God reminds them of that in verse 2, we read, “I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.” Isn’t it amazing, if I do you a big ...read more

The Idols That Make Us Idle

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Nov 20, 2025

It is not unusual to hear a teenager or adults these days say, I AM BORED!!! The word “Bored” originates from the verb “bore”, which means to pierce or drill. The term has evolved over time to describe a feeling of emptiness or lack of interest, often associated with a dull life.

God did not put us here to live a life of boredom!!! The Word of God tells us Eccl.9:10, Whatsoever Thy Hands Findeth to do, do it with all thy might. Reading that verse of scripture does not describe a life of boredom. Illus: Isaac Watts said: Satan finds some mischief still for idle hands to ...read more

To that end, he pointed back to the stubborn unfaithfulness ...read more

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 19, 2023

A shepherd must NOT be driven by the world’s agenda or ideology or greed. Righteous paths today are more difficult with all the liberal theology (satanic denial), WOKE, and Marxism pervading society and the church. The pastor must be skilled to lead the sheep in correct ways.

Delight That Transforms Desire PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 21, 2025

True satisfaction comes from delighting in God, who lovingly reshapes and fulfills our desires as we trust and surrender our hearts to Him.

Some of us walked in today with aching hearts, carrying names and needs that feel too heavy for our hands—children we love, futures we can’t forecast, bills that won’t budge, memories that still sting.
