Becoming Bitter Or Better

Contributed by Howard Strickland on Sep 15, 2010

During this time period, David sees no evidence that God cares. Everything David does is met with stubborn opposition and expressions of hatred. Here he describes his experience with betrayal…Few experiences are more painful than betrayal.

Becoming Bitter or Better  TEXT: Psalm 109:1-5 O God, whom I praise, do not remain silent, 2 for wicked and deceitful men have opened their mouths against me; they have spoken against me with lying tongues. 3 With words of hatred they surround me; they attack me without cause. 4 In return for ...read more

Is There Not A Cause? Series

Contributed by Dave Rajoon on Jan 19, 2007

There are giants stalking the land and many people are too afraid to take up the challenge to stand and fight. David faced a giant one day and while everyone cowered and his brothers berated him, David asked: "Is there not a Cause?"

BIG IDEA: Giants are stalking the land but the church seems to be burying its head in the sand. We must get up and fight because there is a cause. Introduction: David was the youngest of the eight sons of Jesse. Three of his brothers served in Saul’s army. There names were Eliab who was the ...read more

Giving Our Best For God

Contributed by Bradford Robinson on Oct 12, 2006

This is a passage that really speaks for itself. It looks at how much the glass of water meant to David, the great lengths his men went to get it, and how David then gave it to God in worship. Would we be willing to do the same?

I want you all to turn with me to the book of 2 Samuel 23:13-17, but I’m not going to read it to you right now like we normally do. I want to tell this story and build on it because this is a story that almost preaches itself. It’s a powerful story that shows a lot about the heart of David and ...read more

A Heart For God

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 30, 2015

Psalm 19 has been called the most majestic of David’s Psalms. It falls into two main sections dealing respectively with Creation and Covenant, with an application to follow. These seemingly distinct parts form one unified, progressive whole.

A HEART FOR GOD. Psalm 19. In July 1994, Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 (formerly D/1993 F2) broke apart and collided with the far side of Jupiter. On that occasion I preached on “The heavens declare the glory of God” (Psalm 19:1), and wondered at the perfection of God’s creation. God placed the earth ...read more

As The Deer Pants

Contributed by John Gaston on Sep 1, 2021

The Census Plague

Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Jun 8, 2020

David appears to have been both directed by God and enticed by Satan to conduct a census. A census was begun, David was smitten in his conscience, and the nation was severely punished. What's our take-away from this story?

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 9, 2021

Have You Ever Been Fired? Don’t raise your hand, but have you ever been fired from a job? Did you know it was coming, that feeling in your stomach?

Jesus tells a most peculiar parable in His day, the Story of a Dishonest Man. It’s is widely considered one of the most difficult parables – if not the most difficult – to understand.

Get Off The Mountain

The Fruitful Believer Series

Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on Jan 14, 2022

Jesus provides us an image of what the fruitful believer looks like. Jesus likens Himself to a vine, and the Father is the one for cares for the vine. The believers in Christ Jesus - the ones who are alive and receiving life from the vine - are the branches of vine with the purpose of bearing fruit.

Introduction As I wrote this message, it is clear that things are not right in the world. There are ongoing struggles as a result of COVID-19 and the response by politicians and globalists.

Lesson Of The Loaves

Contributed by Grant Adams on Jan 24, 2021

Jesus often uses the common things of our life to teach us some of the most valuable lessons. John 10; I am the door; John 15; I am the vine and ye are the branches. In this passage of scriptures, Jesus is giving a lesson and then proctoring an exam

Let’s read verses 34-52. In some ways this is a mystery. What connection should the loaves have with the ship? When they were in the ship, the wind was blowing contrary to the way they were trying to go. I wonder if you have ever been in that spot. 1. You have your goals set, a place where you feel ...read more
