    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jul 27, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,876 views

    This message provides insight on the current crisis in America, then expounds Philippians 2:25-30. Paul's commendation of Epaphroditus supplies criteria for discerning godly New Testament leadership.

    During the last few weeks our pattern has been to first address current events; then proceed with our study in Philippians. I will continue with that this morning. I. We are living in monumental times. It is a new season with new challenges and new opportunities. Charles Dicken’s line in A Tale ...read more

     | 2,120 views

    This is the 13th of 31 Devotions from a series called, 'The Church Called Jonah,' where I make a comparison between Jonah and The Church-at-large.

    # 13 - The Terrifying Question Jonah 1:10 – “This terrified them and they asked, “What have you done?” (They knew he was running away from the LORD because he had already told them so.)” “This terrified them…” In our last devotion, we saw how Jonah introduced himself to the mariners as a Hebrew ...read more

    Are you focusing your ministry on the many or on the few. Are you looking to impact the world or fill a pew?

    1 Cor 1:26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: 27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are ...read more

    Persecution Can Be Good

    Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Jan 30, 2021
     | 1,806 views

    We grow soft and cold without it. Sometimes it takes the fire of persecution for us to seek the fire of God.

    1 Peter 4:17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? 18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear? 19 Wherefore let them that ...read more

    This is the 30th of 31 Devotions in a series called, 'The Church Called Jonah,' and is entitled, The Third Death Wish. It's about Jonah's wish to die because of the plant which God removed.

    # 30 - The Third Death Wish Jonah 4:8b-9 – “Then he wished death for himself, and said, “It is better for me to die than to live.” 9 Then God said to Jonah, “Is it right for you to be angry about the plant?” And he said, “It is right for me to be angry, even to death!” Then he wished death for ...read more

    Everyone wants revival, but they may not like how it comes, so don't be a mule.

    Deuteronomy 32:15 But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: thou art waxen fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered with fatness; then he forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.

    Unexpected Events (Part 2) Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 7, 2021
     | 3,419 views

    Message analyzes the incident in Exodus 4:24-26 when God sought to kill Moses. Why were God's dealings so severe when he was on his way to Egypt to do what God told him to do at the burning bush? What lessons can the Christian draw from this story?

    Before we get into the message, I want to mention an opportunity we have in this season. Tomorrow, September 6th at sunset begins the Jewish New Year (Rosh Hashanah). That also launces the annual Ten Days of Awe on the Jewish calendar which culminates on September 16th with Yom Kippur, the Day of ...read more

    1 Peter Ch. 4 Commentary Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on May 18, 2021
     | 4,828 views

    In chapter 4, Peter urges Christians to be fiercely committed to fulfilling the purpose of our lives in Christ. Prior chapters made the case that we are a “holy people.” We have been rescued from meaningless lives and set apart from the world to be used for God’s purpose.

    And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear? —1 Peter 4:18 Text: 1 Peter 4:1-19 (KJV) Living for God’s Glory 1Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh ...read more

    1 Peter is a book about suffering. It’s about how to live in a hostile culture for faith.

    A pastor is cutting his front lawn. He looks up from mowing to see a dump truck back out of his neighbor’s driveway. Yet, the large truck backed over his neighbor’s eighteen month old son. The little boy had been squatting behind the truck’s huge tire. The pastor joined the boy’s hysterical mother ...read more

    When You Are Mistreated

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Apr 4, 2021
     | 2,676 views

    Have you been mistreated in any way in the last few weeks? I want to help us focus on the bad deals we have received and see how we can turn those into times we can praise God.

    1. I wonder if you have been treated unfairly in any way this week. a. To a child, did your parents blame you for something your brother or sister did? b. At school, did your teacher get you for something the fellow behind you did? And you tried to explain and made matters worse. c. I am talking ...read more

    We’ve been called to the adventure. We’re on our spiritual journey. Last week we talked about the moment of clarity, where we realize a profound truth, that God is real.

    "Dear friends, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal that has come on you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you. 13 But rejoice inasmuch as you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed. 14 If you are insulted ...read more

    What Is A Real Christian?

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 30, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,656 views

    With cultural Christianity being the norm in America, nominal faith is what people see most often, and it’s what comes to mind when we tell people we’re a Christian. So, what is a "real" Christian? This message points out five traits.

    I wish to begin our message this morning by sharing a story by Franklin Graham. He tells us, “Some years ago, I was in a cab when I asked the driver about his faith. He replied that he was a Christian, and I asked him how he became one. I’ll never forget his reply: ‘Oh, I was born a Christian’.” ...read more
