God Is A God Of The Mountains And The Valleys

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 2, 2022

The Christian life is filled with MOUNTAIN TOP EXPERIENCES and VALLEY EXPERIENCES.

We all enjoy the MOUNTAIN TOP experiences. In God’s Word we find the writers used many superlatives to describe the blessings God bestows upon us. We are told that a good writer never uses too many superlatives for fear of overstating their case. They are to be reserved for special occasions ...read more

God’s Great Love

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 5, 2022

Let me ask you TWO questions:

(1) WHY DOES GOD LOVE MANKIND? Why? Because the Bible says GOD IS LOVE! He can’t help Himself - GOD IS LOVE! (2) WHY DIDN’T GOD MAKE US AS ROBOTS AND CREATE US WHERE WE ALL WOULD HAVE TO LOVE HIM?

Showing God’s Kindness Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Sep 6, 2022

David knew God’s kindness. He was not undisputed king because he deserved it, but because he of God’s kindness. What better way to respond to God’s kindness to him by showing another kindness. Mephibosheth once lived in favor in the royal family.

The most famous story of the life of King David is the David and Goliath story. Almost every Sunday school child could tell you that story. But what about David and Mephibosheth? It is not so well known. For one thing it is easier to stay Goliath than it is Mephibosheth. Just try to say ...read more

Responding To God’s Promises Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Sep 21, 2022

Think back to the last time you had an “unanswered prayer.” How did you respond before God? Augustine’s mother may have been angry with God that her son went to Rome after she prayed he not go. For us, next time, let us remember David’s response.

Augustine in his confession, writes about as a young man he was intending to travel to Rome. His mother was against it and prayed against it. She prayed earnestly that he might be prevented from going. Her reason being that she feared what effect the temptation of sin in the depravity of that big ...read more

Gathering With God’s People Series

Contributed by Claude Alexander on Feb 16, 2022

The Psalms of Ascent have an upward motion. They begin in Psalm 120 with the psalmist crying out in trouble far away from Jerusalem, and they end in Psalm 134 with the psalmist offering up praise in the temple courts.

Gathering with God’s People Psalm 122 We are studying the Psalms of Ascent together and when we reach Psalm 122 something odd happens. The psalmist arrives in Jerusalem. There are fifteen Psalms of Ascent, and we are only on the third psalm and we’re already there! How can that be? The Psalms ...read more

Forcing God’s Hand

Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Feb 26, 2022

This message looks at the account of someone who was given a promise by God that he would receive a great blessing. But he, along with his wife, took matters into their own hands, and tried to get ahead of God, leading to strife.

In our message this morning we’re going to focus on how we need to have patience when following the Lord. Hebrews is a book of the Bible that frequently talks about following God in faith, and we read that those who are patient will be able to “inherit the promises” (Hebrews 6:12). In Hebrews ...read more

God’s Grace Will Overcome

Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Mar 6, 2022

Grace can assist us in overcoming life’s problems by helping when all else fails. When we’re at the end of our rope, from struggling and trying everything humanly possible and exhausting our own resources, then grace steps in.

Every time I became frustrated it was because I was trying to do something myself . . . instead of putting my faith in God and receiving His grace. - Joyce Meyer(1) In our message this morning we’re going to look at grace to overcome life’s daily challenges.

Standing For God’s Truth

Contributed by Melvin Maughmer, Jr. on Jan 16, 2023

We live in world of compromise where people are letting go of standards, values, and morals to have recognition, position, titles, clout, and prestige. Society has pushed for the lowering of standards with the so-called premise of improving equality, acceptance, and accessibility.

God’s Comfort In Captivity Series

Contributed by Phillip Smith on Jan 30, 2023

In faith and trust of God, the righteous will find comfort in captivity. Wisdom will be given for those who seek to find it.

God never forsakes his own. Today we will begin to see comfort given to His righteous captives by some prophecies foretold of a physical literal nature of their future; perhaps way into the future until the dispersing of Christians in AD 70, or beyond. Daniel’s comfort lieth in understanding God’s ...read more

Pondering God’s Goodness

Contributed by Richard Tow on May 3, 2021

Quality worship experience is dependent upon biblical principles. This message examines some of those principles as stated in Psalm 65.

We take as our text today, Psalm 65. In the Bible God has given us a healthy spiritual balance of truth. Some portions of Scripture warn and correct. In Psalm 19:7-11 David celebrated this. He wrote, “The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul; The testimony of the Lord is sure, making ...read more
