    Love Your Neighbor Series

    Contributed by Rodney Barlow on Feb 29, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,517 views

    We need to take a closer look at what other things the Lord have asked of us concerning loving our neighborders and bearing others burdens.

    Love Your Neighbor Gal 6:1 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. Gal 6:2 Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ. The law of Christ-Things the ...read more

    A Church Full Of Deacons Series

    Contributed by James Lee on Dec 4, 2015
     | 5,397 views

    I would like to thank Pastor Jerry Shirley for sharing this series on Acts. It has been a blessing as well as a great help. I have used these for our church, as I spend my days caring for my dying father.

    A Church Full of Deacons Acts 6:1-6 If I were to ask what are the two offices in the church, what would you say? The real answer is Pastor and Deacon. So many people in churches all over, including here at EBC don’t know who their deacons are. Very few doctrines are as misunderstood in ...read more

    Jesus Anointed

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Mar 15, 2018
     | 6,824 views

    In the Gospels we see two separate but distinct accounts of Jesus being anointed by women. Today let's take a look at the reactions of the Pharisees, the disciples and the "anointers" and see how we measure up.

    Please stand and repeat with me our current memory verse ... 2 Timothy 2:11-13 “Here is a trustworthy saying: If we died with Him, we will also live with Him; if we endure, we will also reign with Him. If we disown Him, He will also disown us; if we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He ...read more

    "Real Disciples Catch Fish" Series

    Contributed by David Henderson on Nov 20, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,969 views

    Bill Bright, who is the founder of campus Crusade for Christ said this-in all the surveys we have done, all over the world, our research indicates that approximately 95% of all believers do not know how to effectively share their faith.

    “Real Disciples catch Fish” John 1: 35-42 When it comes down to sharing our faith I think there are two things that are pretty much true for all of us. First, every one of us want to see our friends and family come to know Jesus. I want to see everyone in this community come to Christ. That’s why ...read more

     | 46,781 views

    Part 2 - The origin of the church of the first century.

    This 13-part series of classes has been many years in the making. About 25 years ago I began in earnest to examine the features, character and characteristics of the church as it existed in its earliest years. As I sometimes do, I kept my notes all along the way, and this series of classes is to a ...read more

    Behold, The Bridegroom Cometh

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Nov 6, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 23,448 views

    Jesus reveals a parable of the Ten Virgins - each having their own lamp, but only five had oil in their lamps. When the call sounded to meet the Bridegroom, only five were ready. We must have oil in our lamps when the call is sounded to meet the Lord.

    Behold, the Bridegroom Cometh Matthew 25: 1-13 We have read another of Jesus’ parables. Parables were used of our Lord to communicate a heavenly truth through an earthly illustration. This parable was given to the people of Israel, but there is application and instruction for each of us. In ...read more

    Guided, Guarded, And Guaranteed Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 10,409 views

    Paul offers another example for the church to follow, guiding their faith. He offers a word of caution, seeking to guard them from apostasy. Finally he offers a word of comfort regarding the Lord's return, a guarantee for the believer.

    Guided, Guarded, and Guaranteed Philippians 3: 17-21 A young boy looked up at his grandfather and wondered aloud, "Grandpa, how do you live for Jesus?" The respected grandfather stooped down and quietly told the boy, "Just watch." As the years went by the grandfather was an example to the boy ...read more

    #2 Que Sera Sera?

    Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Nov 19, 2014
     | 4,320 views

    Que sera sera, what will be will be --- may be a popular idea, but it is not Biblical. The new young King will not listen to the preacher... The price tag is expensive. Be a prisoner of hope!

    *2 QUE SERA SERA... WHAT WILL BE WILL BE... PRISONER OF THE WIND...... By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com Part two...

    He's Coming To Town Series

    Contributed by Steve Smith on Dec 4, 2006
    based on 7 ratings
     | 12,513 views

    While we sing and talk of one coming on a sleigh, we must remember that Jesus will also be Coming to Town but rather than on a sleigh pulled by reindeer, he will be in the clouds and rather than by reindeer, he will come with power and glory!

    INTRO Isn’t it amazing what Christmas has become? How the sweet calm picture of the birth of one named Jesus has become so much about rush, money, and envy. ILL: Listen to this parody of the Christmas season that I read this past week: "And there were in the same country children keeping watch ...read more

    A sermon on the fears surrounding death. Main verses from Hebrews 2:14-15

    HoHum: When I die, I want to die peacefully and die in my sleep like my Grandfather did. Not screaming like the passengers in his car. WBTU: Mankind naturally has a fear of death. “I don’t fear death at all.” That person is either not being honest or has lost his mind. That fear will remain ...read more

     | 7,403 views

    We can easily become complacent and lukewarm in a comfortable environment, self-deceived into thinking we are fine. The Lord reveals our true need.

    This is the most popular and the most used passage among all the seven messages given to the churches in Revelation. • It is so because many people can identify with the condition in Laodicea. • This church’s experience wasn’t unique; it is common. We see that even in our own lives. • The ...read more

    Restoration Series

     | 15,672 views

    Peter blew it, that’s for certain. He denied the Lord three times. But in Chapter 21 we see the gentle way Jesus restores Peter to fellowship and purpose. He does the same for us.

    Do you ever fail Jesus? John the Apostle said “1 John 1:8-9 If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.” One of the most common experiences we as Christians share is the reality that we will fall. No matter how hard we try we will do things that are against he ...read more

     | 7,578 views

    This message seeks to advise the Church of the nature of friendship and what is involved, so that the Church can not only form new friendship, but learn to be friendly to visitors.

    Facts About Forming Friendships Text: Prov. 18:24 Intro: You may wonder why this preacher would choose a topic like friendship. “What does friendship have to do with the church, and following the Lord?” you might ask. Well, quite truthfully, the Bible has quite a lot to say about ...read more
