MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK I think that there is nothing more exciting than discovering what God is doing in our world today. But I don't want just to hear about what God is doing, or to read about it in some ...read more

The Gospel. Part 4: What Happens If We Reject Jesus?

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Nov 24, 2020

Without Jesus in our lives, sin takes hold; weeds start to grow up in the garden of our lives. But the consequences for eternity are much more serious. However, does scripture really lead us to expect the 'pains of hell for ever'?

Today we have the fourth and last talk in my series on the gospel. We’re thinking about the question, ‘What happens if we reject Jesus?’ Quite a ...read more

Growth Is Success Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 6, 2021

Paul is not scolding the Corinthian Christians because they are immature babes in Christ. That would be as foolish as scolding a baby for not being a man. It is not only legitimate, it is absolutely essential that churches have immature babes.

Psalm 136 (Kjv) Title: His Loving Kindness Endures Forever Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jun 26, 2020

The theme of this psalm isT “mercy’s vast unfathomable sea.” God’s love is deeper, far deeper than that. The psalmist looks first at God’s goodness manifested in His “mercy.” The word for mercy is the usual word for grace or lovingkindness. That “mercy endures forever.”

3/25/20 Tom Lowe Psalm 136 (KJV) 1O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth forever. 2O give thanks unto the God of gods: for his mercy endureth forever. 3O give thanks to the Lord of lords: for his mercy endureth for ever. 4To him who alone doeth great wonders: ...read more

The Sifting Of The Saints

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 25, 2022

This passage of scripture has to do with the “sifting” of the saints. Before we can fully appreciate what this passage is teaching, we have to know something about sifting.

Illus: Some of the older women in this congregation can remember when years ago they had a “sifter” in their kitchen. This was something they could hold with one hand, and use the other hand to turn a handle that rotated a wire wheel inside the sifter basket. As they prepared a meal for their ...read more

If You Can’t Stand The Heat…

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 28, 2022

We live in the day of change! The world we live in is not the world into which we were born.
