Contributed by Bryan Beverly on Mar 5, 2015

This message is designed to cause us to reflect upon whether we are asking and allowing God to direct our lives.

As human beings, we share a common desire; that desire is to be in charge of our lives. Consider the lyrics shared by Lesley Gore: You don't own me, I'm not just one of your many toys; You don't own me, don't say I can't go with other boys And don't tell me what to do. And don't tell me what to ...read more

The Day I Tore Up The Bible Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 11, 2017

No, I didn't actually tear up a Bible, but my audience didn't know that. Find out why I pretended to do that, and what that means to those who actually do tear pages from Scripture.

Last week I said that we’re going to make one statement over and over throughout this series: We don’t have to APOLOGIZE for our faith. We don’t need to rally to God defense. Our God is bigger than we are – and doesn’t really need our help. But in spite of that… God calls us to contend for the ...read more

Making A Difference

Contributed by Michael Caples on Nov 5, 2017

Making a difference as a Christian

If you went into a field at about 2:00 in the morning It would be very dark. If I lit a small light from the other side you would see it. As a matter of fact, you would turn all of your focus to it. Think of this world as that dark field. Our world is very dark. We are more full of sin than ever. ...read more

The Plan To Persevere Series

Contributed by Doug Fannon on Feb 27, 2018

How are we to overcome the heresies and temptations of the world. Jude just does,t tell us about the problems, he list the solution and tells us to snatch others from the fire.

We live in uncertain times. We live in a world that reimagines truth as something fluid. Oprah Winfrey speaks of “your truth,” and the world is mesmerised by what they imagine is her depth of insight. Of course, all such talk of truth as fluid is foolish. Water still freezes at 32 degrees F and ...read more

The Blessing Of Security Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Nov 8, 2015

We're secure; we didn't earn Heaven--Jesus earned it for us--so we won't lose out. We're guaranteed Heaven--not based on what we've done--but based on what Jesus accomplished for us on the cross.

How secure do you feel? The story is told of a monastery in Portugal, perched high atop a 3,000 foot cliff and accessible only by a terrifying ride in a swaying basket. The basket is pulled up with a single rope by several strong men, perspiring under the strain. One American tourist who visited ...read more

Remember Now…!

Contributed by Victor Ramlall on Jan 28, 2013

In times of difficulty, distress, discouragement and disaster we need to remember and focus on Who we serve and Whose we are for He is ever able to deliver!

But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit. But ye, ...read more

The Great Contender

Contributed by Perry Greene on Jul 24, 2013

Contending for the faith is not winning arguments. It is much harder. It involves difficult things like prayer and displays of mercy.

1. Swedish Military The Swedish military has cut back from around-the-clock-operations to a 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. schedule, Monday through Friday only. Sound crazy? It's true.
