    Contributed by Perry Greene on Mar 3, 2023
     | 1,364 views

    Preaching about hell is no longer in vogue but it is an incredible warning to our God-defying world.

    When the great English preacher, Charles Spurgeon, taught homiletics to his student preachers, he coached them on preaching about heaven and hell. He said that they should look joyful when they preached of heaven, but their regular face would do when they spoke of hell. Years ago, preachers ...read more

    "Can You Hear Me Now?” (Sermon 2 Of 3 On Prayer)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jun 8, 2023
     | 1,434 views

    Pastors do a lot of preaching on prayer because they know how important it is to us Christians.

    But many preachers are guilty of telling Christians they should pray, but they do not tell them from the scriptures HOW TO PRAY EFFECTIVELY. The fact is, if we cannot pray effective prayers why bother to pray at all. If you ask the average Christian do they know how to pray they would tell you ...read more

    Today I will be preaching on the parable of THE CONTRAST BETWEEN THE RICH AND THE POOR found in the book of Luke.

    The gospel of Luke is the only book that carries this passage of scripture that some think is a parable. However, as I preach this from this PASSAGE OF SCRIPTURE, I need to mention that there are some preachers who refuse to preach this passage of scripture as a parable. Some say it is not a ...read more

    Message teaches the practical application of the metaphor of armor in Eph. 6:10-17. Christians are in a spiritual battle simply because they are Christians. In an increasingly antichristian culture this teaching becomes even more essential.

    The title of this message is: Stand Your Ground! There are times and season when the devil’s assaults against believers are more intense than at other times. Scripture not only tells us to be prepared for such times, but also tells us how to be prepared. That’s our subject today. I am an optimist. ...read more

    Our Gospel reading for this morning is one that tends to catch a lot of people off guard. When you think of Jesus, you don’t usually think of Him as someone who gets angry, who resorts to violent behavior. We think of him as a tender, compassionate, easy going person who wouldn’t hurt a fly. ...read more
