    Losers Win! Series

    Contributed by C. Philip Green on Oct 19, 2018
     | 6,663 views

    When you fail, don’t try to save yourself. Instead, realize you’re a loser (we all are), and rely on the Lord to turn your failure into victory!

    Recently, I came across some cynical observations on life and work: Nothing is foolproof to a talented fool; the early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese; borrow money from a pessimist – they don't expect it back; if at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence ...read more

    It Adds Up Series

     | 13,844 views

    One of the problems in too many churches is the issue of "Whose church is this?" The answer to that question is summed up in this simple phrase: "The Lord Adds to His Church." What can that mean to us and how can it change how the church functions?

    OPEN: How many people were baptized into Christ at Pentecost? (about 3000 souls) That story in Acts has inspired many churches, evangelists, missionaries and 1000s of others to attempt to reach as many as they can to bring more and more people to Christ. One such church was one from New Jersey ...read more

    This sermon deals with how we are to grow in God's grace through taking off the old and and putting on the new.

    God’s Growing Grace Ephesians 4:22-24 An oxymoron is not someone who is foolish with a bad complexion.

    Every year folks make preparations to fill out their tax returns. It is something that we are forced to do, even though many times we disagree with how our tax money is being spent.

    Illus: I heard about a letter that was sent to a taxpayer from the IRS: "I'm afraid we can't allow you to deduct last year's tax as a bad investment." Illus: Much has been said about paying taxes: • April is always a difficult month for Americans. Even if your ship comes ...read more

    How Does The Bible Describe God?

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on May 9, 2025
     | 515 views

    If someone asked you to describe your best friend, you would be able to describe them thoroughly. If someone asked you to describe God according to what the scriptures says about Him, COULD YOU DESCRIBE HIM THOROUGHLY?

    It is important that we learn all we can learn about God from the scriptures. Why? • Because we really cannot WORSHIP GOD unless WE KNOW HIM. • Because we really cannot SERVE GOD unless WE KNOW HIM. • Because we cannot BECOME if we do not know what kind of God He is. You see, a lot of folks ...read more

    Our access to God is not by ceremonial ritual but the sacrifice of Christ.

    We have differing standards on what we consider “clean” and “unclean.” A lot depends on how meticulous we are. For some of us, when we drop a cookie, we follow the “5-second rule” (this was tested recently on Mythbusters). When I lived in Germany, everything was spotless--you could eat off the ...read more
