    Completely (Part Two)

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Aug 29, 2021
     | 1,886 views

    Last week we talked about having complete joy, complete unity and completing the task. Today we conclude by looking at how God's love is made complete in us, having complete faith and being complete Christians.

    COMPLETELY (part two) Last week we talked about having complete joy, complete unity and completing the task. There's joy and then there's complete joy-the joy that is constant and not temporary; the joy that is there despite my circumstances. In John 15, Jesus communicated his love for ...read more

    11 - James 5:13-20 Series

    Contributed by Michael Collins on Sep 1, 2021
     | 2,513 views

    This is the 11th of 11 Studies on the Book of James, and in this Study, James gives some very practical responses to various circumstances we might find ourselves in - suffering, cheerful or ill.

    James 5:13-16 13 Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing psalms. 14 Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. 15 And the prayer of faith will save the sick, ...read more

    James - A Faith That Works (2021) Series

    Contributed by David Owens on May 31, 2021
     | 5,727 views

    In this introductory sermon for a series on the Book of James, we explore two questions: who is the author and who are the recipients. The sermon also drives home the point that we must be doers of the Word of God and not hearers only.

    Introduction: A. One day, a couple of weeks before Christmas in the mid1980s, I was driving on the back roads of Arkansas from El Dorado, Arkansas to Memphis, TN. 1. I was on my way to take my graduate class finals and I was running late. 2. I set the cruise control about 8 miles over the speed ...read more

    Turing Trials Into Triumphs Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Jun 7, 2021
     | 6,198 views

    The first subject that James addresses in his letter is how to face our trials. His suggestion is shocking: we should welcome our trials with joy. But his reason for the suggestion makes sense when you understand things from God's perspective.

    A. In Max Lucado’s book, In The Eye Of The Storm, he tells a story about a parakeet named Chippie. 1. Chippie the parakeet never saw it coming -one second he was peacefully perched in his cage, and the next he was sucked in, washed up and blown over. 2. The problem began when Chippie’s owner ...read more

     | 12,160 views

    This sermon is going to review the story of the children of Israel at the Red Sea in order to show that while many battles in life cannot be won through our own effort, God is more than capable and willing to secure our victory if only we would stand still and let Him fight for us!

    One of the hardest questions to find answers to is why do Christians have trouble in their life?

    1. One of the hardest questions to find answers to is why do Christians have trouble in their life? 2. A word of caution, judge not. John 9:1-3 a. Who sinned? b. Why the birth defects? 3.

    Some believe godly living, great faith and positive thinking will exempt them from trials. How do you respond when you are living your best, walking by faith, serving God and the bottom falls out? We respond in Faith!

    Isa 38:1 “In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death.

    The Book Of James: A Gut Punch For Christian Hypocrisy

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Sep 24, 2021
     | 3,357 views

    I’ve heard the book of James described as a gut punch to Christians. I like that. The book of James, written by Jesus’ brother, somebody who grew up with Jesus, and saw Jesus’ during his whole ministry, writes to us, challenging us to really practice what we believe.

    The Refiner and Purifier of silver

    September 25, 2021 We have arrived at the end of the Old Testament. We know nothing about the man, “Malachi” or the specific dates of his ministry. We do, however, get some clues from the text: The use of “governor” instead of “king” in Ch. 1:8 and references to the Temple being up and ...read more

    Part one of a four part sermon series on guarding our thoughts and bringing them captive to obedience to Christ

    It has been argued, we are the sum of our thoughts. Every action begins as a thought, so a person's thought-life is very important. We will often rationalize bad thoughts by saying, “Well, I didn't do it, I just thought about it.” Well, there are two levels to thinking about it, one is ...read more

    Disguised: Feeling Trapped In This Trial.

     | 1,965 views

    Often blessings come disguised as trials and problems. Life is not just how you are building. Life can be about what you are building. This problem and trial could be a disguised blessing. The victory opportunity is before you. Check your motives.

    Joy In Trials?!

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Feb 18, 2022
     | 2,668 views

    The idea that we could find joy in trials seems very strange. But it makes sense - and it could radically change the way we respond to the trials that inevitably come.

    We’ve now reached the last in our series of ‘Messages of Encouragement’. And we’ve come to a very difficult piece of teaching! ‘James’ – whoever James may be – tells us TO CONSIDER IT PURE JOY WHENEVER WE FACE TRIALS OF MANY KINDS! Wow! That sounds crazy! How can we understand it? The general ...read more

    Now is the time to look back over the past two years of the pandemic and see where God was clearly present and at work. It is also an important time for us to look at ourselves and how we reacted to this time of crisis and testing

    Several years ago (2009), Louis C.K. was on Conan O’Brien’s late-night talk show, where he described today’s entitlement culture. He said in our culture, “Everything's Amazing and Nobody's Happy.” Take a look (show Louis CK video). Louis talks about how he was on a plane that offered ...read more

    Trials And Temptations

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024

    God tested the Israelites in the desert to know what was in their hearts, and tested Abraham’s faith by asking him to sacrifice Isaac. God allows external hardships or difficult situations produce good qualities in us.

    Opening illustration: Illustrate the difference between Temptation and Trial. Introduction: In the New Testament, the same Greek word (peirazo) is used for trial, test, and temptation. The basic meaning of peirazo is to test something to determine its response, value, or character. When peirazo is ...read more
