    Thanks For All The Phoebes In Our Church

    Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 29, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,643 views

    Paul speaks of 14 different Christians leaders in Romans 16. Phoebe is listed first among these Christians. What was it that made her so special? Every church has its Phoebes. Pastors need to salute the Phoebes in their churches.

    THANKS FOR THE PHOEBES IN OUR CHURCH Romans 16:1-2 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: EASTER HUMOR 1. Did you hear about the man who was driving down the road and accidentally ran over the Easter Bunny? He swerved to avoid hitting him, but the rabbit jumped right in front of his car. 2. His basket of eggs ...read more

    Go Home

    Today, our world is facing a terrible disaster and too many Christians are running in the wrong direction. I believe that it is time to become "spiritual first res-ponders" and start running toward the disaster. Thanks to Pastor Ben Gutierre

    “GO HOME” Mark 7: 4 When we see disasters, on the news, we most often remember the masses of people running FROM the disaster. But we also notice those who are running toward the trouble. We see the first res-ponders who rush in or people rushing home to do what they can to save their ...read more

    Transformed In Christ Series

    The letter to Titus, although written to the young pastor, has much to say to the church and individual believers. Following our transformation in Christ, we have an obligation to live in a way that pleases Him and reveals His grace before others.

    Transformed in Christ Titus 3: 1-7 Although Paul’s letter to Titus was brief in comparison to some of the other letters he had written, the Apostle shared much with the young pastor. He had provided sound wisdom in regard to settling the church on a firm foundation, implementing a plan that would ...read more

    Make Me A Donkey

     | 8,255 views

    I got the outline from a sermon preached by Dr. Joe Arthur, pastor of Harvest Baptist Tabernacle in Jonesboro, GA. preached at Sword of the Lord Conference at Gospel Light Baptist Church. The Donkey had to be BOUGHT, BROUGHT and BROKEN.

    Introduction - Luke 19:29-40 Bethphage and Bethany are across the valley from Jerusalem. It is only populated as people were preparing for a feast in the Temple. Like Madison/Mayodan/Stoneville/Eden before a Martinsville NASCAR race. Jesus is preparing for the “Triumphal Entry” into ...read more

    Gifted (Part Two) Series

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on May 21, 2018
     | 6,119 views

    In my first installment of this series I said that the gifts of the Spirit are from God and we need to use them for his purposes. Today we will see that a big part of my job as a Pastor is to equip you for works of service.

    GIFTED (part two) 1) I need to prepare you. Eph. 4:11-16, "It was he who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, to prepare God’s people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity ...read more

    Get Up And Encourage Someone!

    Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Oct 25, 2017
     | 5,290 views

    I have weighed recently the compassion fatigue that we all face. A pastor quietly lay the pistol to his head, his load had been so heavy, did anyone care? Maybe we miss it sometimes?

    GET UP AND ENCOURAGE SOMEONE… WHO COULD ENCOURAGE TODAY?

    Not What We Expected

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jul 9, 2018
     | 6,265 views

    Opposition to the Good News of Jesus Christ is nothing new. The first 12 pastors were instructed how to deal with it. Think long and hard how you respond to the message of the Good News as there are consequences depending on your reaction.

    Not What We Expected Mark 6:1-13 Jesus said that; ““A prophet is not without honor except in his own town, among his relatives and in his own home.” “He was amazed at their lack of faith.” Mark 6:4 Sometimes people think they know you. They think they know your family and your family ...read more

    Who Are We Really? Series

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Oct 1, 2016
     | 7,866 views

    Most Christians identify themselves by affiliations or labels. We are Pastor so and so or Apostle so and so or we are Baptists, Methodists, Catholic, etc. The Bible doesn't use any of these to describe who we are in God's eyes.

    DRAWN INTO THE FAMILY OF GOD Romans 8:12-17 1. The mortification of sin (Romans 8:12-14) Paul has just commented that “if Christ is in you the body is dead on account of sin” (Romans 8:10). And that “the Spirit of Him who raised up Jesus from the dead will also quicken (revivify, make alive) ...read more

    Jesus Came For Everyone

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 1, 2021
     | 1,378 views

    Jesus established His church to be open to all who wanted to worship Him. Why does today's not believe this? As a Jewish convert and pastor I have been on the receiving end of Anti-semitism in church.

    Jesus’ attitude and language used in the narrative can be shocking to the reader. How can our Lord and Savior treat anyone in the way He is portrayed in this narrative? The pagan woman was looking for her daughter to be cured. Instead of immediately helping her, He calls her a dog, thus insulting ...read more

    Are you doing the Lord's work the Lord's way? In this message, Pastor Steve looks at how Paul did ministry while on his 2nd missionary journey and how he ministered to the Corinthians.

    INTRODUCTION Please take God's Word and turn with me to 1 Corinthians chapter 16 We are close to concluding our study in this wonderful book Today we're looking at verses 5-12 Read 1 Corinthians 16:5-12 There are two ministries the church has been commissioned to: evangelism and ...read more

    Minister On Purpose Series

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on May 5, 2021
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,161 views

    This message looks at ministry or service. “Every believer isn’t a pastor, but every believer is called into ministry. God calls all believers to minister to the world and the church. Service in the body isn’t optional for Christians” - Rick Warren

    This morning we’ll be viewing the purpose of “ministry” or “service.” In The Purpose Driven Life, Rick Warren says, “Growing up, you may have thought that being ‘called’ by God was something only missionaries, pastors, nuns, and other ‘full-time’ church workers experienced, but the Bible says ...read more

    Taken from the Sermon Central series and heavily edited, in this final sermon in "The Path" series, Pastor John teaches on what happens when it seems we can't get to our dreams.

    Unreachable Destinations The Path CCCAG 11/7/21 Scripture- Proverbs 13:12 So far in our series on The Path, we’ve learned that: 1. Your direction determines your destination. (Pr. 7:6-27) 2.

    A Wedding Message

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 4, 2023
     | 845 views

    A message presented at the wedding of a young man who was born during a previous pastorate. The young man, now twenty-five years of age, is a vibrant follower of Christ as is his bride. I was privileged to be invited to share in this special event.

    Would [the parents of the bride], and [the parents of the groom], please stand. You have acknowledged that your children are a heritage from the Lord, and you have faithfully given of yourselves to bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord. Now, they have come to a time of mature ...read more

    I have been a pastor 45 years... I am sad to say as a whole few know their spiritual purpose. If we do not know our purpose how will we ever accomplish God's goals?
