    Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Dec 13, 2014
     | 3,040 views

    We hear so much about how to win... Perhaps we need to study how do teams lose? We need to check our attitudes and team work.

    LET US STUDY: HOW TO LOSE? By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com I have seen several studies on how to win? I even saw a book the title was clear... GOD WANTS YOU TO WIN.. I saw another book about DIETING FOR JESUS, GOD DOES NOT WANT ANY FATTIES. PEOPLE TEND TO TAKE LIFE AS A GAME... WE ...read more

    God’s List Of Do’s And Don’ts 2 Of 3

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 15, 2022
     | 997 views

    Again, I want to remind you that God gave us the ten commandments to tell us what HE LIKES, and what HE DISLIKES.

    This is important, because it would not be fair for God to hold us responsible on the judgment day, if we did not KNOW WHAT IS and WHAT IS NOT acceptable unto him. Illus: That would be like going down a highway without any speed limit signs, and the highway patrolman pulling you over, and giving ...read more

    Thermometer Or Thermostat: Which Are You?

    Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 9, 2022
     | 5,457 views

    A thermometer tells how hot or cold something or someone is. It doesn’t try to change its environment. A thermostat, on the other hand, alters the temperature. Christians should be thermostats, changing their neighborhoods, families, work, etc.

    THERMOMETER OR THERMOSTAT: WHICH ARE YOU? Mt. 5:16 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A Pastor told one of his faithful church members, “Mrs. Smith, I appreciate your devotion. You are present at all the services!” 2. Mrs. Smith: “Yes, it’s such a relief, at the end of a long, hard week, to come to ...read more

    God's Purpose (Father's Day 2018)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 21, 2021
     | 1,886 views

    The father and son (Tug McGraw and Tim McGraw—- withheld till the end like Paul Harvey’s style) that I speak of this morning are both famous. Though they were separated for many years, it is more than obvious that God’s “purpose” was at work in bringing them together.

    GOD’S PURPOSE Text: Romans 8:28 Our church secretary Paula (at Indian Field UMC) often shares insightful thoughts for the day that come from a daily calendar she has. The one that she shared from May 11, 2018 fits very well with the message for today. It reads… “God’s purpose is greater ...read more

    Nailprints Don’t Lie!

    Contributed by John Gaston on Apr 6, 2020
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,497 views

    The Lord Jesus intentionally chose a skeptic as one of the 12. Jesus proved beyond any shadow of doubt to the rationalist, Thomas, that He was resurrected from the dead. Thomas died preaching Him in India, because he knew that, "Nailprints don't lie!"

    NAILPRINTS DON’T LIE! John 20:1-8, 24-31 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Gentle Persuasion 1. Ms. Smith was assigned to be a monitor on the playground and caught little Johnny making ugly faces and scaring other kids. 2. Smiling sweetly, she said, “Johnny, when I was a child I was told that if I made ...read more

     | 200 views

    So is envy a problem for people today? Most assuredly, envy is currently very evident in our culture.

    Alba 11-16-2025 LOVE DOES NOT ENVY I Corinthians 13:4 Dwight L. Moody once told the fable of an eagle who was envious of another that could fly better than he could. One day the bird saw a sportsman with a bow and arrow and said to him, “I wish you would bring down that eagle up there.” The man ...read more

    Contributed by Mark Schaeufele on Oct 18, 2024
     | 1,018 views

    A Pastor’s heart is one that cares about his flock in such a way that they want to follow Jesus the same way they do.

    A Pastor’s Heart Text: Acts 20:1-7 Introduction 1. Illustration: When I was in Bible college, one of my professors showed me great honor by telling me, “Mark, you are an unusual combination of the head of a scholar and the heart of a pastor.” 2.

    encounter with Jesus

    Intro: over the last few years there have been a lot of people claiming to have seen UFO’s or to have had encounters with alien beings.

    Legalization Of Drugs Won't Usher In A Utopian State

    In an article on dope legalization appearing in the 2/28/95 edition of the Diamondback, one of the paper's columnists abandoned sound conservative principles for the drug-induced hallucinations of libertarianism.

     | 1,736 views

    We, like John, often have expectations of Christ Jesus that are not totally in accord with his will for us.

    Matthew 11:2 – 11 / Wait For Another? Intro: Not long ago, Barbara and I ordered a set of footstools that we saw in a catalog. The description said they were a deep chocolate brown. The picture was of a rich, dark, chocolate, almost black color. We ordered them and anxiously waited for them to ...read more

    based on 14 ratings
     | 6,611 views

    A short talk given to 480 school children plus their parents most of whom are not yet Christians but love Christmas. A challenging message to give ourselves to God in response to his priceless gift to us.

    I had an email from my friend Frederic in Rwanda yesterday. He was telling me that the children at his Church will be gathering with their parents at 2 pm on Christmas Eve for singing, dancing, and drama. There won’t be any food on offer as the Church is not able to feed such a large number. When ...read more
