    Contributed by Jenny Franklin on Jan 17, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,659 views

    Many struggle with the concept that sin is sin. Murder, stealing, telling a lie…they are all sin. But how can telling a lie be just as bad as murder?

    ******************* A lot of us struggle with the concept that sin is sin. Murder, stealing, telling a lie… we can all agree that those are sins. But we tend to rate sins and say one sin is worse than another. How can telling a lie be just as bad as murder? There’s a verse in the Bible that ...read more

    Searching For The Everlasting Life

    Contributed by Lonnie Erwin on Feb 5, 2023
     | 2,121 views

    Many live today in public they portray a different persona than when they are alone. He let down his guard. He is searching to fill the emptiness in his life that only can be filled by Jesus.

    John 3:1-17 There was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. 2 This man came to Jesus by night and said to Him, "Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher come from God; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him." 3 Jesus answered and said to him, ...read more

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

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Feb 6, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,873 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

    Being Salt Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jul 31, 2023
     | 2,173 views

    Immediately following the Beatitudes, Jesus turned the instruction from character qualities of his followers to their function in the world as salt and light. Matthew 5:13 warns about failing to function as salt.

    Intro We have found in our study of the Beatitudes that a certain kind of person is blessed (approved and favored by God). This follower of Christ has the same characteristics developed in him that we see in Christ. He is poor in spirit, mournful of anything that does not glorify God, meek, etc. It ...read more

    Jacob dreamed about a ladder reaching to Heaven. Jesus revealed that He is that ladder, that one way to reach God.

    Jacob was a deceiver (Genesis 27). His mother Rebekah came up with a plan. She and Jacob deceived Isaac and stole Esau’s blessing. Esau planned to kill Jacob as soon as their father died. Rebekah heard about Esau’s plan and told Jacob. At Rebekah’s prompting, Issac sent Jacob to Haran to find a ...read more

    Faith Only? Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Aug 25, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,996 views

    Faith is so central to our salvation that there are those who believe believing is the ONLY thing we need to do to be saved. But is that true, and where did that idea come from?

    In my files I have a comment of an economics professor who explained his problem with Jesus. He said, “I really don’t see how Jesus can be the only way to heaven. I definitely believe in God, but there are just too many people in the world who don’t believe in Jesus for me to think that God ...read more

    What Kind Of Loving God Is That? Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 20, 2021
     | 2,000 views

    The story of Abraham's call from God to sacrifice his only son, the son of the promise, can be confusing if we don't see the larger picture of God's love for humans.

    2nd Sunday in Lent 2021 Imagine a young man, maybe eleven or twelve, picking up the Bible and reading this story of Abraham and his only son, Isaac. If he’s read the chapters leading up to this scene, he knows that Abraham and Sarah were promised a son by God, and that after decades of waiting, ...read more

    There is something far more deadly than the venom of a snake which has bitten all. But Jesus becomes the curse for us.

    Just Look at that Snake! Numbers 21:4-9 The Old Testament book of Numbers can be a difficult read. Unlike Leviticus which is hard to read because of all the details of numerous offerings and ritual, Numbers is hard to read because of the constant failures of and judgments on the children of Israel ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,163 views

    If God so loved the world, why are some humans "subject to His wrath." Isn't that contradictory?

    Fourth Sunday in Lent 2021 Today is Laetare Sunday or Rejoice Sunday. The Word of God today gives us some divine ideas to help us understand the clear statement that God loved the world. To understand the reading from 2nd chronicles we have to know something about the Middle East, which has ...read more

    A sermon about the love of God.

    “Like It or Not” John 3:14-21 A friend of mine told me about an experience he had when he was trying to get his then six-year-old son to bed.

     | 3,801 views

    When it was God's turn to save the world, He didn't do like the Marvel Comic superheroes would do it - with super powers and force. Instead, God saved the world through the humility, gentleness, love, and forgiveness of His Son, Jesus.

    GOOD FRIDAY: A STRANGE WAY TO SAVE THE WORLD! JOHN 3:16-17 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A 6th grade S.S. class discussed how old Isaac was when he was sacrificed. 2.
