    Discerning The Times

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Aug 5, 2022
     | 3,592 views

    Why is it important to use discernment.

    Discerning the Times Luke 12:49-56 The Revised Common Lectionary sometimes has a very awkward passage selection. In this case, the passage begins in the middle of a discourse by Jesus. If one has not read the previous portion of the discourse, one might not understand this passage as one ought. ...read more

    How Can We Know The Gospel Is Not Fake News? Series

    Contributed by Art Campbell on Aug 8, 2022
     | 2,224 views

    The work of the Spirit is evidence of the Gospel’s truth

    FAKE NEWS & KNOWING WHAT IS TRUE Earlier this year the Macquarie Dictionary declared ‘fake news’ to be the word of the year. It’s an interesting commentary on society! So is the runner-up – mainsplain (but I think that’s fake news). Sometimes fake news is deliberately deceptive, but the word is ...read more

    A Labor Day message about work.

    Working for God 2 Thessalonians 3:6-15 September 3, 2023 Do you remember your first job? My first job was working at a now extinct pharmacy, called Dabs Pharmacy.

    #35. Who Stands In The Breach? Series

    Contributed by James Jackson on Sep 3, 2023
     | 2,921 views

    Ezekiel 22:30 has been the theme verse for lots of men's ministries. It is definitely compelling to think we might be the man God is looking for to stand in the gap. But the truth is, we are missing the point.

    Who Stands in the Breach? Ezekiel 22: 23-31, 2 Kings 25:1-4 Good morning! Please turn in your Bibles to Ezekiel 22:23. Page 664 in the pew Bibles. On October 4, 1997, me and about a dozen men from the church I was serving at the time jumped on a bus at about 2 in the morning and drove 400 miles ...read more

    Man Has Twisted, Contorted, Inverted, And Opposed All God’s Creation – Part 2 - Genesis Chapter 1 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 4, 2023
     | 975 views

    We continue the study in Genesis chapter 1 to see how sinful and deluded man has overturned all that God set in place, inverting and destroying it. We especially look at evolution and God is Light. Man’s inversion of God’s order causes chaos and growing evil.

    MAN HAS TWISTED, CONTORTED, INVERTED, AND OPPOSED ALL GOD’S CREATION – PART 2 GENESIS CHAPTER 1 In Part 1 we looked at how man has taken what belongs to God and cancelled God out of the whole matter. The self-deceived in the world dismiss God and His creation and wallow in their own intelligence ...read more

    This parable teaches us to keep our eyes focused on the hope that is to come.

    Cub Hannah, of Swamp Branch KY, was a mean drunk. And he was both mean and drunk on June 11, 1999, when he took a machete to his brother in law, Sam Lugar, out in Lugar's front yard...

    More important than knowing WHEN Jesus is coming is remembering that he HAS come, and he WILL come.

    How many of you read the comic strip Peanuts? Anybody here NOT read Peanuts? Tell me, what do you think when you see Lucy with the football, holding it for Charlie Brown to kick?

    The Millennial Reign And Judgment Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Sep 25, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,444 views

    Study #11: This study examines the Millennial Reign. Satan is bound and believers reign with Christ for 1000 years. Afterward, the devil is released and rises up against the saints in one final deception and rebellion before the Judgment.

    NOTE: This Bible study on the end times comes from the perspective of a pre-tribulation Rapture. Tonight, we will be looking at Revelation chapter 20. We are going to start by examining what happens during the 1000-year period after the battle of Armageddon, by observing how Satan is bound and ...read more

    Idols

    Contributed by Je Layugan on Oct 17, 2023
     | 2,280 views

    Everyone is a fan of something or someone, but we must exercise caution and be mindful of the dangers of idolatry. Because a simple admiration or desire can turn into idolatry. Idolatry is often a good thing that becomes a god thing. That will eventually create a barrier between us and God.

    To become a fan is generally fine. “Everyone is a fan of something or someone, but we must exercise caution and be mindful of the dangers of idolatry. Because a simple admiration or desire can turn into idolatry. Idolatry is often a good thing that becomes a "god thing". That will ...read more

    People want their happiness more than anything else. God wants our holiness more than anything else. If we seek a holy life as spelled out in the beatitudes, we will find happiness.

    THE SECRET OF HAPPINESS - GOODNESS, SERVICE AND HOPE “Blessed (happy, to be envied) are you who mourn, etc… Matt. 5:3 / Luke 6:20 We are all searching for the same thing.

    Satan, the tempter, the accuser, the lier, a thief, For temptation, primarily, satan uses 3 areas of the flesh: 1. The lust of the flesh. 2. The lust of the eye. 3. The pride of life.

    We Win! Matthew 4:1-3 Bishop Fulton Sheen said, “Rivers follow the course of least resistance. That's why they are so crooked.” This I'm sure of, “We cannot afford to take the course of least resistance when it comes to temptation.” We have to follow the truth of scripture and our ...read more

     | 4,347 views

    Why did the women head to the tomb while it was dark? What did it take for them to understand that Jesus is alive? Answers to these questions and more are available in this message from our Family Minister Scott Jewell.

    Read Mark 16:1-7 Pray. (During the prayer, have the techs turn off all lights, we used black slides so screens appeared to be off as well, act confused for a minute as to what happened, then assure the church that the techs will figure it out as we continue in the dark.

    Is There Evidence That Jesus Christ Is Alive After Death? An Examination Of The Facts

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 10, 2023
     | 1,375 views

    For me, it’s obvious that Jesus Christ is alive right now. Because he changed my life forever. He set me free from sins and addictions. He changed my family. My grandpa. My mom. He’s still changing lives everyday in this very city, and across the face of the Earth.

    If Jesus is dead then I’m a fraud. If Jesus is dead right now, then we’re all a joke. The atheists would be right. The world would be right. All the good in the world wouldn’t really be good, all the bad wouldn’t really be bad, all our work would be for nothing, and our lives would be truly ...read more

    The world is setting itself against the ways of God and persecution is headed our way. How do we prepare ourselves so we can stand firm in our faith. Check out these thoughts from our Family Minister Scott Jewell.

    Read text. Pray. Francis Chan has long been a favorite preacher/author of mine. Over the years he has shared many ideas that are very similar to those of our brotherhood. For instance, there’s a meme where he says, “If the Bible and I don’t agree, I must be wrong.” He has spoken of being ...read more
