Gideon - The Mighty Man Of Valor - Part 7 Of A Series Series

Contributed by Larry Semore on Aug 1, 2017

It is amazing what the Lord does with simple, ordinary people who will believe they can be used of God to do amazing and extraordinary things. You may think God could never use someone like you but if he can use Gideon, he can use anybody.

"Fake News: How Can I Know The Truth?” Series

Contributed by David Henderson on Sep 29, 2017

With the Internet today it is possible to spread fake news, to ruin someone’s reputation, to close down a business, to start a rumor that may never die and it’s possible to do all that quickly so it leaves us asking the question, how can I know the truth?

Made New

Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 5, 2017

Despite us having lived ungodly lives prior to our salvation, we can get our innocence back after getting saved. How?Because the old sinful self died with Christ and the New Creation being has never sinned! Gal. 2:20.

MADE NEW Isa. 43:18-19 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: FUNNY RESOLUTIONS 1. “I have resolved not to do drugs anymore, because I get the same effect just standing up really fast.” 2. “I have resolved to live in my own little world, because at least they know me here.” 3. “I have resolved to stay married, ...read more

A Study Of Psalm 22 Series

Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Nov 9, 2017

Psalm 22 is an amazing piece of literature. The way David writes this, you’d almost think he was standing at the cross because these events never took place in David's life, but instead were written 1,000 years before Christ's birth. Praise God!

A Study of Psalm 22 Psalm 22 Introduction - Psalms broken into 5 books, covered an extensive time period - Gathered together as songs of praise & words of encouragement/warning - We are studying book 1, Psalm 1-41 … Info: we’ll take break for Advent - If we apply ourselves, this could be a life ...read more

Navigating God’s Will Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Dec 17, 2018

God’s will is something we usually discern with our renewed minds, but sometimes God directs us differently (but never contrary to Scripture); sometimes He hints at those plans, but has not been clear about them — yet He reveals them in His time.

Navigating God’s Will (Matthew 1:18-25) 1. Some people think you can find God’s will by opening up a page of the Bible and putting your finger down, “Bible dipping.” So this guy tries this method of finding God’s will for him. He prays for guidance. He closes his eyes, lets his Bible fall open, ...read more

Treated Better Than We Deserve

Contributed by John Gaston on May 26, 2016

Many complain about God letting them down, but the truth is, God blesses us far more than we deserve. If we compare our selves with others, or consider if we got justice instead of mercy, we'd never charge God with wrongdoing.

TREATED BETTER THAN WE DESERVE Ps. 103:10 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. There was a man who had a cat named Mr. Peoples. It was an especially obnoxious cat which yowled a lot and loved to pounce on him when he fell asleep in his lazy-boy chair. It would stand around smirking at him. 2. So one day he ...read more

The Songs Of Ascent – Part 8 – Psalm 126 – Sow In Bitter Tears And Reap The Joyful Harvest Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Mar 2, 2023

Why is it we are slow or forgetful to recall the good things the Lord has done for us; not JUST the good things, but GREAT things. Those who sow in tears will reap in joyful shouting. Some forget what God did for them. Never lose hope for joy will come.

The Reality Of Hell

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jan 23, 2024

People often question what it takes to get to heaven. People question and wonder what heaven is really like. But you never really hear anyone ask about what hell is like. It makes me wonder if people even realize how real hell is.

For the last couple of weeks you may have noticed that we have talked about Jesus being the only way to heaven and we considered the question “won't all people ultimately go to heaven?” People often question what it takes to get to heaven. People question and wonder what heaven is really like. ...read more

Go Thy Way: When Jesus Healed A Blind Man Series

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Mar 10, 2020

The blind have never had it easy in this world. This story features Jesus healing a man from blindness, and also telling him, "go thy way". This is the last time the phrase "go thy way" appears in Mark's gospel.

Background: Jesus, in this passage, is only a few days away from Calvary, where He would die for the sins of the world. He had already explained this to the disciples, a short time before this (Mark 10: 43-44). Now the group is heading through Jericho, where He performed a miracle for a man who was ...read more
