    Preaching From Philippians #2

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 31, 2022
     | 1,294 views

    One of the reasons that it is a sin for Christians to take drugs or drink alcoholic beverages is because these are substances that control our behavior.

    These are things that will ruin our lives and cause us to make fools out of ourselves. There is no way that a Christian can be controlled by the Holy Spirit if they are controlled by these substances. But these are not the only things that control Christians. For example, there are many ...read more

    Strong Enough To Serve

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 30, 2025
     | 98 views

    Jesus grants authority not for control but for compassion; strength flows through humility, and true greatness is found at the basin of service.

    There are few sights more moving than real authority wrapped in humility. It’s rare. We’re accustomed to power that postures, rank that separates, and leadership that needs to be noticed. Every now and then, we glimpse the beauty of someone who is both strong and gentle—someone who knows exactly ...read more

    Ambassador In Chains

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Nov 8, 2025
     | 65 views

    True strength isn’t power or control, but courage — the boldness to speak Christ’s truth even in chains.

    Good MORNING. Paul’s description of himself as an ambassador in chains led me to one of history’s most underrated stories, so let’s start there. It was a long time ago, the year 1219. Everyone was dirty back then. It was the middle of the 5th crusade, a great war between Europe and Islam, and a ...read more

    This sermon explores the inevitability of anxiety and trouble, emphasizing our choice in response and God's ultimate control and provision of healing.

    Hey there, family! So glad you could join us today. We're about to get into something that I reckon a lot of us have been wrestling with lately.

     | 4,457 views

    Responsible love with others includes that I learn to share the bed with only my wife, and no one else. Self-control applies also in the bedroom.

    Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed undefiled; but fornicators and adulterers God will judge. (Hebrews 13:4 NKJV) The word bed here is used in the New Testament a total of four times. Two times in Romans, once in Luke and once in Hebrews. In Romans 9:10, it says this: And not only this; ...read more

    In an age when so many things and forces threaten to control our lives, we need the reassurance that Jesus' power is available to us.

    “He’s Amazing! The Greatest Ministry Ever!” Mark 2:1-12 Mark wrote his Gospel to Christians, mostly Gentiles, living in Rome. Since being Christian in Rome was very difficult due to opposition and persecution, his main concern was to share with them the power available through ...read more

    My prayer is that God will use this tragedy to bring America to its knees—not in an act of despair, but in a reliance on an Almighty God who is ultimately in control.

    Intro: As the events of yesterday began to unfold, my emotions ran the gamut, as I’m sure did yours.

    This sermon looks at rest, the importance of rest, and the types of tiredness we can have, and how Christ satisfies them with His rest.

Think of the most tiring day, or season, in your entire life. Recall the feelings and emotions. For me, the moment ...read more
