  • Thanksgiving Grace

    Contributed by Dennis Lee on Nov 28, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,149 views

    This Sunday we’ll be looking at how we are to “Say Grace.” While we look at the giving of blessings for the food that we eat, saying grace is so much more, which in turn should literally change the way we thank God for what He has so graciously given.

    Thanksgiving Grace Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RduI0CrSBJA As I approached today’s message, I really didn’t know what the Lord wanted me to talk about. Thanksgiving is over, but the holiday and what it stands for I just couldn’t get off my mind. And then, I was inundated in my time ...read more

  • He That Winneth Souls Is Wise No. 3

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 31, 2022
     | 936 views

    An article in The Reader's Digest stated that a man who had throat cancer was cured by his doctor's treating him with strong doses of vitamin C.

    This was interesting because the man only received help when he received the strong dosages. In these sermons on soul winning we hope you are getting a "strong dosage" effect. It is the prayer of this pastor that by giving these "strong dosages" week after week that many of ...read more

    Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on Sep 23, 2025
     | 83 views

    There are moments in the Christian life when we stop listening to God and start listening to ourselves. Sometimes that inner voice is not a voice of faith but of fear. We call it “being realistic” or “practical,” but often it’s just fear baptizing itself as wisdom.

  • Are You Related To Jesus?

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on May 12, 2024
     | 811 views

    The words that Jesus spoke as recorded in our text for today sound quite strange and may be strange for a Mother's Day sermon. Somehow it seems out of character for Jesus to say what He did. But He had a purpose.

    Alba 5-12-2024 ARE YOU REATED TO JESUS? Mark 3:31-35 Mother’s Day is a special time for us to honor mothers. That is a good thing to do. And hopefully, we honor them all year long, not just on this holiday. Sadly, many of us do not realize how good our mother was until she has passed on and ...read more

     | 78 views

    Someone said, "An optimist stays up until midnight to see the New Year in, and a pessimist stays up until midnight to make sure the old year leaves."

    How to Know You Are Worshiping the Saviour On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him.

  • How Can I Be A Better Person?

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 9, 2021
     | 4,723 views

    You must walk by faith and NOT talk by faith. You demonstrate faith not by what you say but by what you do. Faith shows up in your feet, not just in your feelings.

    Like you, I have made so many attempts at improving in areas of my life. I struggle with patience with certain people – someone put a hand over my family’s mouths at this point. If I know anything about anything, I imagine you have your struggles as well. The Bible offers you some weapons of how ...read more

    This message focuses on the wise men and the gifts they presented to the newborn Savior. In viewing the symbolism of the gifts, we can learn more about the great plan of our Lord to save His people from their sins.

For behold the darkness shall cover the earth, and deep darkness the people; but the Lord will arise over you, and ...read more

     | 43 views

    God’s strength never fails; when we are weary, He renews us, teaching us to hope, trust, and find fresh power in His presence.

    Some of us walked in today with a brave face and a tired heart. Bills and busyness have been barking at your heels. Sleep has been thin. Relationships feel fragile. The headlines howl. And somewhere deep inside, a whisper rises: “I’m worn down.” If that’s you, friend, you are in good company. The ...read more

    The good news is that we don’t have to be paralyzed by regret, we don’t have to let it rob us of the joy and hope that God has promised us as our birthright in Christ

    Obadiah addressed his prophecy to the people of Edom because of what they wouldn’t do. What were those things?

    It was a tragedy; the city of God was attacked and destroyed. The holy things were profaned the sacred things were destroyed and the people were imprisoned. It shouldn’t have come as a surprise for over a hundred years the prophets had been warning the people that if they continued in their evil ...read more
