    Your life & mine are in the hands of God, & He keeps the clock! So let’s think about God’s perfect timing in the O.T., in the life of Jesus Christ, and in our lives, too.

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK (REVISED: 2017) TEXT: Galatians 4:4-5 ILL. There is a familiar song that begins with these words: “It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas, everywhere you go.” It is a beautiful song that brings back a lot of memories. One stanza ...read more

    The end of the year is approaching, and most of us are very busy. The New Year is rapidly approaching. A lot of us look forward to the new year as a time to make changes, new starts, and for many, a time to think about budgets.

    These Shoes Do Not Fit Christians

     | 4,268 views

    I want to preach to you on a subject I have never preached on and probably one you have never heard preached on. I want to preach about the kind of shoes that do not fit Christians.

    We are all very familiar with the various kinds of shoes that people wear. As I look into the scriptures, I see that there are some shoes that do not fit Christians and we should not be caught wearing them. Before I talk to you about spiritual shoes that we should not wear, I want to tell you ...read more

    Are You Religious? Series

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jan 9, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,423 views

    Typically, a person's idea of being religious is just going through rituals and practices associated with the faith. In James 1:26-27 God defined what it means to be religious. So regardless of what we think it means we need to learn what God said it is.

    ARE YOU RELIGIOUS? (part one) James 1:26-27 INTRODUCTION: When people would ask me if I was religious I would say, no, because to me, being religious kind of had a negative connotation. Because typically, a person's idea of religious is going through rituals and practices associated with the ...read more

    Surprising Grace

    based on 5 ratings
     | 2,563 views

    We think of God’s grace as the forgiveness of our sins, but it is far more than that. David experienced the full gamut of the grace of God in response to his sin.

    Passage: 2 Samuel 12:1-14 Intro: When we think of the word “grace”, the vast majority of believers focus on the forgiveness of our sins. Il) “Wonderful grace of Jesus, greater than all my sins.” “Marvelous grace of our loving Lord, grace that exceeds our sin and our guilt.” Etc. 1. great ...read more

    "Should We Really Be Afraid Of Death?”

    Contributed by Paul Weidner on May 26, 2004
    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,622 views

    If we take the time to realistically examine our culture, especially our western culture, we will readily see that death is not something we think about very much.

    For Christians, the season of Lent is the time of our church year like no other because our focus is drawn on a very unpopular topic, death. We are taken on a journey covering the last weeks of Jesus’ ministry, which ends with his horrible torture and death by crucifixion. But because we ...read more

    Just think of the examples of sports hero’s that had to play their best games hurt. Well, you may have to learn to keep on even when you are hurt.

    LEARNING TO PLAY HURT? (This is part two of a two part series) By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com Many of the thoughts and illustrations in this series I adapted from a sermon by Pastor Wayne B.

    based on 17 ratings
     | 3,221 views

    Too often in the western world, we minimalize connections thinking that teaching principles is enough but 90% of the people who come to church do so on the basis of their friendly connections.

    Enjoy the Synergistic Blessings of Being United in Spirit (Phil. 2:1,2) "Make my joy complete by being of the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in Spirit, intent on one purpose." (Phil. 2:2) "Then make me truly happy by agreeing wholeheartedly with each other, loving one another and ...read more

    If Jesus did all the signs and wonders in Galilee just think of what he’ll do for his hometown. These people truly would witness the Super Bowl of Sermons.

    January 26th 2003 Luke 4:21-30 Then Jesus began to say to them, "Today this scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing." All spoke well of him and were amazed at the gracious words that came from his mouth. They said, "Is not this Joseph’s son?" He said to them, "Doubtless you will quote to ...read more

    based on 9 ratings

    "Stop every day and look at the size of God". Good advice for us all. There’s something else to think about as well. Let’s examine it together!

    Introduction Want answers just ask a teen, they know everything. Well almost everything. Everyone has their limitations. Even God? Well, Yes and No. I don’t want anyone to get the impression that I believe that our God is incapable of anything, He is the God of the IMPOSSIBLE. However, I have ...read more

    based on 15 ratings
     | 6,063 views

    Some people think it,s better to just sleep through life. The whole world changes when we do, so GOD says, "WAKE UP!"

    “Walking Up the Sleepyheads” Text: Romans, Chapter 13 I love to sleep! What I mean is I LOVE to sleep! But sometimes, I sleep too much—or I’m asleep at the wrong times, when I should be accomplishing something. Sleep is a natural function of our bodies and we all need a certain amount of ...read more

     | 15,272 views

    A tribute to the Godly Mother’s which God places in our lives. The Love of a mother is the closest thing that I can think of to a worldly view of "Agape" love of God.

    Praise God for Mother’s I tell you when I call home I so look forward to the voice of my mother. I love my dad, but I do love to talk and spend time with my mother. Why is this so? I know that with certainty the love of a mother for a child far surpasses what is common in our world and ...read more
