God’s Gentleman Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 6, 2021

I am more convinced every day that true power is in gentleness. Like the silent gentle rays of the sun are the most potent factors in natural life, so the gentle kindness of the Christian is the most potent factor in spreading the spiritual life.

History is the record of the battle of competing ideas and philosophies that clash with one another in their effort to gain the allegiance of men. The whole world is under the pressure of such competing ideologies. Is theism or atheism the truth? Is liberalism or conservatism the way to go in ...read more

God Is A God Of Goodness

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 30, 2022

Any time people are special in our lives, we want to tell others about them.

This is why we Christians tell others about the GOD OF THE BIBLE AND HIS LOVE AND GOODNESS. The reason some do not talk more about the God of the Bible than they do is because they really do not know Him well enough to talk about Him!

Contributed by Charles Cunningham on Jan 20, 2020

In times like these, when pressures are brought to bear on the committed by the uncommitted, mature Christians must dare to be like Daniel whose courage of conviction became his personal testimony for the Lord.

MAKING AN IMPACT FOR GOD: THE COURAGE OF CONVICTION As my elder brother passed through death into life everlasting life, a hospital chaplain spoke of the process as a “tug of war” between Creator God and Medical Science. My brother, like many of us, had made the ...read more

God’s Resolutions

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Jan 2, 2019

This sermon looks at seven promises, resolutions of God that God's people can take hold of as their own with full assurance that God will keep every one of them.

God’s Resolutions Before we look at the resolutions that God has made concerning all of us, I began by thinking about our New Year’s resolutions, and then I thought about what it meant and where it all came from. It seems that the word, “resolution” had its origin back in the late 14th century. ...read more

God’s Deliverance

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 24, 2022

Often when we face the difficulties of life, we try to make sense out of what we are facing. But what frustrates us at times like this is that IT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE!

For example, when the terrorists struck the Trade Towers in New York City, and the Pentagon, on Sept. 11, 2001, the pundits put their heads together and tried to make sense of why anyone would want to kill thousands of innocent people. They could only reach the conclusion that Osama Bin Laden and ...read more

A Prayer For God’s Will

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 6, 2022

When it comes to praying for God’s will, we often find ourselves at a loss for words. Perhaps, the way to make the greatest impact is to ask for a blessing; to pray for the spiritual and material resources we need to enlarge the kingdom.

I’ve entitled our message this morning “A Prayer for God’s Will.” When we think of God’s will we often have in mind how the Lord wants to use us for His glory; how God wants to include us in His plans and work through us to make an impact for the kingdom. But when it comes to praying for God’s ...read more
