    What Do I Do With God’s Will Acts Series

    Contributed by James Lee on Dec 9, 2016
     | 4,245 views

    Last week we looked at understanding God’s will… “God’ what do You want me to do right here right now that will honor You?”This week, once I understand God’s will, what do do with it? Adapted from a series by Pastor Jerry Shirley.

    What do I do with God’s Will Acts 21: 14 & Romans 12:1-2 I pulled up this old Road Runner cartoon and watched as Wiley Coyote finally caught the road runner. He is standing there next to the giant sized road runner and holds up a sign that reads; “Okay, wise guys, you always wanted me ...read more

    Liberal Theology In The Churches – Address Number 4 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 20, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,942 views

    We take 22 aspects of Liberal Theology and look at why each is wrong. Some Liberals may hold to only one of these; others, many of them, but their adherence system will incorporate most of them. It is difficult to generalise because liberal thinking expands and changes.

    This small series continues with the 4th address in Liberal Theology LIBERAL THEOLOGY IN THE CHURCHES – ADDRESS NUMBER 4 OPENING UP SOME ELEMENTS OF LIBERAL THEOLOGY - MY UNDERSTANDING OF SOME COMPONENTS OF LIBERAL THEOLOGY: EXPLANATION In 2015 I had the request to address a group in ...read more

    Sorry Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Oct 13, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,887 views

    To be sorry means "I am filled with sorrow." What can the Pharisee and the Tax Collector teach us about the value of being "filled with sorrow" before our God?

    A woman told about a conversation that she’d had with her 4-year-old son after they’d gotten out of their Bible Studies one night. She said: “My son and I were WALKING to our car, and he said to me, ‘Mom, I’m not going to sin anymore.’” I got to wondering this, so I asked him why he said that, ...read more

    Ancient Paths Are Ripped Up And Crooked Ways Prevail Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 13, 2024
     | 933 views

    Our nations have bulldozed out the ancient paths that were set for us by more decent legislators and leaders in the past; indeed, by God Himself. Every moral statute of God has now been trashed – marriage, creation, birth, sexuality. Judah did that and met God’s judgement.

    ANCIENT PATHS ARE RIPPED UP AND CROOKED WAYS PREVAIL {{Jeremiah 6:16 Thus says the LORD, “Stand by the ways and see, AND ASK FOR THE ANCIENT PATHS WHERE THE GOOD WAY IS, AND WALK IN IT, and you shall find rest for your souls, but they said, ‘We will not walk in it.

    Prime Number

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on May 7, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,133 views

    On Friend Day we looked at many of the numbers that are important to God. But there is ONE number that I believe is more important than all the others. Do you know what that number is, and why it is a "prime" number for Him?

    Today is May 7th, 2023 – or 5-7-23. Those are all PRIME numbers, which means you can’t divide them by 2, 3, 4, or anything else. Primes are numbers that can only be divided by themselves and 1. Now, I’ve never given much thought to “prime” numbers, but there is an entire discipline of mathematics ...read more

    Fitting In

    Contributed by Dale Pilgrim on Feb 13, 2011
     | 7,391 views

    comedian Lenny Bruce gives our Christian psychology a metaphorical cattle prod shock when he said, “Every day people are straying away from the church and going back to God.’” I suspect it has a lot to do with fitting in.

    “Fitting In” John 17:11-19 I read the prologue to a story called Girl in the Middle. The girl is Kim Satinsky who is in eighth grade. She says, “You would think that being in a clique is fun but take my word for it: It’s not. They make me wear expensive things when I’m not really rich and tell me ...read more

    Sometimes in our lives and in the life of a church there are things that God wants us to leave behind, and until we do we cannot embrace the powerful promise of the future.

    The Time For Action Is Now!

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Nov 4, 2025
     | 84 views

    An echo through time has been Jesus telling us that we need to bring the Gospel message out to the world. The Hebrews of His time did not understand that it was their task to do. Jesus came to the Jews first and then to the Gentiles.

    The Time for Action is Now! Luke 12:54-59 Rabbi Rev. Dr. Michael H. Koplitz Luke 12:54 And He was also saying to the crowds, “Whenever you see a cloud rising in the west, you immediately say, ‘A shower is coming,’ and so it turns out. 55 “And whenever you feel a south wind blowing, you say, ‘It ...read more
