Fear Or Faith Factor Series

Contributed by Joel Gilbert on May 19, 2025

As Jesus crosses Galilee, facing a storm and interacting with a demon-possessed man, some people respond to Jesus in fear and others in faith.

From 2001-2006, the reality-TV game show Fear Factor brought contestants and viewers alike face to face with fears that they did not know they had. From death-defying stunts, to eating gross concoctions and so much more, contestants faced their fears in order to win challenges in the hopes of ...read more

Have Another Drink

Contributed by James May on Jan 1, 2006

We need another drink of that New Wine of the Holy Ghost. We need the wind of the Spirit and the fire of the Holy Ghost, with a fresh anointing from Heaven if we are going to truly be effective for the Kingdom of God.

HAVE ANOTHER DRINK By Pastor Jim May Acts 2:1-13, "And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

If God Is With Us? Why All This Trouble?

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Jan 21, 2015

This is a lesson about attitudes to problems using Gideon and several illustrations. Consider the renewal of our minds... Your focus? Your perspective, pessimism, optimism, and realism. Caterpillars crawl in mud before they fly with the wind.

What Are You Doing Here?

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Nov 22, 2023

In a season of depression the man of God finds a cave on the mountain side. In his hurt and pain he searches for a touch of God. God was not in the wind, not in the earthquake, not in the fire. Elijah found God in a still small voice.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE? By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com (YouTube: Wade Hughes) WELL. I’M TIRED AND SO WEARY, BUT I MUST GO ALONG; TILL THE LORD COMES AND CALLS ME AWAY, WELL THE MORNING IS SO BRIGHT, AND THE LAMB IS THE LIGHT, AND THE NIGHT, THE NIGHT IS AS FAIR AS THE ...read more

Whisper Of God

Contributed by Bala Samson on Oct 19, 2020

Listen to this, if you do not have the grit and determination to withstand the great, strong wind and still wait to hear God, then you would never get to have the breathtaking experience of hearing the Messiah speak.

Gentle whisper 1 King 19:12” After the earthquake came a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. As the Lord passed by, a great and strong wind was rending the mountains and breaking in pieces the rocks before the LORD but He was not in the wind. Listen ...read more

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jun 6, 2025

On the day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit came down as a mighty rushing wind, and tongues like fire rested upon each of the disciples. This fire was not physical—it was spiritual, but its effects were powerful and undeniable.

Staying Steady In The Storm SermonCentral

Contributed by SermonCentral on Sep 9, 2023

The wind always blows around us. The mighty storm comes sooner or later. We have no choice or control over when the storm comes, so how do we keep our focus?

Today, we will explore the beloved narrative of Peter walking on water found in Matthew 14:22-33. This story holds valuable lessons on the importance of maintaining focus in our lives. Just as in various aspects of our daily activities, focus plays a critical role in our faith. Without focus, our ...read more

Don't Wanna Be A Pharisee

Contributed by Bill Sullivan on Oct 23, 2006

The Pharisees were a group that wanted holiness in their lives and obedience to God, yet Jesus rebuked them more harshly than any other group. Where did they go wrong? How can we avoid their error?

Don’t Wanna Be A Pharisee TCF Sermon October 15, 2006 Let me tell you about two groups of people. The first group of people is deeply concerned about holiness. They are students of the Word of God. They are very careful about obedience to God. They take very seriously God’s admonishment to be ...read more

Providence's Restraint Of Evil Series

Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Sep 15, 2011

Let us look at the end result of those that refuse to hear God's instruction, and do not heed His rebuke concerning the holy state of matrimony. God has foreordained that sin should be its own worst enemy.

PROVERBS 5: 21-23 PROVIDENCE'S RESTRAINT OF EVIL In chapter 5 we have viewed the deadly enticements of sin (5:1-14) and then the happiness provided by keeping the marriage bonds tight and uncorrupted (5:15-20; Heb. 13:4). This should motivate us to avoid adultery and esteem our marriage. ...read more

Being Community Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Jul 26, 2019

In Corinth the Lord’s Supper had become a place where privilege and class diversity was causing division. Through Paul’s rebuke we are called to examine whether our participation in the Lord’s Supper is unworthy.

Message 1 Corinthians 11:17-34 Being Community The church in Corinth is well known as a church with issues. Let’s turn to 1 Corinthians 11:17-34 and read about an issue they were having with the Lord’s Supper.

The Week That Changed The World: The Day Jesus Silenced The Skeptics Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 3, 2021

Shortly after throwing the Pharisees and their cohorts for a loop over the issue of paying taxes to Caesar, the Lord Jesus confronted and rebuked the erroneous Scriptural teachings of the Sadducees, the skeptics of His day. The Scriptures are the best weapon in the arsenal of believers.

There were two main bodies of religious teachers who operated during the time of Jesus until the fall of Jerusalem in A.D. 70. They each had their respective spheres of influence in Jewish society and beliefs. Scripture gives more attention to the Pharisees, and not in a good light as they ...read more

The entire world just disappeared. One minute it was there and the next minute, there it was gone.

Earthquakes Examined Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 20, 2021

The first thing I learned about earthquakes in the New Testament is that they can be completely positive with no harmful effects. Our text is a case in point. Paul and Silas are delivered from prison by the violent earthquake that opened all the doors.

It was in Santa Clara, California, in the summer of 1988 that Lavonne and I experienced our one and only earthquake. We were in a motel and the bed began to vibrate like it does when you put a quarter in the machine at the side of the bed. It only lasted a few seconds, but even that made ...read more
