Happy New Year…maybe!

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 23, 2022

I want to wish each of you a HAPPY NEW YEAR! But my wishing you a HAPPY NEW YEAR is not a gurantee that you will have one.

What will guarantee you a HAPPY NEW YEAR is the things I want to share with you from God’s Word.

The Prophet Jeremiah 1 Of 2

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 27, 2022

The prophets are unique, in that God chose to use them differently.

Every preacher has to be WHO HE IS if he is going to be effective for the Lord. If he tries to be like someone else, he is going to be ineffective. God is a God of variety: • Cloud formations are different • Trees are different • Flowers are different • Birds are different • The fish in the sea ...read more

Revival Fires!

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 29, 2022

I guess you heard about the two fellows out on a hot sunny day. One of them complained, "I am hot, let's find a place to cool off." The other one said, "Yea, me too! Where do you want to go?"

The grumbler said, "Well, the coldest place I know of is the church down the street, let's go there..." Now, that has been told as a joke on many occasions, but all the humor is drained from it, because it is the truth in many cases. Beloved, God never meant for His church to be a ...read more

The Zealot Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on May 8, 2022

You Are The Salt Of The Earth Series

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on May 23, 2022

Jesus calls us to be the salt - the preservative - of the earth. He warns us against losing our sense of mission. Or, considering the Greek, perhaps he is warning us against being pushed off course. But either way, his message is: stick with it.

Today, after a bit of a break, we’re returning to Jesus’ longest recorded sermon, the Sermon on the Mount. Can you remember how Jesus starts his sermon? What was his first WORD? Jesus’ first word is ‘blessed’. ‘Blessed’ means happy or fortunate. Jesus wants us to be blessed. He is going to ...read more

Grace From Galatians! (13 Of 19)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 8, 2022

This is the FIFTH APPEAL that Paul used to try and bring these Galatians to their spiritual senses. He is hoping they will reach a sensible solution to their problems.

But anytime you work with people and try to get them to arrive at the right conclusion, you find it is a difficult task to say the least. Some folks will go years and years making the same mistakes and getting the same results. It never seems to dawn on them that perhaps they are doing something ...read more

Thermometer Or Thermostat: Which Are You?

Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 9, 2022

A thermometer tells how hot or cold something or someone is. It doesn’t try to change its environment. A thermostat, on the other hand, alters the temperature. Christians should be thermostats, changing their neighborhoods, families, work, etc.

THERMOMETER OR THERMOSTAT: WHICH ARE YOU? Mt. 5:16 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A Pastor told one of his faithful church members, “Mrs. Smith, I appreciate your devotion. You are present at all the services!” 2. Mrs. Smith: “Yes, it’s such a relief, at the end of a long, hard week, to come to ...read more
