    July 4th sermon, talking about how our nation WAS founded under the precepts of Christ, and how the only way we can help it get back there, is to go to Christ first as individuals. Reworked from a Jerry Shirley sermon.

    My dad was a retired Air Force serviceman. He was also a retired Federal Civil Service employee. My dad became disabled from defending this land for you and for me.

    Many "hope" they will be saved, but don’t have the assurance God wants them to have because they don’t have the right attitudes.

    Let’s start today’s message by talking about confidence. When I was in the Navy, I was a flight weather forecaster, and I gave weather briefings to pilots all the time. If you have ever been around a bunch of military pilots before, you are very aware of what ultra-confident folks they are. I ...read more

    I was raised in a small town in southern Ohio. I remember the lazy days of summer when the air-raid sirens went off once per week and we would all look up to see if we could see enemy planes, or when all the boys would gather on the school playground to play baseball like the big kids did. I ...read more

    Three things Christians cannot be - using various Scriptures and illustrations.

    You have heard me say on many occasions that there is a difference between churchgoers and true bonafide Christians. The difference is not in how often they attend church or even how involved they get within the church. The difference is where their hearts are. The bonafide Christian’s heart ...read more

    The Israelites were kept as slaves in Egypt for over 400 years. Their oppressors mistreated them and there is no doubt they suffered mentally and spiritually, as well as physically. Those generations of Israelites must have felt a hurt that would have be unimaginable to us today. The Bible ...read more

     | 8,546 views

    A 4-point sermon explaining how and why we need to apply this short prayer to our lives, both as Christians and as the body of Christ.

    Everybody wants to know what purpose they have. Does God really have a plan for each one of us? The Bible says God knew us even before we were born and that He has a unique and distinct plan for each one of us. JEREMIAH 29:11 says, ‘I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. Plans to ...read more

    The 4 elements (strands) that make up the chord that gives us revival within our churches and in our hearts are - Giving - Prayer - Fasting- Communion

    I am going to dedicate 2006 to doing everything I can do to allow revival in this church and within the church body. It won’t be any old revival, either. It will be a revival for our Lord, Jesus Christ, and it will reach out into our community to do things this church has never seen before! But ...read more

    The 2nd in a series of building revival. This concerns importance of persistent prayer - in a life and in a church.

    Thank you, Lesley, for addressing us on such an important and Godly topic as prayer. And I thank you for being open enough to the Lord to have Him lay this upon your heart, and then your loving Him enough to act upon it. Last week, I talked about our need to focus on church growth through revival ...read more

    Have you ever noticed how high on the list of priorities we put food? Some think that baseball is America’s favorite pastime, but I personally think it is eating.

    based on 68 ratings
     | 9,625 views

    A sermon dealing with pride. Examples of pride, pitfalls of pride and how to overcome pride.

    There is an old saying: ‘Second place is okay if you don’t mind being first in a long line of losers.’ Nobody wants to be in 2nd place, do they? We all want to be in first place. We all want to be the winner, no matter what it is we have won at. In June 1974, Richard Nixon’s administration ...read more

    Revival In The Holy Spirit

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Feb 4, 2006
    based on 39 ratings
     | 5,875 views

    When we purposely do not grieve the Holy Spirit, we are acting within the confines of a disciple, and we shall find revival in our souls. EPH. 4:30

    I want to share one verse with you tonight. It is a short verse, but I think it might be among the most important verses found in the New Testament. EPHESIANS 4:30 – ‘And don’t grieve God’s Holy Spirit, who sealed you for the day of redemption.’ We are told in the Word of God not to ...read more

    based on 30 ratings
     | 4,546 views

    A sermon that talks about who is and who is not a child of God.

    Love is a word that is bandied about to describe our feelings towards everything. We love our cars. We love our homes. We love our this and we love our that. The problem is that we use it freely to describe “things” and “places” but when talking about other people, we often use negative ...read more
