From A Maniac To A Missionary Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jul 19, 2017

When life seemed hopeless for a man dwelling among the tombs and possessed with demons, Jesus brought deliverance. There is nothing too great or too small for the Lord. He is more than able to meet any need we have.

From a Maniac to a Missionary Mark 5: 1-20 Our text follows the great miracle Jesus performed as He calmed the raging sea that arose while they sailed upon the Sea of Galilee. As we come to Chapter 5, we encounter several more miracles Jesus performed as He walked among men. We will find Him ...read more

Separated And Sent To Serve Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Aug 23, 2017

As Jesus sent the twelve out to serve, He paired them according to His divine will and sent them out as He desired. They enjoyed His power and guidance. We too can rest in His power and provision as we seek to serve Him.

Separated and Sent to Serve Mark 6: 7-13 Today we come to what must have been an exciting and yet anxious time in the life of the disciples. They have been walking with Jesus for some time now, watching and learning from Him. While they have experienced much in their time with the Lord, Jesus had ...read more

The Service Of The Seventy Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Sep 5, 2017

Jesus was a trainer of men. The Lord sent out seventy disciples who were to prepare the way for the ministry of Jesus. He gave these seventy men a burden for the souls of men. He told them that the harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few.

Probably Judea Lesson: The Service of the Seventy Luke 10:1-24 Luke recorded several events from Jesus’ life that are not included in the other Gospels. The commissioning of the seventy is one of those events unique to Luke’s Gospel. (Luke 10:1-2) After these things the Lord appointed other ...read more

People want to believe that God’s wrath does not exist or that it will not affect them. However, nothing could be further from the truth. C.S. Lewis ...read more

Hurricanes, Prayer And Faith

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Sep 16, 2017

Many of us prayed against Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Jose. But they still happened. Why? Is it because none of us p had faith or too little faith? I believe the answer, from scripture, will be a surprise and an encouragement.

Hurricane’s Harvey, Irma and Jose. Many people, especially Christians, believe they are God’s judgment on the US because of sin. Predictably, the sins most Christians identify are same sex marriage, the homosexual lifestyle and abortion. None of these behaviors are the reasons why our country is ...read more

Don’t Waste The Blood

Contributed by John Gaston on Sep 24, 2017

We waste the blood of Jesus when we allow condemnation, doubt God's forgiveness, compare our goodness to others, think our prayers won't be heard and don't walk in victory. Christ's blood makes us perfect to the Father.

DON’T WASTE THE BLOOD INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Noah And Today's Ark 1.

The Cleft Of The Rock

Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Sep 30, 2017

The analogy of Christ to a rock has its roots in Scripture. There are numerous Old Testament references to the Lord as a "Rock" or "Rock of my salvation." Or as one of our songs, drawn from Psalm 18 says, “The Lord liveth, and blessed be the Rock.”

This sermon is rather unusual in format. I paused at various times for one of the members to lead a song relevant to the topic under consideration at the moment, sometimes followed by a prayer directly related to the subject. These notes reflect the pauses and the songs that were sung at those ...read more
