    Provoking Thoughts From 1 John (10 Of 16)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 10, 2022
     | 1,551 views

    In this passage of scripture, John deals with something we want to look at very closely and consider in this message.

    He deals with the topic of how we are supposed to love one another. Of course much of the Bible deals with this subject, yet it seems to be something we Christians know very little about and those who are not Christians know even less. As we look at our text we want to learn from what it says to ...read more

    March 12, 2022 We have spent the last year going through the entire Bible, Genesis to Revelation, but before moving on to our next series, it was suggested to me that I do an umbrella type sermon to wrap up our “My Favorite Thing About” journey, so, now I have to put on my nuclear-powered ...read more

    "living In Reality"

    Contributed by Ken Sauer on Mar 16, 2022
     | 2,414 views

    A sermon about what it means to deny self and live for God and others.

    “Living in Reality” Mark 8:34-38 I want us to think about the following questions this morning: 1. What gives you the greatest joy in life? 2. What creates for you the deepest sense of purpose? 3. When do you feel most alive, most true to the person God created you to be? My guess is that ...read more

    A large or small trouble is like a pebble. Hold it close to your eye, and it fills the whole world and puts everything out of focus. Hold it at proper viewing distance...

    How To Trouble, Trouble. Job 1:1-3NLT A large or small trouble is like a pebble. Hold it close to your eye, and it fills the whole world and puts everything out of focus. Hold it at proper viewing distance, and it can be examined and properly classified. Throw it ...read more

    What If There Was No Resurrection? Series

    Contributed by Doug Fannon on Mar 21, 2022
     | 5,289 views

    The second sermon on this series from 1 Corinthians 15. all Scripture references are from the NASB.

    Our hope as true Christians and believers in Jesus Christ lie is fact of Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection. Without any one of these three things, our faith would be futile and worthless. “Can you be Christian and not believe in the resurrection?” shouts the headline in the Salt Lake Tribune ...read more

    Feeling Small, Walking Tall Series

    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,442 views

    Small congregations might feel ineffective at reaching people, but big things come in small packages. Both the parable of "the mustard seed" and "the yeast" show how small, seemingly insignificant things can make a huge impact.

    The passage of Scripture that we will view tonight contains two short parables – “The Mustard Seed” and “The Yeast.” I have entitled our sermon “Feeling Small, Walking Tall,” and the passage that we’ll be studying provides a great opportunity for sharing a motivational message. You are probably ...read more

    The Pastor And His Job

     | 3,384 views

    Many ministers have entered the ministry because it seemed as if it would be an easy job

    After they got into the ministry, they soon found out that things are not as easy as they look, and they left the ministry and found themselves a job where they could make more money and have less headaches. Illus: After George W. Bush won the presidency in 2004, he immediately took on a campaign ...read more

     | 1,019 views

    In the previous sermon, the Chief priests, lay leaders, and the Sadducees came to the Lord with some questions.

    They did not come wanting to know what the scriptures taught, they came using the scriptures as a means of trying to trap the Lord Jesus. But the Lord said to them in verse 24, “…Do you not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?” A lot of folks think they ...read more

    He That Winneth Souls Is Wise No. 13

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 31, 2022
     | 2,402 views

    A concept in soul winning that you hear very little about that enables Christians to be successful soul winners involves their becoming like the Master Soul Winner - Jesus Christ!

    Everything about His marvelous life teaches us about soul winning. Illus: For example, when Jesus wanted to let the world know that He loved them, He did not yell from Heaven, "I love all of you! Come to Me, and I will save you" Now He could have done that, but He didn't. Notice ...read more

    We’re looking at God's purposes for troubles that come to Christians, how God is our Refuge & Strength, and see how He is a present help in our time of need.

    GOD IS A PRESENT HELP Ps. 46:1 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: The Highest Power 1. One Sunday morning, Victor, a Sunday school class teacher said to his young pupils, "OK children. We've been learning this morning just how powerful were the Kings and Queens in Bible times. 2. But there is ...read more

    Most people aren’t happy when they’re put in jail, but the Apostle Paul had a thankful heart, even when things went the wrong way. He wrote this letter from prison in Rome!

    PAUL’S JAILHOUSE THANKSGIVING Phip. 4:6 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: True Thanksgiving Disasters 1.

    How Can We Be Grateful In All Circumstances?

    Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Nov 22, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,940 views

    Giving thanks in all circumstances, which means we give thanks when we are sick, facing severe family problems, and experiencing enormous life difficulties, is certainly not easy! But that is what the apostle Paul commanded us to do. Is it possible? How can we do that?

    Illus.: A father in Phoenix calls his son in New York the day before Thanksgiving and says, "I hate to ruin your day, but I have to tell you that your mother and I are divorcing; forty years of misery is enough. "Dad, what are you talking about?" the son screams. We can't live ...read more

    Christmas Hope

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Nov 28, 2023
     | 4,819 views

    If we don’t allow the hustle and bustle of the world’s hectic race to find the perfect gift, and if we step back and look at the real reason we celebrate, our hearts are happier. We smile more. Hopefully we get a little bit closer to those we love, not always, but we can hope for that.

    Can you believe it? It seems like yesterday that we were in the advent season. For those that may not know what Advent is, Advent is the 4 Sundays after Thanksgiving that lead up to Christmas day. This year there are actually 5 Sundays between Thanksgiving and Christmas Day. So, our Advent ...read more
