    The Younger Women

    based on 1 rating
     | 9,151 views

    Not women only, but all who are placed in the congregation of the Lord, are called to consider how to live so as to honour God.

    “As for you, teach what accords with sound doctrine. Older men are to be sober-minded, dignified, self-controlled, sound in faith, in love, and in steadfastness. Older women likewise are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers or slaves to much wine. They are to teach what is good, and so ...read more

    Chameleons! Series

    Contributed by Bala Samson on May 27, 2013
     | 4,291 views

    Did you know Chameleons shoot their tongue further than the length of their body to catch insects? In much the same way, people shoot out their tongue to bombard you with insults, curses, faults and false accusation.

    Genesis 31:1 Now Jacob heard the words of Laban's sons, saying, "Jacob has taken away all that was our father's, and from what was our father's he has acquired all this wealth." Did you know Chameleons shoot their tongue further than the length of their body to catch insects? In much the same way, ...read more

    This is the eighth message in a series over Romans 6-11. The series examines how we now live under God's grace. This message looks at how everything is under God's control.

    Introduction: A little girl who was riding along on her bike when she bumped her head on the low hanging branch of a tree. She ran into the house hollering, "Mom! Mom, Joey hurt me!" Mom looked up from what she was doing and said, "Sissy, Joey didn’t hurt you. Joey’s not even here. He ...read more

    Gentleness

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Oct 3, 2013
     | 4,183 views

    I must say this, today there is a sadistic and egoistic pleasure in being snobby, overbearing, rude and curt? We have just forgotten to be kind, gentle and pleasant!

    Gentleness… Acts 11:2’And when Peter came up to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision contended with him…’ It is sad that many are skeptical about fasting! Let us not do fasting as a ritual or a religious custom like many do these days without any change in them. Are you ...read more

    Slip Of The Tongue

     | 3,105 views

    We use our tongue everyday, but how well do we use it.

    Paul has talked about lying, anger, work, giving, and now he is going to talk about words, all these things are practical things, things we deal with everyday, Paul is going to show us how to deal with them in the correct way!! Ephesians 4:29-Let no corrupt word proceed ...read more

     | 5,310 views

    When criticism is leveled toward you, your best response is gentleness. That is strength under control.

    This week has been a bit stressful for me. We have had some unrest in our church body. Some negative comments have been made. We have lost a major player in our worship team along with his family. I, as the pastor, was taking the heat for things I really could not understand. However, I want you to ...read more

    The author of this book, James is saying the tongue, though it be very small, is very Powerful, and very influential, and therefore the Tongue should be handled with care

    TITLE: THE MEANEST MEMBER IN OUR CHURCH SCRIPTURE: JAMES 3:4-5 This morning I want to talk to us about The Meanest member in our Church. There are some members we talk about and say “OH AREN’T THEY SWEET” - others we talk about and say “OH AREN’T THEY CUTE” ...read more

    We might not feel comfortable sharing our faith, but let's make sure that we don't sabotage those who do.

    If there is one word that strikes fear in the hearts of most church goers it is “evangelism”. Most of us understand the necessity of people meeting Jesus. All but the most callous are heartbroken at the thoughts of friends and loved ones spending an eternity far from God. And yet. . ...read more

    Oh Be Careful Little Tongues What You Say!

    Contributed by Victor Ramlall on Jun 6, 2014
     | 5,660 views

    The control of of the tongue is the vital to the health and well being of the whole man, and what we say should not be treated lightly. With the Holy Spirit in control, our words can bring healing, health and life, rather death and destruction!

    Little insignificant-looking things affect big things Insignificant, seemingly harmless things, can cause great destruction and damage. Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes. Song of Solomon 2:15 KJV Mouth worries does not remain in the mouth ...read more

    Conquer Anger!

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Jul 8, 2014
     | 3,102 views

    The way to conquer anger is to be conscious of it. Unless you are convicted in that area, you can never overcome the habit.

    Conquer anger! Ecclesiastes 7:9 “Do not hasten in your spirit to be angry, For anger rests in the bosom of fools.” Do you use expletives, bark orders, scream, retort sharply and behave rudely? Do you mock, criticize and yell at cleaners, drivers and helpers? Do you always find ...read more

    Use Your Mouth Wash

    Contributed by Mark H. Stevens Thd on Aug 2, 2016
     | 5,049 views

    Chapter three comes as a warning on the use of the tongue and particular, the use of the gift to teach. James provides a twofold warning: (1) the teacher will be under greater scrutiny from God; and (2) the primary teaching tool is the tongue which must be under the control of the Holy Spirit.

    I. A Warning To Teachers - vs.1 Notice To Whom The Warning Was Designed - vs.1a ...My brethren... Notice What The Warning Declared - vs.1b ...be not many masters...

    An entertaining sermon based on a great clip from a classic Christmas movie. It is about the tongue getting us in trouble.

    Hung by the Tongue James 3:1-12 Start with video clip from “A Christmas Story” There is no doubt that our tongue can get us in trouble. Maybe not stuck to a flagpole... but our words have often gotten us into jams we could not get out of...RIGHT???? That is what James had in mind ...read more

    The Sovereignty Of God Series

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Mar 8, 2015

    God’s the infinite Ruler of all; He is “running the show.” Nothing can prevent His predetermined plan. Nothing takes Him by surprise. Those who see God’s hand in everything can best leave everything in God’s hand.

    It’s been said, “How do you make God laugh? Tell Him your plans” (G.K. Chesterton). Our plans aren’t always in line with God’s. We may try to fight God’s will, but someone pointed out, “Your arms are too short to box with God” (J. W. Johnson). The ...read more

    The Spirit Of Fear

    Contributed by Brian Harrell on Dec 19, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 9,192 views

    We all deal with fear on some level. We must take on fear directly in the name of Jesus. Based on 2 Tim. 1:5-7. No more cowering to fear.

    I love going to Summersville Lake. One of the highlights of the lake is all of the rocky ledges that you can climb up on and then jump into the water. The two or three footers are pretty easy. The eight footers will give you a pause before you take the leap. But it was when several of us climbed up ...read more
