    What The World Needs Now Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 31, 2021
     | 3,955 views

    What the World Needs Now "is love, sweet, love." But what does that kind of love look like, especially in the context of the great sin? Jesus provides us with a powerful lesson about the kind of love we need to receive and offer to others.

    Most of us here are familiar with that hit song written by Burt Bacharach, “What the World Needs Now.” And of course, as bad as I am with notes, I’m even worse with lyrics, but in this case, I do remember the next few words—“Is love, sweet, love.” And admittedly, the song strikes a chord with ...read more

    Singing In The Rain…

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 27, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,093 views

    I want to preach a sermon titled after a very popular song called, “Singing in the Rain.”

    The words of this song “Singing in The Rain…” come from a famous song sung by Donald O’ Conner. The idea of course is that we often plan things in life and then the rain comes along and spoils those plans. For example: • We are going to watch a parade, but the rain comes and spoils our ...read more

    Christian Ethics At A Glance Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Oct 4, 2021
     | 2,974 views

    Christians are supposed to stand out from others in their ethics, but sometimes we need both direction and permission to be different. Paul does this by means of several bullet points.

    Christian Ethics At-a-Glance (Romans 12:14-21) 1. The Law Professor specialized in teaching ethics: “You’re currently failing your ethics course,” he told me. So I slipped him a $200 in crisp bills across the table. “How about now?” I asked. The professor pocketed the money and said, “Still ...read more

     | 10,059 views

    God asks us to help build His ONE church - and how we measure things can make all the difference in how the local church turns out. What measuring stick does God want us to use in making the right measurements?

    (This sermon was preached at our annual “Unity” service, where we bring our English, Spanish, and Burmese churches together for one big worship service. On this occasion, we ordained one Hispanic man to the preaching ministry and another as an Elder for the Hispanic church). OPEN: Years ago I ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 9, 2025
     | 563 views

    What does it mean to bear the yoke in your youth? Patience in silence with no grumbling is what pleases God. What is it to have the mouth in the dust and we look at the expressions about bowing the knee to Jesus Christ.
