Be An Iwitness

Contributed by David Owens on May 9, 2022

Jesus has given the Great Commission to His followers. Sometimes disciples are too intimidated or confused about how to fulfill that commission. This sermon offers a simple model for outreach as God's eyewitnesses.

No Regrets I

Contributed by Jason Jones on Nov 16, 2022

Two fundamental truths that I want to establish before I preach on revival in our month of prayer and fasting: first that revival is “fresh life based on a renewal to closeness to God,” and second, revival presupposes a church with a tainted or languishing intimacy with God.

Background to passage: Paul is talking about a letter that he wrote to confront the church about a sin in the church. In brief, there are two kinds of sorrow/grief in view; godly sorrow vs. worldly sorrow. “The difference between godly grief and worldly grief is that the first issues in repentance ...read more

I Will Not Bow Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 21, 2020

In his final letter, Paul gives his "son in the faith" Timothy a series of charges to ensure that his ministry in Ephesus will be firmly grounded on Jesus Christ and to never bow to the pressures brought on by the world.

My calling to the Lord's service occurred at the same time I gave my life to Him in December of 1975 while I was in high school. Like a lot of new believers, I was ready to share my newfound faith with anybody who would stop to pay attention. I wish I could tell you that my journey with the ...read more

I Am

Contributed by Bishop Johnny Causey on Jul 13, 2021

To often in life, we as a people know everything, not realizing that if we truly took notice to what’s going on around us we would come to the shocking reality that we really don’t know as much as we thought. To put it bluntly, in reference to GOD and the WORD, we don’t know a thing!!

1. I KNOW: If we reflect on the Old Testament, we see that in Jeremiah 1:5 GOD said I knew you before you came from the womb, and that he will know us when we reach the tomb. GOD said that HE knows our thoughts from afar off before we even think them. Psalm 139:2 You see, GOD has known and yet ...read more
