    based on 2 ratings
     | 8,726 views

    Last week's sermon was on acceptance. So with a follow-up sermon on tolerance you might be wondering if it's going to be redundant. Though it's common to use the words interchangeably, they are different for a reason.

    Contributed by Dennis Lee on Aug 9, 2020

     | 6,067 views

    Today's message looks at how we are to by faith expect God's best for our lives through the story of David and Goliath, and how we can by faith expect God's best through tuning into God, thinking on God's promises, and trusting in God's love.

    Practical Faith “Expecting God’s Best” The Bible says, “Each person is destined to die once and after that comes judgment.” (Hebrews 9:27 NLT) So the question becomes, “How can we stand before a holy and righteous God after our death?” Is it by being better than we are bad? Is it by keeping the ...read more

    Your attitude represents your very character. The Word of God says in Prov. 23:7; "For as a man (or woman) thinks in his or her heart, so he/she is..."

    The other day, I was in the grocery store, and I noticed a lot of gloomy faces. I began thinking about my mother, who a year ago lost my father, her husband of over 60 years, and she seemingly has been in a funk ever since. I have tried cheering her up, but her mood stays the same. Now, I know ...read more

     | 18,660 views

    The apostle Paul compares a husbands love for his wife to Christ's love for the church. How should men love their wives? He must have a sacrifical love, sanctifying love, and sensitive love for his bride.

    Valentine’s Day 2016 Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 2/14/16 Happy Valentine’s Day! Or, for those of you who don’t have a date, happy Singles Awareness Day.

     | 3,709 views

    God is calling us to accept people and situations we don't like because God is doing something in our lives that is far bigger than any of us. Mary and Joseph had to accept each other to keep the Christmas story going.

    Christmas It’s About Accepting Things We Don’t Like 12/20/ 2020 Matthew 1:18-25 Colossians 3:12-17 2020 has been quite a year for us.

    This devotion is about the prayer of repentance by Jonah from the belly of the great fish. This is the 20th of 31 devotions on the book of Jonah, where a comparison is made between Jonah and The Church-at-large, in the light of the present global pandemic.

    Jonah 2:1-9 - Then Jonah prayed to the LORD his God from the fish’s belly. 2 And he said: “I cried out to the LORD because of my affliction, and He answered me. “Out of the belly of Sheol I cried, and You heard my voice. 3 For You cast me into the deep, into the heart of the seas, and the floods ...read more

    Are you ready to leave 2020 behind for good? As much as we'd like to cut COVID off and put it behind us, we won't be able to quite yet. But there are other things that we can break free from. But if we're going to do it the right way we'll need to burn the ships.

    BURN THE SHIPS As we get ready to go into 2021, I'm sure everyone is ready to leave 2020 behind for good. Unfortunately, 2021 doesn't look like it's going to be much of a fresh start; we're still dealing with COVID in a major way. So it looks like we won't be able to get rid of ...read more

    Good riddance to a tough year, and here's to the promise of a new year, where Jesus can and does make all things new.

    In seeing the title of the sermon you may be thinking, "he can't be serious. Content during COVID? How?" Paul said that he learned the secret to contentment. With the way things are going it would do us well to learn that secret.
