Good Days And Bad Days

Contributed by Ricky Johnson on Feb 19, 2012

Some days everything is right and others everything is wrong; to get through them place our faith in the Christ. When we put our faith in Jesus christ, we are to be bold in proclaiming that faith.

Every day in our lives is not necessarily a good day. Once in awhile we experience bad days; maybe even some horrible days. Days which will make us question the possibility of another tomorrow or may even challenge our relationship with GOD. Hopefully, no one here is in the habit of placing ...read more

From The Devil's Depths To Divine Deliverance Series

Contributed by Greg Nance on Jan 20, 2007

Job’s misery was a rough path to a grand finale. Job was God’s man for the mission of putting Satan in his place. Wealth, health, family and friends are no foundation on which to stand, only faith.

Today, as promised, we will complete the book of Job. Last week we left him in the midst of his misery with three friends who came to "comfort" him. Remember, when we met Job, he was wealthy and seemed healthy, he walked with God blamelessly, and he deeply cared about his 10 children and ...read more

Mother's Day 2005

Contributed by Tony Grant on Oct 24, 2005

My mother has Alzheimer’s, and is very hotile toward me for putting her in assisted living, so any Mother’s Day sermon I preach has got to be about forgiveness.

Diversity

Contributed by Lou Nicholes on Mar 28, 2005

In the body there is a diversity of gifts. There is a tendency among Christians for some people to magnify the "sensational" gifts. Some believers feel very guilty because they possess gifts that do not put them in the limelight. It is this attitude that

Backslider On A Bumpy Boat

Where Is Your Faith?

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Aug 7, 2005

The encounter in the storm tells us we need to (1) put our trust in God; (2) do not let fear paralyze us, and (3) faith comes from knowing the Word of God.

Jesus asked, “Where is your faith?” I believe this is the same question the Lord would like to ask us today. Where is your faith? Where or what do you put your trust in? In yourself – your own wisdom and strength? Your career? Your family? No human being can live without faith in someone or ...read more
