A Dove On Distant Oaks Series

Contributed by Michael Stark on Sep 7, 2022

What If?

Contributed by Charlie Roberts on Mar 25, 2017

Its only when we take ourselves and the word if out of the equation and trust God to do the impossible. The story concludes with not a question of if, but the fact that David answered and stepped out of if, into faith! Are you willing to do the same?

What if? Illus. From sermon central A certain king needed a faithful servant and had to choose between two candidates for the office. He took both at fixed wages and told them to fill a basket with water from a nearby well, saying that he would come in the evening to inspect their work. After ...read more

The Crucifixion In Psalm 22 Series

Contributed by Joseph Marshall on Nov 21, 2022

This Psalm is one of the most amazing Messianic Psalms. This is a Psalm of David, and yet (like most prophetic writings) the words move beyond the immediate meaning and refer to something grander yet future – in this case, the sufferings of Jesus upon the cross.

How To Be A Servant After God’s Own Heart Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jan 10, 2026

Why was David a man after God's own heart... but Saul wasn't? And what can that tell me about how I can be a man after God's own heart?

I never thought about it before, but our culture talks a lot about our HEARTS. For example: If we want to have an intimate and personal talk with someone, we say that we want to have a “heart-to-heart”. If we’ve had a really good day, we might say that we are feeling “Lighthearted.” If we know ...read more

The Cost Of A Christ-Centered Life

Contributed by Tony Searles on Nov 3, 2003

Salvation is a free gift, it can’t be earned or deserved. However, for the Christian to live a life Centered on Christ...it will cost us something. David would not give what did not cost him anything...so what are our "costs"?
