When Church Becomes Business. Series

Contributed by Shaila Touchton on Apr 27, 2025

The question is: has the church sold its soul for success?

The Bible warns us about the dangers of loving money and materialism.

This scripture is ...read more

In a society where gender roles are evolving, it's disheartening to witness men taking advantage of women's financial struggles.

Authority Of The Servant King

Contributed by Billy Ricks on Apr 2, 2012

The Gospel of Mark presents Jesus as the Greatest Servant. This servant has the authority to forgive sin, free people of disease, force demon to flee. Most of us have some type of reistance to authority. Jesus made it clear the real and eternal life is

Intro: Illustration about “God is watching you.” My first thought was an old angry man in the sky pointing His finger at me saying look out I’m going to get you. My second thought was of the heavenly father I know. Jesus is the only one capable of watching over me, you, every ...read more

Exercising A Dynamic Faith Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Oct 27, 2015

We have been commanded to lead people out of darkness into God’s wonderful light. To proclaim the truth that Jesus is the light of the world. If we dress up as witches, demons, etc we are embracing darkness not living as “children of light"

Forgiven and brought from darkness to light The Bible teaches that we are forgiven when we repent and turn from our sins and become disciples of Jesus. When we trust in Jesus, and Jesus alone, we are set free from the punishment our sins deserve because of what Jesus did at Calvary. He died that ...read more

The Four Faces Of Obedience

Contributed by John Gaston on May 17, 2023

Christianity is not just a set of beliefs. James said the demons believe and tremble, but their belief doesn't save them, because they don't OBEY God. Our faith should cause us to walk, stand, live, and obey.

THE FOUR FACES OF OBEDIENCE Gen. 22:1-13 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. There are times when even doing what is right seems like it will backfire on you. Old habits are hard to break. 2.

Battle Ready: Know Your Enemy - Part One Series

Contributed by Martin Spoelstra on Mar 14, 2023

In order to be prepared for the attacks of the Devil and his demons, we must know more about him. Spiritual warfare has nothing to do with personality, gifting, calling or background. When you signed up to be a Christian, you automatically entered into warfare.

Me – Are we aware of the battle that goes on in the spiritual realm? In every world religion, there is an acknowledgement of a spiritual realm. In every minor religion, there is an acknowledgement of a spiritual realm. Even for those who don’t believe in God, many believe in the supernatural. If ...read more

Exercising And Exorcising

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 8, 2025

In this passage, we see two blind men who had to "exercise" their faith to receive their sight. However, we see another kind of exercise in this passage; or rather, “exorcise,” as Jesus exorcised a demon from a man who was mute.

You have probably heard someone say before that we need to “exercise” our faith. In Hebrews chapter 12, we read, “Let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith” (Hebrews 12:1b-2a). Jesus is both the author and finisher. He is ...read more

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 19, 2023

The enemy seems to freely roam through our country, the enemy's forces, the principalities, the powers, the demons, the unsaved humans who do their bidding seem to have free reign in the United States, but they're never safe

I'm always trying to understand our position in history. And it seems to me right now, our position in history is a moment that I remember from the Lord of the Rings, The Return of the King. The orcs are storming Osgiliath, they've crossed the river in the dark of night. And Faramir and ...read more

Fear - How To Overcome It?

Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Jun 9, 2024

How to live in an anxious world and yet have peace and joy in life? There are hundreds of reasons to be afraid. But only one reason not to be afraid that is our faith in God and our Lord Jesus Christ. There are two kinds of fear! One is Divine and the other is demonic!

Fear is a painful emotion or passion caused by an expectation of evil or suspicion of impending danger. Fear manifests itself in many ways. Some of the more serious ways include panic attacks, which are defined as “sudden, brief episodes of intense fear”, and phobias, which are defined as ...read more
