  • Encouragement And Consolation, But Not Comfort Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 8, 2013
     | 4,293 views

    God gives us abundant consolations in our ministry, but does not grant us the privilege to be comfortable.

    The God of Consolation Monday of Tenth Week in Course 2013 St. Paul seems almost obsessed in today’s reading with the word paraklesis. In seven verses he uses some form of the word at least nine times. Paul is certainly trying to tell the Corinthians, and us, something ...read more

  • The Marks Of Maturity

    Contributed by Nigel Heath on Mar 4, 2016
     | 6,981 views

    Only when we can say, 'For me to live is Christ' can we truly say, 'to die is gain'. Spiritual maturity is the outcome of a life truly surrendered to Jesus Christ as Lord.

    INTRO Away back in the 1980’s when I began ministry at Abbeyhill Baptist Church a fellow Minister in the City was faced with a problem. A homeless person had turned up at church and the church did not know what to do with him. Rather than doing nothing this colleague who was the Pastor of ...read more

    Church at Thyatira Revelation 2:18-29 March 11, 2012 If you were going on a vacation — would you go to Elgin, Illinois; Erie, Pennsylvania; or Flint, Michigan? They don’t sound like overly attractive towns; you wouldn’t choose them for your honeymoon. If you were to go there, ...read more

  • The Price Of Freedom

    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,411 views

    We must understand that Christ paid the ultimate price for our freedom from sin and the clutches of Satan. The price of our freedom from sin was paid in blood. How do we respond to that sacrifice will ultimately determine our eternity too!

    Opening illustration: When I talked to some young men shortly before D-day during Gulf War II, I observed that they were scared. None of them wanted to die. However, the vast majority expressed their conviction that the cause for which they were fighting was right and worthy of the risk. Queen ...read more

    How do you wear your scars?

    As I was trimming the fuzzy remnants of hair on the crown of my bald head I noticed the scar from the head injury I received in the car accident that killed my Dad in 1959. The gash was deep enough that they told my Mom that had it gone another half inch it would have killed me. For many years ...read more

  • Last-Days Survival Kit

    based on 1 rating
     | 10,944 views

    Jesus gives us key strategies to survive the coming end days.

    Those must have been frightening words to hear from their Lord. It’s Jesus’ warning of the coming storm that would return over and over and over again until he returned. Wars have NEVER ceased, persecution has continued, rebellion is still going on. Much of what Jesus told his ...read more

  • The High Cost Of Standing For Jesus Series

    Contributed by Doug Fannon on Jan 28, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,736 views

    Standing for Jesus may extract a high price, and sometimes it is not from the world, but from those those within the church.

    Opening the eyes of the blind. Though this 9th chapter of John is about Jesus giving sight to a man born blind, but there is so much more here. The physical eyes being opening is not nearly as significant as the spiritual eyes. The blind man’s spiritual eyes where being opened and he was seeing ...read more

  • All In For Our Lord Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 21, 2020
     | 1,408 views

    Almost certainly in our lifetime we will also have to follow Christ to our own cross. Probably not a bloody martyrdom, but the culture hates the Church and all who follow Christ.

    Monday of the 24th and Last Week in Course 2020 Bl. Miguel Agustin Pro Today, in the glaring light of our proclamation on Sunday that Jesus Christ is the King of the Universe, we are invited to consider the virtues of those who will be found worthy to live forever in that marvelous, unimaginably ...read more

  • "i Will Proclaim The Truth" Series

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 24, 2020
     | 2,775 views

    The Bible says that both people and society will grow more wicked as the time approaches for the return of the Lord Jesus Christ. The preacher is to face this with the soul-convicting, life transforming power of the Word and Spirit, no matter the cost.

    Anyone who makes the ridiculous statement that the Bible is merely a human book, and nothing more than a collection of inspiring stories has let others do their thinking for them, mimicking someone else's skepticism, or have claimed to have read it to end up condemning what it says about the ...read more

    Daniel-the lions didn’t hurt him! Introduction: After Babylon fell to the Medes and Persians, Daniel’s life was spared and he was given a position under the new rulers. Eventually some of the other officials became jealous and conspired to have Daniel put to death—by being thrown into a den of ...read more

    God often does the unexpected when we’re earnest in prayer.

    A week ago, I listened to the Voice of the Martyr’s podcast called VOM Radio and learned about Petr Jasek, a believer from the Czech Republic, who was imprisoned in Sudan for 14 months. He served as the Africa Regional Director for Voice of the Martyrs and traveled to Sudan on their behalf. BTW, ...read more

  • Trust After Tragedy

    Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Jul 23, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,763 views

    Trust is easy in the easy times. Tragedy is when you find out if you truly trust.

    I was asked how you have trust or faith after tragedy and an hour or so later Pastor Mike asked me to speak tonight. I took that as my cue to speak on that topic. I have been through a few tragedies in my life and never thought of myself as a trauma survivor until I was trained to ...read more
