Today from this passage Peter will outline five key principles that should characterize our lives as we respond to a hostile world and take a stand for Christ.

Take a Stand for Christ with your life! 1 Peter 3:13-17 Introduction I read yesterday that there is a theory that has been around for some time now about “How to boil a live frog”. The theory states that you can boil a live frog in a pot of water, if the water is heated slowly enough — according ...read more

This message examines being a new creation in Christ and what that means for us.

The Looking-Glass Self: Much of who we think we are arises from who others say we are. - There is a sociological idea developed by Charles Cooley in 1902 called the “looking glass self.” The idea is straightforward: much of who we believe ourselves to be comes from what others think of us. - If ...read more

The Baptism Of Jesus

Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Dec 27, 2018

How does the baptism of Jesus relate to ours?

The Baptism of Jesus Luke 3:15-22 The people had heard the apocalyptic message of John the Baptist. He had called the people to radical repentance, with baptism being a sign of that repentance.

The Time Has Come

Contributed by Charles Mallory on Dec 29, 2018

Planning for our eternal future is now; today. We can still plan for our earthly future for a career, marriage, family and finances, but nothing could be more timely than securing our eternal destination.

PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE…IT’S A GOOD THING. WE DO A LOT OF PLANNING: LIFE PLANS SUCH AS COLLEGE, MILITARY, CAREER, MARRIAGE, CHILDREN, FINANCES/SAVINGS. WE HAVE MANY ROUTINE PLANS: VACATION, BIRTHDAYS, ANNIVERSARIES AND HOLIDAYS. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE ALL OUR PLANS IN OUR FUTURE ARE WELL PREPARED FOR ...read more

Repentance

Contributed by Jim Keegan on Dec 27, 2020

Repentance isn’t a one-time change of heart, but it should be an integral part of our spiritual growth. It’s been said that the essential quality of a saint is to have a repentant heart. That requires a sensitive conscience and a teachable spirit.

“Repentance” Matthew 3:1-12 [Read Mt. 3:1-12] I was once asked to preach a revival at a neighboring church, and when I accepted the host pastor told me, “Don’t hold back. The harder the preaching, the more they like it.” That statement took me by surprise. I’m still not sure if that was true ...read more

The American Philosophy

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 9, 2021

God has blessed this nation over the two hundred plus years it has existed, but our sins and growing hatred of God and righteousness has reduced it to a rubble of what it once was. Can anything be done for America to steer it back to its Judeo-Christian foundation? You may not like the answer.

This is a sermon I preached some years ago and recently reviewed it for any rewrites, revisions, or updates. Considering all of the anger, rage, chaos, and moral rot we see in this country, I saw no need to change what the Lord had impressed upon me. Even now it still cries out to anyone having ...read more

Come Unto Me: An Exposition Of Matthew 11:16-30

Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Jun 27, 2020

Jesus' invitation to come to Him has an "or else" component to it.

Come Unto Me: An Exposition of Matthew 11:16-30 The Gospel lectionary text selection for what is called Proper 9, seems at first to be quite odd. The selections are Matthew 11:16-20 and 11:25-30, leaving out what is between. The first selection talks about the people rejecting the message of both ...read more

Satan will use the truth and nothing but the truth, and he will offer you the very best if he can persuade you to get it by disobeying God.

Oliver Wendell Holmes said, "Pretty much all the honest truth-telling there is in the world is done by children." This does not mean, however, that their truth telling is always pleasant. Especially if you have guests, or if you are like the Sunday School teacher who asked too many ...read more
