    Strength out of weakness, sounds a little impossible doesn’t it? How can something that makes us weak cause us to be strong? For when I am weak, then I am strong. How do we apply this in our own lives today? How can our weaknesses strengthen us?

    Our Weaknesses Can Strengthen Us Strength out of weakness, sounds a little impossible doesn’t it? How can something that makes us weak cause us to be strong? It sounds like a paradox, strength out of weakness, it is a phrase that at first may not seem to make a lot of sense, many in the world ...read more

    The prophet Malachi wrote that the Lord would send his messenger of the covenant, and asks, "who can stand when he appears? For he is like a refiner's fire and like fullers' soap." What is the answer to Malachi's question?

    THE REFINER’S FIRE Malachi 3:1-6 I. Introduction – Malachi says that at his appearing Jesus will be like a refiner’s fire, or launderer’s soap. The Israelites had a question, not unlike a question we might ask. Our main text is in answer to a question from the Israelites: Mal 2:17 - You have ...read more

    Jesus Is...! Hebrews 12:4-11 October 1, 2017 I really love what former Dallas Cowboys coach Tom Landry once said about his football players, he said, “The job of a coach is to make players do what they don't want to do, in order to achieve what they've always wanted to be."

    Godly Contentment Is The Way To Go

    Contributed by Pastor Randall Timblin on Oct 30, 2017
     | 4,183 views

    How can we achieve 'Godly Contentment' vs what the World has to offer in its stead.

    To be content means that one is Happy. Happiness is a state of one’s being when things around them are going as expected or well in the person’s opinion. It can be a sense of satisfaction or fulfillment, however fleeting. Our environment is temporal at most—always changing—fluid in nature. If ...read more

    Our Fathers' Chastening

    A Father's Day message in which we discover the blessing of our Heavenly Father's (and earthly father's) "chastening" or discipline. (This sermon is in "outline form." You will need to reformat the layout because of the way it appears on this site.)

    Our Fathers’ Chastening June 19, 2016 - When I was growing up, I could ALWAYS count on my parents to discipline me when I needed it, because they loved me > If my parents disciplined me because they loved me, it makes sense that, because of His love for me, God will discipline me when ...read more

    Do You Let God Love You? Then You’ll Love His Chastenings

    Contributed by David Leach on May 28, 2014
     | 3,256 views

    It is very easy to grieve the Spirit of God; we do it by despising the chastening of the Lord, or by becoming discouraged when He rebukes us.

    Do you let God love you? Then you’ll love His chastenings Heb 12:5-10 And have you quite forgotten the encouraging words God spoke to you, His child? "My son, do not despise the chastening of the LORD, nor be discouraged when you are rebuked by Him; For whom the LORD loves He ...read more

    So, let's take a little pressure off from the Mom's today and take a look at the responsibility of the child to follow the leading of the mother. This of course is a parallel to God the Father and our response as children of the Most High God!

    Mother’s Day … God Disciplines His Children Hebrews 12:4-13 “In your struggle against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood. And have you completely forgotten this word of encouragement that addresses you as a father addresses his son? “It ...read more

    When you look for Father’s Day cards you tend to see two general types. There are the golf, BBQ, sailboat and classic card variety with some general thanks to dad. Then, there are the humorous type that usually poke fun at him. The one card you never seem to see, is the one thanking dad for ...read more

    When God brings us into His kingdom through faith in Christ we become His son or daughter. Because He loves us so much and wants the best for our lives He sometimes brings discipline to us. The fact that we are corrected by our Father is proof

    Spiritual Discipline For The Race Of Life

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Sep 1, 2015
     | 5,725 views

    We must learn to lay everything aside and renew our fellowship and communion with God. We must “keep our eyes on the prize.” We must keep our eyes fixed on Christ. We must pace ourselves when we run the race of life. Only then can we survive and win.

    Have you ever struggled with your faith? Have you ever felt like giving up? If so, the writer of the Letter to the Hebrews has a word for you---don’t! Don’t give up. The road of faith has been compared to a race. The race is not a sprint. It is a marathon. At the end of the race, we ...read more
