    In the election of Greek-speaking deacons and Stephen's ministry, we see how God prepares His men and plans His move.

    Let’s read Acts 6:8-15. We are going to look at Stephen, one of the elected SEVEN. 8 Now Stephen, a man full of God's grace and power, did great wonders and miraculous signs among the people. 9 Opposition arose, however, from members of the Synagogue of the Freedmen (as it was called)-Jews ...read more

     | 2,942 views

    This is the text of a Good Friday service worked into a series. It featured an on-stage enactment of a Passover Seder, "narrated" by the speaker of the message, explaining the significance of Passover in light of the gospel.

    Introduction: (Scripture read - offstage) Exodus 12:3-14 …This is a day you are to commemorate; for the generations to come you shall celebrate it as a festival to the LORD--a lasting ordinance.

    At one time or other all of us have been removed from our usual roles in life and have found ourselves in strange situations. When this happened we did not know quite what to do with ourselves.

    All of us have a particular group of people that we are comfortable with. While we know some people are quite versatile and can adapt themselves to any group they associate with, others have a hard time adapting. Illus: For example, we all know there is a proper way to arrange a place setting at ...read more

    The Danger Of Living In Perilous Times

     | 10,593 views

    2 Timothy; 1, 2, 3 John and 1 & 2 Peter are all books that deal with the PERILOUS TIMES that are to come.

    When we read II Timothy we can easily detect that the apostle Paul was greatly concerned about young Timothy. Let me show you the concern. IN CHAPTER ONE Paul reminded Timothy that his mother and grandmother had raised him right. In II Timothy 1:5 Paul says, “When I call to remembrance the ...read more

     | 5,018 views

    Labor Day: The Year of Jubilee was a period of rest and restoration; a time when debts were cancelled and slaves set free. Many today wish they could have a year’s vacation with all their debts cancelled! The greatest Jubilee is in Christ!

    On this Labor Day weekend, as we look at the account of the “Year of Jubilee,” we will observe a period of rest and restoration extended to the children of Israel. The Bible tells us that the Jubilee occurred every forty-nine years (v. 8). It was a time when all the land experienced a sabbath, or ...read more

    Enoch: A Walk Of Faith

    Contributed by Dennis Lee on Sep 26, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,518 views

    Bible describes Enoch’s life in only 13 words, but in these 13 words, we find a faith so powerful and so vibrant that God couldn’t wait any longer to be forever with him. From this brief account, there is a goldmine of insight we can gain on the type of faith that pleases God.

    Enoch: A Walk of Faith Hebrews 11:5 Three men were at a funeral of a friend, and the pastor asked, “What do you want your friends to say about you when you are laying in a casket?” • After the service they began thinking about it, and one man said, “I want my friends to say that I was a good ...read more

    I’m concerned about the future, for it seems that our nation is now establishing, through many of its leaders, courts & judges, a distinctively anti-Christian agenda. The values we cherish are under assault.

    Made By God

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Aug 19, 2024
     | 1,026 views

    The scriptures encourage us to view our bodies the way God does as fearfully and wonderfully made, to live our lives aligned with the way God created us to live and glorify Him with our bodies.

    Have you ever thought about how, why, and to what degree we as human beings place value on things, whether the object is a person, idea, behavior, piece of art, other? There is something called the Value Theory which basically states that we place a value on something based on how “good” it is ...read more

    Fear is a trouble way to live your life. Fear can cause many actions but running away from something or being paralyze from Fear is not for a believer.

    Sermon # 13 - The Way Of The Cross Part 2 - Standing Around The Cross Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Apr 10, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 549 views

    Around the cross of Jesus were many people and it is interesting to note how each of them responded to the Savior’s cruel death. We must examine ourselves too to make sure that we truly understand and value what the Loving Lord Jesus did for us on our behalf on the cross of Calvary.

    We read in John 19:17-18, He went out, carrying his cross, and came to "The Place of the Skull," as it is called. (In Hebrew it is called "Golgotha.") There they crucified him; and they also crucified two other men, one on each side, with Jesus between them. (GNB) That day when ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Apr 30, 2025
     | 394 views

    People walked away from God with stiffened necks. The idolatrous nation was so wicked they would not repent. In the message we see God had tried so much to reach the nation of Judah but they were stubborn and rebellious and rejected and killed the prophets. Disobedience considered.
