    This is the fifth message in the series. This sermon deals with the two directions or path for those who have died. The path of the unbeliever and the believer. For the believer it is a trip to heaven. For the unbeliever, it is a trip towards judgment

    ANSWERING THE TOUGH QUESTIONS OF SCRIPTURE What Happens After We Die?

    What does the Bible say causes divorce? Why is it such an epidemic in our land? Here’s hope for the hard hearted and the heavy hearted!

    Dealing with Divorce: Hope for the Hard Hearted and the Heavy Hearted No one knows the pain of divorce more than one who has been divorced. Divorce is not a topic that I can talk about from personal experience; in twenty-seven years of marriage Ronda and I have never even entertained the idea. ...read more

    God's Call In Stars And Dreams

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Jan 8, 2002

     | 3,975 views

    In the dim light of a Star and the witness of dreams wise men were guided by God to find and worship Jesus, how much more ought we who have the plain Word of God to do so!

    When God Speaks Through Dreams Matthew 2:13-23 What do you think about dreams? The Greek words for dream occur only 9 times in the New Testament; six times in Matthew, where every one of them has a message from God. Acts 2:17 and Jude 8 contain the other three. Acts speaks of the evidence of ...read more

    Just Like Jesus Pt 2 Series

    Contributed by Richard White on Jul 9, 2003
    based on 14 ratings
     | 4,576 views

    Max Lucado wrote a very good book by this title which gave me the idea for this series. God loves us the way we are, yet he loves us too much to leave us that way. The heart of Jesus is a listening heart and is lead by the hand of God

    Just like Jesus part 2: Ears to hear Jesus tells a story about a seed scatterer and soil. MT 13:1 That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the lake. 2 Such large crowds gathered around him that he got into a boat and sat in it, while all the people stood on the shore. 3 Then he told ...read more

    Music In Worship

    based on 112 ratings
     | 16,134 views

    This is an examination of the kind of music that God deems acceptable in the worship of the Lord’s Church.

    From the earliest days, music has played an important element in the worship of God. In both the Old and New Testaments, one can read of the use of music in worship. During the last 1600-1700 years, there has been much controversy as to the nature of acceptable music in Christian worship. The ...read more

    Who is in control of your life? Is it you to Jesus...can you pay the cost for your salvation?

    Cost – what are you carrying? Mark 8:31-38 In the beginning of this chapter we see 4000 people fed with 7 loaves of bread and a few fish. Jesus told his disciples to feed the people and when they said, “yes, but how?” He provides a miracle. Now it should not have been a shock to the disciples, ...read more

    Parenting is a calling that needs our commitment and requires compassion

    There was a pastor who gave a talk about parenting even before he had a child. His title was, “How to Raise Your Children.” Then he had his first child. It took him some time before he gave that talk again. When he gave it, he changed the title into “Suggestions for Struggling Parents.” Then he had ...read more

    Worship Wars

    Sermon to handle the increasing division over style of music in worship (contemporary vs. traditional). We sing for God’s benefit and not our own. Yet God continues to inspire us with a new song and styles of worship.

    In the last month or so I have heard some interesting comments. I’ve heard, “we don’t sing enough of the old hymns,” or “I don’t like the new music,” and I have also heard “we are singing too many hymns,” or “we sing songs too slow.” Interesting isn’t it? Whenever people are involved there are ...read more
