    Subject: "how To Deal With Uncertainty And Change In Life"

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Mar 5, 2025
     | 1,080 views

    These handpicked disciples of Jesus found themselves off target and off task in amid uncertainty. It’s normal and natural to feel uncomfortable about not knowing what's next. See how they dealt with uncertainty.

    Subject: "How to Deal with Uncertainty and Change in Life" Scripture Text: John 21:1-11 “Later, Jesus appeared again to the disciples beside the Sea of Galilee. This is how it happened. Several of the disciples were there—Simon Peter, Thomas (nicknamed the Twin), Nathanael from Cana in ...read more

    Sermon – Finding Meaning And Hope In Overwhelming Circumstances

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Feb 2, 2026
     | 455 views

    Habakkuk, an Old Testament prophet, experienced a season of trials that seemed endless. He was desperate for relief, for change, for God to intervene. Does that sound like something you can relate to? A Journey to Hope!

    Sermon – Finding Meaning and Hope in Overwhelming Circumstances Scripture Lesson-Habakkuk 3:16-19 “I trembled inside when I heard this; my lips quivered with fear. My legs gave way beneath me, and I shook in terror. I will wait quietly for the coming day when disaster will strike the people who ...read more

    With Friends Like These, Who Needs Enemies? Series

    Contributed by David Dykes on Aug 5, 2010
    based on 5 ratings
     | 22,083 views

    How Job's friends show us both the wrong way and the right way to help a friend who is suffering.

    INTRODUCTION This is the fifth study in the teaching series from Job called “Turning Tears into Telescopes.” This message is entitled “With Friends Like These—Who Needs Enemies?” Since I grew up in Alabama, the birthplace of rednecks, I got a real chuckle out of the ...read more

    I Wander As I Wander

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 13, 2025
     | 293 views

    Wandering ends when we trust God more than our fears, letting His presence lead our hearts out of old circles and into promise.

    There’s a phrase that has been turning over in my heart—one you might recognize, though not quite in the form you learned it. We know the old carol, “I Wonder as I Wander.” But somewhere along the way, in the wilderness seasons of my own life, it became this: “I wander as I wander.” Not poetic. ...read more

    When You Don't Feel Worthy

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 3, 2025
     | 382 views

    God calls us by name, not by our failures. When our confidence ends, His grace begins, restoring identity, worth, and hope.

    There are some sermons that come out of study, and some that come out of history, and some that come out of doctrine… But every once in a while, a sermon comes out of the quiet places inside the soul. The places where you don’t speak out loud. The places you don’t even write down. The places where ...read more

    Present Joy

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Jun 30, 2002
    based on 65 ratings
     | 9,322 views

    We find joy, not in circumstances, but in knowing and trusting in the present promises of God.

    All of us desire to have joy in our lives. No matter what we call it – happiness, gladness, delight, good cheer – we would all like to experience more of it. As we are reminded on this Independence Day, the quest for joy is even enshrined in our Declaration of Independence as a God-given right: "We ...read more

    Fire Of Glory, Fire Of Drought

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Aug 8, 2003
    based on 31 ratings
     | 10,745 views

    We have experienced the warm glow of God’s blessings, but the fire of judgment is also at hand, for worship becomes ritual, there is a critical spirit, and pessimism spreads. Diligence and integrity bring vitality in worship.

    In all the annals of human history, there is one item which has held out more hope and yet offered more terror than any other. Wherever human beings gathered, in the infancy of our race, there this one item, this one element, both attracted them and repelled them; it drew them close and yet it ...read more

    Just Say No Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 24, 2003
    based on 15 ratings
     | 6,890 views

    Like Job’s friend Zophar, we eagerly find faults with others, thinking that pointing out their mistakes is all that is needed, and failing to build a relationship first. Contrast with Christ, who "became sin" for us.

    We are studying the very human issue of faultfinding during this Lenten season. We are using the story of Job and his friends, if you call them that, as they tried to console him, no, really, instruct him in his misery. Eliphaz, Bildad, and Zophar, three miserable comforters, Job said, because ...read more

    The Sandwich Generation Series

    based on 139 ratings
     | 5,446 views

    This message looks at the need for honouring our aging parents.

    A little bit of a change in direction here. Early in January we started this series on the Ten Commandments, and after the first four messages we are about to make an abrupt turn. The first four commandments dealt with our relationship with God. They were vertical commands, and now they have ...read more

    based on 121 ratings
     | 14,536 views

    The first of a study of Paul’s Trustworthy Sayings. This one helps us to gain a fuller understanding of God’s grace.

    INTRODUCTION. -- How many of you have ever bought something from a TV commercial? I’ve never been one to do this very much -- partly because I usually missed the type of commercials advertising products (getting a snack); and partly because the products were always too expensive. Then an ...read more

    3rd in 5 lessons prepared and delivered at InSight - Discovery Christian Church’s Believer’s Service.

    What Would God Say About Handling Injustice? 1 Peter 3:21-25 INTRODUCTION: Don’t you just hate it when you suffer unjustly? Maybe it’s something small like being shortchanged at a drive-through window, or told one price but then upon installation given another. Or may it’s more significant ...read more

    Christmas Message.. Unpredictable package!

    Your Un-Opened Gift (John 1:43-51 and Romans 6:23-24) A chauffeur had driven the chemistry professor to dozens of speaking engagements. He’d heard the same canned speech scores of times.

    This message takes a look at how we honour our parents at different points in our life.

    So let’s see, where are we? We started in January with Sex God’s Wedding Gift, then there was “Marriage What it is and What it Ain’t”, “Marriage keeping it all Together” and two messages on Parenting. Now it’s time to make a 180 percent turn and go from being parents to being children of parents. ...read more

    We all fail, but most of us struggle to come to grips with our failure - God’s Word provides instruction.

    Please Note: To the degree I may positively contribute at all is a reflection of the degree to which I have been open to and willing to learn from the Holy Spirit, in God’s Word and through other servants of His.

     | 8,163 views

    If God is about to create a new world, it needs to be one that realizes His promises of fulfillment, reconciliation, and peace. In the babe of Bethlehem those promises, though not yet complete, have come to be.

    When I was a boy, my brother and I slept in an upstairs bedroom, and always, on Christmas morning, the door at the bottom of the steps would be shut tight. Normally it was kept open, but on Christmas morning, not so. Things were happening on the other side of that door, things we were not to see ...read more
