    Faith Soars! Fear Crawls.

    Contributed by John Gaston on Sep 15, 2022
     | 2,786 views

    Many Christians have settled for survival existence; they’re not expecting the abundance or the supernatural of God. They have been crippled by anxiety, disappointments, or fears. God commands us to wake up to faith.

    FAITH SOARS! FEAR CRAWLS. 2 Tim 1:6-7 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. There are a lot of things in our lives that cause us to worry. Rick Majerus, men’s basketball coach at the University of Utah, recently captured a common concern: “Everyone’s worried about the economy this year. Hey, my hairline is ...read more

    Spiritually Paralyzed

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jul 9, 2018
     | 20,988 views

    Spiritual dryness, or spiritual paralysis can slip up on us when we least expect it. How does our spiritual life compare to the plight of the crippled man by the Pool of Bethesda?

    For the past few Sundays we have been discussing spiritual growth. It started as we talked specifically about what blaspheming the Holy Spirit is. The next Sunday we talked about how the Holy Spirit indwells you. We have looked at how Jesus is the Living Water in our lives and that if we accept ...read more

    based on 69 ratings
     | 25,039 views

    How do you do "church"? Is it about going to a building and singing songs, praying prayers and listening to a sermon... or is there something more to it than that?

    OPEN: Years ago at summer camp I learned this little song. If you know it sing along with me: Peter and John went to pray. They met a lame man on the way. He held out his palm and asked for an alm, and this is what Peter did say: "Silver and gold have I none, but such as I have give I thee. In ...read more

    The Connie Waltman Funeral

    Contributed by Charles Clary on Mar 31, 2014
     | 6,252 views

    This is my eulogy for a lady named Connie who was severely crippled with rheumatoid arthritis. Her husband, Rex, in his care for her, was a great inspiration to our church family. Connie was a model of patient endurance.

    It was not Roe vs. Wade. It was Runnelstown vs. Wade. It was a football game to be played on Runnelstown's (Miss.) field. A young gentleman named Rex, a student at the University of Southern Mississippi at Hattiesburg, came to see his Wade Hornets play. He did not know that across the field ...read more

    Offence: The Bait Of Satan

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jun 26, 2025
     | 170 views

    Offence is one of Satan’s most dangerous and subtle traps. It can cripple a person spiritually, emotionally, and relationally. But God gives us the grace to overcome offence through the power of love, humility, and forgiveness.

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Luke 17:1 Supporting Texts: Proverbs 18:19, Matthew 24:10, 2 Timothy 2:24–26, Hebrews 12:14–15, 2 Corinthians 2:10–11 INTRODUCTION: Jesus made it clear in Luke 17:1 that “it is impossible but that offences will come.” This truth ...read more

    Friends In High Places Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on May 18, 2014
    based on 15 ratings
     | 37,523 views

    What impressed Jesus in this story was the faith of the men who'd brought their friend to him - a friend who was crippled and lived in a low place of life. The phrase is "Jesus saw their faith." What does that mean? And what can it mean to us?

    A few years back, Garth Brooks came out with a popular Country and Western song called: “I’ve Got Friends In Low Places” How many of you have ever heard the song? (when most of them raised their hands, I stage whispered: “Pagans”) It has a catchy tune, but it is NOT a ...read more

    A sermon in the "Lose the weight of ..." series. This message challenges the church to live lives of financial contentment. We shouldn’t bind ourselves in debt, trying to live a life we can’t afford. Debt cripples the church.

    “I will surely show kindness to you for the sake of your father Jonathan,” is a dynamic verse of grace. The whole story of Mephibosheth is a delightful display of grace from a merciful God. Includes us too. You will love this account. It means so much.

    ABOUNDING GRACE – MEPHIBOSHETH ENTERED INTO THE KINDNESS OF GRACE INTRODUCTION When you come in from a very brightly lit room where you have been for a few hours, and into a closed room where there is just one candle on a table, all is dull.

    God repeatedly tells me I should be thankful for all things. But there are times I don’t want to thankful. There are times I don’t FEEL thankful. So how can I obey God when that happens?

    Fear cripples and paralyzes. Sometimes it is the fear of being rejected by someone else, or it could be the fear of not having some material thing. It can also be the fear of pain or even death. But fear of the future or the fear of man is a sin. So, how

    The Synagogue Ruler (Chief Pastor) got really wound -up when Jesus healed a crippled woman half way through his sermon, in the Synagogue and (in particular) on the Sabbath. Healing someone on the Sabbath was the problem. So, this sermon asks what the Sabb
