    Not A Heretic Hunter

    Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Jan 12, 2022
     | 2,264 views

    These days you do not have to hunt heresy as it comes right out of the darkness and parades itself in the open field.

    We live in an age where no one likes to be challenged or corrected. I do not like to be wrong, but I have told congregations to go home and study the Word after a sermon to be sure I know what I am talking about. If I do not, do not leave me ...read more

    Ephesians: Your Identity In Christ (3)

    Contributed by Scott Bayles on Mar 7, 2019
     | 4,974 views

    In Ephesians 4, we discover who we are in Christ by learning about the head of the church, the hands of the church, and the heart of the church.

    Ephesians | Your Identity in Christ (3) Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 10/12/2014 Play: “Me Church” Video The last couple of weeks we’ve been exploring the New Testament book of Ephesians. As I said last week, Ephesians is all about identity, which made me think earlier ...read more

    Have you ever wished you could go back and start over? You can begin again by entrusting your life into the Master’s hands. You can begin again by allowing God to shape your life by His skilled, purposeful, and loving hands.

    JEREMIAH 18:1-6 BEGINNING AGAIN The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord saying, (2) “Arise and go down to the potter’s house, and there I will announce My words to you.” (3) Then I went down to the potter’s house, and there he was, making something on the wheel. (4) But the vessel that ...read more

    A Christmas message taught on a Wednesday night this year with parts of the outline influenced by a book called Handfuls of Purpose from 1943.

    Zechariah’s story Luke 1:5-25 Intro: When it comes to the Christmas story, most…if not all of us, probably know the particulars of it by heart. We know about the parents, the manger and the inn keeper. We know all about the shepherds and the heavenly host inviting them to Bethlehem. We even throw ...read more

    Childishness And Small Religion

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 27, 2025
     | 149 views

    Jesus calls us to lay down childish stubbornness and take His hand in trusting, growing childlikeness that welcomes the Kingdom.

    Have you noticed that Jesus holds two ideas in tension? He tells us to be childlike …and also warns us not to be childish. Only Jesus can say, “Become as little children” and “Grow up”…in the very same breath. He sees what we cannot. He can tell the difference. Our passage today is Luke 7:31-35. ...read more

    We may share in his creative work through faith, or we may forget the power of his shaping hands and look to our own ingenuity, our own capacity to market and manage our Christian fellowship. The security of God's people lies only in the Potter's Hand.

    Opening illustration: I read a story of a woman on vacation that was shopping in the finest stores. One day she saw the most beautiful cup she had ever seen. She went in bought the cup and every day she would take the cup out and admire it. She would even talk to the cup and say, ...read more

    Message #1 in the Book of James series dealing with what is known of James’ background and the opening salutation of his epistle.

    A Study of the Book of James #1 - A Little Man With a Big Message By Pastor Jim May This epistle is called "general", because not written to any particular person, as the epistles to Timothy, Titus, and Philemon are; nor to any particular churches, as the epistles to the Romans, Corinthians, &c. ...read more

    Creation In Six Days? Really?

     | 9,156 views

    This lessons lays open the mistakes and fallacies of some scientific evidence claiming the earth is millions or billions of years old.

    Genesis tells us God created the water covered Earth, Light, Sky, Dry Land and Plants in only three days. Then He made the Sun, Moon, and Stars. The fifth day saw the creation of Fish and Birds. Finally, on the sixth day. God created the Animals and Man. Yet, some say, “Six days? Really? Nobody ...read more

    O Little Town Of Bethlehem

    Contributed by J Jeffrey Smead on Dec 23, 2012
    based on 73 ratings
     | 55,147 views

    In forty brief words, Micah tells the story of a very special town. Though his words may be brief, they contain a wealth of spiritual truth. The Story Of Bethlehem is a special story that needs to be told and retold. Especially in these days.

    For those not familiar with an Anglican Service; there are four Scripture Readings before the Sermon. The Scripture Readings for this day were: Micah 5: 2-5; Psalm 80:1-7; Hebrews 10:5-10 and Luke 1:39-55. (This Message was reworked December 2015). In 1865, ...... shortly after the Civil war,.... ...read more

    Series: Limiting The Holy One Of Israel (Part 2: Jesus Could Do Not Much Miracles In His Own Hometown Except... Why?)

    Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Mar 10, 2020
     | 5,518 views

    Jesus, the local boy, leaves town and makes it big in the world - and returns with great following. He has shaken the religious establishment, nation & Roman world. You would expect his own to applaud him & see God's work displayed through Him. But no - He does few miracles. Why?

    DO NOT LIMIT THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL (PART 2) JESUS COULD DO NOT MUCH MIRACLES IN HIS OWN HOMETOWN EXCEPT... 1. Mark 6:1 Jesus left there and went to his hometown, accompanied by his disciples. 2 When the Sabbath came, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard him were amazed. “Where ...read more

    Christmas is for the purpose of humanity to become partakers of the divine nature.

    And this will be a sign for you: you will find an infant wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger.” Luke 2:12 A baby- Appearances can deceive.

    Ruth, The Unlikely One Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Dec 31, 2023
     | 2,692 views

    The Lord is using all the circumstances to bring forth his salvation history. Through the hand of God Boaz, a “worthy man” is brought into Ruth’s life.

    The Lord uses the unlikely. In Corinth Paul told the believers not many of you were influential or of noble birth when you were called. That was true for Ruth also. She was the furthest thing from nobility, and she had no influence. She was a cursed Moabite woman. Being one of the unlikely ones was ...read more

    Be open to being used in whatever way you can, the impact is yet to be seen but will forever be felt by someone else.

    Intro 1: Good morning! Welcome again to our English service, I say that so often, but just speaking makes that phrase redundant. Bottom line, I’m happy you are here, I’m happy you are signed in, I’m glad we can worship together today, whatever that looks like. It has been a very interesting 9/10 ...read more

    Acting the part of St. Paul I spoke frankly to the church that I had a hand in planting twenty years ago

    A Critical Age - Numbers 11-4-25 the Message Bible It is strange for me today to be a guest speaker in what is my home church. I can’t help but think of St. Paul who planted churches and then when he had opportunity or God’s calling he would visit them to look in on their ...read more
