    A Starter Or A Finisher

    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Jan 22, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 18,322 views

    This message is based on Philippians 3:13 where Paul describes someone running in a race and actually finishing it. The idea coming from this message is that we are all running in a sprint individually that we must complete in order to run in the relay.

    A Starter Or A Finisher Scriptures: Genesis 19:17,24-26; Philippians 3:13; Matthew 24:5-13 Two weeks ago, before the ice storm last week, I told you that I was pressing on. I was pressing on regardless of my past failures and missed opportunities. I told you that once Jesus laid a hold on me I ...read more

    The Challenge Through Discipleship Series

     | 9,123 views

    Being a genuine disciple of Christ is a very tall order. We are to live in such a way that reflects His character and grace. How is that possible? We must pattern our lives after Christ. We are challenged to imitate the Lord we serve.

    The Challenge through Discipleship 2 Timothy 1: 12-14 As we consider discipleship, and our responsibility to follow Christ while investing in others, the Lord Himself stands as the great example. He was fully surrendered to the Father’s will and spent much of His time investing in the ...read more

     | 5,254 views

    Nations and individuals go through tests throughout life, and these tests are often given by the Lord Himself. In this sermon we look at this, and we discuss how we might learn the lessons required in order to "pass the test"

    Testing, Testing, 123 Text: Psalm 11:1-7 Once again; I want to thank you all for the privilege of sharing God’s Word with you this morning. I’m grateful for the opportunity. Let’s go ahead and open with a word of prayer. (PRAYER) I’m taking some graduate courses over at Northwestern right now, ...read more

    Today’s sermon is going to review the character, sphere and ground of our blessings in order to spur us on to not only praise and glorify His name with our lips but also through His power strive to become blameless in His sight!

    Chosen to Praise God Ephesians 1:3-6 Online Sermon: http://www.mckeesfamily.com/?page_id=3567 “Ascribe to the Lord the glory due His name; worship the Lord in the splendor of His holiness.” Psalms 29:2 Ever get so excited about what God has done in your life that all you want to do is ...read more

     | 1,372 views

    In this final sermon from the "Serving Like Jesus" sermon series, we review the important lessons from each of the sermons in order to try to put the whole series into practice, so that we can serve like Jesus.

    A. One day a professor, a preacher and a professional golfer went deer hunting together. 1. They were all novices, but wanted to try it. 2. They had been out all day and towards dusk they all spotted a 5 point buck at the same time. 3. They each took aim and all three fired a shot at the moving ...read more

    Are You Dancing To Their Tune?

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Apr 30, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,105 views

    Many people want you to dance to their tune, to order your life according to their convictions and demands. Some of them are in the church. But the freedom that we have in Christ releases us from being slaves to the opinions of others, and even requires it.

    This morning, I’d like us to consider a passage of Scripture in which Jesus makes an astute observation about the social and religious culture of his day. It’s a fairly brief remark, but one that is full of significance for us today, because it gives us a perspective on how to react to criticism ...read more

    The Book Of Lamentations – Part 2 – Description Of Emptiness – Chapter 1:4-6 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Feb 19, 2025
     | 325 views

    Jeremiah is faced with the scene of destruction all around and he describes different events and how they affected people and material things. When people turn from God, the inevitable must happen, and that is God’s judgement upon the existing order.

    THE BOOK OF LAMENTATIONS – PART 2 – DESCRIPTION OF EMPTINESS – CHAPTER 1:4-6 Lamentations is a little studied book but we wish to open it up and see some great gems here. There are very valuable lessons and principles among the sorrow. PART [A]. ROADS AND GATES; PRIESTS AND VIRGINS ARE IN ...read more

    He’s Still God!

     | 1,257 views

    GOD IS STILL GOD! Despite all the arguments of atheists, all the denials of some scientists, the opposition of governments, and the mocking of the “learned,” God is still God. He overthrows nations and sets up gov’ts who will uphold His order.

    HE’S STILL GOD! Mic. 7:18 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Better Offer 1. At a wedding rehearsal, the groom said to the minister "I'll make a deal with you. If during the vows you'll leave out all of that love, honor and obey stuff, I'll give you a hundred dollars. "He slipped a ...read more

    Understanding Lawlessness: A Biblical Perspective

    Contributed by Thomas Andrufski on Oct 4, 2025
     | 168 views

    This is an insert to my book, "The Narrow Road" on Amazon.The sermon discusses how lawlessness, defined as the rejection of biblical authority and moral order, is increasingly evident in society and even within churches, leading to confusion and chaos.

    Understanding Lawlessness: A Biblical Perspective In 1 John 3:4, we read, "Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law." Sin, at its core, is lawlessness. It is not merely the absence of law but rebellion against the moral order established ...read more

    One of the reasons we can win the spiritual battle and get through the storms of life, is the fact that we have a Savior in heaven who is praying for us.

    A. Over the years, I have enjoyed reading Readers’ Digest and especially the humor sections. 1. One of the humor sections is called “All in a Day’s Work” where people write in humorous things that happen at work. 2. Here’s a good one someone submitted: Confiding in a co-worker, I told her about a ...read more

    If you want to create an atmosphere of faith for your children and grandchildren, trust God enough to give your children to the Lord and bless them with His promise for their future.

    Years ago, most families with homes in the country used an outhouse. A boy in one family hated it, because the outhouse was hot in the summer, cold in the winter, and it stunk all the time. The outhouse sat on the bank of a creek, and the boy determined that one day he would push that outhouse ...read more

    Let It Go Series

    Contributed by Duane Wente on Nov 15, 2021
     | 7,680 views

    Some people get depressed when they see the trees losing their leaves in autumn. Some even say that the trees look sad. Autumn though shows us how beautiful it is to let things go. We need to consider what, in our lives, we need to drop in order to heal our souls, move forward in our lives and grow.

    source: http://www.jokes4us.com/miscellaneousjokes/weatherjokes/falljokes.html Why does Humpty Dumpty love autumn? Because he had a great fall! Why are trees very forgiving? Because in fall they “let it go” and in the spring, they “turn over a new leaf.” Fall is a time of transition. There are ...read more

    Pride by far is one of the most deadly sins. Pride acts as the gateway to just about every other sin, and Pride acts as a barrier between you and God, and your will and God’s will.

    There were these 2 ducks and a frog that lived together in a pond on a farm. They were the best of friends. You could sit there and watch them all day as they would play together in that pond. However they began to have a drought like we have had and the pond was drying up and they knew that ...read more

    On the most chaotic, stress-filled day of His life, Jesus modeled calm and stayed in control. Here are four things we can learn from Jesus about keeping calm.

    A few years ago, I started noticing this poster everywhere: Keep Calm and Carry On. It was on social media. T-Shirts. Coffee mugs. And it wasn’t long after that that you started seeing all the variations to it: [advance each one] • Keep calm and wash your hands (that one has just been in the ...read more
