All The Lonely People

Contributed by Jarrett Stephens on Jan 5, 2022

Loneliness and isolation are things we've all felt and worked through.

Today, let’s talk about loneliness. We’ve all felt it…we’ve all experienced it at one time or another. It’s something that regardless of age, demographic, background – this feeling of being isolated and alone that can result in sadness and despondency…it effects all of us. It is a certainty in ...read more

Four Marvelous Things We Have In The Lord

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 14, 2022

One thing that we all have in common is that we all want the best this life has to offer.

What we do not have in common is the way we go about pursuing the best this life has to offer. For example, many believe their hope of enjoying the best life has to offer them can be found in: - Sports. Their lives are consumed by the pursuit of sports. - Wealth. Their lives are consumed by ...read more

Wait Upon The Lord

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 20, 2022

Life is full of highs and lows, from the mountain top to the valley; and God’s people were in a low spot. If Judah would learn to "wait on the Lord," then God would enable them to fly, run and walk across the finish line to victory!

Wait Upon the Lord Isaiah 40:27-31 I’ve entitled our message this morning, “Wait Upon the Lord,” but I could have easily justified calling it “Fly, Run and Walk,” and you’ll see why as we continue along. But since much of the message is focused on flying, I want to open with an illustration that ...read more

The Realities Of The Christian Life

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 25, 2022

The psalmist expressed what many of us have expressed or thought.

He said, “...Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest.” The Psalmist was not the first, and he certainly was not the last person who wished he had wings as a dove so he could fly away. Illus: We all have felt like the man who went to the bus station and told ...read more

A Warning Given

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Jan 30, 2022

God has set warnings that come out of His word. These warnings are so we can get our lives right with God. If I could give a summary statement about Sunday’s message it would be, “A Warning Given,” “A Warning Taken,” and “A Deliverance Achieved.”

A Warning Given Ezekiel 33:3-5 Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-egtJBTubwE When it comes to warnings, here in America we have a whole bunch of systems designed to warn of impending danger. We have what is known as the public alert and warning systems. There is our Defcon Level Warning ...read more

Worshipping Face Down

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 6, 2022

This is a topical message related to worship. I want to examine the worship-related action of falling face down before the Lord in response to His glorious presence. This message ties into Matt Redman's book entitled "Face Down."

This evening I am going to be sharing a topical message related to worship. I want us to examine the worship-related action of falling face down before the Lord; so, I have entitled our sermon/Bible study, “Worshipping Face Down.” The title of our message is also found in a book on worship called ...read more

The Christian And His Money

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 7, 2022

Many times you think you know people until you deal with them concerning money.

Ask any landlord. He can tell you how many people have deceived him over and over again with their nice talk and appearance. The prospective renters may have looked like the most honest people ever, yet once they moved in they turned out to be some of the biggest "dead beats" in ...read more

Protecting God's Good Name Series

Contributed by David Owens on Feb 14, 2022

This sermon brings this sermon series to an end. Since it should be our goal to make our lives all about God, then we should do our best to protect God's good name by our life of integrity and character. We are God's ambassadors and let's be the best ambassadors we can be.

A. Today’s sermon brings to a conclusion our sermon series “It’s All About God – Living A God-Centered Life.” 1. It has been a real joy and a real blessing for me to develop this sermon series using Max Lucado’s book “It’s Not About You” as a resource. 2. We have spent three months of Sundays ...read more

A New Heart For A Fresh Start

Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on Feb 22, 2022

Jesus’ teaching and ministry was a way of reframing the use of Scripture. The Scribes had made notes that were superimposed on Scripture. Jesus holds before us a new way of living life. One based on mercy, grace, and love. Jesus modeled the heart and intent of God.

As a child we would attempt to salvage anything and everything. The house I remember from early childhood was an interesting building. When my mother wanted to clean the floor, she would pour water on the floor, scrub it with a broom, and the water would drain through the floor. The first home ...read more

Do You Show Partiality?

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 26, 2022

This message looks at four different types of partiality that take place in churches: Class, Geographic, Racial, and Denominational discrimination. Prejudice in the church displeases the Lord, it is unjust and a complete travesty!

Last Sunday was recognized on the SBC calendar as Racial Reconciliation Sunday, and so I want to share something applicable today. I’ve entitled our message, “Do You Show Partiality?” and this is actually a question for each of us here today. According to Noah Webster, in the 1828 American ...read more
