     | 47,988 views

    Greed is listed as one of the worst of sins - right up there with lewdness, adultery, and murder. But how likely am "I" to be plagued by greed? And how can God cure me of this terrible sin?

    Back in the 1800’s there was once a 350# wrestler in Europe named “Yusuf, the terrible Turk.” Three hundred and fifty pounds is a fairly huge man, and there wasn’t an ounce of flab on the man. He was formidable. And in his four years in Europe, he was impossible to beat, ...read more

    Be In The Now

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jan 8, 2018
     | 11,545 views

    It's easy to get sidetracked and let your mind wander. We get focused on things from the past or what's in the future. This can be especially true as we head into the new year. If we're not careful we'll risk losing out on making the most of the moment.

    BE IN THE NOW INTRODUCTION: Be Here Now is a book published in 1971 by Ram Dass on Hindu spirituality and yoga. I've never read the book and don't subscribe to Hinduism but the principle of the phrase itself is a valid one. Be here now communicates the importance of keeping your focus on what ...read more

    Suffocating In Worry

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 30, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,494 views

    Worry causes us to feel as though we’re grasping for breath and walking around half-dead. Worry zaps our life and drains our strength. In order to have true life in the Lord, we must place all our cares in the hands of Jesus Christ.

    E. Stanley Jones, a missionary to India in the early 1900’s, stated, “I live better by faith and confidence than by fear, doubt and anxiety. In anxiety and worry, my being is grasping for breath - these are not my native air. But in faith and confidence, I breathe freely - these are my native ...read more

    “The Gospel that we just heard picks up right where last week’s Gospel left off. Jesus had just finished teaching the parable of the wealthy fool to the crowds who came out to listen to Him.

    Gaining A Heart Of Wisdom Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 16, 2021
     | 7,633 views

    Life is short! We must invest our time in that which is of eternal value. All that glitters is not gold. The vanities of this world are of much less value than "gaining a heart of wisdom" (Ps. 90:12). This message leads into Jesus's parable about finding a treasure in Matthew 13:44.

    What do you value most in life? The question is not what you should value most. The question is what do you value most in life? The answer to that question is not found in what we say we value. The answer is found in how we invest our lives—how we invest the precious minutes, hours, and days of ...read more

    The Believer’s Role In The Kingdom Series

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jan 5, 2023
     | 3,126 views

    The Believer’s Role In the Kingdom of God is to embrace their position in the family of God. They are no longer aliens and stranger, they are a part of God’s own family. The enmity between God and man has been removed, they are accepted in the Beloved, Jesus Christ. They also have the peace of God.

    Sermon- The Believer’s Role In the Kingdom Scripture: Luke 12:28-34 “28 And if God cares so wonderfully for flowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow, he will certainly care for you. Why do you have so little faith? 29 “And don’t be concerned about what to eat and what to drink. ...read more

    These four small attitudes will do as we begin to think about how to apply the Truth of what Jesus shares with us in Luke 12 and as we apply verse 31. Seeking His Kingdom should be first for us. Jesus should be our focus. Our relationship with God should be our focus.
