    The Will Of God For The Lost Series

    Contributed by Billy Ricks on May 6, 2012
     | 7,074 views

    Should we say "lost" is it another one of those words that are archaic and out of date? No the parable ofthe lost sheep, coin, and son show that God's heart is in seeking, desiring to find the lost. God's will for the lost is clear. His will for the c

    Intro: God’s will for the lost is that none should perish that all should come to repentance. This is 2 Peter 3.9. God’s Word translation gives a wonderfully clear picture of God’s will for people that are separated from Him by sin. “The Lord isn't slow to do what he ...read more

    Zechariah has been dumb for almost nine months, but now he can speak and his first words are a song of praise. Everyone recognized that John was going to be an exceptional child. It is clear that Zechariah understands that his son will be the for-runner

    Water baptism does not save you, but every believer should be baptized, because Jesus, Himself, commanded it. He said, “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

    Pray For Justice Series

    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Jun 2, 2018
     | 3,908 views

    While Scripture reveals that God is loving, merciful, and gracious—a savior of repentant sinners, one truth about Him that is decidedly unpopular today is that He is a God of vengeance against those who reject Him and salvation in His Son.

    Observing common perceptions, it has been said that God created humanity in His image and humanity has returned the favor. People have created gods in whatever form pleases them to accommodate their sinful lifestyles. God rebuked such foolish people in Psalm 50:21: “You thought that I was just like ...read more

    How Much Did Your Salvation Cost?

    Contributed by John Hamby on Dec 5, 2025
     | 284 views

    God’s grace is freely given but it certainly is not cheap! I really don’t think that it is possible for human beings to fully understand what it cost God the Father and Jesus Christ His son to offer forgiveness for our sins.

    Mary, a young virgin from an obscure village, received a divine promise that seemed impossible. She would carry the Son of God. And Elizabeth, filled with the Holy Spirit, declared a powerful truth—a truth for every disciple of Jesus today.

    Happy Father’s Day and Blessed Trinity Sunday, church! Today, we stand at a sacred intersection—celebrating both our earthly fathers and our heavenly One, as well as recognizing the mystery of God revealed as Father, Son, and Spirit.

    They Get It from Their Father ““I am telling you these things to keep you from stumbling away from the path. The tribal leaders will force you out of their gathering houses. The time will come when they will put you to death, thinking they are doing what the Great Spirit wants, all because they ...read more

    Sermon # 34 - A Life That Pleases God Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jul 9, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 438 views

    God the Father testified of Jesus saying, “This is my beloved Son with whom I am well pleased.” As children of God, it is good to constantly examine ourselves to see if our lives are pleasing to God and are in alignment with God and His word.

    Today’s meditation is based on Matthew 3:17, “A voice from heaven said, "This is my Son, the one I love. I am very pleased with him."” (ERV) God the Father testified about His Son Jesus, that He was pleased with Him. Jesus was thirty years old when He began His public ministry. At the ...read more

    To be like God is to be happy.

    Many years ago I was teaching an adult Sunday school class. Though I don’t recall the text or lesson, I remember a person and the statement she made. This woman was the mother of two teenage daughters, and her husband occasionally attended church. She said she wished you could be saved ...read more

    Actress Ally Walker said, "Being a mom is the hardest job I've ever had; but it's the most rewarding job I've ever had." I'm sure most moms share this sentiment. Moms are tough. Army slogan, "Army Strong". There's Army Strong and then there's Mom Strong.

    MOM STRONG! [Slide One] One day a young daughter came up to her Mother saying, "Mom, there are five things I'm going to be when I grow up." "Oh? What are they?" "I'm going to be a doctor, a lawyer, a scientist, an archeologist, and an actress." "Wow, that's quite a list. But what about being a ...read more

    "from Every Nation"- The Bible And Race- Pt.3 Series

     | 2,310 views

    Today, as I close out this series, I want us to consider the question: “So with the abundance of such teaching in the Scriptures denouncing racism, why has racism been such a problem for so long?”

    Over the past two weeks we have looked at the Bible and what it teaches about race and race relations. We have seen how everyone bears the image of God and should be respected as an image bearer. We have seen how we are all descendants of Adam and Eve and therefore we are all “family” being part of ...read more
