A Home Built By God Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Aug 26, 2020

One could imagine the book of Ruth ending with - "They lived happily ever after." However, this account is not a children's story of fairy tale. In fact, it is part of the scarlet thread that runs through the Old Testament, leading to the birth of our Savior.

A Home Built by God Ruth 4: 13-22 I think you would all agree that it has been a pleasant and encouraging journey through the book of Ruth. We are all familiar with the fairy tales of our youth. Most of them begin with “Once upon a time” and end with “Happily ever-after.” The book of Ruth ...read more

The Missions Psalm Series

Contributed by B. D. B Moses on Mar 19, 2002

Here in Psalm 67 we find the purpose of God’s blessing. This purpose, for all the peoples to know salvation, is what makes Psalm 67 one of the foundational scriptures as the Biblical basis of Missions. Psalm 67 is a glorious Missions song.

When I served as Assistant Pastor of the Baptist Church, in Scotland, one of the first things I wanted to do was memorize Numbers 6:24- 26. Why the priority to memorize Numbers 6? This is because our Pastor would repeat this scripture as the benediction, at the close of every service. I knew, as ...read more

Seven Times The Righteous Rise Up Again!

Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 20, 2022

God's people are not promised immunity from trials and troubles. In fact, the Bible hints we may fall many times. Our victory is not that we never fall, but that God gives us grace and power to get up each time, so that in the end we triumph!

SEVEN TIMES THE RIGHTEOUS RISE UP AGAIN! Prov. 24:16 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Some people fall at the worst times. Like the high school graduate who fell down the platform stairs just after receiving his diploma (in front of 4,000 people). 2. A waiter in a restaurant told of slipping on a wet ...read more

Accidents Happen

Contributed by Chris Cuthbertson on Oct 16, 2017

God knows all about pain. He experienced the pain of the cross so that we could have the ultimate victory over pain, sickness, suffering, and death. God can bring good, even out of suffering. God will be victorious in the end.

Accidents Luke 13: 1 – 9; Acts 27 The phone rings in the middle of the night. A child is late coming home. Someone comes up to you and says, “I think you better sit down.” Someone comes into the store in which you’re shopping and have your hands full of merchandise and says, “We’ve got to go ...read more

God Bless You

Contributed by Grant Van Boeschoten on Apr 5, 2017

Our text today is often used as the benediction at the end of the service. It is taken from Numbers 6:22-27. I want to show both the meaning to this blessing as well as examples of how God throughout time has enacted this blessing on His people.

Some fun with origins to start the message. “God Bless You” - AD 590 Pope Gregory I commanded unending prayer and to say God bless you after a person sneezed, since sneezing was one of the first signs of the plague “Good Bye” - from 1565, the original phrase was “God be with ye” became contracted ...read more

Let The Journey Begin Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on May 19, 2022

Our journey towards a deeper and closer relationship with God is not something that just happens. We don’t just passively float through life and hope that we end up somewhere wonderful or nice. We have to be intentional and we have to be engaged in the process.

Faith Made Simple Series

Contributed by Gbemisola Fafowora on Nov 24, 2016

God wants us to live by faith everyday because he himself is a faithful God. From the beginning of his word to the end it's all about having faith in him as our God. He loves us that much he wants us to have faith in him.

Abraham was promised land, that he would be a great nation, from him all the people of the Earth would be blessed. At the end of his life he owned a burial cave, a field and the trees in that field. A heads up the promise is fulfilled. God's promises always are.

Abraham a journey of faith, and ours as heirs of the promise. The thing with Abraham and his journey of faith was that it was just that. A journey of faith.

Sermon # 48 - No Room For Rebellion Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 12, 2025

Jonah’s heart was hard and right to the end he was not willing to accept God’s forgiveness and compassion that was extended to the people of Nineveh. Rebellion against God is sin and if there is such a sin in our lives, may we set it aside and walk in obedience to the Holy Spirit.

Today’s meditation is taken from Jonah 4:9, “But God said to him, "What right do you have to be angry about the plant?" Jonah replied, "I have every right to be angry—angry enough to die!"” (GNB) God spoke to Jonah who was annoyed and angry, and asked him if it was right on his ...read more

Getting A Free Refill On His Promised Return Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Aug 29, 2010

Some people fear the end of the world. Others (even preachers) don’t believe Jesus is coming back. Why do some "Christians" think like this? And how should we feel when we think about Jesus’ 2nd coming?

There are days that can be scary. The sky gets dark, the wind whips through the trees and there is a feel of danger in the atmosphere around you. Have you ever seen a day like that?
