    Since Christ made unity possible, let us pursue unity.

    God Himself declared that unity is not only possible but most of all powerful. Looking down at the Tower of Babel, He said: “If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them.”[1] Of course, God scattered those who ...read more

    The Call That Frees Us….and Others Too!

    When we follow Jesus, we believe that God has something better for us and all of humanity. That is the message of the readings from Jeremiah, Hebrews and Luke. We are to spread that message in our world by witnessing to God's love for us.

    There is a story that Dr. Ian Paisley, the fiery Irish minister and politician, was preaching one Sunday on the end times, and in particular on the Day of Judgment. As he reached the climax of his address, he said that on the Day of Judgment, "there would be wailing and gnashing of teeth". At that ...read more

     | 2,053 views

    Elisha continued his journey with Elijah passing through two more towns - Jericho and Jordan, both with special teaching we can personally apply. After that, Elijah was caught up and Elisha became God’s powerful prophet.

    THE CALL OF ELISHA - “FULLY SURRENDERED” PART 2 OF 2 SERIES – MESSAGES ON ELISHA – HIS LIFE AND MINISTRY Number 2 We continue the account of the call of Elisha as he succeeded Elijah.

    Psalm 34:12-14 - Part 5 – The Tongue A Strained Bow - And Depart; Do; Seek; Pursue Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Mar 2, 2025
     | 245 views

    Today we stress the power of the tongue to do evil but it must be controlled. Also, depart from evil and do good. The tongue is troublesome and we spent time looking at the problem. With everything we must be conformed to the image of Christ. Even Christians fear to commit themselves.

    PSALM 34:12-14 - PART 5 – THE TONGUE A STRAINED BOW - AND DEPART; DO; SEEK; PURSUE In our last message in this glorious Psalm we were at the start of the second half of the Psalm. This alphabetic Psalm has 22 verses/stanzas to match the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet, but it has two divisions ...read more

    Everyone has the need to be loved. A life-changing moment happens when we hear the All-powerful Creator, Maker of the vast universe, express His loves to us personally, calling us by our name.

    HE KNOWS MY NAME! Lk. 19:1-10 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: THE IRS SHUFFLE (2 days ago – tax day) 1. Tax his cow, Tax his goat; Tax his pants, Tax his coat; Tax his crop, Tax his work; Tax his ties, Tax his shirt; 2. Tax his chew, Tax his smoke; Teach him taxing is no joke.Tax his ...read more

    When the times get hard (and they do get hard), I know it’s just temporary. It’s like when the rain comes, it can rain a lot or it can rain for days, but sooner or later the rain will stop and the sun will shine again.

    I Keep Him So He Can Keep Me" He is ever present with me; at all times He goes before me. I will not live in fear or abandon my calling because He stands at my right hand. The Voice Bible Psalms 16:8 How many of you know that life is full of ups and downs, one day theres, joy and ...read more

    We need to stop and remind ourselves of who we are: Believers in Jesus who are serving him in a marathon, not a sprint, toward his kingdom. Therefore, let us never forget, or even minimize, who were are or what our “upward call” is.

    Paul the apostle must have been a sports fan. I say that because he uses a lot of terminology in the scriptures related to sports. He says – We don't wrestle with just flesh and blood. That's a wrestling illustration. He says – We fight the good fight. That's a boxing illustration. But ...read more

    When God Calls Your Name: Saul / Paul Series

    based on 3 ratings
     | 8,253 views

    How would you respond if God called your name not once, but twice? In the Bible, God calls plenty of people often by name, but I’ve only found seven times where God calls out someone’s name twice in a row. In each instance, what follows is a life-changing encounter with the God of creation.

    When God Calls Your Name… Twice: Saul/Paul Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 9/4/2016 After church one Sunday, a pastor stood at the front of the church greeting people as they left. A sweet, little, elderly woman stopped and said: “Pastor, please speak louder. I can’t hear ...read more

    Another visit into the life of David to encourage people to examine their own lives for areas where they are pursuing false “freedom” and to pursue real freedom within God’s design for living.

    Today is the 2nd installment in this series from the life of David. If you’re following the Scriptures, you’re going to notice we’re skipping more than we’re looking at. And, you’re going to notice that once again, David is like us – in his life there are ...read more

    It was just a day at the beach but it was also the beginning of Christianity, when Jesus went from being simply a teacher to the leader and founder of a movement.

    A Day at the Beach: the Beginning This time of year it’s easy for our minds to drift to warmer climes and the beach. If you close your eyes you can almost envision the turquoise water, the white sand and a palm tree that you can lean back on. I love being close to the water. Maybe ...read more

    A Church’s Mission: The Purpose Of Church At The Mission

    Contributed by Rev. Matthew Parker on May 15, 2011
     | 10,198 views

    Jesus was sent by the Father and Jesus then sent His disciples. How does Jesus’ calling connect with the church’s calling? How does God use the unique character of a local church to impact its community for the gospel?

    Let’s consider the purpose of Church at the Mission today? Why are we here? What is the mission of Church at the Mission? Our mission, why we are here and what we should be doing, is not something that we come up with ourselves. Who is the head of this church. It’s not me. It’s not Rick Tobias. ...read more

    The princess of Egypt knew that God’s law superseded the state’s law; and chose to act for compassion and justice.

    As I began this series of three messages on the theme, Designing Women, last week, I said that we were going to be looking for qualities of leadership out of the stories of those women mentioned in the roll call of faith known as the 11th chapter of Hebrews. You’ll remember that I pointed out ...read more
