    Go Thy Way-Jesus And The Rich Young Ruler Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Mar 6, 2020
     | 3,365 views

    He had all the "right stuff", humanly speaking, but he knew something was wrong. He ran to Jesus, listened to Jesus, but walked away. "Go thy way" wasn't something he wanted to do.

    Based on a message preached at First Baptist Church, Glasgow, MO, 2014 This is not an exact transcription Background: When an event in Scripture is recorded once, it’s clearly important. This event was mentioned in three of the four Gospels! This event took place shortly before the Lord Jesus ...read more

    Dead air. Static. Interference. All keep us from tuning in and being able to hear. However, hearing is essential. Lean in and tune in this year!

    Tune In Pt. 5 - Fine Tuning I. Introduction ?We have talked about tuning in to hear God this year. We have dealt with the feeling of facing dead air or silence, the static or interference we sometimes experience, the fact that God broadcasts, and the need for an amplifier to push the signal. ...read more

WE ARE SELECTIVE ABOUT WHICH RULES WE PAY ATTENTION TO. - Matthew 12:1-5, 9-11. - The Pharisees considered themselves to be the ...read more

    Some time back, our denomination’s District Executive minister wanted to get to know me, since I was a new minister in the region. He wanted to treat me to an authentic southern breakfast, so he took me out to a Cracker Barrell Country Store. He ordered “Grits.”

    Introduction: Some time back, our denomination’s District Executive minister wanted to get to know me, since I was a new minister in the region.

     | 6,873 views

    While we are thankful for the blessings associated with our relationship with Christ, we know living the Christian life is difficult at best. Life is not without adversity, but the Lord's provision and guidance are sufficient. He has brought us to this place in life for such a time as this.

    Called for such a Time Esther 4: 10-17 The entire fourth chapter of Esther deals with her reaction to the decree signed by Ahasuerus regarding the Jews and the conversation she had with Mordecai concerning this disturbing plan. Our text today is a continuation of that conversation. One can only ...read more

    It Is Finished

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Apr 7, 2024
     | 1,328 views

    Jesus cried his last words on the cross, "It is finished". The work of redemption is accomplished, the will of the Father fulfilled, and the witness of the Father completed.

    John 19:28-30 IT IS FINISHED John 19:28-30 – The Death of Jesus 28After this, Jesus, knowing that all was now finished, said (to fulfil the Scripture), “I thirst.” 29A jar full of sour wine stood there, so they put a sponge full of the sour wine on a hyssop branch and held it to his mouth. 30When ...read more

    A sermon about how much God loves you.

    “Beloved” Luke 15:1-32 If there were one word I could use to describe how other people see you what would it be? Maybe it would be “smart” or “athletic” or “funny” or “popular” or “loner” or “nerd.” Think about it for a minute. What is that one word I could use to describe how other people ...read more

    Contributed by Robert Butler on Apr 7, 2025
     | 594 views

    The way of Jesus is one of Love empowered by the Holy Spirit to do His will in this life.

    God has an amazing life of adventure and purpose waiting for us all. But very few people find it. A lot of people think “I tried the God thing, but it didn't work.” The problem is that the promises of God don't happen without the practices of Jesus. AND Most people aren't taught what ...read more

    Joy Of Salvation

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 8, 2025
     | 297 views

    Revival is not about guilt trips, programs, or emotional hype — it is about seeing God afresh and rediscovering the joy of salvation. True revival happens when we move from obsessing over our failures to fixing our eyes on the God who forgives, restores, and renews.

    “Restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation, and uphold me with Thy free spirit.” Psalm 51:12 Introduction – Passion Misplaced The kingdom of God is not going to advance simply because our churches are full of people. No — the kingdom of God is going to advance when the people who are in our ...read more

    The Necessity Of Shed Blood Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Nov 2, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,779 views

    The precious blood of Jesus Christ, offered by Himself, purifies not only outwardly, as the Levitical sacrifices on the day of atonement, but inwardly unto the service of the living God. His death is the inaugurating act of the new covenant, and of the heavenly sanctuary.

    The Book of Hebrews Tom Lowe 7/6/20 v Hebrews (9:13-22; KJV) 13For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh: 14How much ...read more

    Millions of people will find disappointment on that final day because they trusted in their own works rather than Christ for salvation.

    Warnings are very important. If your smoke detector goes off, it’s giving you a warning. If the lights on the dash of your car, or truck comes on, it’s a warning that something needs to be given attention. Sometimes those lights don’t mean a thing. You may have driven a car for years and a ...read more

    I Am The Vine

     | 9,437 views

    So we have Jesus as the Vine, God the Father as the Vinedresser, and us as the branches. Having made those distinctions, let me share with you the lessons I think we can learn from this passage.

    A while back we began a study of the times throughout the Gospel of John where Jesus said, “I am…” I am the Light of the world. I am the Door. I am the Good Shepherd. I am the Bread of Life. Tonight I want us to close out this series by looking at another one of these statements that Jesus ...read more
