    Growing in Christ makes us strong in tough times.

    An Exposition of 1 Peter, part 8: The Pure Milk 1 Peter 2:1-3 Introduction In the last study Peter told us of the importance of sincere love among the brethren. Love must not be hypocritical. This is necessary for believers at all times as it is a reflection of the love of God. It serves as a ...read more

    In Hot Pursuit - What Are You Running After?

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Apr 6, 2021
     | 6,097 views

    You can tell a lot about a person by what they are running after and what they are running from. Christians have a godly assignment even in a pandemic. .

    Paul, who is the writer of our text, provides instructions for the Philippian Church as they move forward to become the best that they could be for Christ. Rather than be complacent with where they were, they needed to set their sights higher. The Apostle Paul gives this church his personal ...read more

    As it was with Elijah, we, too, often face despair.

    FROM THE MOUNTAIN OF VICTORY TO THE VALLEY OF DESPAIR “And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, also how he had executed all the prophets with the sword. 2 Then Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, “So let the gods do to me, and more also if I do not make your life as the life of ...read more

    Three Ways To Deal With God

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 30, 2022
     | 2,025 views

    In this sermon, I want to deal with a STATEMENT we find in the scriptures that says, “There is no God!”

    But we definitely need to put this statement into context. The whole verse says, “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God.” Since God can not be seen, some foolishly say there is no God. Now if He could be seen they would not be able to state that. But just because we can not see Him ...read more

    Several questions about a Christian Is... a Saint (Material adapted from Bob Tinsky's book, A Christian Is..., Chapter 9, pgs. 133- 143)

    HoHum: Two brothers were convicted of stealing sheep many years ago in England. In accordance with the punishment of those days, they were branded in the forehead with the letters “ST” for sheep thief. One brother, unable to bear the stigma, fled to a foreign country where he died ...read more

    The Path To Stability Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Feb 26, 2017
    based on 2 ratings
     | 10,742 views

    The early church experienced amazing growth and power. She was very young and very pure. We must follow the biblical model rather than striving to meet the expectations of contemporary culture if we are to experience God's presence and power.

    The Path to Stability Acts 2: 42-44 Today I want to conclude our series: Church – A New Testament Model. Once again we are in the book of Acts, immediately following Pentecost. The Lord had ascended back to the Father, and the Spirit had come, filling the believers. The presence and power of God ...read more

    Surrendered To The Savior Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jan 3, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 12,039 views

    Jesus offered a convicting mandate - take up your cross and follow me! In that culture the cross was not westernized like it is in our culture as a fashion statement. It meant death.

    Surrendered to the Savior Mark 8: 34-38 For the past few weeks we have discussed some intense conversation between Jesus and the disciples. He had questioned them regarding His deity and their acceptance of Him as the Christ. While others had a skewed perception of Christ, Peter boldly, and ...read more

    The Grace Afforded The Saints

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Sep 23, 2018
     | 4,894 views

    Promises are only as good as the ability of the one making the promise. Often promises are made, and yet the individual is unable to keep the promise. Such is never the case with the Lord. What He has promised, He will provide!

    The Grace afforded the Saints 2 Peter 1: 3-4 It is interesting to note, Peter penned this letter near the end of his life, V.14. No doubt he was mindful of what he faced, knowing the tactics of the Romans and their accepted practices of execution. However, like his contemporary Paul, Peter faced ...read more

    No Hill For A Stepper

    Contributed by G W Bill Elliott Jr on Feb 15, 2020
     | 2,507 views

    Problems are always upon us and getting over the little humps is easy. Getting over the larger ones simply means you grow to be bigger than that hill… so-as to just step right over it, rather than struggle to climb it.

    Too often, we look on that passage “God never gives you more than you can handle” as though He is putting you through some awful test, or that He is “easing up on the throttle” regarding just how much pressure He is causing you to endure. This writing is to help us see this passage from His ...read more

    Harmony In The Home

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jan 15, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 7,105 views

    Continuing with his call for submission to the Lord, Peter challenged believers to submit to God's given design for the home. Their submission to honor one another would provide honor unto the Lord.

    Harmony in the Home 1 Peter 3: 1-7 Our text today deals with the relationships within the home. On the surface it may appear that Peter has taken a different perspective, but the overall theme he sought to convey in the latter part of chapter two continues. He dealt much with our submission to ...read more

    Before the event at Mizpah, Samuel had anointed Saul privately as Israel's first King. But on the day he was to be presented to the people, Saul was hiding in the baggage.

    THE KING IN HIDING "20 And when Samuel had caused all the tribes of Israel to come near, the tribe of Benjamin was chosen. 21 When he had caused the tribe of Benjamin to come near by their families, the family of Matri was chosen.

    Paul gets a clear vision of Christ and abandon all that he was for (1) a Personal Knowledge of Christ (2) a Personal Position in Christ (3) the Personal Power of Christ (4) a Personal Perfection in Christ (5) a Personal Possession of Christ.

    Assembling A Team - Mark 1:16-20 Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Feb 22, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 13,067 views

    As Jesus began His ministry, one of the first priorities was to assemble a team of men to serve alongside Him, men He could teach and equip to carry on the work of the church. The Lord is still seeking those who will follow Him in service.

    Assembling a Team Mark 1: 16-20 Following His baptism, wilderness temptation, and public introduction in Galilee, Jesus continued His work here on earth. One of the first priorities was to assemble a team of men to walk with Him, whom He could teach and prepare for ministry. In our text Jesus ...read more
