Trouble Is Brewing Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Mar 31, 2021

Mordecai, Esther, and the Jewish population in Persia may have been excited that a Jew had been selected as the new queen, but their excitement would not last. Trouble is brewing within the kingdom - a situation that will affect every Jew in the Persian Empire.

Trouble is Brewing Esther 3: 1-7 It is likely that Mordecai and the Jews within Persia were feeling confident about their current situation.

Clearing The Air About The Sacred Calling

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 12, 2021

This is no time for any man of God or serious Christian to be shy, hesitant, compromising, or half-hearted in our commission from the Lord Jesus Christ to go out into the world and preach His gospel. Today is the day to be bold for the kingdom of God.

Fellow preachers and servants in Christ, I must admit that it seems as if we are proclaiming the truth of the Gospel to stone walls these days. I have never seen such indifference and apathy in people concerning the state of their souls as I do now. We see and hear of so-called ...read more

Colonel Bottomly was rising to the level of general in the United States Air Force. He was a proud self-sufficient man who needed nobody.

Learning To Listen

Contributed by Jim Keegan on Dec 21, 2020

Modern society is very functionally oriented, and that tendency has carried over into the way we pray. The Kingdom of God, however, is far more relational, and we would do well to learn that way of being in God’s presence.

Listening Prayer Luke 1:5-23, 76-79 [Read Luke 1:5-23] It was the middle of the morning at the Temple in Jerusalem. A group of about fifty priests were gathered to cast lots to determine who would have the honor of entering into the Most Holy Place to offer incense at the altar. The burning of ...read more

Different Roles, Same Assignment

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Jul 9, 2021

There are some in the body of Christ who see those with public roles (ministries) in the body of Christ as being more valuable to the kingdom than those who don’t. But this is simply not true when you see “the big picture.”

Over the years, I’ve known Christians who, because they didn’t have public ministries, believed that they were, somehow, second tier to those who did. They were not preaching. They were not teaching Sunday school. They didn’t lead the choir. They served on committees. They were not unhappy. They ...read more

Adopted Sons Of God

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 9, 2022

This message looks at the concept of adoption. If we confess Jesus as Savior and Lord, we receive a new father, which is God the Father, and we become heirs of the kingdom. We are then able to call upon God as our Abba or Daddy.

Some of the most well-known words to the believer are the first six words of the Lord’s Prayer: “Our Father, who art in heaven.” Our Father - God is known as our heavenly Father. We pray to God as our Father, speak of Him as our Father, and even sing to Him as our Father. For example, one ...read more

Connected With God

We need to operate in the following four areas, in order to be connected with God and receive His guidance: 1. obey God’s voice, 2. be sensitive to the spirit, 3. have an understanding of the scripture, and 4. be adding souls to the kingdom.

Casting Our Net Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 25, 2022

Just as the dragnet sweeps in all kinds of creatures, the kingdom will contain all kinds of people; meaning that God isn’t picky about who enters into heaven, so long as they confess Jesus as Lord and are committed to living for Him.

This evening we will be looking at “The Parable of the Dragnet.” What in the world is a dragnet? William Barclay says, “The dragnet is what we know as the seine net, a large net which has corks at the top and weights at the bottom so that it stands, as it were, upright in the sea. Ropes attached ...read more

Contributed by Dr. Jerry Hulse on Jun 23, 2022

The word declares the five-fold ministry was bestowed upon the church until it attained the fullness of Christ's stature. It is imperative for the upcoming confrontation with the kingdom of darkness, and the church must ensure that it is in place to face any challenges with confidence.

Our Spiritual Family

Contributed by Jim Keegan on May 25, 2023

Jesus created the Church as the spiritual family we all need on our faith journey. And just as strong families are the building blocks of a healthy society, our spiritual families are equally foundational to living a richer life in the Kingdom of God.
