Something else is revealed in the gospel as well and Paul uses the struggle of the Roman church to demonstrate an essential truth: The Gospel is for Everybody because Everybody Needs the Gospel.

Recovered By Grace: Everybody Introduction Last week we began our series through Romans under the theme Recovered by Grace. We talked about the background of the letter to the Roman church and the clash of cultures that was driving struggles there. We ended on one of the best known verses in ...read more

Gal 5:1-15 FREED TO BE LIKE CHRIST Paul concluded chapter 4 emphasizing the truth that we, as Christians, are no longer living under the slavery to the law. • We are children of the promise, living in the freedom that Christ has obtained for us through the cross. • He uses the ...read more

For Growing Love Series

Contributed by Scott Jewell on Feb 18, 2024

Paul's love for the church of Philippi motivated his prayers for them. What does this demonstrate for us as we pray for our churches today?

This past Wednesday, we celebrated Valentine’s Day. So it seems appropriate that we talk about a prayer about growing love since the idea of love is on people’s minds. I had to chuckle when I saw this meme on Facebook and shared it with someone who had posted to see if anyone would like ...read more

Make Me A Blessing (2 Of 3)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Aug 15, 2024

This is the second sermon in this series on MAKE ME A BLESSING. When the apostle Paul writes to young Timothy and us to be a blessing we have to a “Man or Woman God.”

But he does not leave him guessing what it takes to be a MAN OF GOD. In verse 11 he tells him and us as we saw in last week’s sermon… 1) We must FLEE from sin. 2) And today in this sermon he instructs us there are somethings we must FOLLOW after. Look at 1 Timothy 6:11 But thou, O man of God, ...read more

Knowledge, Love And Example

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Jun 16, 2025

So the church was split. In our society, eating meat sacrificed to idols is no longer an issue. But at least three principles Paul teaches in this passage are as relevant as ever.

Standing Firm In The Face Of Deception

Contributed by Ronald Moore on May 13, 2024

Let us heed the words of Paul and remain vigilant against deception. Let us hold fast to the truth of the gospel and stand firm in our faith.

Today, we gather in the presence of the Lord to delve into the scriptures, specifically focusing on 2 Thessalonians 2:3, where Paul admonishes the church in Thessalonica, saying, "Let no one deceive you in any way.

The Challenge To Care

Contributed by John Dobbs on May 23, 2024

One way Paul is going to encourage this is by getting to the root of their greatest interest - and often ours - he wants them to join in concern for others by donating funds.

The Challenge to Care 1 Corinthians 16:1-14 Introduction In the concluding chapters of his first letter to the Corinthians, Paul has called us to answer the challenge to Serve, to Love, to Believe, and now to Care. It’s easy to see how the Corinthian church could struggle with caring about ...read more

The Gospel's Beautiful Fruit

Contributed by Paul Dayao on Sep 15, 2025

We see in this sermon how the Apostle Paul celebrates the beautiful fruit of faith, love, and hope that is produced in our lives by the life-changing truth of the Gospel.

As the Apostle Paul begins his letter to the church in Colossae, he doesn't start with a list of problems or a deep theological lecture. He starts with gratitude. He begins by saying, "Thank you." Paul is overflowing with thankfulness for these believers. But what is he thankful for? ...read more

The Gospel Among The Nations Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Apr 3, 2025

There is much for Paul to thank God about for the church in Rome at the time he wrote this letter. It was reported all over the world about the faith of the church there.

Paul had a driving passion. That passion was to follow his Lord Jesus Christ and make him known among the nations. When Paul wrote this letter to the church in Rome, he was toward the end of what we call his third missionary journey. He had spent the last twenty years of his life focused on making ...read more

The Hour To Wake From Sleep

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 25, 2025

St. Paul writes to the Romans today, and his words are perfect directions for the time of Advent. We must know the time, the hour to rise from sleep.

First Sunday of Advent 2025 The Introit psalm of today’s Advent liturgy is attributed to King David, who is clearly praying in a time of difficulty. He cries, “I lift up my soul to you, O my God. In you have I trusted; let me not be put to shame, nor let my enemies exult over me. Let none who hope ...read more
