  • "nimrod's Folly"

    Contributed by John Huyser on Sep 5, 2023
     | 1,589 views

    From Sunday School I remember vividly all sorts of lessons on The Tower of Babel. I think almost all of them missed the mark. The issue is far less the Tower of Babel - in fact the tower is a symptom of humanity wanting to do their own thing without God. Jesus came down to reverse that.

    It was a moment of folly, a church in Northwest Iowa prefers to forget. Busting at the seams, they broke ground on a new building in the early eighties. Their sanctuary and parking lot would double in size. Featured too were a large kitchen and fellowship hall and many a classroom and extra ...read more

  • True Greatness - Mark 9:33-36 Series

    Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Dec 29, 2023
     | 1,173 views

    We read of the disciples arguing who was the greatest, and we see it as immature and crass. But all of us have far more of that in us than we realize. This sermon will help you discover areas of self-exaltation and show the path toward true greatness.

    Mark 9:30 They left that place and passed through Galilee. Jesus did not want anyone to know where they were, 31 because he was teaching his disciples. He said to them, "The Son of Man is going to be delivered into the hands of men. They will kill him, and after three days he will rise." ...read more

  • It’s Not For You

    Contributed by Samuel M on Jan 16, 2024
     | 370 views

    Even though you are extremely blessed and experienced in your field of work, that does not mean you can perform God's work without His calling.

    And they withstood King Uzziah, and said to him, “It is not for you, Uzziah, to burn incense to the LORD, but for the priests, the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense. Get out of the sanctuary, for you have trespassed! You shall have no honor from the LORD God.” 2 Chronicles ...read more

  • Servant Leadership (The World’s On Fire) - Mark 10:41-45 Series

    Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Jan 28, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 683 views

    In 2020, our President was impeached, economy shut down, 40 million people lost their jobs, widespread corruption at the highest levels of our government are being exposed, and there are riots, beatings, and murders across the country. Jesus shows us that all these rise out of the same root cause.

    Mark 10:41 When the ten heard about this, they became indignant with James and John. 42 Jesus called them together and said, “You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. 43 Not so with you. Instead, whoever ...read more

    Introduction: Discipleship Joke: A preacher was preaching in an unfamiliar church one Sunday morning.

So he leaned closer to the microphone ...read more

  • The Miserable Son And The Maddened Sibling

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Oct 24, 2022
     | 890 views

    Was the miserable son wasteful? Why did the father not punish the young son, if he deserved it? Was the maddened son self-centered and resentful?

    Verses 11 – 19: Was the miserable son wasteful? The young son’s portion of the property was 33% (Deuteronomy 21:17). By and large, he would have gotten this at his father’s death, although fathers in some cases decided to split their property early and resign from dealing with the estates. What is ...read more

  • Heman

    Contributed by Samuel M on Feb 15, 2024
     | 350 views

    Heman, in spite of living a holy life, wept for the sins that came along with His birth, i.e. the sins that came as part of the fall of mankind.

    Psalm 51 and Psalm 88 were written by two saints of God when they were going through extreme agony. David wrote Psalm 51 after he sinned against Bathsheba. Psalm 88 was written by Heman, one of the sons of Asaph. Heman was a wise man and seer in David's kingdom. Heman had a very good ...read more

     | 5,040 views

    Diotrephes was a trouble maker trying to run the church. Paul tells Gaius he will deal with him when he comes. Peace is possible in spite of those who love to be first.

    THE DISEASE OF DIOTREPHES SCRIPTURE: KJV III John 1:9 “I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the preeminence among them, receiveth us not. (v. 10) Wherefore, if I come, I will remember his deeds which he doeth, prating against us with malicious words: and not content ...read more

  • The General And The Servant Girl

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Mar 23, 2024
     | 588 views

    We’re told that “Cleanliness is next to Godliness;” a bit of an overstatement, but it got generations of kids to wash their hands before dinner.

    We’re told that “Cleanliness is next to Godliness;” a bit of an overstatement, but it got generations of kids to wash their hands before dinner. By the way, this saying is from John Wesley, not the Bible. “Wash me and I will be whiter than snow,” king David prayed (Ps 51:7). Spiritual ...read more

     | 9,577 views

    Sometimes the challenge human beings face is overcoming their own pride.

    Read Text: Luke 18:9-14 It has been one of the watch words of the past 10+ years. All sorts of societal ills have been blamed on the tendency of people to consider themselves more soberly than they ought. We’ve heard the catch-phrases, low self-esteem, a poor self-image.
