    Bethel: Where Jacob Met The Lord

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Aug 16, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,060 views

    Jacob was Isaac's son and Abraham's grandson. He stopped at Bethel, for the night, but some interesting things happened while he was there.

    Bethel: where Jacob met the Lord Preface: When you think of Jacob, what comes to mind? Clearly, he was one of the most colorful people in the Bible! Sometimes we think he was a shady character, such as when he “bargained” with Esau for the birthright. I still think there’s a bit of humor in that ...read more

    Moses Tries It His Way: An Exposition Of Exodus 2:11-25

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Aug 21, 2020
     | 3,044 views

    We sing the hymn "Have Thine own Way" and all too often go out and do it our way.

    Moses Tries it His Way: An Exposition of Exodus 2:11-25 How many times do we feel that God has a special calling on our lives, and we get into a rush trying to fulfill it? When we became Christians, we received the Holy Spirit in our lives. God has a purpose for every one of us. He has distributed ...read more

    How Tim Zingale, forced out by his church because of his disability, became used by God in amazing ways. A sermon on Philippians 2.

    ............. “For it is God who is at work in you, enabling you both to will and to work for his good pressure” Phil 2:13 I’d like to talk to you about someone really special to me - though I have never met him. You know him too, though you don’t know you know him and you have never met him. His ...read more

    No one can do everything but everyone can do something.

    With all the resources available to us, why are people having such a hard time becoming mature disciples of Jesus? I’m convinced another recent survey (2014 Barna survey) provides the answer to that question. When people were asked what, if anything, helps them to grow in their faith, they ...read more

    When There Is Persecution Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on May 22, 2020
     | 4,227 views

    Persecution, and the emotions which come when we think about persecution, do not naturally cause us to feel blessed. Yet, when we stand firm in Jesus, we can hold on in strength to Jesus who is sovereign when we are persecuted.

    Jesus Is Still Sovereign Matthew 5:10-12 When There Is Persecution These past months of COVID-19 have initiated a whole range of conversations and topics – one of those topics has been persecution of Christians. A QB church this week noted with irony … and with a subtle reference to persecution … ...read more

    this is the only parable in which a person’s name is mentioned which some bible scholars believe was not an imaginary tale, but a true story!

    Full lives. Full social calendars. Full houses. But if we are honest, most of us are also full of famine! Why?

    Famine Pt. 3 - Refusing Rations I. Introduction I have challenged you to examine your own level of passion, pursuit and hunger for God. I told you that I believe we as a movement - Christianity - we are in the midst of a famine. However, I want to tell you that I believe the famine has come to ...read more

    Developing A Personal Walk With God

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Oct 22, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 23,584 views

    In Moses' frank conversation with God, we learn to pray for those who rebel against God, hunger for the presence of God, long for more of God, and shine with the light of God. As we seek after God, God will reveal more of himself to us.

    Exodus 33:12-23 Developing a Personal Walk with God Today’s conversation between Moses and God is pretty gutsy. Moses seems very comfortable with God, even to challenge God: “You don’t go with us, we don’t go!” Moses is praying real prayers here, nothing held back. And what is even more amazing ...read more

    "What If No One Told The Story?"

     | 4,300 views

    There is a danger that we have become so familiar with the story of Jesus that we begin to think everyone is.

    What if no one told the Story? Luke 2:8-20 Surveys are done on just about every subject now. One was taken with church members asking then which character in the Christmas story they most identified with. Mary? Joseph? The shepherds? The wise men? Most people who answered the question said ...read more

    No Stumbling Blocks

    Contributed by Vic Folkert on Sep 16, 2021
     | 4,733 views

    Why do people disconnect from Christ and the church? We must not cause "these little ones" to stumble.

    NO STUMBLING BLOCKS—Mark 9:38-50 This morning, we face a troubling reality: Many Americans are moving away from Christ and the church. Some are high-profile influencers, who might say they are “done” with church, or “deconstructing” their faith. Others are ordinary people—maybe people we know—who ...read more

    Getting The Sabbath Right Series

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Jan 29, 2021
     | 3,116 views

    Practicing the Sabbath religiously is still something that is common in certain faith families, but I think mostly we ignore the idea. Getting the Sabbath right is essential for our mental, spiritual, and physical well being.

    Getting the Sabbath Right     Luke 6:1-11 Introduction As a young Christian I was taught that all of the Ten Commands had been repeated and taught by Jesus - except one. Keeping the Sabbath day holy. When I preached out in the country during my Bible college days I ...read more

    The Covenant Origin Of Our Inheritance Series

    Contributed by K. Edward Skidmore on Dec 9, 2014
     | 6,567 views

    Sermon #2 deals with the origin of our inheritance based on the covenant promises of God, especially the covenant with Abraham to which we are heirs. We are under a new covenant ratified by Christ's death, and under a new law.

    Inheritance Sermon #2: The Covenant Origin of our Inheritance Key Scripture: Hebrews 9:15-17: “For this reason Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance—now that he has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins ...read more

    “an Anointing, Another Plot, And A Parade” Series

    Contributed by Ron Tuit on Feb 8, 2016
     | 6,717 views

    With Jesus' death only days away, Mary gives an extravagant gift in gratitude and thanksgiving while the leaders continue to plot Jesus' death and the Passover crowds throw a parade in Jesus' honor.

    1 24 2016 “An Anointing, Another Plot, and a Parade” John 12: 1-19 In our last study we saw the Plot of the Pompous High Priest Caiaphas as well as his unknowing but true prophecy in John 11:49-50: "You know nothing at all, nor do you consider that it is expedient for us that one man ...read more

    Go Thy Way-Jesus And The Rich Young Ruler Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Mar 6, 2020
     | 3,222 views

    He had all the "right stuff", humanly speaking, but he knew something was wrong. He ran to Jesus, listened to Jesus, but walked away. "Go thy way" wasn't something he wanted to do.

    Based on a message preached at First Baptist Church, Glasgow, MO, 2014 This is not an exact transcription Background: When an event in Scripture is recorded once, it’s clearly important. This event was mentioned in three of the four Gospels! This event took place shortly before the Lord Jesus ...read more
