Sermons on Men:

Abner Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Oct 2, 2022

The only engagement between the rival factions, told at length, is noteworthy since it was preceded by an encounter at Gibeon between 12 chosen men from each side, in which all 24 seem to have perished. Abner was defeated and put to flight in the general engagement that followed.

Abner In the Hebrew Bible, Abner was the cousin of King Saul and the commander-in-chief of his army. His name also appears as “Abiner son of Ner,” whereas the more extended form Abiner means “my father is Ner.” Abner is initially mentioned incidentally in Saul’s history, first appearing as the ...read more

We Must Tell It All

Contributed by Larry Grant on May 15, 2022

The message of Christ is a life-changing message! It can open the eyes blinded by sin. It can straighten the limbs withered by iniquity. It can cleanse away the leprosy of the soul. It can bring new life into a dead spirit. Jesus has the power to set men free!

Acts 4:13-20 WE MUST TELL IT ALL May 15, 2022 On 1st Sunday we preached just prior to this passage, where Peter and John had been used of the Lord to heal a beggar who sat at the gate of the Temple called Beautiful. The Jews were amazed, and Peter used their ...read more

Rise Up And Walk

Contributed by Terry Hovey on May 19, 2023

Every time I read this account I’m reminded of the account where Jesus healed the man who had been born blind. I guess it’s because they’re so similar in that both men were born in their condition...

Rise Up and Walk Acts 3:1-10 I really wish I had been here last Sunday to hear what Scott had to say, because the Day of Pentecost is such an important day in Christian history.

Psalm 73 - A Difference Of Perspective

Contributed by Anitha Jabastion on Nov 11, 2021

A group of blind men heard that a strange animal, called an elephant, had been brought to the town, but none of them were aware of its shape and form. Out of curiosity, they said: "We must inspect and know it by touch, of which we are capable".

All of us would have heard the parable of the blind men and the elephant: A group of blind men heard that a strange animal, called an elephant, had been brought to the town, but none of them were aware of its shape and form.

Reducing The Ark Of God To A Good Luck Charm

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Dec 1, 2021

In the early part of the time when Samuel was a Judge of Israel the people were still far from God. In a brazen act of foolishness some men charged into the Holy of Holies and and ran off with the Ark hoping it could help them defeat the enemy. It did not.

Where Did He Go? Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Job 19:25-27 “I know that my Redeemer lives, and that in the end He will stand on the earth.

Husbands, Love Your Wives

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 21, 2020

Paul commands husbands to love their wives as Christ loved the church. If men are to be the fathers the Lord expects, we must first be the husbands He expects. We can't love our children as we should if our love for our wives is lacking.

Husbands, love your Wives Ephesians 5:25 As we celebrate Father’s Day, I want to wish each father a happy Father’s Day. I can say without hesitation, that being a father is one of the greatest blessings and joys in my life. I am truly thankful for the two daughters the Lord blessed Tanya and me ...read more

Father’s Day 2018

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 25, 2018

A humorous true story of how I became a Father. Most men today are not ready to be Father's. That's O.K. God can prepare you. Be an example, be a godly man who lives their faith daily . Leave a legacy that is reflected in your children's character.

Father’s Day 2018 Psalm 127 Congratulations! You’re now a father. I remember when it happened and how it happened but I do not remember being ready for it to happen to me. The mystery of life became evident when I became a father. I was 27 years old when my wife gave birth to our ...read more

Courage To Serve Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Aug 11, 2019

Jesus had spent time with the disciples, preparing them for the work of ministry. He had instructed them on where to go, what to do, and how to conduct themselves among men. Then He shared the difficulty they would face as they served Him, being rejected by most.

Courage to Serve Matthew 10: 16-22 Jesus had commissioned the twelve for ministry, providing detailed instruction regarding the work they were expected to perform. Jesus had told them where to go, what to take, and how to conduct themselves as they ministered among men. Now Jesus offered insight ...read more

Serviceable Soldiers

Contributed by Craig Benner on Nov 14, 2019

Chocolate soldiers may look neat and taste delicious, but they don't help much in winning the battle at hand. God is still looking for men and women who are willing to step out of the comfort zone and do something for Him in this war zone of life.

SERVICEABLE SOLDIERS 1 Samuel 14:1,6 Now it came to pass upon a day, that Jonathan the son of Saul said unto the young man that bare his armour, Come, and let us go over to the Philistines' garrison, that is on the other side. But he told not his father. And Jonathan said to the young man ...read more

Confession Of Sin Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 5, 2021

All sin is sin against God. If we sin against people it is only sin because we violate a law of God. All confession, therefore, is legitimate before God, but not all sin should be confessed before men. Confession is to go as far as the sin.

Charles Francis Berry, a major league umpire, was once asked if he ever made mistakes in calling balls and strikes. He looked at the person as if he were joking, and said, "Of course I may mistakes. My only trouble is I can't admit it." The tragedy is that the inability to admit ...read more

Deacon Stephen Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Oct 12, 2020

The Freedmen on those days had secretly plotted against Stephen. They induced men and stirred up the people, the elders, and the scribes. They came upon him, seized him, and brought him to the council. They also set up false witnesses against Stephen. Truth triumphs.

You Are God's Treasure

Contributed by Beulah Praiselin on Mar 26, 2017

The great God who laid down his life for the sake of us will take care of us more than any other men/women. He knows very well what to provide? When to provide? How to provide? Our Owner never fails.

Greetings in the mighty name of Jesus Christ to all the chosen treasured possessions of Lord Our God. Yes! As Ephesians 2:10 says “We are God’s masterpiece”.

Paul Escorted To Caesarea Series

Contributed by John Lowe on May 25, 2017

Warm And Comfortable The Day After Easter

Contributed by James Kirkland on Apr 30, 2014

The resurrection did not end on Monday. The events of Sunday continue 24/7 in our lives. We need to remember yesterday, so we can grow today and tomorrow. The two men on the road to Emmaus needed to remember yesterday so they could Jesus today.

Warm and Comfortable the Day after Easter? It is getting to the point that we may need to turn the A/C on during the day, but the evening air might be a little cool. As we kick off our shoes and reach for the newspaper or maybe a cup of hot chocolate we get that comfortable cozy feeling. We are ...read more
