    The pastors in our community take turns preaching at the local hospital. This is the message I preached there recently. It examines the brokenness of our lives and points us to the One from whom our help comes.

    If I believe in my heart that Jesus’ return is real soon, then I have an obligation as your pastor to instruct you as to how the Bible says we should live as we approach the end

    Introduction I don’t think I am wrong when I say that this generation has moved further away from God than other generation in modern history. And because of that my view regarding the timing of the end times has changed. When I first got here at Bala Chitto in 1994, I believed with all my heart ...read more

    How Does The Bible Describe God?

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on May 9, 2025
     | 533 views

    If someone asked you to describe your best friend, you would be able to describe them thoroughly. If someone asked you to describe God according to what the scriptures says about Him, COULD YOU DESCRIBE HIM THOROUGHLY?

    It is important that we learn all we can learn about God from the scriptures. Why? • Because we really cannot WORSHIP GOD unless WE KNOW HIM. • Because we really cannot SERVE GOD unless WE KNOW HIM. • Because we cannot BECOME if we do not know what kind of God He is. You see, a lot of folks ...read more

    Show how much you have need for and appreciate one another. Paul writes, "From Him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work. (Eph. 4 :15 ,16) 12

    What are some of the Biblical guidelines in gaining others cooperation? Quote: Cooperation is best gotten when people know how much you love them and seek their best interests. People do not care how much you know until they know how much you care. 1. Ask the Lord to give you a special passion, ...read more

    The Best Reason To Forgive

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Sep 17, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 15,580 views

    We have lots of good reasons to forgive others who hurt us, but the best reason to forgive is because God has forgiven us so much more. When we learn to appreciate the full extent of God's grace, we can practice giving away that grace to others.

    Matthew 18:21-35 The Best Reason to Forgive At some point, every one of us has been hurt, sometimes quite deeply. Maybe somebody here today is hurting. The question is, will you be able to forgive and let go, to move forward with your life? Forgiveness is a choice. You don’t have to forgive, but ...read more

    I composed this letter to my 14-year-old Great-grandson when I felt he was mature enough to understand and appreciate it. It might be something you would consider to send to any boy who you felt was the same way. Notice especially the last shortened stanza.

    This is a letter I wrote to my great-grandson as he was approaching his 14th birthday. If anyone would desire to use it, I believe it would be appropriate for a boy you believe is mature enough to understand and appreciate it. I composed it following the pattern of the poem "IF" by ...read more
