    Today we’re here to worship the Lord & honor mothers. Not only are we commanded to honor our mothers & fathers; it’s also the sensible & loving thing to do. Many of us wish our mothers were alive so we could express our love to them once again.

    MELVIN NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK TEXT: Ephesians 6:1-3; Proverbs 17:22, 31:10-31 ILL. Six-year-old Johnny & his 4-year-old sister Suzy ...read more

    Bible Friendship (Friend’s Day)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 19, 2022
     | 3,487 views

    Look at Prov. 27:5, we read, “Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.”

    Also look at Prov. 27:9-10 “Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart: so doth the sweetness of a man's friend by hearty counsel. Thine own friend, and thy father's friend, forsake not; neither go into thy brother's house in the day of thy calamity: for better is a neighbour that is near ...read more

     | 2,593 views

    The Children of Israel had been told by the LORD to go up and possess the land that God had promised to Abraham and his descendants. DID THEY DO IT? We need to look at three things, Let’s look at-

    I. THE REPORTS Before going in and actually possessing the land, God told the Children of Israel to send in 12 spies to search out the land. Once they spied out the land, they were to come back and give a report on what they had found. Look at Numbers 13:1-2 “And the LORD spake unto Moses, ...read more

    The second half of Romans 3 gives us a crash course in theological vocabulary, and the most important paragraph in the Bible.

    Good morning! Please turn to Romans 3. We are going to pick up where we left off last week. Last week we talked about the Grand Finale of Paul’s argument that no one is righteous before God. And I realize that it’s a hard thing for people to accept, that there’s nothing we can do to earn our ...read more

     | 2,874 views

    King David had a lot of problems and so do we. Many times there are things we can do to correct the problems we encounter. For example:

    (1) SOME HAVE HEALTH PROBLEMS This is a wonderful age in which we live. We hear of some folks who have vision problems. They go to the doctor for some out-patient surgery, and in a few weeks they have 20-20 vision again. Illus: I heard about an elderly retired gentleman that had severe hearing ...read more

    Attitudes In The Life Of Jonah

     | 2,128 views

    Some people describe others by saying, “They have an attitude problem.” Listen, on any given day that could be said of any of us.

    Illus: There used to be a song that some churches in the South liked to sing called, “I woke up this morning feeling fine! I woke up with heaven on my mind.” But I have a confession, sometimes I wake up and I am not feeling fine, and I certainly do not have heaven on my mind. Generally, when we ...read more

    Children are different in many ways, but almost always they are alike in one way.

    • You tell a child to do something and invariably they will say, “why” ? • You tell a child not to do something and invariably they will say “why”? One of the reasons it annoys us as parents when our children do this, is because sometimes we know they should do something, but we do not always ...read more

     | 4,769 views

    This message looks at how our heart is like soil into which the gospel is planted, and we must be certain that our soil is fertile and ready to receive the Word. Otherwise, we will wither in our relationship with God; or worse, we will perish.

    I have entitled our message, “Where Do You Stand?” This morning, as we look at what’s called the “Parable of the Sower,” we’re going to see how Jesus talks about four different soils, or four different types of spiritual ground, on which people may stand in relation to God. Something challenging ...read more

    Notice, this verse starts off with the word, “Beware.” Any time we see the word “Beware” we need to pay attention!

    Illus: If you are an insurance salesman and you drive up to a home that has a large sign on the gate of the fence that says, “Beware of bad dog”, you can not blame the owner if this vicious dog tries to eat your leg off before you get to the car. Life is filled with many things to BEWARE ...read more

    Bible Study 2 Corinthians 12:9-10

    This study was personal to me because I know what it's like to be weak. I survived a traumatic brain injury in 2006 & was in rehab for a couple years. God used that event to bring my life in accordance with His will.

    The format I use for Bible studies comes from one of the study Bibles I have. That Bible has worksheets in it for you to study scripture using the H.E.A.R format. That is Highlight-Explain-Apply-Respond. Highlight is the verse to study. Explain & Apply are pretty self explanatory. Respond is ...read more

     | 4,363 views

    Looking at the story of Naaman the Leper from the Old Testament, we’ll examine what the world cannot do, and what humanity cannot heal, but Jesus can, as He forgives our sins and heals our relationship with God, bringing us back into harmony and unity with Him.

    The Disease Humanity Can’t Cure 2 Kings 5 WATCH: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikQdDgOgoSk With all our scientific and medical advancements and breakthroughs there still exists a disease that humanity cannot find a cure for.

    Melchizedek was one of those puzzling people in the Bible who appears only briefly but is mentioned again as an example of holiness and righteous living.

    Higher priesthood of Melchizedek Let us dive into his biblical story and relevance for Christians today! Who was Melchizedek, mentioned in the Old and New Testaments? How was he a priest of God Most High? Why did Abram (Abraham) give him a tithe? Melchizedek Higher Priesthood of Melchizedek ...read more

     | 1,632 views

    I want to preach about what many believe is the number one problem in many homes today…THAT IS COMMUNICATION.

    If you do the research most marriage counselors will tell you that 85% of the problems they deal with in marriages today has to do with communication. Some believe the reason for the problem with communication has to do with the difference between the male and female brain. Illus: Did you hear ...read more

    Have you ever wondered why God is so good to lost people when they do not reciprocate in their feelings toward Him?

    Illus: Perhaps the answer can be illustrated by the story of the little girl who went to her mother to show her some fruit her friend gave her. The mother said, “Your friend has been very kind.” “Yes,” said the child, “She gave me more; but I gave some away.” When her mother asked who she gave ...read more

    The Psalm is about the mighty hand of God in protection and the Help for us in any form of trouble. In tumult God is with us, though Jerusalem is in view. God is the Victor so Jerusalem, and we should stop striving and rest in faith knowing the Lord is God.

    Psalm 46 - Psalm of the Sons of Korah Psalm 46 For the choir director. A Psalm of the sons of Korah, set to Alamoth. A Song.
