Hope Of The Resurrection Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jul 24, 2018

Paul had just finished mentioning the hardships and sufferings that he had faced in the service of God. It takes great faith to stay steady under such continual sufferings and still boldly preach the Christian gospel. He has such a steady faith.

May 20, 2014 Tom Lowe The Second Epistle of Paul to the Corinthians Lesson II.B.5.a: Hope of the Resurrection. (4:13-15) 2nd Corinthians 4:13-15 (NKJV) 13 And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, "I believed and therefore I spoke," we also ...read more

John 5: The Divinity Of Christ

Contributed by Mike Bryant on Apr 24, 2021

A large share of the population, and even of Christians, believe that Jesus was not God incarnate, but a mere man. In John 5, Jesus answers those accusing Him of blasphemy with a claim of divinity that leaves no room for that belief.

I) The divinity of Jesus is a fundamental and essential tenet of Christianity. It is also one of the most difficult aspects of Christianity for the world to accept. A) A survey conducted in 2020 by Ligonier Ministries found that 52 percent of U.S. adults believe that Jesus is not God. Not only ...read more

Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity. 1 Timothy 4:12 (ESV) It's amazing how God lines things up. Because I've been thinking about this topic endlessly in the past 6 months. Purity. The further and ...read more

Grace At Work Series

Contributed by C. Philip Green on Apr 28, 2021

Submit even to a ruthless and unjust boss and so experience grace and fulfill your calling.

After a year’s worth of good, hard work, some employers like to provide a year-end bonus for their employees. Now, most employees appreciate those bonuses, but there are some who inwardly groan at what their employer gives them. Just a few years ago (December 6, 2014), a reporter for the BBC, ...read more

The Rebel Returns Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 30, 2021

We want to look at the story Jesus told about a youth who learned the hard way. It is often called the parable of the Prodigal Son, but it could just as rightly be called the parable of the Faithful Father.

"The Crucifixion; More Than An Easter Message”

Contributed by Sean Dees on May 2, 2021

Today church I want to talk to you about the importance of the cross, and how the Crucifixion is more than an Easter Message. We as the church have found ourselves forgetting about the importance of the cross and the blood that was shed on Calvary.

Intro: Today church I want to talk to you about the importance of the cross, and how the Crucifixion is more than an Easter Message.

Serving In Captivity Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 6, 2021

What would we do if our country ever came under siege by a foreign nation that did not believe in God? How could we practice our faith, and how could we live according to biblical principles?

I have entitled our message this morning “Serving in Captivity,” as we’ll be examining the events surrounding the Babylonian captivity of 587 B.C. What would we, as believers, do if our country ever came under siege by a foreign nation that did not believe in God or His Son, Jesus Christ? How ...read more

The Unseen Battle Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 6, 2021

In addition to a prayer of repentance, Daniel also offered up a prayer for the release of the Jews from their captivity in Babylon. Yet, the answer to his prayer was delayed, and it had something to do with an unseen battle.

In Daniel chapter 9 (which I said would be our last message in this series) we see where Daniel took it on himself to intercede on behalf of all the people of Israel who were in captivity in Babylon; and Daniel was just one individual, yet the Lord heard his supplication. Daniel’s prayer reminds ...read more

Faith During Uncertain Times

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 13, 2021

Maybe the future of our country looks uncertain; or we are living under oppressive leadership. But when we recognize that God is still on the throne, we find the confidence necessary to carry on with boldness!

I wish to begin our message by sharing something about the time in which Dietrich Bonhoeffer lived. The Nazi regime ascended to power on January 30, 1933. “Two days after Hitler was installed as Chancellor, Bonhoeffer delivered a radio address in which he attacked Hitler and warned Germany ...read more

God Appoints His Servants

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 15, 2021

God said both Nebuchadnezzar and Cyrus were His "servants." One brought national ruin; the other brought restoration. We need to trust that whoever is leading - king, prime minister, president - that God has placed them for a reason.

Leading up to the presidential election, we all had a favorite candidate whom we desired to win; someone who would represent our values. We envisioned how he would bring about prosperity and freedom to our nation; but if he lost, we envisioned the end of the world. Anyone of any political party ...read more

Lost Series

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Apr 21, 2021

When a Christian thinks about being lost, it’s a whole different concept from what the world sees as lost. So, let’s see how we can use the word lost in such a way that even a non-Christian will understand.

Last week we began a series on our Holy vocabulary—the words that we use as Christians that we or others might not fully understand. We talked about the word HOLY and God explained to us what makes Him holy. Today we’re going to talk about being lost. When a Christian thinks about being lost, ...read more

Individual Responsibility

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 15, 2022

This message looks at an excuse that the Israelites used for not serving the Lord. It was an excuse, which they hoped would exempt them from their own sins and their own individual responsibility; and the excuse was very shallow.

To begin our message this evening I wish to share a story. “A farmer once asked his neighbor if he might borrow a rope. ‘Sorry,’ said the neighbor. ‘I’m using my rope to tie up my milk.’ ‘Rope can’t tie up milk,’ said the farmer. ‘I know,’ replied the neighbor, ‘but when a man doesn’t want to ...read more
