Contributed by Terry Laughlin on Jul 28, 2020

Women Preachers And The Word Of God

Contributed by Michael Stark on Aug 4, 2012

Do women have a role to play in congregational oversight? What does the Word say?

“Let a woman learn quietly with all submissiveness. I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet. For Adam was formed first, then Eve; and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor. Yet she will be saved ...read more

Senseless Sentinels

Contributed by Ted Sutherland on Mar 14, 2001

Never did soldiers have so hopeless an assignment. To keep Jeus in the tomb! It would be funny if it were not so tragic. "Senseless sentinels!"

A police officer in a small town stopped a motorist who was speeding down Main Street. “But officer,” the man began, “I can explain.” “Just be quiet,” snapped the officer. “I’m going to let you cool your heels in jail until the chief gets back.” “But, officer, I just wanted to say—,” “I ...read more

The Folly Of Mismatched Mates: Hitching The Holy And The Profane Series

Contributed by Thomas Black on Feb 2, 2005

It is firmly against God’s will for a believer to marry an unbeliever. But what are the applications for those of us who are already married?

How many of you; if you discovered your children had begun hanging around with the drinkers, druggers and doers at school would be content to let them continue associating with them? Not a one of us would ratify that arrangement – or at least none of us should. In fact I think it’s safe to say ...read more

This Special Day! Series

Contributed by Terry Blankenship on Mar 14, 2012

Which day is THE Special Day? Saturday or Sunday? The Old Testament Shabbat or the New Testament Lord's Day? What do you think?

Exodus 20:8-11 This Special Day! As I prepared this series, I realized how little we actually preach or teach on the Ten Commandments as if they are neither important nor relevant. They are both. It was very enlightening to me to preach through them. I learned a lot! I trust this series will ...read more

Solomon Builds The Temple Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Jul 4, 2010

Solomon finally gets to build the Temple that David had planned - a place where God will be with his people but it's still just a building.

By Rev Bill Stewart You could be forgiven for thinking that a report of the Building Committee has been subtituted for today’s reading by mistake.

Marriage & Family

Contributed by Gary Moore on Jan 25, 2008

The Land And Death Series

Contributed by Gary Moore on Feb 6, 2008

This message deals in part with Paul’s view of law and grace.

Is this an autobiographical account of Paul’s futile struggle to do what is right? If so, is Paul ...read more
