    The Existence And Presence Of Almighty God, Part 1

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 16, 2023
     | 783 views

    The presence and personal interest of God in the affairs of His creation is evident to those who have eyes to see (Romans 1:18-22). He gives us proof of His existence, regardless of the world's blindness to the obvious.

    As the days draw nearer to the promised return of the Lord Jesus Christ (John 14:1-3; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; Titus 2:11-15), we are told in Scripture that humanity will not welcome Him with open arms, but will instead grow more hateful towards Him, doing everything possible to resist His ...read more

    Are We Guilty of Sleeping Through a Garden Moment? Mark 14:32-42 No doubt we have all heard this story preached, maybe we have even read it ourselves, or we have seen movies regarding the Crucifixion of Christ. He was the perfect Son, in perfect union, with the perfect Father. Mark 14:32-42 ...read more

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Forty-Seven. In his work, "What does every Bible chapter say..." John Hunt gives an overview of each chapter of the Bible. It is my intention to do the same thing here.

    GENESIS CHAPTER FORTY-SEVEN OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is that Joseph’s family settles in Egypt as the famine continues. Thomas Coke (1801) – Genesis 47 Jacob, and five of his sons, are introduced to Pharaoh, who assigns the land of Goshen to them. The Egyptians deliver ...read more

    Apology Excepted

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Aug 13, 2025
     | 335 views

    Reconciliation between people is more than an obligatory apology.

    Apology Excepted Two brothers had argued and vowed never to speak to each other until the other one apologized. They attended the same church but never said more than three words to each other. However, God began working on their hearts. They had always ignored foot washing, but on a special ...read more

    True spiritual growth often requires the courage to travel light.

    Genesis 12:1: "The Lord had said to Abram, 'Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you." Genesis 12:4: "So Abram went, as the Lord had told him; and Lot went with him." God’s instructions to Abraham were specific: leave your ...read more

    The Weight Of A Few Words - At Thy Word

    Contributed by Loyd C. Taylor on Aug 21, 2023
     | 1,984 views

    In this sermon we look at the weight of a few words, or how just a few words spoken by Christ had a major impact on the lives of those who listened and obeyed.

    INTRODUCTION: We so seldom think about the impact that our words have on those who are listening, however in many cases we find others hanging onto our words. This is especially true of preachers, so we must be careful what we say. Our words can have a negative or a positive outcome, I’m sure we ...read more

    Twenty-Seventh Sunday In Ordinary Time, Year C: Divine Passives

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Oct 3, 2025
     | 289 views

    How? By (1) being small; (2) daily fervent prayer (3) and knowing that God’s grace precedes and enables our good works, the (4) fourth is tapping into the “fulfillment formula” of God’s sovereignty by God’s divine passives.

    Walking or moving in the Opposite Spirit is a teaching from Saint Ignatius of Loyola, [Agere contra, Latin “to act against"]. This spiritual practice involves purposefully acting in the opposite direction of your natural inclinations to produce a positive spiritual resolve and result. So, the ...read more
