  • Disciplined Prayer

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on May 10, 2022
     | 1,303 views

    Disciplined prayer is a prayer method that began in the 4th century and is used to quiet the static in our mind, reduce the mental noise and improve the receptivity of our communication with God.

    Tonight we're going to take a look at yet another type of Prayer. This prayer is known as disciplined prayer. I know as we are looking at different types of Prayer you're going to hear a lot of repetition because as I said before, these techniques tend to overlap each other. But think of ...read more

  • The Injustices Of Life

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on May 18, 2022
     | 3,097 views

    Life can throw many hard things at us. We may even be tempted to let our hope in God fade. We want to scream, “Where is the justice?” As we move along a little further in Joseph's life God would want us to be encouraged that he will always see his children through.

    Today I want to talk about the injustices of life. Have you walked through a season when you couldn't seem to catch a break? Did you ever wonder if good days would ever return? Maybe you lost a job around the same time a loved one died. Or you were going through a painful divorce just as ...read more

  • Troubled Times

     | 3,678 views

    In troubled times, rest can be found

    If you were in danger and someone warned you of the fate to come, would you heed the warning or ignore the signs? We are living in times today such as that. We were warned repeatedly they would take place, time and time again. Stated in the word of God, things our forefather's experienced. ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 8,296 views

    The church is God's instrument to glorify Him and build the kingdom. We can only do this if we understand what the church is and what it has been called to do.

    The Church’s Calling 1 Corinthians 1:1-9 In Ephesians 6:12, we read “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” This can be no more evident than it is today, ...read more

  • Five Essentials Of Being An Effective Member In The Body Of Christ

    Contributed by Jerry Flury on Jul 18, 2020
    based on 4 ratings
     | 14,423 views

    Membership in a local church isn't about having your name on the membership rolls, but about being an active participant as a part of the body of believers. Each member of the body must function effectively within the body for God to use us as He would.

    Five Essentials of Being an Effective Member in the Body of Christ Ephesians 4: 7-16 Membership in a local church isn't about having your name on the membership rolls, but about being an active participant as a part of the body of believers. Each member of the body must function effectively ...read more

  • The Call To Fellowship Series

    based on 2 ratings
     | 10,974 views

    Few understand the biblical teaching on fellowship seeing it as a social time. We need to understand what it means to have fellowship with Christ and with His church.

    The Call to Fellowship 1 Corinthians 1:9-10 One of the most troubled churches in apostolic times was the Corinthian Church. They were plagued with a myriad of problems in the church including: divisions, arrogance, sexual immorality, incest, litigation, doctrinal error, abuse of the Lord’s ...read more

  • The Call To Unity Series

     | 10,267 views

    Dwight L. Moody once stated, "I have never yet known the Spirit of God to work where the Lord's people were divided." For God to bless the church, there must be unity.

    The Call to Unity 1 Corinthians 1:10-18 Recently, I read about a church that split, and that split began over an argument at a potluck supper when a lady brought a congealed salad made with Cool Whip instead of real whipping cream. Frank Martin has written a book entitled War in The Pews that ...read more

  • The Call For Church Discipline Series

    Contributed by Jerry Flury on Aug 15, 2020
     | 5,756 views

    There is a hesitancy on the part of many church pastors and elders to hold their church members accountable for their actions. This neglect is hazardous. Church disciple is both biblical and necessary

    The Call for Church Discipline 1 Corinthians 5:1-13 “... Allan Bloom argued in his 1987 best-seller, The Closing of the American Mind [Simon and Schuster], that tolerance, built on the assumption of moral relativism, not truth, has become the chief “virtue” in America. To judge any behavior or ...read more

  • The Elements Of Advent

     | 11,581 views

    This message helps to explain three of the four elements of ADVENT: Love, Joy, and Hope. The final element of Peace will be the topic for the following Sunday.

    As I sat down to put together my thoughts for this sermon, and after praying about it, I looked at the calendar and realized that this is one of those years that there are only 4 Sundays of Advent between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Sometimes there are 5 Sundays but then there are years like 2020 ...read more

    This message is written to help people distinguish the difference between Peace WITH God and the Peace OF God.

    “Behold, church family, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord (Luke 2:10 –11).

    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,199 views

    Sometimes we need to get alone, be still, and listen to God. Then other times we need to put ACTION to our prayers.

    If I asked you what your favorite part of the Sunday morning worship is, I would probably get answers like, “I like the song service, I like the special music, I like the prayer time, and so on. One pastor actually asked some of his congregation that question and one person said it was the prelude ...read more

  • Memorial Service For A Christian Woman

     | 37,663 views

    This was a celebration of the life of a woman who was ready to meet the Lord face-to-face. This person stated she was ready when the Lord called her home.

    When we lose a loved one, we often have questions for God. I know you are hurting today. So, God gives us a word about hurt. Losing a loved one hurts. God understands our hurt and He encourages us to express our hurt to him. Many times, on days like today, we try to deny our hurt or ignore it. ...read more

  • God's Will Versus Our Will

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jan 25, 2021
     | 5,462 views

    Do we have ANY choice or is every aspect of our lives already been predetermined by God? Does God choose us even if we don’t want Him to? Does God choose some people but not others? How can you know what God’s will and purposes are?

    Today I want to talk about God’s Will vs. Our Will. We are taught from the Bible that God gives us a free will. It is ours to choose. Sometimes what we choose is good and in the will of God, and other times what we choose is dead wrong. Maybe this message will answer a few of your questions. ...read more

  • Mothers Day - Motherhood And Mary

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on May 4, 2020
     | 11,405 views

    Even the best mothers are concerned with the conflicting currents flowing through them. I am sure that mothers contend with more of a degree of tension when it comes to being a parent, a mother. Then the Lord brought to mind, Mary, the mother of Jesus.

    Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there. This is your special day. But for some reason, when pastors across the country are asked about their Mother’s Day sermon, the largest consensus admits that a Mother’s Day sermon is the hardest of all sermons to put together. I’m not exempt from that ...read more
