Jesus, Mad, Monster, Or Master? Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Feb 23, 2015

How do you respond to Jesus? Like the Pharisees who want everything to be neat and tidy within clearly defined parameters? Like Jesus’ family who are embarrassed by him and doubt him? Or like those who followed him, even at the risk of their lives?

How much is too much? I’m not thinking about chocolate here. That’s an easy one. No, I’m thinking about ministry effort. When do you say enough is enough? Is it OK to say “I’ve done my 40 hours this week; now I’m going to stop and have a rest”? Or should ...read more

Man Made Or God Made

Contributed by Dr. Amen Howard on Aug 23, 2013

Proverbs 18: 22 He who finds a wife finds a good thing’ and receives favor from the Lord. Paul taught that husbands and wives were to specialize; to actually specialize in one specific world for a specific way of live but I doubt if that exist nowadays.

True Faith Leads To Obedience

Contributed by Amor A. Dee on Mar 11, 2011

The phrase, “obedience that comes from faith” clarifies that a true faith leads to obedience. Abraham, Noah and Paul, were examples of faith. They never doubt rather they fully trust God and with fully obey what the Lord had commanded them, and so to us.

Jesus Is Alive, What Are You Going To Do?

Contributed by Greg Carr on Apr 1, 2010

Jesus is risen and He lives today. The question is, what are you going to do with this truth? Are you going to hide, are you going to be in fear, are you going to doubt or are you going to embrace Jesus Christ and allow Him to change your life so that you

A Resurrected Greeting

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Apr 10, 2022

Taking our teaching from Romans 6:4, we’ll be looking at the basis of our greeting one another during this time and what the resurrection proves and guarantees, and some of the evidence to prove the resurrection beyond a shadow of a doubt. Christ is Risen! He is Risen Indeed!

A Resurrected Greeting Romans 6:4 America is one of the few countries where the customary greeting for Easter has absolutely no connection to the resurrection of Jesus Christ. What we hear is “Happy Easter.” But this is not how the church has greeted one another in times past. The early church ...read more

Helmet Of Salvation: We Are Not Good Enough Series

Contributed by Troy Borst on Mar 9, 2023

When we encounter the completely true thought that “we are not good enough” our society and our need for self-esteem creep up and we take our helmet of salvation off because we are disillusioned with God and we open ourselves up for temptation and doubt.

Looking For Answers In The Wrong Places

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Oct 24, 2021

We must know beyond any doubt that our God does speak to us. The LORD God comes near to us, and with living words He tells us his will. God speaks to us, and directs us in what we’ve got to do.

Some years ago I saw a sign out front of a church. The sign read: “There are Some Questions that Can’t Be Answered By Google.” It’s a good point. Because where do you turn for answers to your questions? Many turn almost automatically to Google. If we want information, or directions, or inspiration, ...read more

Fear Brings Callousness

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Nov 16, 2019

We have been studying fear. This lesson exposes a great danger of callousness. Doubt will always bring a hard heart or it will cause us to lose heart. Fear crushes dreams. We gradually build layer upon layer until we hinder our potential.

FEAR BRINGS CALLOUSNESS By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com TEXT: Mark 9:23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. 24 And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine ...read more

Mary: A Role Model For Today's Moms Series

Contributed by David Henderson on May 22, 2017

In this message we look at some of the ways Moms can identify with Mary, the Mother of Jesus. She no doubt experienced some of the same problems Moms today do. She would have faced ridicule, her son was hated by many and she likely lived in poverty.

FAMILY MATTERS “Mary: a Model for Today’s Moms” Luke 1:26-28 If you are not aware, for the past 16 years there has been an annual survey telling us how much money the average mom should receive for all of the jobs that she does.

The Call: Come By Pastor John Mateos Ong

Contributed by John Ong on Nov 16, 2017

God offers us a great banquet that sometimes we doubted for being too good to be true, but we can prove to ourselves that our Lord’s offer is far more than what we thought if we only surrender to him and accept His calling.

Many of us have been blinded by unnecessary things that life itself offers. Prestigious car, jewelry, and a feast of delicious food are just some of what we believe are the best things to receive and attain in our lives. And because of these unnecessary things that we tend to value, we have ignored ...read more

Staying Pure In Heart

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Sep 8, 2021

In our world today, many are doubting God and turning away from Him. So how can we strengthen our faith and remain faithful? We only need to remember that Christ will one day return and rid this world of all sin, immorality, and suffering.

I want you to think about your spiritual life for a moment. How would you rank your spiritual life? Is it backsliding? Is it stagnant? Or is it growing? We're going to again use the Book of Revelation and a letter that Jesus wrote to the church in Thyatira to examine our own spiritual ...read more

Courage In The Face Of Uncertainty

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Sep 21, 2021

The global pandemic is still raging, there is doubt still clouding the minds of many concerning vaccines, masks and social distancing. We are still in the midst of hurricane season and fires are still burning in the country. Yet God’s word can provide assurance and certainty in uncertain times.

My Month Of Discipleship -

Contributed by Pastor Amos Dele Dada on Jun 10, 2020

It is with great delight that I welcome you to our month of discipleship. No doubt Jesus ministered to multitudes but he always spends more time with his disciples for obvious reasons. Jesus wants us to be his disciples and as his disciples he wants us to disciple the nations.

The Passionate Pursuit Of Effective Prayer.

Contributed by Howard Strickland on Sep 13, 2023

Psalm 3, presents another side of the biblical picture of faith in which the neat, tidy, well ordered theology of Psalm 1 and 2 gives way to a theology that allows for the realities of life– realities that include struggle, injustice, abuse, doubt, fear, and the testing of our faith.

The Passionate Pursuit Of Effective Prayer. Psalm 13:1-6 Jenny and I left our house early to be with our parents for Thanksgiving, 1996. As we left I noticed our next door neighbor’s silver van was parked in his driveway. My neighbor and I had gotten close. I didn’t know that he was a different ...read more
