Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jul 30, 2025

We have some insights into the problems Jeremiah faced with schemes against him from vindictive assailants. All day long he had to face their whispers and their hatred. Don’t confine this to Jeremiah because it is rapidly increasing against those who love their Lord. Perilous times are coming.

The Battle Is The Lords

Contributed by Larry Grant on Jun 4, 2023

Tested In The Wilderness Youth Sermon

Contributed by Youth Sermons on Sep 4, 2023

Jesus faced temptation in the wilderness after fasting for forty days. Each time Satan tempted Him, Jesus responded with scripture, choosing to rely on God alone. When we face testing in our own lives, we can stand firm in our faith and trust in God's provision.

A Message For The Birds Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jul 25, 2011

Why does Genesis tell us about Noah sending out a Raven and a Dove to see if the waters had receded from the face of the earth? Why bother? They're just a couple of insignificant birds... or are they?

Faith When Your Future Looks Bleak Series

Contributed by Rick Duncan on Jan 13, 2003

The fact that we live in time means that we tend to worry about the future. In this talk, we will examine some of God’s His attributes that can help us face an uncertain future. When we get to know God, we find greater hope for facing life’s challenges.

The pessimist mainly complains about the wind. The optimist simply expects it to change. The realist wisely adjusts the sails. This is a talk for the optimist who just expects things to get better, but rarely is willing to take action. So, the future never really gets brighter. And it’s a talk ...read more

Sermon # 12 - God's Grace And Man's Responsibility Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 15, 2024

God’s grace and His justice are like two sides of the same coin. Both go hand in hand and if we underplay one or overplay the other, we will err and miss out on God’s eternal reward. The life of Lot and his family will help us understand this better.

We read in Genesis 19:16, When Lot still hesitated, the angels seized his hand and the hands of his wife and two daughters and rushed them to safety outside the city, for the LORD was merciful. (NLT) Most of us are familiar with the incident of the destruction of the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. ...read more

There is not telling as to the extraordinary outcomes when the church comes together to pray. The only way we can assure in a revival, and the powerful move of the Holy Spirit is through prayer.
