    To share that we can get left behind from receiving what God has planned for us because of selfishness and priorities.

    Today’s sermon is titled “Left Behind”. I am sure all of us have left things behind a time or two in our busy lives haven’t we? I think we can all relate to leaving the house and forgetting our wallet or leaving a restaurant and forgetting something on the table such as sun glasses or car ...read more

    Do Jesus's family values match ours?

    We often talk about the Church being a Family - which sounds all sweet and fluffy … until we read a passage like today’s Gospel. Given a choice between those who share his genes and those who share his faith, Jesus says “Here [point to congregation] are my mother, my sisters, my ...read more

    This message is from a series that looks at God's desire for us to live life in a way that avoids being overloaded and overextended.

    Busyness and productivity are values that seem to be held high in our culture. In fact, these values are looked on quite favorably in the church. We often live as though busyness is next to Godliness. Dr. J. Grant Howard describes our culture this way, “Some people can’t say no. They ...read more

    Our own needs, wants and desires often gets in the way of what God calls us to do.

    Just a reminder, as we look at the renovation of God’s house, we must also look at the renovation or the revitalization of our hearts. A greatly improved structure in which we meet will be of no use if our hearts are not in tuned with One Who calls us. Today’s message is “Getting Sidetracked” We ...read more

    What Should Really Matter In Life?

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 21, 2021
     | 3,657 views

    The Bible clearly reveals what was important to the Lord. And the things that were important to Him should also be important to us.

    But that is not the case for some folks. It is amazing what some people see as important. Illus: Clovis Chappell, a minister from a century back, used to tell the story of two paddle boats. They left Memphis about the same time, traveling down the Mississippi River to New Orleans. As they ...read more

    The Great Depression # 3

    Some time ago, a newspaper in Tacoma, Washington, carried the story of Tattoo, the basset hound. Tattoo didn't intend to go for an evening run, but when his owner shut his leash in the car door and took off with Tattoo still outside the vehicle, he had no choice.

    A motorcycle officer named Terry Filbert noticed a passing vehicle with something that appeared to be dragging behind it. As he passed the vehicle, he saw the object was a basset hound on a leash. "He was picking them up and putting them down as fast as he could," said Filbert. He ...read more

    God’s List Of Do’s And Don’ts (1-3)

     | 2,738 views

    Often, when God’s man has the courage to stand before the people of God, and declare the whole counsel of God’s Word, it does not earn him any favorable treatment.

    Why? Because he tells them things they do not want to hear. For example, how many would turn to the astrology section of the newspaper, if it told them something like this, “You are a very dumb person, and because of that, some very bad things are going to happen to you today!” They turn to the ...read more

    Sometimes we seek Jesus for good reasons and sometimes not so Good. All the while Jesus is maintaining his priorities.

    1. William H. Hinson tells us why animal trainers carry a stool when they go into a cage of lions. They have their whips, of course, and their pistols are at their sides. But they also carry a stool, the most important tool of the trainer. He holds the stool and thrusts the legs toward the face of ...read more
