    Sibling Rivalry Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 23, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 13,510 views

    Sibling rivalry starts with one person feeling they've been slighted. They deserved to be treated better. And expect this kind of rivalry in children - it's when we become adults that this desire to "be the star" can destroy families, churches and relationships.

    To Whom Are You Yielding?

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Jan 21, 2020
     | 6,725 views

    Most of us understand that when a person yields, he’s allowing the other person “to go.” This message is a somewhat detailed look at Romans 6 and what it means to yield according to scripture.

    According to the Bible, Satan cannot force a person to do anything and God will not force a person to do anything. The title of the message is “To Whom Are You Yielding?” I am going to paint a image of “yielding” that we know and understand, but it is not the yielding that’s described in the ...read more

    Multi Ethnic Bereavement

    Contributed by Davon Huss on Apr 30, 2017
     | 13,940 views

    I wrote this for a counseling class. It contains three parts: 1) Bereavement in religion 2) Bereavement in ethnic groups 3) Applications for pastoral and clinical counselors.

    To be used of the Lord to help those grieving is both satisfying and humbling. My personal prayer is that more mourners will be drawn to the gospel of Jesus Christ.

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 4, 2021
    based on 6 ratings
     | 17,356 views

    Christianity is about making a choice. Do I choose to do things God's way, or mine? Do I choose to follow His wishes, or the wishes of others who disagree with Him? The Bible repeatedly tells us: "Make a choice."

    There is the story of the “good old boy” who came down out of the mountains one day. He was all dressed up and carrying his Bible. A friend saw him and asked, “Elias, what’s going on?
