding either what they are saying or the things about which they make confident assertions.” [1] Ultimately, it is not the one who is the most polished speaker who ...read more

Together In Sin, Alone In Jesus

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 18, 2009

Done as a pulpit dialogue between a spectator at the stoning of the woman taken in adultery and a prosecutor trying him for not sharing in the stoning. JMS, my initials; HM, initials of the church member who played the prosecutor.

JMS: What are you doing to me? This is outrageous! You have no business putting me on trial! I didn’t do any more than anybody else did. Let me go! This is crazy! HM: You know exactly why I’m putting you on trial. That woman was as guilty as sin, and so are you. You were with her. You ...read more

Telling The Truth

Contributed by Alan Perkins on Jun 16, 2002

We can afford to be honest about our flaws and failings, because we are completely loved and accepted in Christ.

"Most Christians are habitual liars." Let me repeat that: "Most Christians are habitual liars." And quite proficient at it, too. Now, of course we don’t call it lying. And we don’t think of it as lying. In fact, we don’t think of it at all; we just do it, and that’s part of the problem. We’ve ...read more

Making Life Count

Contributed by Richard White on Feb 24, 2005

What will we leave behind, what will be our legacy. Even in the face of death, Paul’s concern was for his young protoge Timothy.

Making LIFE COUNT 2 Timothy 2:1-2:13 I still remember the exact moment when I realized that I was truly an adult. It wasn’t my 18th birthday, or when I enlisted in the Navy a few years later. It wasn’t even when I got married a year after that I first realized I was an adult when I was 22 ...read more

Stand Your Ground

Contributed by Jose R. Hernandez on Jul 10, 2007

To serve the Lord appropriately we need to be courageous and brave.

If you remember, last week I ended the service reminding everyone of who we were. As we saw in the scriptures that we “are chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God,” being all of these things is a great privilege, but there is something else that we are. As the ...read more

A look at Nicodemus from a pragmatic perspective

Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a member of the Jewish ruling council. He came to Jesus at night...—John 3:1, 2a Nicodemus, who had gone to Jesus earlier and who was one of their own number, asked, "Does our law condemn anyone without first hearing him to find out what he is ...read more

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Mar 28, 2008

Murderer's Row! Series

Contributed by Terry Blankenship on Mar 14, 2012

Murder comes in many different forms. It is misunderstood in our culture. Some religions believe that stepping on a bug or ant is equivalent to murder. What does the Word of God say about it?

Exodus 20:13 Murderer’s Row! As I prepared this series, I realized how little we actually preach or teach on the Ten Commandments as if they are neither important nor relevant. They are both. It was very enlightening to me to preach through them. I learned a lot! I trust this series will ...read more
