    The Wise, The Unwise, And The Otherwise Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Aug 4, 2021
     | 6,930 views

    In James chapter 3, James contrasts two kinds of wisdom: worldly wisdom and godly wisdom. The fruits that result from these two kinds of wisdom couldn't be any more different from each other.

    A. Let’s start our sermon this morning with a quote: “Life is hard and it’s harder when you’re stupid.” 1. We chuckle at that because we all know it’s true. 2. Some people attribute that quote to John Wayne. 3. I don’t know if the Duke did or didn’t say those words. 4. The line doesn’t appear in ...read more

    Owl #1 Series

    Wisdom is merely seeing life from God’s perspective and responding accordingly. It does not happen by chance. It is given by God to those who pursue, test and prove its value.

    <The owl commercial launches the message> Did you know that that commercial is almost 50 years old? It’s memorable. It points to a question, provides a practical experiment and even an answer. However, the wise old owl is only validating his own personal knowledge and experience so is that ...read more

    The Truth Shines Through: Debunking Lies Of The Culture

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 23, 2021
     | 1,443 views

    Let's talk about the truth. It's out there, I promise you. The bad news is that it tends to be hidden behind a phalanx of lies. The good news is the truth tends to break free.

    Our Father Series

     | 6,962 views

    Fathers today are seen as little more than another child for the wife to take of. We have lowered the expectation of dads to an all time low. But dads, fathers are so very needed.

    INTRODUCTION: How important are a father’s words of wisdom? How valuable is a father's presence in the lives of his children? How necessary is a father's influence as compared to his income or him providing for his family? How many of you remember the old song “Cat’s in the cradle”? ...read more

    The Beginning Of Wisdom Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Oct 2, 2022
     | 3,596 views

    This is the opening sermon for a series based on The Book of Proverbs. I thought it would be a good idea to start a series based on the preeminent book of wisdom literature by discussing and defining what the book means by "wisdom" starting with the first chapter of The Book of Proverbs.

    [Hold up Bible.] I love this book. You’ve heard me refer to it as “The Owner’s Manual.” It contains stories, history, poetry, adventure, drama. It contains hymns. It contains theology, philosophy, and it contains wisdom. Every book in the Bible is there for a reason. Believe it or not, not ...read more

    We are living in an insane world. People hold political power and make stupid laws and mandates. A person who uses reason, logic, and common sense often feels isolated amid all the madness

    "The stupid man cannot know; the fool cannot understand this: that though the wicked sprout like grass and all evildoers flourish, they are doomed to destruction forever; but you, O Lord, are on high forever. For behold, your enemies, O Lord, for behold, your enemies shall perish; all ...read more

    Solomon is not interested only in helping individuals construct a building to eat and sleep in, as important as that is. Instead, the word house is used to represent a happy home, a good family, a sweet life. Let's dare to build.

    Hey everyone! I'm so glad you could join us today as we dive into the wisdom found in the book of Proverbs. I recently came across a quote by Charles Spurgeon that I think really speaks to our topic today: "Train up a child in the way he should go — but be sure you go that way yourself."

    Sermon - The Paradox Of Biblical Faith

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Oct 15, 2024
     | 939 views

    Believers today must likewise persevere in faith and trust God, even when they do not see all the promises of God fulfilled in their lives. The faith that pleases God is a faith that can surrender God's promises back to Him and trust God for their fulfillment according to His will.

    Subject: The Paradox of Biblical Faith Scripture Text: Hebrews 11:13-16 "All these people died still believing what God had promised them. They did not receive what was promised, but they saw it all from a distance and welcomed it. They agreed that they were foreigners and nomads here on ...read more

     | 1,571 views

    While rejection is painful, its purpose is planned. God often uses man's rejection to redirect his people back into His will for their lives.

    Subject: Rejection Is Not Your Final Destination Text: Judges 11:1-11 “Now Jephthah of Gilead was a great warrior. He was the son of Gilead, but his mother was a prostitute.
