     | 2,285 views

    Every pastor hears excuses. But some of the excuses he hears are better than the others.

    Illus: One lady gave her excuse for why she does not attend church. She said, "I don't go to church, and this is my reason: • If I go some of the time, it makes me want to go all the time. • And since I can't go all the time, it makes me feel guilty when I miss some of the time. • ...read more

    This is a message on patience. James provides some valuable insight into why believers sometimes fail at being patient, and he explains how to stay the course even when difficult life circumstances seem to go by at a snail’s pace.

    If we are willing to be patient until the grace of God is made manifest, whether it takes nine years or ninety, it will be worth the wait. - Rebecca Pippert(1) This morning’s message will addresses the need to develop our staying power. As you might have guessed, this is a sermon on patience. ...read more

    This message looks at a teenager who was called by God. Jeremiah was like any other youth; no different than teenagers today. But the Lord was able to use him in an amazing way! God wants even those who are young to serve Him.

    I would like to begin our message with a short account concerning a great evangelist in recent church history. “Dwight L. Moody was once asked, ‘How many converts did you have last night?’ Moody answered, ‘Two and one half.’ The other person said, ‘Two adults and a child?’ ‘No,’ Moody replied. ...read more

     | 1,747 views

    Trouble comes to every life in some way and at some time with some consequences. When it dies it is important to know that God has not forsaken, nor forgotten you.

    There are three w’s to consider in trouble: 1. The “w” of when, James 1:1-5 2. The “w” of why a. Job had trouble, Job 14:1 1) Job testing shows our faith. 2) 1 Peter 1:6-7 b. Jesus 1) Jesus suffered or had trouble because he was godly. 2) 1 Peter 4:12-16 3) John 15:18-19 c. Jonah 1) Jonah had ...read more

    1. Many suffer physically. 2. Many suffer financially 3. Many suffer mentally. 4. Many suffer inwardly. There are three ways to gather material for a message. 1. To read about it. 2. To be told about it. 3. To experience it. The difference between happy Christians and unhappy ones is not the ...read more

    Doing Your Duty With A Little Faith

     | 2,970 views

    This is a lesson about using the gifts that God has already given us instead of wishing our lives away wanting what God has not ordained. It features the problem that the first disciples were having and Jesus' answer to them when they asked for more faith.

    Doing Your Duty with a Little Faith Luke 17: 5-10, 2 Timothy 1:3-12 The Apostles were with Jesus daily. They saw miracles that would make their hearts stand still and yet they wanted more faith. What more could Jesus possibly give them? The answer is, he doesn’t give them anything more. ...read more

    There are times we hear when someone is in prison for life but because of forensics they are released.

    The development of DNA testing and the ability to use the science of the body’s cells to solve crimes has made significant changes in the criminal justice field. Forensic is a wonderful thing, only God knows how many ennocent men who have died for something they did not do. But I want to show you ...read more

    What In Hell Do You Want?

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Apr 23, 2022
     | 4,225 views

    Eternity without God should lead us to shout, "There is nothing in hell that I want!" Yet, far too many of those living about us act as though there is something wonderful about hell. If that were not so, wouldn't we seek to please the Lord? There is nothing in hell that I want.

Last week we saw how Jesus wept at Lazarus’ grave, commanded the people to roll the stone away from the tomb, and then raised Lazarus from the dead. We talked about how it was a picture of how Jesus can take things that are dead and decaying in our ...read more
