    The Road To Hell... Where Does It Lead?

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 5, 2025
     | 353 views

    The title of my sermon is asking a question, the question is, the road to hell, where does it lead? This will not be a Joel Osteen sermon. I will show you from the Word of God the answer to that question, “the road to hell, where does it lead” in a few minutes.

    But I want to ask you another question, how did the Lord Jesus preach His sermons when He was here on earth? We do not have to do any surmising, to find the answer to that question, all we have to do is turn to the scriptures. How? It depended on who He was preaching too… (1)HE PREACHED SOFT ...read more

    Border Crossing

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Feb 1, 2026
     | 85 views

    In the Israelites' crossing through the Jordan and into the land of promise there are details which transfer quite remarkably clearly into instructions for our own entry into the land - the state of being - that God has promised to us in Christ Jesus.

    What kind of images do the words “Promised Land” mean to you? I didn’t see the TV show by that name very often, but it seemed to me, with my limited exposure, that this was a traveling family, always ready to pick up and move somewhere new, always optimistic about what was around the next corner, ...read more

    We Are All Crazy!

     | 12 views

    I heard a saying once that tickled my brain. It says: We are all crazy, just some hide it better than others! I know a lot of you believe in me and I appreciate that. But it also sort of scares me, because I always knew I was real.

    Are You A Gomer?

    Contributed by Jim Brown on Feb 14, 2026
     | 21 views

    To me, Hosea and Gomer is sort of the second best story in the Bible (Jesus’ salvation story being the first). Hosea and Gomer is a metaphor for God and Us. So we are all Gomers!

    Are you a Gomer? Intro Questions: How do you discipline your children when they do something wrong: Nothing? Gently talk to them? Timeout? Ground them? Take their phone? Spank them? Cain them? Kill them? Nuke them? Thanos Snap the entire Galaxy? When God catches you doing something wrong, what ...read more
