Preaching From Philippians #3

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 28, 2021

In the last sermon, we dealt with Paul stating that whether he lived or died, his purpose for living was for the Lord Jesus.

When he wrote to the Philippian church, he was in prison. In prison he knew that he faced a capital crime and that he might be executed. If you were in prison and you thought that you might die, what kind of letter would you write? We do not have to guess at what kind of letter the Apostle Paul ...read more

Sons Or Slaves? (Trinity Sunday 2024)

Contributed by John Williams Iii on May 23, 2024

Did you notice what Paul did in this text? Paul speaks about the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit as he reminds that if we are God’s children, then we are also heirs---joint heirs because we are adopted sons and daughters of God through what Jesus did for us on the cross.

SONS OR SLAVES? Text: Romans 8:14 – 17 Rom 8:12-17 So then, brothers and sisters, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh— (13) for if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

Sermon # 5 - Faith In The Midst Of Life's Storms Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jun 4, 2024

When we are faced with trials and hardships, we should not lose heart but must know that the Lord is with us. With Jesus on our side we can walk by faith without any fear because the Lord is in perfect control.

Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 17, 2025

One-fifth of the 4 Gospels speak of Jesus' healing ministry. Not only did He heal people, but He trained and empowered His disciples to heal people, and gave that same commission to the Church. Are we following in His footsteps?
