     | 531 views

    After a dedicated time of retreat and prayer, Jesus chooses 12 from among his followers to be his ambassadors. Although none of them seem qualified, time has proven out their faithfulness to the call.

    Some Sundays start out a little more hectic than others. Here I am, supposed to preach today, and I left my Bible at home. I was not off to a good start. Fortunately, my dear wife got it to me in time for the first service, but my brain has been a little mushy ever since. So, we're going to get ...read more

    A little more than 10 years ago (2011), comedian Steve Martin introduced the entire atheist hymnal (on one page of paper). He called it, “Atheists Don’t Have No Songs.” Take a look (show Atheists Don't Have No Songs—Steve Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers). Christians have their hymns and ...read more

    He gave Himself on the cross so that you would not have to face God’s wrath on account of your sins. Jesus calls you to turn from your selfishness and sin and to follow Him.

    Opening illustration: During a NASA space shuttle launch, you will hear the phrase “negative return.” It is a phrase that is part of the abort protocol. It means the shuttle has reached the point and speed at which a return to the launch site is impossible. No astronaut wants to be at “negative ...read more

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on May 16, 2024
     | 930 views

    As we know Pentecost is about the birthday of the Church. Our marching orders for the Kingdom following the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ are to be Spirit filled, Spirit fed and Spirit led as we go and make disciples!

    John 16:7-14 Nevertheless I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.

    Why Do We Need The Bible?

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jul 30, 2024
     | 716 views

    But God is telling us today that when we ground our lives on God's Word, we are following the conductor of the universe while playing the beautiful song He created us to play.

    The title of the message is why do we need the Bible. That's a question that I would expect to be asked from a child. Or maybe even a youth. But I am sure that there are adults out there that ask the same question. Have you ever been to a symphony? You go into the auditorium and you grab a ...read more

    Servant Of All

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Sep 19, 2024
     | 403 views

    Jesus lived out and taught us how to become great in the Kingdom of God. We not only deny ourselves, pick up our cross and follow Jesus, but humble ourselves to become servant to all.

    WHEN WE THINK OF SERVICE TO OTHERS AND ALL THE POSSIBLE WAYS TO ENGAGE OUR ABILITIES, I READ A RATHER HUMOROUS WAY OF LOOKING AT THIS WHICH SAID, ““IF YOU THINK YOU ARE TOO SMALL TO BE EFFECTIVE, YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN IN BED WITH A MOSQUITO.” HOWEVER, ON A MORE SERIOUS NOTE, I LIKE THE WORDS OF JOHN ...read more

    Does God still speak through dreams? How do you know truth? There are some things that can only be done by God and we need to make sure we follow no one but God.

    No One But God (Daniel 2:9-11) Intro: A. I love when a writer of the Bible just stops what he is writing and beings to praise God. But it is even more impressive to me when someone who is not connected to Jehovah see the work of Jehovah and has to praise Him, even if that person still does not ...read more

Not just any ice cream, not Hy Vee or Walmart or even Albertsons, but rather the greatest ice cream of all time: Baskin Robins Ice Cream. When I go to Baskin Robins, I have ...read more

    Whether good seed or bad, in season or out, to overcome problems, reach your destiny and potential, become fruitful, to be renewed in mind, body and spirit, we must follow God’s seedtime and harvest principle.

    We excuse ourselves from the great privilege, honor and duty of seeding into the Kingdom of God when we assign to others that which is clearly our responsibility. God founded the principle of seedtime and harvest: "As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold ...read more

    After pubicly re-instating Peter, Jesus wants Peter to focus on following Him, and get his eyes off what Jesus is going to do with John ... Peter has his own cross to bear.

    “Mind Your Own Business” John 21:18-23 INTRODUCTION: We continue in our series on the Post-Resurrection appearances of Jesus.

     | 9,027 views

    The challenge of the Great Commission is this. We need to 1. Know the message and where it has come from; 2. Be committed to following Christ ourselves and 3. Pray for protection from evil that we too will not fall.

     | 10,964 views

    What is it that identifies us as disciples of Jesus? The world can tell that we follow Jesus by certain aspects of our life. The question we need to consider is would people be shocked to find out you are a Christian?

    “How am I Identified as a Disciple?” Introduction: How is it that people will know that I am a disciple of Jesus? I go to church every Sunday; does that make me a Christian? I tell people that I am a Christian; does that identify me as a disciple of Jesus? If I wear a WWJD does that identify ...read more

    Israel like America receiving wake up calls from God, repented and changed in the short term. Why do we follow this pattern and what can bring about permanent long term change?

    What does it mean to "take up" or "bear a cross? What does it mean when someone says, "I want to take up my cross and follow Jesus"?

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK This morning I want us to look at a passage of Scripture found in Mark 8:34-35. "Then Jesus called the crowd to Him along with His disciples & said: ‘If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself & take up ...read more
