Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jan 31, 2011

The Falling Away Comes First

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Mar 18, 2024

The Thessalonians were looking forward to His coming. But something caused them to be “shaken in mind and troubled.” The assurance Paul gives to them gives assurance to us as well: the Lord has promised to return for His own, and we have not missed it. The falling away will come first.

Resting And Relaxing In God Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Aug 2, 2018

Physical rest and spiritual rest are essential for each and every one of us. God has given you the freedom to choose to rest, to be still, to know that God is God.

We continue in our series on Hope Found Here and it’s apt that this month we are going to be thinking about resting and relaxing in God. “Rest” is defined as “peace, ease or refreshment.” “Relax” means “to become loose or less firm, to have a milder manner, to be less stiff.” What does the Bible ...read more

Here Comes Trouble Again! # 2b

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 6, 2022

In the previous sermon, we established that one of the things that distinguishes us from each other is the way we conduct ourselves when troubles come our way.

When the good times come, we all respond basically the same way. For example, when someone asks us HOW WE ARE, all of us just give them a big smile and we say, “GREAT!” In the difficult times, we can see the difference in people. When the difficult times come and you ask them HOW THEY ARE. . . • ...read more
