Christians talk a lot about prayer, and whenever we hear that something bad has happened to someone we know, the first thing we do is go into prayer.

Sticks And Stones Series

Contributed by Jim Drake on Apr 27, 2009

Just as a tiny spark has the power to start a devastating fire, one word has the power to devastate lives, homes, churches and communities. Words can tear down but they also can build up. How do you think the Lord would have us use our words?

http://brushforkbanner.blogspot.com/ We have all either heard or used the phrase, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me.” Is that true? We’ve had kids all over this church who have broken bones in the past year or so. Things like that happen. People get hurt. ...read more

Shaping The Clay Series

I am not much of a gardener. The Scripture says that there is a time to plant and a time to pluck up what is planted, but I must tell you that I don’t know the difference.

Gadarene Demoniac Healed Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 7, 2017

When Jesus stepped ashore, He was met by two men who were under the control of demons. There is only one Devil, so a better translation is demons. They were horrible looking and dangerous.

The Holy Spirit In The Life Of A Christian Series

Contributed by Bill Walker on Feb 7, 2017

THE WORK OF THE HOLY SPIRIT IN THE LIFE OF A CHRISTIAN Someone has said, “You will never truly know the power of God until you need the power of God.” I think that statement equally applies to God’s Holy Spirit. As we mentioned earlier in this series, too often Christians and ...read more
