Jesus In The House

Contributed by Maurice Mccarthy on Apr 10, 2012

Devoted To The Things Of God

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on May 11, 2014

These early believers were devoted to prayer, one another, God, and people were being added to their number. They showed up daily in the temple courts and shared what they had e.g with the paralysed man. What can we learn?

‘And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved’ (2:47)! People being saved daily! My brothers and sisters to what degree do you want to see people being saved daily in Billericay? It would mean we’d have to learn at least seven new names a week, and ...read more

Advantages Of A Strong Small Church Pt 1

Contributed by David Welch on Aug 4, 2018

This message shares some of my thinking from a brief exploration of the character and place of the small church. I credit a large measure of my thinking to the author of the "Grasshopper Myth" by Karl Vater. I include and credit a number of quotes to him

Saved To The Uttermost Series

Contributed by Larry Grant on Jun 26, 2021

The Old Testament priesthood was only temporary. “The former priests were many in number” BUT that is because a man could only serve until he died. But Jesus has already gone through death and He will never die again...

A Life Restored Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on May 24, 2021

When non-Christians were asked what is their biggest barrier to faith, the number one answer among Americans was the following, “I have a hard time believing a good God would allow so much evil or suffering in the world.”

Today, we conclude a four-week look at one of the most interesting people in history – the man named Job. Job is a really good man. God even calls him, “…a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil …”(Job 1:8). He’s so good in fact, that God tells Ezekiel years later: ...read more

A Giving Attitude Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jan 8, 2023

The reason that your giving is about more than dollars and cents is because the bigger issue is your heart in giving. To have the right attitude in giving we must first put God as our number one priority in our lives.

When we study giving in scripture, we quickly see that giving is more than dollars and cents. It is about a proper attitude and right relationship with God. Your attitude in giving can make a difference in how your giving impacts kingdom work and glorifies God. A giving attitude means putting ...read more

Hearing God's Voice

Contributed by Melvin Maughmer, Jr. on May 17, 2020

The phrase He that hath an ear let him hear appears 14 times in the Bible this is interesting because the number 14 is considered to be a symbol of salvation and deliverance. The 14th day of the 1st Hebrew month called Nisan is the Passover.

Hearing God’s Voice By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer Jr. OPENING:- I want to start this message out by telling two brief stories. The first is:- There once was a man that whispered, “God, speak to me.” And a meadowlark sang. But the man did not hear. So the man yelled, “God, speak to me!” and ...read more

Time Spent In God's Word

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Aug 7, 2024

I wonder how much time each of you spend in God's Word each day. These numbers show a troubling imbalance in our lack of time spent in the Scripture and its damaging effect on our spiritual vitality.

If we took a poll here in our church, I wonder how much time each of you spend in God's Word each day. Research shows that the average person is exposed to anywhere between 4,000 and 10,000 messages a day. You are probably thinking, "No way do I receive that many messages." But ...read more

God Answers Prayers

Contributed by Tesh Njokanma on May 13, 2023

God has an avalanche; so many different kinds of answers to prayers in His hand. Even though there are uncountable number of people knocking at His door for answers, God never runs out of answers or gets tired of giving answers.

An Avalanche of Answers One of the benefits of coming to God is that you can’t come to God and go back empty handed. When we come to God, we receive answers to our prayers. Psalm 65:2 says, “O You who hear prayer, to You all flesh will come.” Some other versions say “You who answer, to You all ...read more

We Are Not Ignorant Of Satan’s Devices Or Schemes – Part 11 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Dec 14, 2023

We end the schemes of Satan and consider a number of issues including the way Satan destroys so much. We look again into Islamic terrorism and the wicked United Nations. Our Governments are failing the people. Also, the weapons build-up.

Why The Gospel Is Greater Than Miracles

Contributed by Michael Blitz on Jun 22, 2025

The Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus is amazing for a number of reasons. One reason that we will look at today is that Jesus makes a clear statement that what will bring people to Christ is not great miracles, but simply God's Word shared with them.

Why the Gospel is Greater than Miracles Good Morning. Our lesson this morning, Jesus’ Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus, comes in response to the Pharisees having come once again to argue with Jesus. That’s a big point to the parable, the whole idea that we so much want to try to justify ...read more
