    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 25, 2022
     | 2,708 views

    I want to preach on something today that applies to everyone here, and I hope you will give me your undivided attention.

    Illus: This sermon reminds me of a new pastor that came to his first church. Being new in the ministry he did not know what to expect. For four weeks he was very busy. He had eight funerals and five weddings plus his other duties. He did not have time to write his regular Sunday sermon so he used ...read more

    Illus: On July 4, 1952, Florence Chadwich, aged 34, waded into the water off Catalina Island and began her 21-mile swim toward California. If she completed her journey, she would be the first woman ever to accomplish this feat. The water was ice cold, and the fog was so heavy, that Florence could ...read more

     | 945 views

    In our text, Paul explains some of the things that motivated him.

    If we are going to be the SPIRITUAL INDIVIDUALS God wants us to be, we are going to have to have the same motives he had. WHAT IS A MOTIVE? The dictionary describes it as “A conscious or unconscious need or drive that incites a person to some action or behavior.” Illus: Someone has said, “The ...read more

     | 2,046 views

    Through regular sex with your spouse, pay him or her what you owe, praise the Lord, and put yourself at ease.

    Rita Fischer of Dexter, Michigan, recalls her wedding day, which was unseasonably warm. To make matters worse, the air conditioning in the church wasn't working. She became increasingly uncomfortable in her gown. She grumbled during the photo session, then endured the receiving line, cutting ...read more

    Don’t ever forget to remember what God has done for you.

    On Monday, our nation marked Memorial Day. This day, formerly known as Decoration Day, was established so we never forget the ultimate sacrifice men and women in the military made for us. Monuments, memorials, and even parades are designed to help us remember not to ever forget. I came across ...read more

     | 2,049 views

    When the romance is gone from your marriage, stay married and be a channel of blessing to your family. However, set your unbelieving spouse free if he or she wants out.

    Sonja Ely, of Dallas, Oregon, was watching her 5-year-old granddaughter Christy play with her dolls. At one point, Christy “staged” a wedding, first playing the role of the bride's mother who assigned specific duties, then suddenly becoming the bride with her “teddy bear” groom. She picked him ...read more

    The Disciple Peter - Former Memories Kindled – Part 4 Of 4 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jul 14, 2022
     | 1,516 views

    Peter was miserable for 2 plus days with the whole sense of failure drowning him. His whole life changed when he had that special encounter with the Lord and was restored. God deals in restoration for all of us and lifts us out of failure.

    THE DISCIPLE PETER - FORMER MEMORIES KINDLED – PART 4 OF 4 SERIES - THE CHARACTERS IN JOHN’S GOSPEL John 20 v 1 Now on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came early to the tomb while it was still dark, and saw the stone already taken away from the tomb, John 20:2 and so she ran and came ...read more

    Oaths Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jul 19, 2022
     | 3,031 views

    Jesus now says that His disciples should not take an oath at all. They should not swear by anything. The main reason is that a person known for integrity does not need to enhance their promises

    SERMON ON THE MOUNT (OATHS) 33 Again, you have heard that it was said to the people long ago, 'Do not break your oath, but fulfill to the Lord the vows you have made.' 34 But I tell you, do not swear an oath at all: either by heaven, for it is God's throne; 35 or by the earth, for it is ...read more

    The Testing Scheme Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Nov 18, 2021
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,766 views

    Satan’s onslaught against the Word of God is constant. He is always twisting and manipulating, trying to get us to doubt what the Lord has said. In addition to attacking the Word, the devil will bombard us with testing and trials.

    Every temptation is a kind of test . . . from the Evil One. A temptation is a trial posed by Satan, with the wicked hope that we will fail. - Philip Ryken(1) Satan’s onslaught against the Word of God is constant. He’s always twisting and manipulating, trying to get us to doubt what the Lord’s ...read more

    The Heritage Scheme Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Nov 18, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,103 views

    Quite possibly, the sneakiest scheme of the devil is how he can keep us unaware of sin. The devil is able to mask sin through heritage, and sin is a disease that can be passed through family lines. It's referred to as generational sin.

    The iniquities of one generation can adversely affect future ones unless those sins are renounced and . . . heritage in Christ is claimed. - Neil Anderson(1) Quite possibly, the sneakiest scheme of the devil is how he can keep us unaware of sin. Satan knows that if we’re left unaware of certain ...read more

    Douglas Bernstein, a psychology professor at the University of Illinois recently asked faculty members for the ‘most unusual, bizarre, and amazing student excuses’ they had ever heard.

    He got dozens of responses from his fellow professors: * Grandparent death: an old favorite, but one professor’s class established some sort of record when 14 of 250 students reported their grandmother’s death just before final exams. * Car Problems: "I had an accident, the police impounded ...read more

    Saved By Faith Alone! Really??? Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Nov 27, 2021
     | 2,154 views

    Could it really be that works have nothing to do with gaining a right-standing with God? Don't good people who do good works get to Heaven. The Apostle Paul has an answer.

    I’ve entitled my message this morning “Saved by Faith Alone! Really???” because shockingly that’s precisely the attitude of most self-described Christians in America today. An October 2020 survey of self-described Christians in America by Arizona Christian University revealed the 52% of ...read more

     | 2,448 views

    What is the current state of believers in relationship to God? Are we in need of somehow doing penance in order to atone for our sins, make ourselves right with God. The book of Romans has an answer to those who would say yes.

    Jeanie and I recently watched the 2013 movie Philomena via Netflix at home. It’s based on the book The Lost Child of Philomena Lee by Martin Sixsmith. It is the true story of a 19-year-old Irish woman who became pregnant out of wedlock in 1951, was disowned by her father and went to live in an ...read more

    One … But Different!

     | 1,800 views

    When we look at a crowd of people, we see that each person is different. That difference can be seen in many ways.

    Illus: Our difference reminds me of the three women who were convicted of criminal charges and were brought before a firing squad. • One was a redhead, and all the guns were pointed at her and the Captain said, “Ready, Aim…,” and the redhead hollered “Earthquake”. They all looked around and she ...read more
