Hoarders

Contributed by Kelly Benton on Feb 22, 2011

Hoarders are people that are in a constant battle by an obsessive need to acquire (and failure to use or discard) a significant amount of possessions, even if the items are worthless, hazardous, or unsanitary. This is much like when people come to Jesus.

Who has seen the A& E series, “Hoarders”? I love the show! Hoarders is a fascinating look inside the lives of different people whose inability to part with their belongings is so out of control that they are on the verge of a personal crisis.

The believers were not called Christians in Jerusalem, but were called Christians in Antioch.

Text: “The disciples were called Christians first at Antioch” (Acts 11:26). Who is a Christian? How would you define a Christian? I would say that a Christian is a person who believes in and follows the teachings of Jesus Christ. A Christian is one who proclaims, follows, and lives ...read more

Koinonia Of Worship Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Dec 14, 2017

This message is a call to pursue God's presence during a worship service. New Testament Christianity calls for our participation. We must be careful our "worship" service doesn't become a performance with an audience. We want everyone engaging in worship.

2/26/17 In the introduction to his first epistle, the Apostle John talks about his revelation of Jesus and then gives this reason for writing this letter, 1 John 1:3. “that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you [here is his purpose- that you] also may have fellowship with us; ...read more

Explained: Ineffectiveness In Prayer.

Contributed by Patrick Usifo on Aug 18, 2022

Why then are we hindered in our prayer life? Because we lack the understanding of what we are up against when we pray. Hence, a prayerless Christian is a powerless Christian. And a powerful believer is a prayerful believer. Prayer can be vocalized, or said silent, and with tears.

Many songs have been written over the years that encourages a believer to pray. I remember fondly one of the songs I learned in my early days when I was converted to the faith. The song was titled "Prayer is the key". I memorized the song out of my love and joy for singing church hymnals. ...read more

The Wolves Close In Series

Contributed by Chuck Sligh on Aug 28, 2016

To hear animal rights people tell it, wolves are the most lovable creatures there are. But really, wolves are vicious, bloodthirsty killers. In Acts 15:1-2, spiritual wolves arrive to counter Paul’s teaching of salvation by grace alone through faith alone
