    based on 28 ratings

    God's Word has the power to cut away dead skin from our hearts. But how can it do that in our lives... and why doesn't it work in everyone's life?

    Cosmetic surgery has become very popular in our present day society. In one of the books I read a year ago, I ran across some unique surgeries that people actually pay money to have done to their bodies: • Back in 2010 more than a million American women underwent lip augmentation surgery. ...read more

     | 826 views

    Bottomline: Joy flourishes when we treasure knowing Christ above all else.

    Over the past several weeks we’ve been working our way through Paul’s letter to the Philippians and we’ve discovered how joy isn’t something that simply happens to us. It’s a deliberate response to the realities of who Christ is and what He’s done in our lives. We've explored how joy can ...read more

    Sermon # 10 - Pray And Intercede For The Lost Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 2, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 696 views

    We must abide in Christ and those who choose to do otherwise will be cut off. Also the Lord has chosen us so we can lead others into His kingdom. Like Abraham, every believer must also have a burden to pray and intercede for those who are lost without Christ.

    We read in 1 Samuel 2:35, And I will raise me up a faithful priest, that shall do according to that which is in mine heart and in my mind: and I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before mine anointed forever. (KJV) In the above mentioned verse, the Lord declares that He will raise up ...read more

    God Is Watching Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 13,410 views

    Holiness and fear of God seem to go hand in hand in this passage. But why should I "fear God" and what difference does it make when I do?

    OPEN: You may have heard the story of some children at a Catholic school who were lined up for lunch at the cafeteria. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples. A nun had made a note: "Take only one, God is watching." At the other end of the table was a large plate of ...read more

    Psalm 27 is a Psalm David wrote that reflected the kind of man that he was and the kind of God that he served. What can we learn from this Psalm about being a man or woman who serves our God?

    David wrote the 27th Psalm - and it’s a Psalm about how to face conflicts in life. It’s a Psalm about relying on God. A Psalm of HOPE. A Psalm of FAITH. And when I read this Psalm, it can kind of reminded ME of David facing Goliath. The psalm reflected David’s mindset when he went out to face the ...read more

    While most people agree to the importance of commitment, do believers really believe the importance of complete commitment to Christ?

    Twenty-nine years ago tomorrow, January 10, there was quite a football game in Cincinnati, OH between the San Diego Chargers and the Cincinnati Bengals. This was the AFC Championship Game.

    A Daily Quest That Leads To Eternal Rest

    We spend 2.5 days a year looking for lost items like the TV remote. The prophet Isaiah helps us see what important daily quest we should undertake.

    According to a 2017 survey by Pixie, a company that furnishes technology to locate lost items, Americans spend the equivalent of 2.5 days a year looking for misplaced items. What do you suppose the most misplaced item is? No, not phones or keys. It’s the TV remote. Apparently more than 70% of us ...read more

    Expectations – General And Specific – Great And Small Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 16, 2022
     | 4,077 views

    Expectations keep us hoping if they are good, and fearful if they are bad. There are many examples in the bible of expectations but I have selected only a few, then we look at Christian expectations. Even cricket is touched on.

    EXPECTATIONS – GENERAL AND SPECIFIC – GREAT AND SMALL I wonder how many are familiar with the novel “Great Expectations” by Charles Dickens. Pip the orphan boy relates his story that is based around what expectations wait for him, surprises, incorrect assumptions, tragedy and a lot more. Well as ...read more

    Righteous But Foolish

     | 9,779 views

    Most of us are too spiritual to think of eventualities in our planning thereby neglect taking precautions. The foolish five couldn’t go with the Groom because they refused to take precaution even when they saw others did. Wisdom is the principal thing!

    The story of the ten virgins in the book of Matthew 25:1-13 comes with a load of lessons and several sermons have been preached and are still being preached on it. Our focus today anyways is a critical look at the five that the Bible tagged “fool” among the ten virgins. What were ...read more

    No one pays that much attention to the wrapping. It’s what is inside that counts . . . right? Maybe this Christmas we should stop and consider how the gift was wrapped.

    Wrapped Pt. 3 - In Hope I. Introduction There is usually very little attention paid to the wrappings. Even if great time and effort is made to make sure each corner is tucked and folded perfectly. Even if the bow is picked to match exactly. Even if every seam is exact.
