    Specks & Planks

    Contributed by John Gaston on Nov 1, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,911 views

    This begins with a skit. We're supposed to judge ourselves before we judge others, because only then will we have clear enough vision – and humility – to assess other people’s issues are. We end with a look at the Law of Love about relationships.

    SPECKS & PLANKS Mt. 7:1-5 INTRODUCTION A. SKIT [Patient is seated in an optometrist chair. The doctor comes in with a 2X4 board across his eyes.] 1. Doctor: “Hello, I’m Dr. I. C. Faults. You’ve come to the right place. What seems to be the problem?” 2. Patient: “I work in a sawmill and I ...read more

    Persevere For Jesus Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Mar 22, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,870 views

    As a Christian, what would you do if Jesus came to your door? What would you do with Him? Hebrews 12 addresses that issue by telling us things we could do honor Jesus if He knocked on our door and asked to come in.

    OPEN: Back in the 1960s the Beetles were becoming international sensation. Paul McCartney (who became the lead singer for the group) soon learned the downside of fame, as many people would just “drop by” his home and want to visit with him. Not only was it annoying, but he soon realized that many ...read more

    Lo In The Grave He Lay Series

    Contributed by Ken Mckinley on Apr 3, 2025
     | 353 views

    In 1st Corinthians 15 Paul says that the issues of first importance are the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. We hear a lot about the death of Christ, and the resurrection of Christ, but what about the burial? That's what we're looking at today.

    Lo In the Grave He Lay Text: John 19:31-42 Every time I preach I have a couple of goals. First I want to faithfully, and correctly exposit the Word of God. It’s the Word, rightly proclaimed and taught that makes all the difference… Secondly, I always hope and pray that through the preaching of ...read more

    Isa 53: 3 Jesus Was Despised Series

    Contributed by Robert Irvine on Apr 15, 2024
     | 841 views

    In Theology, if something is duplicated in the Bible, we can assume that God is making an effort to get our attention on the issue. So it’s interesting that the word “despised” is repeated twice in this verse. So we can say that God wants us to know that Jesus was despised.

    There is a general rule in Theology that if something is duplicated in the Bible, we can safely assume that God is making a determined effort to get our attention on the issue. And so it’s interesting that the word “despised” is repeated twice in this verse. So we can say that God wants us to face ...read more

    We continue our "Red Letter Series" through the Gospel of Luke by looking at a day in the life of Jesus!

    INTRODUCTION: • Jesus had just talked with the disciples and the people that were gathered around Him about prioritizing God’s work. • He had also explained the necessities of being good ground for the seeds of God’s Word to fall upon. • He encouraged us to “Let our light shine” and then He went ...read more

     | 5,596 views

    Matt 28:19-20 has been dubbed as the “Great Commission” for the Church. In the broad stroke of this text we tend to over look the issue of disciple making. Even though of primary importance of the gospel it to bring people to Jesus. Once a person has gi

    Matt 28:18-20 And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 Go therefore* and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all things that ...read more

    Our Lord didn’t ask for the tempting by Satan, but God ordained it, because it would be proof that He was who He said He was. Satan may have thought that he was forcing the issue and that he was the one in charge, but the power and authority of Christ wou

    Remember, the same issues that Joshua and the Israelites faced we also face. We face change in our lives. We face stress. We face sorrow. When we face these times in our lives, God is commanding us to be strong in our actions and deeds and also to be

    based on 5 ratings
     | 24,423 views

    It interesting that no matter how you love God and how much you remember what he done for you, you still find yourself struggling. Struggling with issues of life, struggling with this thing called our flesh. Yes we love God, but we still struggle.

    It's Hard Out Here For A P.I.M.P. Romans 7:14-24 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. 15 For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I. 16 If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good. ...read more

     | 8,265 views

    Today, we are going to meet someone named Zacchaeus who had the same issues facing him, but made a different decision when meeting Jesus Christ… and to be honest, it is a little shocking. Zacchaeus could stay the way he was or he could make some changes

    The Destroyer, The Army, And The Rebel Or The Bad, The Worse, & The Ugly Series

    Contributed by Ken Henson on Jul 27, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,251 views

    This week we’ll discuss exegetical issues and the context of the last sentence (vv. 20-21), then next week we’ll observe this very disturbing response of the world to the suffering torment created as God’s judgment is poured out on the earth-unrepentance.

    Revelation 9 The Destroyer, the Army, and the Rebel: (The Bad, the Worse, and the Ugly) This morning I wanted to focus on the last sentence of this chapter: The rest of mankind who were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands; they did not stop worshiping ...read more

    A New Body

    Contributed by Jonathan Meyer on Jan 16, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,262 views

    This sermon is the first in a series for January 2017 called "Start Something New." Many focus on body image issues when making New Year's Resolutions. In baptism, we have "put on Christ," and God sees His perfect, sinless Son. THERE'S your new body!

    It’s that time again—time to set lofty goals for yourself. Time to aim high for 2017. Time to dream that you might be one of only 8% of Americans who actually fulfill a new year’s resolution! Year after year, we do this to ourselves…no matter how many times we fall into the 92% failure category. ...read more

    Why I Don’t Drink Any Alcohol (Part 1) Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Feb 6, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,023 views

    Should a Christian drink alcohol in moderation? What is "the whole counsel of God" concerning wine and alcoholic drinks? How does a believer make a scriptural "Risk Assessment" and wise choices about drinking alcohol? This message explores those issues.

    We will step into a controversial subject this morning. For some, this could mean the difference between a fruitful Christian life versus a life that ends in disappointment—a life of unfulfilled potential. It could even mean the difference between life and death for some. That’s why we must address ...read more

    “This message came to my heart concerning the complacency in the Church and how many people allow even the slightest problems to obscure their view of Heaven. Instead, we must see our issues through God's eyes and appreciate our walk with Him."

    How often does God have to wrestle with us, through His word and His Spirit to bring something to our attention? He’ll wrestle with us until we come to the end of ourselves, until we see the issue for what it is, until He is first

    Facing your past with God Genesis 32:1-28 16 March 2025 Last time in our Dust to Life series, we saw how God called Jacob to leave Haran and how Jacob made his peace with his father-in-law Laban.
