    Faith Like A Child

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 29, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,452 views

    We need to consider how our waning faith can become a hindrance to others. Jesus provides a warning about hindering other believers who have the faith of a child. It is also a warning about hindering children from coming to Christ.

    Back when I was in college, one of my favorite songs was “Faith Like a Child” by Jars of Clay. Listen as I share some of the lyrics to this song: “Dear God, surround me as I speak; the bridges that I walk across are weak. Frustrations fill the void that I can’t solely bear . . . Sometimes, when I ...read more

    Give Us A King

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 29, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,001 views

    This passage shares the account of a church that is looking at what the church down the road is doing. The pastor (Samuel) tries to lead this church (Israel) according to God’s will, but the congregation won’t heed his counsel.

    As we look at this chapter of 1 Samuel today, there unfolds a scene that can be applied to discussing the goal of churches today. What is the vision of some churches? Do churches think in a Christ-centered manner, or do they think in a worldly manner? What I mean is this: Are churches today ...read more

    God Pursues The Lost

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 29, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,199 views

    This message looks at how people run from God when He is only trying to rescue them. What are some of the ways in which the Lord pursues the lost? And what happens when He actually catches the person who’s running?

    This morning we are going to look at some words of revelation from the Lord spoken by the prophet Elihu to Job. In Elihu’s words of wisdom, we find a message that can be applied to those who are lost without salvation in Jesus Christ; and I wish to begin this sermon with an illustration: One ...read more

    Light In Earthen Vessels

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 29, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,450 views

    God saw a lowly farmer like Gideon as a mighty warrior. When God looks at each of us, He sees a mighty warrior too. However, that warrior doesn’t appear unless we put our trust in the Lord and rely entirely on Him in faith.

    Our text today will come from the New International Version. In our message we’re going to view a story about an ordinary man who had an intense struggle with trusting God, and this man’s name was Gideon. We will learn how when Gideon finally trusted the Lord, that he understood what it meant to ...read more

    The Smiths

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 29, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,304 views

    Demetrius “Smith” represents someone whose judgement is clouded by selfish desires. Alexander "Smith" represents someone who doesn't want to be alone in his sin; who makes it a point to cause other Christians to stumble.

    I’ve entitled our message for this evening, “The Smiths.” Have you heard about the Smiths? Take for instance Zipporah Smith. “Who’s that?” you may say. Well, her husband, Moses, was used by God to deliver the Israelites from their bondage in Egypt. You see, Zipporah was a Kenite, and the word ...read more

    The Ultimate Scapegoat

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 29, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,484 views

    What was the Scapegoat, and can it's function somehow be applied to Jesus? Christ made a one-time sacrifice and atonement to cover all sins. There is no more need for a scapegoat, as the Lamb of God became the final sin offering.

    I want to begin our sermon this morning by asking if you’ve ever before heard the word “scapegoat.” This term was coined by William Tyndale, the first great English Bible translator, who I will discuss a little further later on in our message. After Tyndale, the word came to be used for a person, ...read more

    Understanding Servant Leadership

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 29, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,358 views

    Some people have never heard of servant leadership. This message discusses the wrong attitude for leadership. It then looks at three points defining servant leadership, and it concludes with the six primary characteristics.

    Dwight L. Moody once said, “The measure of a man is not how many servants he has, but how many men he serves.”(1) This evening’s message will discuss something called servant leadership; and servant leadership is when a leader humbles him or herself to the level as those who are served. Walter C. ...read more

    Witnessing To Postmodern People

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 29, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,325 views

    This message discusses postmodernism. In today's moral relativism, truth is seen as subjective, and it can supposedly change with circumstances. So, how do we share about Jesus who is "the way, the TRUTH, and the life?"

    Our message this evening is entitled, “Witnessing to Postmodern People.” As we seek to understand how to better share our faith in today’s western culture, we must begin with a discussion on modernism and postmodernism. Modernism and postmodernism are eras, or time periods of societal thought and ...read more

    Construction Site Or Warzone?

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 25, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,007 views

    God is calling the church to rebuild after the Corona Virus pandemic lock-downs. Any church that rebuilds becomes a construction site, which is a warzone for spiritual battle. This message can be re-worked for a building program.

    Last week I mentioned how I believe that God is calling us to rebuild our fellowship after a series of setbacks. This means that our church is currently sitting smack dab in the middle of a spiritual construction site. I remember how I once pastored a church where we built a multipurpose ...read more

    The Blessing Of Work Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 30, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,903 views

    Labor Day: Work was ordained by God in the beginning and was intended to give us a level of satisfaction and purpose. This topical message looks at some prominent Bible passages on work to see how work is a blessing.

    I wish to begin with an illustration: “On one occasion, Thomas Edison came home very exhausted from an extended season of work. His wife insisted that he needed some rest, so she suggested a vacation. Edison mulled it over but wasn’t sure where he should go. His wife said, ‘Just decide where you ...read more

    A Jubilant Redemption Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 30, 2021
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,043 views

    Labor Day: The Year of Jubilee was a period of rest and restoration; a time when debts were cancelled and slaves set free. Many today wish they could have a year’s vacation with all their debts cancelled! The greatest Jubilee is in Christ!

    On this Labor Day weekend, as we look at the account of the “Year of Jubilee,” we will observe a period of rest and restoration extended to the children of Israel. The Bible tells us that the Jubilee occurred every forty-nine years (v. 8). It was a time when all the land experienced a sabbath, or ...read more

    God Values Human Life Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Sep 11, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,659 views

    This message addresses the topic of abortion by looking at two key passages that reveal how God cherishes human life even before conception in the womb. It was written for "Sanctity of Life Sunday" back in 2003.

    On National Sanctity of Life Day in 2002, President George W. Bush made “A Proclamation.” Based on our country’s Declaration of Independence, he declared that Sanctity of Life is the belief “that every human being is endowed by our Creator with certain ‘unalienable rights’.”(1) He said that the ...read more

    Standing In The Gap

     | 6,474 views

    This message looks at how God calls believers to step up, one-by-one, and unite in order to form a wall against the flood of immorality that threatens to wash way our nation.

    I’ve entitled our message this morning, “Standing in the Gap,” and I want to begin with a testimony by a woman from North Dakota: “The Sheyenne River, which flows past our backyard, went from its normal five feet to a major flood level . . . We felt overwhelmed with the preparations and thought of ...read more

     | 13,008 views

    New Year's: We all get excited about new things and a fresh start, but this message speaks about another kind of new beginning, which is receiving a brand new spiritual life as a child of God!

    As you all know, the New Year is upon us. The entrance of the New Year is an exciting moment for most people, and I think this is because we look forward to and anticipate having new experiences. We look at the New Year as a fresh start on life, and we somehow feel that this coming year is going ...read more

    Faith Is The Victory Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Sep 15, 2021
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,953 views

    New Year's: Some things in life might feel like running a marathon when we’ve never run a mile before. We might feel this way about our New Year’s resolutions, or even our walk with the Lord. Faith can help us push ahead.

    The hymn writer John H. Yates said, “Faith is the victory! Faith is the victory! Oh, glorious victory, that overcomes the world.” In athletics, many things are touted as helping win the victory, from sports drinks to athletic wear. But can that NIKE swoosh really do anything? There is only one ...read more
