Quench Your Thirst With Living Water!

Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Mar 6, 2023

Water and thirst. Those are two powerful pictures that we find in Jesus’ interaction with a Samaritan woman at a well. May God the Holy Spirit enable us to recognize the insatiable thirst that sin gives us. And every day, let’s quench our thirst with living water.

This reading from John 4 uses something from everyday life that is intended to give us a powerful connection to spiritual truth. It’s supposed to touch our head and our heart and impact our emotions. But I fear that it is lost on us. What am I talking about? It’s just plain water. Well, I ...read more

"...as My Father Hath Sent Me...so Send I You”

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 29, 2022

Through the centuries, men of God have been digging sermons out of this Bible the same way a gold miner digs gold out of the earth.

And, just as there is plenty more gold yet to be dug out of the earth, so there are plenty more sermons that have not yet been discovered in the pages of this sacred Book. The Lord is so great that ministers have not come close to exhausting the materials in this Bible that describe His ...read more

Promoting What We Have

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 13, 2021

If we fail to recognize what God is doing in our midst, then His blessings may depart from us. Instead of looking at what we "don't" have, we need to look at what we "do" have, and then tell others what God is doing in our church.

I’ve entitled our message today: “Promoting What We Have.” And we’re going to take a look at four points to boldly sharing with others what God is doing in our life and in our church. I once heard it said that you should appreciate what you have, before it becomes what you had.(1) This is an ...read more
