Stand Firm For The Family

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Dec 22, 2025

Anyone here named Eutychus? No? Good. Do y’all know that the Apostle Paul preached so long one night, that a young man who was perched in a window, fell asleep and fell to his death?

Now listen, I know Paul resurrected that young man, but I’d just as soon wish everyone would stay awake for the next 3 hours that I’ve been given to speak to you. Seriously though, I want y’all to receive this in the spirit in which it is given. Pastor Parrish encouraged us to “be real” in our ...read more

Sermon # 44 - Overcome Evil With Good Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 13, 2025

Everyone has a choice to either do evil for evil or to repay evil with good. The latter is a godly decision which God approves of and the way Jesus exemplified. When our children are taught this when young, they will grow up to always do good no matter what evil is done to them.

We read in Genesis 4:1, Now Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore Cain, and said, “I have acquired a man from the LORD.” (NKJV) When the first man Adam and his wife Eve had a baby boy, the words of Eve were, ‘I have acquired a man from the Lord.’ Children are given to us by the Lord, ...read more
