David’s fight against the temptation of revenge produced positive three consequences we should all come to when today’s temptation is to put ourselves out in front of God’s will and get even with people.

Today’s Temptation, Tomorrow’s Triumph 1 Samuel 24 Did you ever get in a fight when you were a kid? I mean a real fight, with fists and blood and crying. I did. More than once. Being small meant I got picked on more than once, so I became a scrapper and a bully sometimes just to ...read more

Marijuana Use: Willingly Walking Into Bondage

Contributed by Terry Frazier on Feb 1, 2014

What's really behind the movement in America to legalize marijuana? Why do we want to sanction people being put into bondage to a substance and in a broader sense sin? This is very troubling as Christians seem to be having a hard time standing against sin

A couple of weeks ago I preached a message on the Christian views on legalizing marijuana in America. If you’ll recall, I wasn’t very supportive of the idea. The notion that we can legalize sin and somehow make state sanctioning of sin a good thing despite the fact that legalizing ...read more

Watch Your Step Series

Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Aug 25, 2011

Often we Christians believe that we are so insulated against evil that we do not need to be isolated from evil. Everything the Bible says is opposed to such a view. The people and the activities we are involved with can hurt us and cause us to fall.

PROVERBS 4:10-19 WATCH YOUR STEP [Jude 24, 25] A sign on the entrance to the IRS office read, "Watch your step." A sign on the exit read, "Watch your language." Two good pieces of advice! The first warning is especially appropriate, for as we walk through life, it is easy to stumble and ...read more

"fan Or Follower?" Series

Contributed by David Henderson on Jun 1, 2015

There are two groups and we have to decide which one we are going to be. There are fans and there are followers. Here’s the difference. Fans only follow when you are popular. Once you make one wrong move they turn against you.

Developing A Personal Walk With God

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Oct 22, 2017

In Moses' frank conversation with God, we learn to pray for those who rebel against God, hunger for the presence of God, long for more of God, and shine with the light of God. As we seek after God, God will reveal more of himself to us.

Exodus 33:12-23 Developing a Personal Walk with God Today’s conversation between Moses and God is pretty gutsy. Moses seems very comfortable with God, even to challenge God: “You don’t go with us, we don’t go!” Moses is praying real prayers here, nothing held back. And what is even more amazing ...read more
