    An Exposition Of 1 Peter, Part 4: The Prophets Said It Would Be Like This

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Oct 27, 2021
     | 1,621 views

    this is the fourth study in 1 Peter. We need to understand the importance of Scripture and the power of the Holy Spirit to the life of the Church.

    The Prophets Said it Would be Like This: 1 Peter 1:10-12 Introduction The idea for the title of this section comes from a Chattanooga weatherman who predicted correctly a big snowstorm in March 13, 1993. It was the only snow of the season in an area that barely averages 4 inches of snow a year. ...read more

    A Word Concerning Divorce (Part 1) Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Oct 27, 2021
     | 2,413 views

    What does Scripture teach about divorce? Does God encourage divorce? Is divorce permissible for any reason? Jesus reveals much regarding these significant questions.

    A Word Concerning Divorce (Part 1) Matthew 5: 31-32 As we approach our text, I am reminded of the words of Dr. Alan Carr. “When you preach through books of the Bible one of the great blessings is that, sooner or later, you will preach on every subject imaginable. But, one of the disadvantages is ...read more

    A Greeting Of Grace

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Sep 26, 2021
     | 1,766 views

    The major theme of Ephesians is Reconciliation achieved through God’s Redemptive plan. Relying on one’s prior accomplishments would not provide reconciliation or redemption. Paul knew Ephesus was a clear representation of the dreadful condition of sinful humanity.

    A Greeting of Grace Ephesians 1: 1-2 Today I want to begin a series of messages that will lead us through the first chapter of Paul’s epistle to the Ephesian church. While the letter to the Roman believers is considered Paul’s “magnum opus,” Ephesians has been referred to as the “Queen of the ...read more

    1 Kings 19:8-13 And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the strength of that meat forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of God.

    Rejecting Reluctance Series

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Oct 1, 2021
     | 2,563 views

    What a great truth that is, but it is countered with another truth: Many people are reluctant to give their life to Christ.  Our text today tells us about the reluctance of Moses - a great leader who had to overcome some struggles to answer the call of God!

    REJECTING RELUCTANCE  Exodus 3:1-15; 4:10-17 Introduction This is How We Overcome - stories from the Old Testament that demonstrate how people of faith overcame the barriers in their lives and gained victory through faith! 1 John 5:4 “...For everyone born of God overcomes the ...read more

    Moses objects because he believes that the people would not ACCEPT his word unless he showed them some sign. God gives him the power to work miracles.

    Ex 4:1-5. Moses's rod is turned into a serpent. Ex 4:6-9. His hand is leprous. Ex 4:10-12. He is loath to be sent. Ex 4:13-17. Aaron is appointed to assist him. Ex 4:18-20. Moses departs from Jethro. Ex 4:21-23. God's message to Pharaoh. Ex 4:24-26. Zipporah circumcises her son. Ex ...read more

    After learning about factors that can cause anger and types of anger, today, we will learn how to handle our anger rightly. Some people manage their anger wrongly by denying it or suppressing it, or expressing it unwisely.

    After learning about factors that can cause anger and types of anger, today, we will learn how to handle our anger. People dealt with their anger in many ways.

     | 5,388 views

    From the pursuit of education, career, spouses, children, possessions, and all, we all aspired to enter a life experience in which we live happily ever after! That is the aspiration upon which this great republic was formed. The Psamist shows the way!

    Sermon - Pathway to the Blessed Life Psalm 1 “Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers. 2 But they delight in the law of the Lord, meditating on it day and night. 3 They are like trees planted along the riverbank, ...read more

    The Armor Of God Part 1 - Truth Series

    Contributed by Doug Fannon on Sep 8, 2020
     | 4,946 views

    We are told to wear the WHOLE armor of god. Not just the piece we like. The first piece of armor is the "Belt of Truth." Note: all scripture is from the NASB95.

    This is a command, not a suggestion. It is clear, we are to put on the full armor, not just select pieces of the armor, but the whole armor. This is where Christians get into trouble. We only want to do what is easy and do only what come natural. But the Word of God is clear. We are to put on ...read more

    Spiritual vacuum. Hunger for God. Seeking God in solitary places. Waiting on the Lord. Stillness. 3 types of silence. "Look unto Me and be saved." Fixing our eyes on Him. Admitting weakness, embracing Omnipotence.

    “I WILL LIFT MY EYES UNTO THE HILLS…” Ps. 121:1-2 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Dick Van Dyke once described Mahatma Gandhi. 2.

    Two lessons appear within letters to the Churches of Revelation (Asia Minor) to teach us valuable truths to strengthen our faith and resolve to holiness.

    THE BOOK OF REVELATION CONTAINS AN UNMISTAKABLE AND CLEAR MESSAGE TO EACH OF THE SEVEN CHURCHES. THE LETTERS CONTAIN A MIXTURE OF CRITIQUE, COMMENDATION, CRITICISM, EXHORTATION, AND CALLS TO REPENT AND CHANGE. WHETHER IT WAS PRAISE OR REBUKE, ALL THE CHURCHES HEARD THE CHALLENGE TO “LISTEN TO WHAT ...read more

    While we lie down in the green pasture of the 23rd Psalm, the Good Shepherd may not seem to notice us — we are safe; but when the sheep are among the wolves of Matthew 10:16, the Good Shepherd will run to their help — they are in danger.

    “[God] raised [Christ] from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places… . He put all things under His feet and gave Him as head over all things to the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.” - Ephesians 1:20–23 In Mark 16:19 after Jesus spoke to ...read more

    The heart of worship is not an event, it is a relationship with God. At the heart of worship God can change our lives.

    The heart of Worship Revelation chapter 4:8-10 Introduction- As we go to God’s Word this morning, I have been praying that God would get a hold of our hearts.
