Building Relationships

Contributed by Tim Smith on Sep 29, 2013

In our Scriptures today, we see two encounters, which lead to making disciples. This encounter and Jesus’ ministry to such folks teaches us that lost people matter to God. All of us are surrounded by people far from God

Building Relationships Luke 15:1-10 and Acts 8:26-40 In our Scriptures today, we see two encounters, which lead to making disciples. The first is when Jesus has a group of tax collectors and sinners who have gathered to hear him talk. Tax collectors were some of the most hated people in ...read more

Are You Worshiping Nature Or The Creator?

Contributed by John Hickman on Oct 22, 2013

Is our culture today worshiping "Mother Nature" instead of the Creator? Jesus went out into God's Creation to hear from God, to pray, to be refreshed and recharged for ministry. Shouldn't we be doing the same?

One hundred years before the birth of Jesus a Roman Philosopher, Cicero, wrote, “Nature herself makes the wise man rich.” The poet Ralph Waldo Emerson said that “Nature never hurries. Atom by atom, little by little she achieves her work.” Antoinette Brown Blackwell wrote ...read more

The Community Of Hope

Contributed by Doug Knox on Dec 16, 2014

Do the departed saints remember us, or are they only enraptured with Christ? The way we answer that question will determine what kind of connection we will have with them. Two truths in this passage give us a call for hope.

About eight months after first wife Marie died I was engaged in one of the final service calls that I would conduct before I passed my locksmith business to my son-in-law. My customer was a ninety-two-year-old lady. She had a well used Bible on the table, and I asked her if she was a Christian. ...read more

Guilty But Pardoned

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 6, 2021

Jesus was our Savior on the cross, but He was also our Judge, and He pardoned us for all of our unknown sins of omission that we can never confess. His forgiveness was universal and comprehensive.

If God did not pardon the guilty there would be no Gospel, for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. Even so, we feel there is a danger in being too merciful. Abraham Lincoln was accused of this during the Civil War when he seemed willing to pardon just about anyone. He would ...read more

Is It A Sin To Gossip Or Slander A Person?

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Feb 18, 2019

While most Christians believe it is a sin to slander another person when it comes to gossip some Christians are not certain. What is wrong with exchanging "information" about another?

Providing Comfort During Trials

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 13, 2021

How do we respond to those who are enduring hardships? Do we dish out criticism and judgment, or do we show genuine compassion? The experience from our own trials can help us better minister to those in trouble and anguish.

Samuel Chadwick said, “Compassion costs. It is easy enough to argue, criticize and condemn; but redemption is costly, and comfort draws from the deep. Brains can argue, but it takes heart to comfort.”(1) How do we respond to those who are enduring hardship? Do we dish out criticism and ...read more

Two Blessings

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Jun 12, 2021

The following sermon is going to review both of these blessings not so that they can become a “catchy, Christianese cliché” at the end of one of one’s prayer, but so that one might understand how important it is to ask and receive from God a blessing for His people!

The Meaning Of Baptism Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jun 23, 2021

For many people, baptism is shrouded in such great mystery that they fear giving their heart and life to Christ because they don’t want to go through being baptized. This message seeks to clear up some misconceptions.

Allow me to begin with a cute illustration. “The six-year-old grandson of Ruth Kirby told his mother that he had been baptized. Well, mom knew he hadn’t been formally baptized, so she probed a little further into the matter. She asked him to explain what he meant by ‘baptized.’ Little Blake ...read more

Joseph: An Example Of Salvation Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jul 17, 2021

Joseph, serving as Jesus’ earthly father figure, was an exemplary father. He was not only an excellent role model for his son, but within Joseph lies a certain character trait, which just happens to be Jesus’ strongest attribute.

The Christian singer Michael Card wrote a piece entitled Joseph’s Song. To begin this morning, I am going to read a few lines from this song. Listen closely, and from what you know about Joseph from the Bible, think about whether these words could have come from Joseph’s own heart: Lord I know ...read more
