Contributed by Brien Sims on Jul 7, 2008

The Army’s motto says exactly that, “Be all you can be in the Army.” How often do you look in the mirror and wish something would change in your life? ...read more

Memorial Day - Remember!

Contributed by Melvin Newland on Aug 6, 2018

Many churches ignore Memorial Day because it is not one of the holy days on the church calendar. But I believe it is good for us to consider what Memorial Day really represents, for its very name calls us to remember.

MELVIN NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK TEXT: Exodus 12:12-14; 1 Corinthians 11:24-27; Joshua 4:6-7 (A You-Tube video of someone playing "Taps" was shown just before the sermon.) ILL. I'm sure most of you ...read more

The Danger Of Seeing God

Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 19, 2016

Familiarity with God can result is treating Him with casual disregard leading to judgement.

“Moses and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel went up, and they saw the God of Israel. There was under his feet as it were a pavement of sapphire stone, like the very heaven for clearness. And he did not lay his hand on the chief men of the people of Israel; they ...read more

Did Judas Do Any Good? Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 5, 2023

Judas got nothing good–not pleasure or honor or power. He ended up being the only person in the Bible whom God judged as being better off never being born.

Wednesday of Holy Week 2023 It does not seem terribly fair what happened to poor Kerioth-born Judas, as Matthew records it. He sells out Jesus for what in today’s currency would be about $260. Then, seeing Jesus condemned to death, he changes his mind and attempts to return the money to the ...read more

Saul's Righteous Anger (1 Samuel 11)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Apr 6, 2025

Is all anger evil, or is there a righteous anger? Let's look at 1 Samuel 11.

Can we be passive or must we conquer evil? Can God mercifully rescue us from evil? Do God’s enemies want to humiliate us? Does righteous anger conquer evil and unrighteous anger let evil conquer us? Let’s look at 1 Samuel 11. Did the Ammonites threaten Jabesh in Gilead with a humiliating offer of ...read more

The End Of Saul – A Tragic Lesson In Disobedience Series

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jul 4, 2025

The death of Saul is not just a tragic end—it is a divine warning. He began with divine favour, but ended in divine silence. His life teaches us that charisma without character, and position without obedience, lead to ruin. Saul chose to please people over pleasing God.
