Exemplary Creature Of An Impeccable Creation

Contributed by Ed Lu on Aug 23, 2020

This is a discourse to observe our role as God meant for us when He made us and gave us life. And to understand how Creation is God’s overarching plan to bless us with a part to be witnesses of His love, mercy, grace, power and goodness.

God who is Creator is also my Helper 1. Psalm 121:1-2 I lift up my eyes to the mountains—where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. Here is a pauper turned psalmist because in the midst of grueling horror he sees a glorious hope. He may have been ...read more

The Greatest Man Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 15, 2021

Great men are themselves a testimony to the greatness of Jesus. It would be hard to find any famous person who has ever made a comment about Jesus who did not admit His uniqueness and greatness.

Ivan Maddox has pointed out that there have only been three perfect people in this world, and they were Adam, Eve, and Jesus Christ, who is called the second Adam. So two Adam’s and an Eve make up the total population of that mini list of people who were perfect. That list is quickly reduced to ...read more

Believing That Jesus Christ Is The Son Of God - Test #2 Series

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jun 28, 2012

Is Jesus the Christ, the true Messiah, the promised Messiah of the Old Testament? Is Jesus Christ really the Savior of men, the one sent by God to save us and to give us life? If a person believes these witnesses, then he believes in God.

Here’s one for you to think about. There was a preacher who worked hard on his sermon all week and then typed it up on Saturday night. During the night, his dog got into his office and, wouldn’t you know it, chewed his sermon up. He didn’t notice it until it was time to go to ...read more

Father: Responsibility In Relationship

Contributed by Billy Ricks on Jun 19, 2011

As fathers, men, husbands we need to exchange our point of view for Gods. The cutlural viewpoint is distorted and diseased. Let Jesus show you what it means to be a real man. A real father.

Intro: The question from the Pharisees, the rebuke from the disciples, and the rejection of Jesus by the rich man are clear indications of a great need for changing our point of view. I believe you will see as we teach this passage today that the reason there are so many problems with fathers, ...read more

The Creation Of Angels Series

Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Jan 19, 2015

Satan’s Hindrance Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 7, 2021

Paul was no pessimist. He was hindered by Satan, but he never sat down and gave up. He didn’t get to do what he wanted, but Paul rejoiced in spite of his frustration because in spite of the hindrance he had perfect confidence that ultimate victory would be his.

Children are constantly coming up with that profound argument that they feel is an infallible guide to what ought to be-“But I wanna.” I remember explaining to Steven one time that we don’t always get to do what we want, and Cindy felt that was good advice. So the next time he was refused and ...read more

The Horizontal Shift Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Sep 19, 2021

Being a disciple of Jesus Christ demands us to surrender in two directions: vertically toward God and then horizontally to serve fellow citizens of the Kingdom. We cannot choose just one.

The Horizontal Shift (Romans 12:3-8) 1.A customer walked into my clothing shop and asked to see the pants that were advertised in the paper that day. “We don’t have an ad in the paper today,” I told her. She insisted I was wrong, so I got a copy of the paper, and we went through it, eventually ...read more

Confession Is Good For The Soul Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Oct 24, 2010

Confessing Jesus is part of our response to God’s gracious gift of salvation. But is it just a one time thing, where we recite a creedal statement and that’s it? Or is there more to it?

OPEN: Years ago, a young man had just gotten out of Bible College where he’d spent several years learning all the theological terminology that he thought would make him a successful preacher. He’d just been hired at a country church and he was determined to begin bringing new people to Christ set ...read more
