    At college, you face many choices. You have to choose a major…you have to choose who you are going to hang out with as friends. You will have to make choices related to time management. You will have financial choices to make…how much money are you go

    I remember my first week at college at KSU. At college, you face many choices. You have to choose a major…you have to choose who you are going to hang out with as friends. You will have to make choices related to time management. You will have financial choices to make…how much money are you ...read more

    This is a message encouraging believers to follow the wisdom found in the following: In essential things, unity. In non-essential things, liberty. In all things, charity.

    Remember Pat Tillman? He’s the football player who turned down a three-year, $3.6 million contract with the Arizona Cardinals to enlist in the Army in May 2002 in the wake of the 9/11 tragedy. Tillman was killed in a firefight in Afghanistan. Sports pages all across America told his heroic story. ...read more

    The Bible is very clear about the test for Elders and Deacons and this morning we’re going to check our answers with Scripture.

    Mrs. Baker, a fifth grade teacher, observed a student in her class flipping a coin as he answered each true/false question on a test. This answer selection method continued all the way through the exam. Mrs. Baker then watched as he went through each question again, pausing to flip the coin each ...read more

    Today we’re going to look at the second half of the list of qualifications for Elders from Titus 1:8-9 and then we’re going to take a brief look at the role of Deacons in the church.

    Today is my 25th birthday! Some of you look skeptical because you’re sure I’m older than that. Through the witness of my college roommate, I was born spiritually on October 3rd, 1979. Actually, I wish I acted older than I am. While I’m thankful for all the changes that Christ has made in my life, ...read more

    based on 30 ratings
     | 4,227 views

    Our salvation is secure in Christ, but how can we secure our treasures in Heaven? Three simple points can be found in this text that should help us.

    “How to Keep Your Treasure?” Introduction: The Bible talks about the greatness of Hezekiah. But in his greatness came weakness. He was lifted up with pride in this text. It is not possible for a saved person to become "unsaved." But it is possible for a Christian to not lay up treasure in ...read more

    Sheep Need Shepherds

    based on 17 ratings
     | 3,181 views

    We need elders who are willing to stand up and speak the truth when the truth is needed. Men who aren’t worried about their image, but concerned about the direction of the church. Men who are looking to build up the body and not themselves.

    Sheep Need Shepherds (Church Elders Needed) Introduction: Two weeks ago = Jesus, Lord & Savior, perfect leader Last week = 12 apostles, ordinary men, unqualified leaders This week, according to the title of the sermon, Sheep Need Shepherds, we will look at the need that we as a church have, and ...read more

    Paul sets before us a worthy goal-which most of us will work on for a lifetime

    Paul sets before us a worthy goal-which most of us will work on for a lifetime and still not completely reach. We ought to take this list seriously but also graciously and realistically. I. The Overlooked Ingredient 1 Timothy 3:1 "Here is a trustworthy saying: If anyone sets his heart on being ...read more

    Paul sets before us a worthy goal-which most of us will work on for a lifetime

    Now, we will discuss the qualities of spiritual leadership in 1 Timothy 3 and Titus 1. Don’t be discouraged as you work through this list. No one meets these qualifications 100%! We’re not looking for perfection, but rather solid evidence of growth in each area. The Leader’s Temperament 1. ...read more

    Paul sets before us a worthy goal-which most of us will work on for a lifetime

    It’s interesting that Paul uses four negative expressions to specify how the godly leader must live. Some things simply must not be present in his life. Those four are counter-balanced by one positive characteristic. 1. Not violent 1 Timothy 3:3 I like the King James rendering-"Not a striker." ...read more

    Paul sets before us a worthy goal-which most of us will work on for a lifetime

    1. Above reproach 1 Timothy 3:2 This phrase serves as a general summary of all the character qualities a leader should have. The Greek word describes a garment without any "folds." When applied to personal character, it means that leader must be free from any secret or hidden pockets of sins. ...read more

    Paul sets before us a worthy goal-which most of us will work on for a lifetime

    1. Not a new convert 1 Timothy 3:6 The word for "new convert" is neofuton-from which we get the English word "neophyte." It literally means "new plant." Don’t put a "new plant" in a position of leadership. "New plants" need nurturing, they need fertilizer, they need someone to pull the weeds ...read more

    Paul sets before us a worthy goal-which most of us will work on for a lifetime.

    Churches suffer when this category is ignored or downplayed. Paul listed three very specific requirements concerning a leader’s family life. We ignore them at our own peril. 1. Husband of one wife 1 Timothy 3:2 Unfortunately this qualification has been so wrapped up in controversy that we have ...read more
