    O Lord, Thou Hast Been Our Refuge: An Exposition Of The 90th Psalm.

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Dec 8, 2020
     | 3,912 views

    We need to see ourselves for who we truly are in the light of the eternity of God.

    Lord, Thou Hast Been our Refuge: An Exposition of the 90th Psalm The 90th Psalm is titled “A Psalm of Moses the Man of God” which probably makes this the oldest Psalm in the Bible. It has inspired great music. Isaac Watts paraphrased the words in the hymn “O God our Help in Ages Past.” This in ...read more

    The Meaning Of Easter

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jul 19, 2021
     | 2,179 views

    Jesus will give existence to your decomposed bodies. He allows no one to go out of existence.

    Had you chosen to visit the Christian Quarter of Jerusalem today to celebrate Easter, you would no doubt want to visit the central shrine that is all probability the place of Jesus' death, burial, and Resurrection. And while no one is absolutely certain that this is indeed the location of the ...read more

    Those Who Mourn Series

    Contributed by J. Yeargin on Nov 4, 2005

     | 3,912 views

    II. We must understand how destructive sin is. A. How are we supposed to “mourn”? 1. Like at a funeral of a lost family member? 2. Like when we did something wrong by accident or on purpose?

    Introduction: As we continue our series, let’s back up for a moment and consider what has just transpired in the life of Christ. In the last two verses of the previous chapter we can see that Jesus had become very famous with His healings and miracles. “Great multitudes of people” from ...read more

    Finishing Well

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Oct 23, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 25,230 views

    Paul calls us to count the present as a gift of God, make peace with the past, and rest assured in the future God has in store for those who are his. (This sermon could easily be modified into a funeral/memorial service message.)

    2 Timothy 4:6-8 Finishing Well Did you know the human condition is 100% fatal? How about that for a sermon starter? But the truth is, unless Jesus returns first, we will each reach that moment where we cross over from this life to eternity. What will it be like? Will we be at peace? Will we be ...read more

    Bread, Water And Rest

    Contributed by Steve Anderson on Dec 18, 2014
     | 6,063 views

    Funeral sermon for a 16-year old who took his life by suicide at 3 AM by gunshot. It is based on what God provided Elijah when he wanted to die. Its intent is to offer the equivalent of bread, water and rest to the grieving, especially peers and family.

    Background (1 Kings 18): 450 idol prophets; 2 altars, 1 fire; Elijah stood up to 450 prophets of Baal but ran for his life when one woman threatened him (1 Kings 19:3-8). Elijah wanted to die, he had poured out his life for God and felt it had no impact. He was tired and in despair, depressed. ...read more

    The Body Of Christ – Part Ii Series

    Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Mar 11, 2016
     | 6,183 views

    There is only one body, but many members. We are all dependent on one another. It is not just the pastor’s job to care for the members of the body—that would be humanly impossible. Each member must function as he or she is called.

    We continue our study of His Church and begin by looking at 1 Corinthians 12. (1 Cor 12:13 NKJV) For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body; whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free; and have all been made to drink into one Spirit. 1 Cor 12:14 For in fact the body is not one ...read more

    I would like to thank Pastor Jerry Shirley for sharing this series on Acts. It has been a blessing as well as a great help. I have used these for our church, as I spend my days caring for my dying father.

    The Mystery of Providence and the Majesty of Peace Acts 12:1-25 They say there’s two side to every story but my baby sister will tell you there’s three. There is your side, my side and the truth. When we look at Acts chapter 12 there seems to be 3 sides to this story as well. What we ...read more

    This is an illustrative sermon using different methods of fishing; mostly fly fishing to show how the Devil entices us into Sin... excellent sermon for pastors who love illustrative sermons.

    The Lures of Temptations. James 1:13-18 Next week we will be celebrating Mothers Day. Next week there will be time for you to share a short testimony about your mom and what she means to you, so be thinking about that and what you might share.

    How does the congregation relate to the PK? As a pastor do you ever stop and put yourself in your kid’s shoes? This message has specifics that answer bith these questions.

    The PK (Preacher’s Kid) and You Have you ever had one of those days where it seemed that nothing goes your way? Recently I was having one of those kind of days until I heard the testimony of a pastor who shared the story of his daughter and son. His daughter, at the age of six, was struck by an ...read more

    Installation of Assistant Pastor. How may a young woman make an impact? By acknowledging that it was God who brought her to this time and place, and by laying down her very life for the task.

    A young woman in a very difficult situation. A crisis moment, for which no training could have fully prepared her. A dangerous moment, one in which the future of a whole people lay in the balance. She had little power, in the usual sense. She wielded no authority, commanded no troops, had access ...read more

    This is a verse by verse interpretation of the prayer of Christ in John 17. Many issues are addressed in this sermon. What Christ expects of His church, what Christ expects of His Pastors, etc...

    Christ’s Prayer For His Church John 17:1-26 There was a little boy in a church service in Kentucky who was crying and interrupting the church service.

    What does the Bible say about the existence and nature of God? Is it alright to speculate what God is like or is that idolatry? Join Pastor Steve as he teaches on "The Doctrine of God."

    “On January 7, 1855, the minister of New Park Street Chapel, Southwark, England, opened his morning sermon as follows: ‘It has been said by someone that “the proper study of mankind is man.” I will not oppose the idea, but I believe it is equally true that the proper study of God’s elect is God; ...read more

    The parable not only applies to those who have never met Christ, it also applies to those Christians who have lost their way in the busyness of their lives - vicars and pastors included!!

    Luke 15:1-10 Parable of the Lost Sheep Story: A young man who had been raised as an atheist –was training to be an Olympic diver.

    How do you respond to God? Do you "bless" Him? What does that mean? Join Pastor Steve as he explains the meaning of 1 Peter 1:3.

    Peter tells his readers to “Bless” God. That phrase is very similar to what we saw in our study of Psalm 103:1-4, where David said: “Bless the Lord, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name! Bless the Lord, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your ...read more
