A Church Built On Christ Series

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Oct 16, 2024

Just what is it that makes a church authentic? The greatest challenge that we find as we try to follow Jesus is dedicating ourselves to the truth of the Scripture in a culture that tends to base their lives on their own opinions instead of on the truth of God's word.

I have asked God what words can I bring to the church that would make this transition a lot easier so that we can remain ...read more

By Faith We Understand

Contributed by Larry Grant on Nov 3, 2024

Faith is trust in the unseen. It is not trust in the unknown, for we may know by faith what we cannot see with the eye. The Scripture says, “By Faith We Understand.” We understand the Evidence. We understand the Elders. And We understand the Eternal.

Time Spent In God's Word

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Aug 7, 2024

I wonder how much time each of you spend in God's Word each day. These numbers show a troubling imbalance in our lack of time spent in the Scripture and its damaging effect on our spiritual vitality.

What is true love? How do you know if you have found it? In this message, we're going to explore Scripture to find the answers we need to know the love we have is the love meant for us.

How Does The Bible Describe God?

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on May 9, 2025

If someone asked you to describe your best friend, you would be able to describe them thoroughly. If someone asked you to describe God according to what the scriptures says about Him, COULD YOU DESCRIBE HIM THOROUGHLY?

Why? • Because we really cannot WORSHIP GOD unless WE KNOW HIM. • Because we really cannot SERVE GOD unless WE KNOW HIM. • Because we cannot BECOME if we do not know what kind of God He is.
