Staying On Track (Part 1) Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 7, 2020

Many Christians begin with zeal, but get sidetracked along the way. Some are distracted with career ambitions. Others let hobbies or other interests take more and more time. The most heartbreaking is when someone is sidetracked by a false doctrine. Message expounds Philippians 3:15-21.

Intro In our study of Philippians, we find ourselves in the last seven verses of chapter 3. In the verses just prior to this text Paul introduced the metaphor of running a race like they run in the Olympics. His instruction there was that we keep our focus on the finish line; we do not look back; ...read more

In any game, if you don't play by the rules, you lose. We often try to change the rules in our favor. But there is One who set the rules before all time and eternity who doesn't bend the rules for anyone, but gives grace to all who come to terms with reality.

Well, it’s the middle of summer, and the nation is immersed in what has been called its favorite pastime—baseball.

My Need For Revival Series

Ezra tore his garment, pulled out some of his hair, and collapsed on the ground in a public place so that the remnant could see his grief. When you tore your garment in Bible times, you weren’t pitching a fit. Instead, you were showing deep remorse.

My basketball coaches would ask our high school team, “Who wants it?” Again, I want you to personally experience a revival. Here is a fork in the road kind of question: Do you want to experience an awakening?

I want you to personally experience a revival. I want our church family to experience a spiritual awakening. And most importantly, God Himself wants you to experience Him in all His fulness.

Resolved To Follow Christ

Contributed by Alan Perkins on Jan 4, 2026

Does God want us to change, to mature and grow over time? Yes! And he has provided the power to do so. But change is not automatic; we have to cooperate with the work of the Holy Spirit in us. Here is how we do that.
