    This is the first of four messages titled, "Understanding God"s Word." Today, we will see that in order to understand God’s Word, we must have the right message.

    I have looked forward to this chapter ever since I started preaching in Ezra, two years ago. When we were in Ezra, we looked at what I consider to be my life-verse. Ezra 7:10 says, “For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the law of the LORD, and to do it, and to teach in Israel statutes and ...read more

     | 2,294 views

    Do people live artificial lives because they are artificial, OR they are artificial because they live artificial lives? Olives will never be produced from a fig tree. The world is full of artificial people. What about Christians – are you living an artificial life that does not please God?

    ARTIFICIAL PEOPLE LIVING ARTIFICIAL LIVES - MESSAGE [A]. EXPOSING ARTIFICIALITY I have just seen one of these documentaries set in a very exclusive English Hotel rated with 5 stars.

    The Message This Mother Didn’t Want To Hear Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on May 9, 2020
     | 5,343 views

    She got the message that when she came back home, her son would die. What mother wanted to hear that kind of message? The wife of Jeroboam, first king of the Ten Tribes of Israel, experienced this very thing.

    Introduction: many Mother’s Day messages focus on the positive. Some sermons focus on any number of good mothers, those like Eunice (Timothy’s mother) who is only mentioned once in Scripture by name, but the deeds of her son speak volumes. Other good mothers come to mind, like Hannah, Leah, ...read more

    When we think of the Christmas story, we often think of Christ, of Mary and Joseph, of the shepherds and the wise men. But this message is dedicated to the most overlooked character(s) of the Nativity (Angels) and to their message!

     | 14,023 views

    We’re stopping at the house of Caiaphas, & what we see there is rank hypocrisy. So let’s to look at it. But after we do, we’ll also look at the genuineness of Jesus, & point out the contrast between the two.

    MELVIN NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK When people are invited to attend church, an excuse we sometimes hear is this: “I don’t go to church because there are so many hypocrites there.” Have you ever heard that excuse? It’s been around a long time. Those who love the church have ...read more

    Hope Dies Series

    Contributed by Billy Ricks on Apr 10, 2016
     | 5,072 views

    Hopelessness comes from misunderstanding the cross. There is no beauty in the cross to the carnal man. Once conviction of sin and confession of Jesus as Lord happens there is hope.

    Intro: Our world seems hopeless in many ways. Economically, politically, racially, stock market woes, natural disasters. From a purely worldly standpoint there seems to be no reason to hope. The disciples of Jesus felt much the same way. Even though Jesus had told them again and again what ...read more
