The Narrow Path - Lessons From A Tight Rope Walker

Contributed by William Akehurst on Jun 7, 2021

There are 2 paths in life; the broad way that leads to destruction and death, or the narrow way that leads to everlasting life. Traveling the narrow path requires discipline and determination to stay on task and not fall or step aside, like that of a tight rope walker.

Having Good Roots

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 15, 2022

What is having good roots? Is it being well grounded? Is it to have a firm foundation? Is it how they were raised as children? Some people talk about having good roots but their actions counter to what they say.

God does not pass judgment on individuals based on race, sex, or national origin. His judgment of them is based on their trust in Him, their obedience, and their reaction to His will. The individuals who tenaciously work or attempt to comply with God’s will resemble vigorous, fruit­ bearing ...read more

Beginnings - Fall Premium Sermon

Contributed by PRO Premium on Oct 8, 2023

This sermon explores the concept of 'new beginnings' and second chances in the Bible, using personal experiences and the story of Adam, Noah, and Abraham to discuss the human tendency to sin and the need for personal and communal 'reboots'.

When we were kids, mistakes were magically fixed with a “do-over.” As adults, God knows we still need “do-overs.” Good thing the Bible begins with a book called “Genesis.” It is not merely the beginning—it tells the story of “new-beginnings.” Generation after generation—Adam, Noah, and Abraham—God ...read more

Redemption #17 Series

Contributed by Clyde White on Mar 18, 2005

The Word of God must be an active part of our total living, NOT just our Sunday go-to-meeting life. Heb 4:12 tells us what the “living” Word of God will do. 2Pet 1:1-4 tells how we can have this “living” work of the Word of God in our “everyday” lives.

To have a clear understanding of God’s redemption for mankind, we must have a reasonable understanding of many other subjects presented in the Word of God. In past lessons, we’ve listed 20+ subjects that are interrelated to redemption, and that list is only a starting point. We will not take time ...read more
