    based on 1 rating
     | 11,728 views

    In this sermon, we explore three important questions about anxiety: what is worry, what causes us to worry, and what is the solution for worry.

    Every Member Matters

    Contributed by Kraig Pullam on Feb 18, 2014

     | 24,078 views

    The scripture reveals the significance of every member within the body of Christ, the church. We all are important to God; and should in like manner be important to one another in Christ.

    The story deals with a rather old fashioned lady, who was planning a couple of weeks vacation in Florida. She also was quite delicate and elegant with her language. She wrote a letter to a particular campground and asked for reservations. She wanted to make sure the campground was fully equipped ...read more

    What Is The Generation Jesus Will Return?

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Sep 27, 2023
    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,440 views

    Some Scholars say the term “generation” means an average life span and refers either to the generations in which Jesus lived while on Earth or to the generation living when the end time signs begin to occur.

    The word “generation” (Gk: ‘genea’) can refer to the age or period of the members of a family as determined by the average span of life (Genesis 31:3; Matthew 1:17, 17:17; Mark 9:19; Luke 9:41, 16:8; Acts 2:40), as well as all the people of a given period (Matthew 24:34, Mark 13:30, Luke 1:48, ...read more

    There’s an old and ancient Chinese proverb which says, if you wish to be happy for one hour, get intoxicated. If you wish to be happy for three days, get married.

    Legal Counsel For Christians Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 4, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,029 views

    Jesus provides counsel on domestic disputes, sex crimes, adultery and divorce; and He even says something that can be applied to swearing on the Bible in a court of law. Jesus, being part of the court of heaven, knows about legal matters!

    I have entitled our message for this morning, “Legal Counsel for Christians.” You may not realize it, but the Bible is full of courtroom imagery. The most noteworthy example is the great white throne of judgement seen in the book of Revelation (20:11-15). Did you know that Jesus will be there ...read more

    Contributed by David Owens on Sep 4, 2023
     | 1,676 views

    As Jesus continued to privately teach His disciples in Mark chapter 9, we see that He focused on teaching them about pride and prejudice. It was important for them and for us to learn about humility and tolerance.

    Introduction: A. In last week’s sermon, we started a section in the Gospel of Mark where Jesus was privately teaching His disciples some very important lessons on discipleship. 1. The two lessons we explored last week had to do with prayer and the passion of Jesus. 2. In today’s sermon, we will ...read more

    Failure is a common experience and with God's help we can keep failure from being final. Jesus left a great example of how to handle failure when He was rejected in His own hometown.

    Introduction: A. How many of you have ever failed at something? We all have experienced failure, right? 1. Bob Hope, when asked about his early failures in stand-up comedy, said, “I would not have had anything to eat if it wasn’t for the stuff the audience threw at me.” 2.

    The only countries that do not allow divorce are the Philippines and the Vatican City. The Vatican City is a state ruled by the head of the Catholic Church, a religion that does not allow for divorce.
