    Three Cheers From Jesus Series

    Contributed by Joshua Blackmon on Jul 6, 2025
     | 410 views

    Christian joy is rooted in the presence and promises of Jesus Christ. His repeated command to His followers is not, “Shape up,” but, “Cheer up.” The gospel is good news. Jesus gives us three great reasons to rejoice: forgiveness, fellowship, and final victory.

    SERMON TITLE: Three Cheers from Jesus (Based on Chapter 1 of Vance Havner’s The Secret of Christian Joy)* Key Texts: Matthew 9:2 – "Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee." Mark 6:50 – "Be of good cheer: it is I; be not afraid." John 16:33 – "Be of good cheer; I ...read more

    The dreams of Joseph lay out the larger vision of what God will fulfill in His life. What can we learn from it about the way God works?

    - Sermon series: “Character Amid Crisis.” - Joseph is not necessary the most important of the OT characters. That would probably go to Abraham or Moses or David. But I think Joseph stands as the greatest saint of the OT in his behavior. He doesn’t have the major lapses in his behavior like most of ...read more

    Satan’s Limitations: Satan Is Not Omnipresent Series

    Contributed by Jenny Franklin on Sep 12, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,293 views

    Job 1-2 reveals Satan’s limitations. Satan is not God’s equal opposite. Satan isn’t omnipresent (everywhere), omnipotent (all-powerful) or omniscient (all-knowing). This session’s focus - Satan isn’t God’s Equal, Satan isn’t Omnipresent.

    **************** Job 1-2 gives us some remarkable information about Satan. Job reminds me of Revelation in that the scenes go back and forth between spiritual and physical. In both books of the Bible, we see scenes in the spiritual realm in Heaven and the resulting physical ramifications on ...read more

    Peculiar People

    Israel's desire for a king is used to illustrate the temptation we face to be more like the rest of the world. But even though the world's view of us often chafes, it is God's plan that we be conspicuously different.

    I) After Moses brought the nation of Israel out of Egypt, they did not have a king for many years. A) Unlike the nations around them, they were led by men and women, judges, who were direct intermediaries between God and man. B) Early on, the people tried to make one of those judges, Gideon, into ...read more
