Ge 37:5 And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told [it] his brethren: and they hated him yet the more. (19) And they said one to another, Behold, this dreamer cometh. (20) Come now therefore, and let us slay him, and cast him into some pit, and we will say, Some evil beast hath devoured him: and we ...read more

"Prison Break”

Contributed by Sean Dees on Feb 7, 2020

There is no question that out there people are living in bondage and are prisoners to sin.

I. Nobody wants to go to prison willingly. Prison does not have the appeal of a Hilton, beach, or exotic location. I know by the reports that we hear of our prison systems running over that it must be the number one vacation destination in the world. It is evident that we are living in difficult ...read more

Cost Of Being A Disciple

Contributed by Mark Engler on Sep 28, 2017

Ready For Anything (Part 4: Going On The Offensive) Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Jul 9, 2024

This exposition from Ephesians 6:10-18 deals with the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit. The prayer called for in verse 18 is part of the teaching concerning spiritual warfare. While a good defense is necessary, Christians must go on the offensive and fulfill the Great Commission.

Intro We are dealing with spiritual warfare using Ephesians 6:10-18 as our text. Every Christian needs to know how to do spiritual warfare because every Christian is a soldier. Like it or not, you are in a fight with the devil. His intentions toward you are not good. He hates you because he hates ...read more

See God's New Thing! (Isaiah 43:16-21) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jun 6, 2024

There are helpful and unhelpful ways to think about the past, and about God's past acts of salvation. God encourages his people to stop thinking about the exodus, and see his new act of salvation.
