    Ezra 10: 1 – 44 Faux Wedding Ceremony 10 Now while Ezra was praying, and while he was confessing, weeping, and bowing down before the house of God, a very large assembly of men, women, and children gathered to him from Israel; for the people wept very bitterly. 2 And Shechaniah the son of Jehiel, ...read more

    Sometimes we think it must be big to be God. That is not always the outcome.

    BIG LESSONS FROM SMALL THINGS or FAITHFUL OVER A FEW THINGS Introduction: Prophet Zechariah 4:10--- "For who has despised the day of small things?" He was trying to encourage a nation as they were rebuilding their temple and having a difficult time. The budget was low, ...read more

  • …the Good Hand Of His God Upon Him

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 9, 2021
     | 3,836 views

    Today in this sermon, we want to turn our attention to a very special man. His name is Ezra. He is one of those fellows you do not hear a great deal about, but yet he was a giant among men in the spiritual world.

    Ezra was a priest, but he was not able to serve in the temple because the temple had been destroyed. This could be why we do not hear a lot about Ezra. He was not a temple priest. Ezra is noted for other things, such as: • He studied the Word of God. In Ezra 7:6, we read that he was, “A ready ...read more

  • Do Not Be Tongue Twisted

    O, for one to prophesy and maybe a thousand to sing, but none for a vain thing.

    For over forty years I was a hardcore Cessationist, but now believe that God can do whatever He wants in any dispensation. The Holy Spirit has not run out of gifts nor was stripped of some by God after the first century or when the Bible was completed. That said, there are manifestations of ...read more

  • On With God's Work Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jun 15, 2022
     | 2,660 views

    When we have setbacks we need to hear and cherish the voices that cry out, get on with God’s work. What God’s people need in this situation is the voice of encouragement.

    You may remember the dramatic scene from the movie Chariots of Fire. It is when Eric Liddell Falls in a race, gets up and goes on to win the race. Now that is an inspiration. What about us as Christians? Do we stumble? Do we get tripped up and fall down? Of course we do. But we don’t lay there. We ...read more

  • Working Together Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jun 25, 2022
     | 4,545 views

    The first two chapters of Ezra tells us that the exiled people returned to the promised land. But something even more important is taking place. The Lord’s people are returning to God. Now unity among the remnant group is essential.

    Musk oxen are herd animals, and groups of two or three dozen animals are sometimes led by a single female. Herds use cooperation to deal with attacks by arctic wolves. When threatened, they “circle the wagons” and array themselves with their young in the middle and their sharp horns facing outward ...read more

     | 1,636 views

    This sermon focuses on the story of the Jewish people who have been released from Babylonian captivity to rebuild the Jerusalem temple, and the applications for believers today.

    We are continuing our series called The Story. God’s story as told through the people, places, and events of the Bible. Last week, we talked about the story of a guy named Daniel and the Lion’s Den. This week we are going to continue the story about the Babylonian captivity. Specifically, we ...read more

  • Are You A Church Builder?

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Mar 16, 2021
     | 5,887 views

    The work in Christ’s church will not get done in a hurry. We don’t even have a target date for completion. But this is what makes the difference for our church building: It’s the work of our Lord! It’s the church that Christ bought with his precious blood.

    Are you a church builder? Do you see it as your responsibility to serve the church of Christ? To strengthen it, and to grow it? You should, because that’s the calling given to you by the Lord God! Sometimes we like to leave church-building work to the experts. We leave the physical aspects of the ...read more

  • When Problems Come

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on May 2, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,471 views

    Problems come. It's part of life. What are some general principles we need to follow when they do? We look at one of the greatest problems / difficulties / challenges in the history of God's people - the destruction of Jerusalem at the hands of the Babylonians and the exile - for lessons.

    Everyone faces problems from time to time. Churches also face problems. For example, a church might unexpectedly lose its pastor and some other key members of its leadership at around the same time. If that happened, how would you view it? Perhaps some of you would say that it’s a CHALLENGE, ...read more

  • Kingdom Keys - Ezra Series

    To fully restore our connection to God, we must become aware of our sins, admit them to another and act in a way which totally removes the sin and its tempters from our presence quickly. Any compromise robs us of a true connection to our God.

    So maybe you’ve heard it said, ‘read your bible’ so you tried and failed. Our hope as leaders is that all of us will pick up God’s word and come to understand the true nature of God. After all, the bible is God’s Word curated over centuries detailing His nature, His will, the meaning of life and ...read more

  • Will We Cry Or Will We Praise

     | 8,275 views

    We have the choice, we can cry about how things use to be, or we can praise God for what he’s about to do.

    Because of Israel’s refusal to abandon their idols and worship the one true God, they were chastened by the Lord and were taken away into captivity by the Babylonians. This captivity was to last 70 years, Jer. 25:11-12. This 70 year period began in 605 B.C., when the Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar ...read more

    How do we know where we should make a stand?

    A few decades ago, when George Bush was running for president, he visited Bob Jones University. You would not believe the media firestorm that ensued. Some people were outraged that Bush went there at all, while others were astonished that his political opponents made so much of it. Of course, ...read more

  • Plot Twist : Failure Series

    Contributed by Louis Mare on Oct 5, 2023
     | 1,426 views

    I remember at the beginning of the year feeling that, feeling that so intently. I want to show you what I shared at the beginning of this year, and then maybe you will see the topic in our series I am going to talk about today:

    Let us be honest: this year was also a challenging year for some if not all of us. We lost loved ones, and businesses changed. Loadshedding and the ripple effect it has. Fires destroying homes and family members not speaking to each other. Job losses, to mention a few. I remember at the beginning ...read more
