A Moment Of Decision Series

Contributed by Duane Wente on May 8, 2023

Mordecai and Esther’s coziness became challenged when Haman ordered the eradication of the Jews. The time had come for them to stand up and speak out for God. Are we willing to stand up and speak out for what is right? Maybe we have been put where we are for such a time as this!

Are The Father, Son, And Holy Spirit The Same Essence?

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on May 25, 2023

In the church, a lot of confusing language is used to try and explain or define things.

Today we will look at the Trinity, often defined as "one in ‘essence,’ three in person." What does that mean exactly? God is three Persons, and the name 'God' implies one ‘essence.’ If God is "three Persons," how can there be "one" ‘essence’? The meaning of the ...read more

The Error Of Balaam – Making Profit From The Work Of The Lord – Part 2 - Jude 1:10-11(B) Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 13, 2022

Was Balaam a great prophet? Wonderful things came from the mouth of Balaam when he blessed Israel and did not curse them. Jude makes reference to him with "the error of Balaam" but how do we see that error in churches? That is what we will consider this morning.

THE ERROR OF BALAAM – MAKING PROFIT FROM THE WORK OF THE LORD – PART 2 Jude 1:10-11(b) Jude is the book that we are seriously considering. We did Cain and Korah In Part 1 from last week. Then we were introduced to this compromising man, Balaam who was hired by Balak, king of Moab, to curse the ...read more

The Anger Issue

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Sep 4, 2022

When our temperature begins to rise, and we start to get angry over a slight or a wrong, what are we to do? I mean, is it possible to be angry and not sin? In Sunday Morning’s message will be looking at what the Bible says, “Be angry, and do not sin.”

The Anger Issue Ephesians 4:26-27 Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpH0NtBfAWY In the Apostle Paul’s letter to the church in Ephesus, he makes one of the most controversial and one of the most discussed statements from his writings, if not in the Bible itself. “Be angry, and do not sin: ...read more

Today I want to preach on A SERMON I NEED TO HEAR. And I think probably everyone here also need to hear.

LET ME ASK YOU A QUESTION? Have you ever wondered why God is so good to lost people when they do not reciprocate in their feelings toward Him?

John, The Love Gospel

Contributed by Maurice Mccarthy on Aug 2, 2023

Amazing fact, the gospel of John is the only gospel that says God loves us. Today I want to give an overview of the gospels with special emphasis on the gospel of John, and show why it is rightly called the “Love gospel.”

From Despair To Delight

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Aug 10, 2023

Watching television can be entertaining, but at the same time it can be very disconcerting to see what they do on a television program.

The reason it is upsetting to watch such movies is because we find ourselves with major ...read more

Be Wise About Self-Control Series

Contributed by David Owens on May 13, 2024

Proverbs has a lot to say about self-control as it relates to a number of things. But one of the most important areas we need to learn to exercise control is in the area of anger. Anger will destroy us without proper self-control.

The story goes like this: One day Mickey Mantle took his friend and teammate, Billy Martin, with him to hunt on another friend’s ranch. 2. When they ...read more

Contributed by Kent Kessler on Nov 5, 2024

That is the promise, “I will be their God and they will be my people” or “I am yours and you are mine.” This is marriage language. And we have a symbol of this we practice every month in communion.

When was the last time you made a promise? Did you keep it? Perhaps when you were married? A wife took her husband to counseling and in tears the woman tells the counselor that her husband doesn’t tell her he loves her. The counselor asked the husband, if that is true, and he said, “I told her I ...read more
