    The Value Of Suffering

    Contributed by Carl Allen on Sep 23, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,636 views

    Everyone goes through struggles in life’s journey and everyone has an option on how to view that struggle. We can take it as a time to wreck us or as a time to look to the Word of God and lean on God to pull us through.

    Value of Suffering Psalm 22:1-31 Intro The background of Psalm 22 is some event or series of events in David’s life when he went through much opposition and physical abuse. While suffering on the cross, Jesus quoted part of the first verse. He may have quoted all of it but was so weak the crowd ...read more

    He's Coming To Town Series

    Contributed by Steve Smith on Dec 4, 2006
    based on 7 ratings
     | 12,253 views

    While we sing and talk of one coming on a sleigh, we must remember that Jesus will also be Coming to Town but rather than on a sleigh pulled by reindeer, he will be in the clouds and rather than by reindeer, he will come with power and glory!

    INTRO Isn’t it amazing what Christmas has become? How the sweet calm picture of the birth of one named Jesus has become so much about rush, money, and envy. ILL: Listen to this parody of the Christmas season that I read this past week: "And there were in the same country children keeping watch ...read more

    The Hidden World Of Service

    Contributed by Michael Trask on Sep 25, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,364 views

    The contrast couldn’t be more stark. Jesus describes his ultimate act of service while the disciples argue over which of them will be the greatest! This sermon stealthily plunges the listener into this contrast; then pulls them out on the right side.

    My dear friends in Christ, I want to tell you about something that I didn’t really begin to figure out until I was about 24. Many of you figured it out long before you reached that age; some of you have not figured it out yet. But when someone finally does learn it, and it begins to sink ...read more

    Distracted! Who Are You Listening To?

    Contributed by David Spiegel on Sep 18, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 19,785 views

    We live in a world with thousands of voices of distraction. All trying to push their own agenda. Only one voice truly has our best interest at heart. How do we pull that voice out from the noise?

    Distracted! Are You Listening? We live in a time with more distractions then ever • And we love it that way… keep me entertained/ quietness = boredom in many people’s minds • Let there be a few moments of silence and out comes our little distraction boxes (phones) • Google/Alexa/Siri, Entertain ...read more

    Prevail Completely Over Every Difficulty, Demon, And Even Death

    Contributed by Daniel Habben on Feb 20, 2024
     | 958 views

    Have you ever pulled off a lopsided victory—a volleyball match perhaps or a basketball game in which your team dominated from start to finish, or a race in which you finished minutes ahead of everyone else?

    In last Sunday’s Super Bowl, the Chiefs prevailed over the 49’s. The first three quarters may not have been especially exciting, but the Fourth Quarter and Over Time were something else! Last Sunday’s game was sure a lot more competitive than Super Bowl XXIV. In that 1990 championship game, the ...read more

    Our Anchor Of Hope

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 15, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,909 views

    Because of Jesus, we are able to go behind the veil to experience the grace of the Father. Jesus is our High Priest who goes before us, pulling us ahead like an anchor on a motor launch into the safety of the bay of heaven.

    Today’s message is entitled “Our Anchor of Hope,” and I would like to open with an illustration. A naval officer from World War II once described how the battleships he was on survived terrible hurricanes in Chesapeake Bay. When storms or turbulent seas threatened a ship that was docked in ...read more

    The Holy Spirit Knows The Best Ways To Work With Each Leadership Style

    Contributed by Paul Fritz on Oct 18, 2000
    based on 29 ratings
     | 3,217 views

    Dwight D. Eisenhower used to demonstrate the art of leadership in a simple but forceful way. He would place a single piece of string on a table and say, "Pull it, and it follows wherever you want it to go. But push it, and it goes nowhere."

    The Holy Spirit Knows the Best Ways to Work With Each Leadership Style "When He the Spirit of truth is come, He will guide you into all truth." (John 16:13) Illustration: Shepherd the flock of God . . . , not for dishonest gain but eagerly; nor as being lords over those entrusted to you. --1 ...read more

    Of Life Before Accepting Christ Series

    Contributed by Bruce Landry on Mar 31, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,442 views

    We are not to dwell in our lives before Christ, but I is good to cognitively think about what our lives apart from Christ were. If we seriously consider it, then we will not so quickly be pulled back into such turmoil and strife.

    “Of Life Before Accepting Christ”Ephesians 2:1-3 A Life of Death… A Life of Sin… A Life of disobedience under God’s wrath… Donald Grey Barnhouse, led the son of a prominent American family to the Lord. He was in the service, but he showed the reality of his conversion by immediately ...read more

    Alive Beyond This Life Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 13, 2008
    based on 8 ratings
     | 3,670 views

    God wants to give us life beyond this life, for God is love and live is never diminished. It is not something we attain by knowledge, but by trust. Two sweatshirts are pulled on and off to illustrate two ways of thinking about life beyond this life.

    God is love. So the Bible says, and that is, in a sense, all we need to know. God is love; and just as when you love someone you do not abandon them, so also the love of God, richer far than tongue or pen can ever tell, reaches to the highest height and to the lowest hell, and keeps on going ...read more

    Faithless Piety

    Contributed by Terry Hovey on Sep 1, 2023
     | 1,350 views

    Jesus did graciously proclaim the truth, but He also very strongly confronted those who twisted and perverted the truth. He pulled no punches when correcting those who intentionally used the word of God toward their own ends.

    Faithless Piety Luke 11:20-44 Have you noticed that there are many people who picture the Lord Jesus’ earthly ministry as one of performing good deeds and miracles, while gently teaching love and peace and being surrounded by women and children? Well, you know, that’s only part of the picture we ...read more

    Three Kinds Of Peace

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 8, 2022
     | 3,205 views

    A Christian man got very involved in collegiate football. He had one team in particular that he pulled for each week. When they won, he had a wonderful week-end, but if they lost he had a terrible week-end.

    His joy and peace within his heart each week was determined by the football team that he supported. He was allowing a couple dozen college boys that he did not know personally decide on what kind of week end he was going to have. The fact is, many folks allow THINGS and PEOPLE to decide what kind ...read more

    The Danger Of Neglect

    Contributed by Melvin Maughmer, Jr. on Feb 26, 2023
    based on 3 ratings
     | 7,213 views

    Salvation means more than we are saved, we shall go to heaven when we die. Salvation provides complete restoration, pulling us out of the muck and mire of sin and bringing us back into a proper relationship with God.

    The Danger of Neglect By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. SCRIPTURE: - Hebrews 2:1-4 “Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip. For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience ...read more

     | 16,241 views

    Resisting temptation is critical if we’re going to find ourselves increasingly faithful to God’s call upon our life. Find out how in this message from Genesis 39 about Joseph’s ability to deal with the pull of evil.

    Trusted: Lessons from the Life of Joseph Week 3: “Trusted with a Prison” Genesis 39:6-23 Just off the shore of North Carolina on the island of Cape Hatteras is a village known as Nag’s Head, a small shoreline town where, back in the 1800’s, the “wreckers” lived.

    This sermon pulls together the "bronze serpent" event in Numbers with John 3:14-21. Jesus is the object that is tangable. Other world religions offered in our pluralistic culture Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism offer ladders to God... Jesus is the lad
