    Love sometimes includes pain, but if it is God’s love, it comes from the sincere good intentions of the heart and the effect is good fruit & healing! But sometimes as humans we fail and to do all things “ in love”.

    Do Everything in Love: Despite the pain! Kelly Durant 2-21-10 1 Cor 16:14 14 Do everything in love. Not often do I preach with a verse that has only 4 words, but actually this verse says it all? Recall we are continuing with what does love imply that we do? God does everything in ...read more

    Our focus this morning will deal much with communication. Specifically, we will examine how to effectively communicate the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I pray we will understand the bottom line of evangelizing is to simply communicate and invite others into our story

    TITLE: WEAVING EVANGELISM INTO DISCIPLESHIP SCRIPTURE: ACTS 4:23-37 After preaching the fourth installment last week in our ‘Shifting of our Vision’ here at ‘First Church’ which is tied to our Campaign of “LET’S GO FISHING,” I found myself praying and said to the Lord, after four sermons, I ...read more

    The Church Of Sardis: A Fellowship Taken Off Life Support (Revelation 3:1-6)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 1, 2024
     | 1,128 views

    The church at Sardis received not words of commendation from the Lord Jesus Christ, but instead, rebuke and condemnation as well a warning to wake up and strengthen what remains of its effectiveness, testimony, and purpose. Does this describe the church you attend?

    The fifth church mentioned in Revelation 2-3 was located in the city of Sardis, fifty miles east of Smyrna and thirty miles southeast of Thyatira. Like the other churches, it was located in western Asia Minor, now known as the nation of Turkey. Sardis was on the major commercial and trade ...read more

     | 5,094 views

    In today’s sermon we are going to look at each of these components of Paul’s prayer for the Colossians not with the intent of “babbling” it mechanically but to use it as a model of how one can effectively intercede for our loved ones before a holy God!

    How to Pray for Others Colossians 1:9-14 Online Sermon: http://www.mckeesfamily.com/?page_id=3567 When boldly approaching God’s throne of grace ever wonder how one should pray for others? Coming “face to face” with an all-powerful and all-knowing God the last thing one wants to do ...read more

    Confronting Mammon

    Contributed by Robert Grey on Nov 4, 2002
    based on 19 ratings
     | 7,343 views

    Mammon is a very powerful force in the world today that ties people into a financial system that prevents the people of God from effectively preaching the Gospel. The story of how Abraham tithed after rescuing Lot gives some important principles.

    Background. Abraham had two brothers, Nahor and Haran. They and their father Terah lived in Ur of the Chaldees. This city, famous for the worship of the Moon God, was located on the banks of the Euphrates near the Persian Gulf, just before the Tigris River enters into it. In Ur, the Stela of ...read more

    Purpose: We humans always look for a cause-and-effect. No surprise, because we are taught the "scientific method" in all of our schooling. But with God and His ways, things are different. The Lord arranges events that He might be glorified.

    To be a successful Christian we must allow the Grace of God to run its course in our inner life. When that happens then we can become an effective believer in our outer life- in how we represent the Lord to others.

    Grabbed By Grace II Samuel 9 Can you recall an event in your life that clearly demonstrated the incredible life changing Grace of God?

    The Laser Light Of The Gospel Series

     | 3,133 views

    The New Covenant Gospel is not a competitor with God’s plans for Israel, but there is a difference between the Old and New Covenants: The Israelites became part of the Old by birth, we become part of the New Covenant only by second birth.

    The Laser Light of the Gospel (Romans 3:1-20) 1. Laser lights are useful as pointers. I have one, but only rarely use it. 2. They are not toys. [https://phys.org/newsstory below:] 3.
