    Contributed by Elmer Towns on Jul 18, 2023
     | 1,284 views

    A doubter makes decisions – not on intellect or emotions – but on their inner negative nature.

    A. WHO WAS THOMAS 1. Thomas was listed both 7th and 8th among disciples (Matthew 10:2-4; Mark 3:16-19; Luke 6:14-16). THOMAS – THREE NICKNAMES • Had a twin brother. Didymas means ditto, or duplicate, i.e., perhaps an identical twin (John 20:24). • Was from the tribe of Judah, or that was his ...read more

    Abraham Chased Faith And Found God's Promise Lesson 4 Series

    Contributed by Elmer Towns on Jul 27, 2023
     | 932 views

    Don’t look at the size of your giants, or the size of your faith, rather look at the size of your God.

    A. INTRODUCTION: GOD CALLED ABRAHAM “By obedient faith, Abraham left his home in Ur, when God called him to go see another country that God would give him as his inheritance. Abraham went without knowing where he was going.” Hebrews 11:8, ELT 1. In Babylon God ...read more

    Doubting Abraham

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Mar 28, 2023
     | 2,049 views

    It is not the size of our faith that matters, it is the infinite faithfulness of God - who gives us faith enough to ask.

    What is faith? The writer to the Hebrews gives us the definition in just a few simple words: “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.” [Heb 11:1] And then he goes on to list, one after another, the heroes of the faith. Abel, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Samuel, ...read more

    Abram's Belief For Our Benefit Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on May 2, 2023
     | 1,055 views

    Abram's response to God offers us several questions to consider: Do we follow God’s calling as He leads us? Do we take time to reflect on what God has done? Do we follow God obediently? And, do we allow ourselves to be centered to God’s will and calling?

    Alpha and Omega, Part 17 Abram’s Belief for our Benefit Genesis 12:1-9 (focus on vv.4-9) Introduction - 2023 has been led with “one purpose”: To know there is a God! -- Continuing our series, “Alpha and Omega”; examining the beginning to the end - Last week we saw our lead into God’s ...read more

    Searching For Home

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 18, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 7,124 views

    For many people, life seems dissatisfying. They are actually searching for home; but our true home is in heaven. Until we reach heaven, Jesus is our home. This is the expanded version of a funeral sermon I did called "Looking for Home."

    Some say, “Home is where the heart is.” What is home? John Ed Pearce, long-time writer for the Courier-Journal, stated, “Home is a place you grow up wanting to leave, and grow old wanting to get back to.” I’ve entitled our message this morning, “Searching for Home,” and I’m addressing this topic ...read more

    Abraham

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Apr 19, 2022
     | 2,156 views

    Why was Abram’s name changed to Abraham? Why is he called father Abraham? Let’s look at Genesis 12-25 and the life of a patriarch of our faith.

    A study of the patriarchs and matriarchs reveals that they were very imperfect people, but blessed by God because of faith. This should be an encouragement to us who are likewise very imperfect, but trust in God. Why was Abram’s name changed to Abraham? Why is he called father Abraham? Let’s look ...read more

    The substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

    NOW FAITH IS. Hebrews 11:1-3, Hebrews 11:8-16. This chapter follows on from the quotation of Habakkuk 2:4 in Hebrews 10:38a: ‘the just shall live by faith’ (see also Romans 1:17; Galatians 3:11). “Now faith is,” continues Hebrews 11:1. The first thing that we learn about faith is that ...read more

    As we remember and honor our military veterans, let’s also consider three godly biblical veterans who have fought the war of faith - Enoch, Noah, & Abraham.

    MELVIN NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK TEXT: Hebrews 11:5-9; Romans 13:7; Genesis 12:1-4 (A big part of the body and some illustrations in this sermon were adapted from a fine sermon by Steve Shepherd, “Veterans of War” that ...read more

    <The owl commercial launches the message> Did you know that that commercial is almost 50 years old? It’s memorable. It points to a question, provides a practical experiment and even an answer.

    This is a reality check. When you're surprised by the challenges of the Christian life and even tempted to quit, consider how the people who are part of Faith's Hall of Fame lived.

    This past week we all heard about another horrific tragedy on the border. Three people died and 25 were injured as smugglers attempted to bring dozens of illegal immigrants into the U.S. via boat along the California Coast. The 40-foot boat broke up on a reef just west of Point Loma off the San ...read more

    Inconvenient Christmas

    This seems like an adequate description of Christmas this year. Well, our original Christmas family had to deal with some inconveniences surrounding that first Christmas. Let's see how they handled them all.

    INCONVENIENT CHRISTMAS This seems like an adequate description of Christmas this year.

    The Two Faces Of Faith: Triumph And Trial

     | 11,655 views

    It’s easy to trust God when the sea is parting, when the walls of Jericho are falling, when His voice is clearly coming through to our spirit. But what about those days when God is silent? Discovering both sides of Faith!

    There is a faith receives what it believes, and a faith that believes beyond what it receives. Text: Hebrews 11:13-16 "These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers ...read more

    To hope is be human. Our problem is not the absence or lack of hope but what we put our hope in. The goal of this sermon series that I’m doing is to take you on a journey through a book filled with hope. That book is the … the Bible!

    Some of us … [clear throat] … are old enough to remember this song. It goes like this [start song]: “The next time you’re found with your chin on the ground… “There’s a lot to be learned … so look around. “Just what makes that little old ant think He’ll move that rubber tree plant?
