     | 4,044 views

    People of this world are shrewd in their secular dealings, and Christians can likewise be shrewd in their spiritual development, not at the expense of virtue but in pursuit of it.

    Yesterday morning, I went outside to cut the grass. I put on my jeans and a ratty old aloha shirt. I put on my yard work shoes, my hat and sunglasses, and my big yellow ear muffs. I climbed up on the tractor, pulled out of the garage. BOY, it was a beautiful day. I ride down to the end of the ...read more

    There are only 2 options. You accept that TRUTH is the Word of God and Jesus Christ or you believe truth is ever changing with culture and society. Which do you believe?

    The Death of Truth Merriam-Webster definition of Truth is where we need to begin. You won’t find many word definitions that are this opposite between the dictionary and the Bible. TRUTH – (noun) ((PERSON, place, THING or IDEA)) So, from whichever one you use to define TRUTH, will ...read more

    A Crack Pot Or A Cracked Pot

    Contributed by Keith Broyles on Oct 7, 2014
     | 12,396 views

    God can use our cracks, our flaws to spread the Living Water to those in the world around us. When we live our faith, when we show our faith, the Living Water is pouring from us, despite our condition, to change the world.

    Just in case you didn’t know, according to Merriam-Webster’s Online Dictionary, a crackpot is defined as “a person who is crazy or very strange.” I am sure this was not a news flash for just about anyone here this morning. I spent quite a bit of time this past week trying ...read more

    There will only be peace on earth when Jesus comes again to rule. All Bible references are from the NASB.

    We have been examining what the angels were praising God about when they praised God with the words: Luke 2:14 “Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace among men with whom He is pleased.” As we have commented on this over the past few weeks, this peace on earth was directed towards those ...read more

     | 2,741 views

    The Bible never specifically mentions the Holy Trinity but the Bible does mention how God works in ways that go beyond our ability to understand because God is infinite and we are finite. This sermon intends to explain why Trinity Sunday is such a big deal.

    WHERE THE HOLY SPIRIT DWELLS Text: I Corinthians 6:19 - 20 1 Corinthians 6:19-20  Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own,  (20)  for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body. ...read more
