You Don’t Need Anymore...

Contributed by Charlie Roberts on Jan 18, 2020

The problem isn’t believing God can do the impossible, it’s believing God will do the impossible for us! Gods ability is not in question! Our ability to believe is!

You don’t need any more... That's kind of an edgy phrase huh? Many have said those words, many have heard those words, from children to the elderly and said "what do you mean?" I'll be the one who decides when I have enough! I want more! In our appetite for life, what gives ...read more

Faith Cometh By…

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 22, 2022

Many of the doctrines of the Bible are both SIMPLE and COMPLEX.

Faith is one of those doctrines. For example: • It is so simple a child can understand it • It is so deep that you can spend a lifetime studying it, and never be able to comprehend it fully One of the reasons that we do not see the hand of God moving in our churches today, is because of the lack ...read more

Worshipping Face To Face

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 6, 2022

This is a topical message related to worship. I want to discuss the worship-related experience of coming face to face with the glorious presence of the Lord, which ultimately leads to the worship response of falling face down before Him.

I once preached a sermon entitled “Worshipping Face Down,” in which I discussed how people in the Bible often fell face down in worship in response to the glorious presence of both God the Father and the Son.

The Spirituality Trap

We have a tendency to see the shining mountaintop moments or the depths of despair as being the most spiritually significant. But genuine spirituality surfaces - and matures - in the daily decision to forgive, to tell the truth, to resist a temptation or to hold our tongues.

My mom tells me that when we were little she could dress my sister and me up for church in starched white petticoats and send us out to play in the yard until time to leave for church and be absolutely certain that we wouldn’t have a spot on us. We LOVED to dress up. There was no way we were going ...read more

Look especially at verse 6, we read, “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”

Also, let us look at Romans 10:13-17 All churches that are Bible preaching churches, preach regularly on the doctrines of the Bible. Many of the doctrines of the Bible are both SIMPLE and COMPLEX.
