    based on 90 ratings
     | 45,394 views

    For all those who ever felt like giving up, you’re not alone. But instead of giving up it’s time to fire up, there is something new ahead of you.

    1 Ki 19 1-18 And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and withal how he had slain all the prophets with the sword. 2 Then Jezebel sent a messenger unto Elijah, saying, So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I make not thy life as the life of one of them by to morrow about this ...read more

     | 376 views

    Often we miss how important little things can be. Behind every successful man is a surprised moth-in-law? To be successful we must be faithful to finish little task.

    When You’re On Your Last Nerve

    Contributed by John Gaston on Sep 26, 2018
     | 4,714 views

    Have you ever had a moment when – maybe it was a screaming child, or a rude bullying driver cutting in on you, or a whole succession of unfortunate events happening – but whatever it was, it drove you to the brink of your endurance? That's when you need self-control!

    WHEN YOU’RE ON YOUR LAST NERVE Gal. 5:22 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. All of us can probably think of some time in our life where we went too far. 2. An elderly lady, driving a big, new, expensive car, was preparing to back into a parallel parking space when suddenly a young man in a small sports ...read more

    The Altitude Of Your Attitude Series

    Contributed by Rick Duncan on Aug 31, 2005
    based on 16 ratings
     | 8,008 views

    When God examines your attitude, is He pleased? Are you sinning against God – not by what you do – but by your bad attitude?

    What do… Ricky Davis, Milton Bradley, and Kevin Johnson … have in common? Well, they are all great athletes who have played for Cleveland teams. But the phrase that comes to my mind is “bad attitude.” I, for sure, don’t know the details of the stories with these men and you certainly can’t ...read more

    Pack Your Pew

    Contributed by Guy Glass on Jan 30, 2024
     | 2,813 views

    This message was preached for our "Pack Your Pew" Sunday with the emphasis of why coming/going to church was important. One of my emphases was that coming here is not nearly as important as going somewhere.

    PACK YOUR PEW Why Do I Need To Go To Church Anyway? Hebrews 10:25 OPENING ILLUSTRATION: This story deals with a rather old fashioned lady, who was planning a couple of weeks vacation in Florida. She also was quite delicate and elegant with her language. She wrote a letter to a particular ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,703 views

    Philip is an example of a person “Living With One Foot in Eternity.” This kind of person lifts up Jesus, inspires hunger for God, is connected with the supernatural, and brings great joy to people's lives.

    LIVING WITH ONE FOOT IN ETERNITY Acts 8:5-17 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A boy had a heated argument with his sister about who was going to get the last brownie. Their mother overheard the fuss and decided to teach them a deeper truth. She said, "What would Jesus do?" 2. The girl ...read more

    REMEMBER YOUR CREATOR IN THE DAYS OF YOUR YOUTH Ecclesiastes 12:1 “Remember your Creator in the days of your youth, before the days of trouble come and the years approach when you say: ‘I find no pleasure in them.” King Solomon gave this advice to the youth of his day.

    What does it mean for us to "take up your cross" and deny ourselves. I signed up for the benefits! I didn’t sign up to die.

    OPEN: I recently read the true story about a preacher who was standing at the door shaking hands as the congregation departed. He grabbed one man by the hand and pulled him aside. The preacher said to him, "You need to join the Army of the Lord!" The man replied, "I’m already in the Army of ...read more

    What Is Your Willoughby?

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Jan 5, 2018
     | 4,866 views

    One of my favorite episodes of The Twilight Zone is "A Stop At Willoughby". It's about a man who is so unhappy with his life that he dreams of little town where life is easy. There are many Christians who are like the story's main character.

    When I was growing up one of my favorite programs was The Twilight Zone. I have been accused of, from time to time, still living in the Twilight Zone! That’s okay. One of my favorite episodes is “A Stop at Willoughby”. The story is about a guy named Gart Williams. Now in my best Rod Sterling ...read more

    Your Trust Fund

     | 8,439 views

    The moment we are born again God establishes a Trust Fund for us. But so many of us are not accessing it.. Why?

    How many of you know that God has given us an inheritance? Every promise that God has identified in His Word belongs to us — and it belongs to us now. Physical and emotional healing. It’s ours now. Our needs being met financially. It’s ours now. Every prayer answer. It’s ours now. But, for ...read more

    Leave The Mountain

    Contributed by Steve Sheek on Apr 9, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 17,242 views

    Israel had been at Mr Sinai for a year, building the tabernacle, training an army, and learning God's instructions (Torah). The God told Moses, "you have been at this mountain long enough". It was time to move on and accomplish God's plan for Israel.

    Our Torah Portion today is the beginning of the book titled Deuteronomy. It comes from the Septuagint (the Greek translation of the Old Testament) and means “second law” or “repetition of the law. We know that when people say law, the actual Hebrew word Torah means instruction. God gave us His ...read more

    Wearing Your Faith

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Feb 12, 2025
     | 776 views

    James 2:17 says, "Even so, faith if it hath not works is dead, being alone." This message is about how a Christian can know that he or she is living by faith.

    Turn to Habakkuk 2:4. We will get there in a moment. Over the years I have heard countless sermons and teachings on faith – and that is a good thing. A person cannot be a Christian and not live by faith. The truth that a Christian must live by faith is found in both the Old and New ...read more
