It Is Time For Renewal

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Aug 4, 2021

The world is going through dark times, yet we see people standing together as bright torches shining through the blackest night. Others in great suffering cannot keep their faith and kneel to the ground in discouragement, let us renew our minds, take courage, share our faith and keep working.

Hag 2:1 in the seventh month, on the twenty-first day of the month, the word of the LORD came by Haggai the prophet, 2 "Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to all the remnant of the people, and say, 3 ...read more

The Joseph Factor

Contributed by Pastor/Author: Terry Sisney on Apr 23, 2022

In this sermon we look at a very special anointing on Joseph's life, that God wants to release on us today. Joseph had it, and we need it. All we have to do is ask for it.

I want to talk to you today about the Joseph factor. The first thing I want to say today is that I don't only want you to hear my words today, I want you to hear my heart. I'm not a person given to snap judgments, or to extremes. I'm pretty even tempered, and pretty even-keeled. ...read more

Meeting Jesus At His Table - Come And Dine Series

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Sep 30, 2022

Many of us start out well but tend to lose our focus. Goals are simply abandoned, and dreams are forgotten. They seem to spend all their time responding to crisis rather than preparing for the future. Come and dine!

Loving Our Enemies (February 20, 2022)

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 11, 2022

Is it harder to turn the other cheek, to offer something else when someone has taken something from us, to be generous, to be merciful and to go the extra mile?

LOVING OUR ENEMIES Text: Luke 6: 26-38 Luk 6:27-38  "But I say to you that listen, Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,  (28)  bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you.  (29)  If anyone strikes you on the cheek, offer the other also; and ...read more

I Give You This Land, Even More I Give This Land To Your Children. Series

Contributed by Amiri Hooker on Mar 11, 2022

When God adds a promise of land to Abram’s “seed” promise (Genesis 12:7), we think that Abram is goanna be great. The story doesn’t end there. God turns from the promise of descendants to the possession of land.

Sermon, I Give You This Land, Even More, I give this land to Your Children. The story of God and Abram starts when God commands Abram to migrate to Canaan. God offers Abram magnanimous promises: he will be a great nation; he will have a great name; God will bless people who bless him and curse the ...read more

The Narrow Road

Contributed by John Gaston on Sep 3, 2022

Many Christians are on the "wide road" because they don't know the requirements of Jesus. There's a Narrow Gate/ entrance in the form of a Cross. We must get rid of all our old baggage. This message starts with a short drama. Powerful!

THE NARROW ROAD Mt. 7:13-14; Lk. 13:24 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: CALL FROM ALMIGHTY GOD 1. A pastor was working late on Saturday night at the Almighty God Tabernacle. Around 10:00 PM he decided to call his wife before he started for home; she didn't answer. Later he figured out he’d dialed the ...read more

Shadows Of The Past

Contributed by Jeff Taylor on May 17, 2023

We have heard the expression, "Let go and let God". Let your problems go and let God deal with them. Let go of your worries and let God take care of that. Let go of your past and let God give you a future. And yet we have forgotten that proven philosophy.

So many times, we have heard the expression, "Let go and let God". Let your problems go and let God deal with them. Let go of your worries and let God take care of that. Let go of your past and let God give you a future. All of that is as true as the Holy Scriptures themselves. And yet ...read more

Gifts And Growth

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on May 21, 2023

In these verses we learn that our Lord Jesus Christ has given spiritual gifts to each believer. And that there is a purpose for the gifts. Too often many believers do not use the spiritual gifts that have been given to them. Surely our Lord does not want us to waste them.

Alba 5-21-2023 GIFTS AND GROWTH Ephesians 4:7-16 Last Sunday was Mother's Day and my wife, Janine, was given several gifts.

God Knows How To Deliver The Saints And Sinners

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 7, 2025

Many ministers do not like to prepare sermons that deal with only one verse of scripture.

Why? There are several reasons. (1) Often when preachers select one verse it is easy to take it out of context. Did you know you can twist the scriptures to make it sound like anything you want it to sound? Let me give you an example… You can quote from scripture the Bible says, THERE IS NO ...read more

Wind The Clock Series

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Feb 15, 2025

As we reflect on the gift of time, today's message challenges us to "wind the clock" by aligning our hearts with God's eternal purpose—living each moment with faith, perseverance, and an awareness that our time is best redeemed in obedience to Him.

Tithing For Believers - Under Grace Or Law?

Contributed by Graham Kettle on Feb 25, 2024

Tithing can be a much misunderstood and often much abused subject as I have seen from so many televangelists. What is Biblical, New Testament tithing? An obligation under the Law or an act of grace? For me Scripture is clear. See if you agree.

TITHING FOR BELIEVERS - UNDER GRACE OR LAW? One favourite text for promoting tithing is: Luke 6:38 Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to ...read more
