    Effectual Fervent Prayer

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 5, 2022
     | 2,923 views

    Our prayers are often ineffective. Scripture reveals principles of effective prayer, principles we will want to observe.

    A movie by the title of The In-Laws came out in 1979. There was a re-make of it in 2003, but my favorite version is still the original one. It featured Alan Arkin as a conventional dentist and Peter Falk as a manic character who claims to be a government agent. Their kids are about to be married, ...read more

    Glorify God In Your Body

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 7, 2022
     | 2,143 views

    We preachers are always telling Christians they are to glorify God.

    Many times we do not make it clear how they are to glorify God in their bodies, because we assume they know some things they do not know. Illus: This reminds us of the story of the Air Traffic Controller who was directing some pilots in to land. • One of the pilots called this air traffic ...read more

    Many of us have learned to categorize our days as GOOD DAYS or BAD DAYS! To listen to some folks talk, they seem to have more bad days than good days!

    Illus: Someone said that YOU KNOW IT IS GOING TO BE A BAD DAY WHEN: • You call suicide prevention and they put you on hold • Your birthday cake collapses from the weight of the candles • Your twin sister forgot your birthday • Your horn goes off accidentally and remains stuck as you follow a group ...read more

    Calvin Coolidge was Vice President of the United States between 1921-1923, under President Warren Harding.

    He was not a very active vice president, but he took great pleasure in presiding over the Senate. One day, as he was presiding, one senator angrily told another senator to go, “straight to hell.” The offended Senator openly complained to Coolidge as the presiding officer. Coolidge was ...read more

    Eschatology 3 Of 16 Our Glorified Bodies (2 Of 2)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 13, 2022
     | 1,704 views

    In the last two sermons, we have been talking about the rapture of the church. I want to remind you again, the rapture is different from the second coming of Christ.

    • At the Second Coming, the Lord will literally come to the earth and set up His kingdom on earth for a thousand years. • When the rapture of the church takes place, the Lord will not come back to the earth, but the church will be caught up to meet Him in the air. Look at 1 Thess 4:17 “Then we ...read more

    Discouragement has terrible timing. Discouragement always shows up unannounced.

    “Overcoming Discouragement” Nehemiah 6: 1-16 A funny thing happened in a town in Maryland …. a woman named Edith, a mother of 8 children was coming home from a neighbor’s house one Saturday afternoon. As she walked into the house she saw 5 of her youngest children huddled together, focused ...read more

    There are so many different voices we listen to when we need help. There is the voice of God - the one we should listen to above all.

    OVERCOME BY LISTENING TO GOD 1 Samuel 3:1-16 Introduction There are so many different voices we listen to when we need help. There is that inner voice, the one we talk to when we are alone.

    Today we are going to focus on two gifts - what some call ‘the speaking gifts’. Although speaking in front of others is a major fear factor, it is necessary for sharing the good news.

    Equipped 2: Speak Truth Introduction You probably wouldn’t have any trouble identifying the top five fears that human beings face. -The number one fear is Acrophobia (Fear of Heights) -Number two: Arachnophobia (Fear of Spiders) -Third is Claustrophobia (Fear of Enclosed Spaces) -Aerophobia (Fear ...read more

    God places a great deal of emphasis on us growing in our faith and bearing fruit. But why? What difference would it make if we did?

    OPEN: There’s a story about a little boy who had a special hiding place in the back yard. It was an old fruit tree. It had lots of leaves, but it hadn’t produced fruit in years, but the little boy didn’t care. He’d climb up in those branches, and hide amongst the leaves, and for hours he’d pretend ...read more

     | 832 views

    Just as the biblical figure Jonah was summoned to the city of Nineveh to deliver a message of repentance, today's spiritual Nineveh represents a population that may lack understanding or awareness of moral and ethical principles.

    SCRIPTURAL REFERENCES (Jonah 1:1-4) (1) “Now the word of the LORD came unto Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,” (2) “Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness is come up before me.” (3) “But ...read more

     | 450 views

    People will be offended by the Gospel because it calls them to change, but, like Paul, we need to be agents of change.

    Money Causes a Riot 1 Text: Acts 19:23-27 Introduction 1. Illustration: It might be just as offensive to be around a man who never changed his mind as one who never changed his clothes. 2. Our society is obsessed with being offended. They will go out of their way to not offend someone. So much so, ...read more

    This last message in this series looks at Joshua's final or farewell address to Israel. The challenge in verses 14 and 15 are just as real for us today as for Israel in those days.

    Introduction: Joshua had been part of Israel’s past and present for many years. He had been faithful to Moses, Israel, and the LORD all of his life and had led Israel’s conquest of Canaan. Now he calls Israel together to give them one final message before his earthly journey was done. Full ...read more

    We’ve all got a RED BUCKET and a BLUE BUCKET. THE RED BUCKET - It’s red because it’s filled with gasoline. When you pour gasoline on a fire: Things escalate quickly. People end up getting hurt.
