    Faith-Running To Jesus Lesson 1 Series

    Contributed by Elmer Towns on Jul 28, 2023
     | 1,309 views

    It is not our great faith in God, it is our faith in a great God.

    INTRODUCTION “The Bible tells us of “faith-chasers” who surround us like a cloud. So let us lay aside any weight that slows us down, and any sin that entangles us, so we can run with endurance as “faith-chasers” the race before us, looking to Jesus our pace-setter who first gave us faith and ...read more

    To be a great leader you must first become a great follower.

    Follow the Leader” John 12:20-26 It was John Maxwell who gave us this very simple definition of what a leader is. He said a leader is someone who has followers. And here is the way he puts it…if you believe you are a leader and you turn around and no one is following you, then ...read more

    Real Fellowship Series

    Contributed by Jim Drake on Feb 20, 2010
    based on 6 ratings
     | 12,022 views

    What does the word “fellowship” bring to your mind? Do you think of coffee or fried chicken or church socials? Paul had a wonderful fellowship with the Philippian church that didn’t have anything to do with any of those.

    I love our times of fellowship, don’t you? We joke all the time about how much Baptists love to eat, but I think that one of the reasons we like to eat so much is because of the fellowship that goes along with it. Those times are wonderful and I wouldn’t trade anything in the world ...read more

    1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 it says: Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus. Easier read than lived isn’t it.

    DO YOU EVER HAVE ONE OF THOSE DAYS? Do you ever have you ‘one of those’ days? You know the type of day I mean. One of those days when you could have a lie in and the postman gets you out of bed at 7am. Or one of those days when you sleep through your alarm and wake up 5 minutes after you ...read more

    For The Lord Watches Over The Way Of The Righteous

    based on 1 rating
     | 10,256 views

    Developing and nurturing a defeatist attitude is something that we can’t afford to do. We can’t develop and nurture a defeated mind, because to do so will stop us from seeing and appreciating the blessings that God pours out upon His people.

    Seeing what’s happening around us, in other words, the conflicts and wars in the Middle East; the financial problems in Europe; and the financial problems here in the U.S., where the government is at the brink of a shut down, unemployment continues to grow, and foreclosures continue to ...read more

     | 2,825 views

    The Grinch was right, Christmas is not only about presents, but also about God’s gift of His son bringing, light, life and joy into the world. Today, I want to talk about the most hateful character of the Christmas story. Let’s look at Christmas from a different viewpoint.

    Sermon: The Most Hateful Character in the Christmas Story Scripture Lesson: Matthew 2:1-12."Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the reign of King Herod. About that time some wise men from eastern lands arrived in Jerusalem, asking, 2 “Where is the newborn king of the Jews? We saw his ...read more

    Jesus Makes Me Happy

    Be content and happy with what you have in Christ. You can be genuinely happy!

    I have a question for you today. Are you really happy? I mean are you actually truly and honestly happy with your life. Maybe I should define the term happiness. Happiness is not the feeling you get when you get something. For instance, how many of you did the after thanksgiving shopping day? You ...read more

    How To Be Blessed Beyond Measure

    based on 5 ratings
     | 22,717 views

    This message explains why we do not have blessings or joy in our lives and how we go about getting those blessings from God. To do so, we use the passage found in PSALM 1:1-6 as our main authority.

    My father used to tell us boys that everyone has someone who is in authority over them. He said that every soldier has a sergeant; every worker has a foreman; and then with a wink, he would add, “And every husband has a wife.” And even though he was joking when he said that, he ...read more
