    Doing Christian things doesn't make you a Christian.

    Many years ago, I visited someone in the hospital whom I had never met before. He was a member of the church I pastored but had not gathered for a service in years. After introducing myself I looked for a way to have a spiritual conversation with him. From all the cussing he was doing, I was ...read more

    A discussion of three important truths about patience: What it is, why it's so hard to have, and how you can display it.

    INTRODUCTION We’ve come now to the fourth fruit of the Spirit, Patience. Remember, there is one fruit, and it has nine flavors. We read about the fruit of the Spirit in Galatians 5:22-23 which says, “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, ...read more

     | 2,450 views

    Today we will be looking at the topic of “favor.”

    Today we will be looking at the topic of “favor.” Why have we chosen to include a message on the topic of favor in a series on outreach and evangelism? The answer to this question can be found in the Book of Acts where God connects favor with the addition of people to the early church. Acts 2:46 ...read more

    In The Cradle-Out Of The Grave

    Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Oct 12, 2020
     | 3,044 views

    In order to bring many people to glory, God had to leave heaven’s glory and come down and take upon Himself a body and suffer in this body and die in this body and be raised from the dead in this body. This is the reason for the season...

    Background In chapter one the writer of Hebrews begins by exalting the Son of God.

    Breaking Down Barriers Series

    Contributed by Brian Bill on Oct 24, 2020
    based on 2 ratings
     | 11,565 views

    Peter’s response to these religious rule-keepers is a model for us as we face criticism or complaints. We’ll see that Peter’s answer is more pastoral than argumentative. I see seven correctives to help us handle criticism.

    This week I shared something positive on Facebook and got pulverized. The criticism came quickly and repeatedly. Normally I’m more careful about posting about controversial matters so I wasn’t prepared for all the venomous vitriol and overwhelming opposition. One person simply replied, “Oh ...read more

    What Is Your Willoughby?

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Jan 5, 2018
     | 4,657 views

    One of my favorite episodes of The Twilight Zone is "A Stop At Willoughby". It's about a man who is so unhappy with his life that he dreams of little town where life is easy. There are many Christians who are like the story's main character.

    When I was growing up one of my favorite programs was The Twilight Zone. I have been accused of, from time to time, still living in the Twilight Zone! That’s okay. One of my favorite episodes is “A Stop at Willoughby”. The story is about a guy named Gart Williams. Now in my best Rod Sterling ...read more

     | 3,742 views

    This message is about walking with God and doing His will even when things are extremely difficult. It is human nature to choose the path of least resistance, but as a child of God, we can't in our service to Him.

    The Path of Least Resistance Scripture: Second Timothy 1:1-7; 4:2-4; First Samuel 15:1-3; 24 The title of my message this morning is “The Path of Least Resistance.” The path of least resistance is “the physical or symbolic pathway that provides the least resistance to forward motion by a ...read more

    Unbelief is the one sin out of which all other sins grow. Unbelief is the one sin that will damn you and send you to hell. Not believing in the Son of God is self-condemnation.
