    The Making Of A Monster Series

    Contributed by Steve Ely on Jan 23, 2022
     | 4,126 views

    Our mind is a battleground. The battle to become more like Jesus takes place in our mind. There are mind monsters that we must confront. It is time to turn on the light!

    I. Introduction I know some of you will think less of me after I admit to you that I can remember when I was a young boy that when I went to bed, I did not want to sleep with my hand hanging off the side of my bed! I know I am supposed to be tough and courageous, but I was afraid that something ...read more

    Who Is Causing The Trouble?

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 4, 2022
     | 1,383 views

    There are many things a congregation of this size will disagree on, but one thing we all would agree on is that we live in a world that has a lot of trouble.

    What we need to do is find out WHO IS CAUSING ALL THE TROUBLE! For example, we constantly hear about the TROUBLE we are having in our schools in America. Consider the shootings, cursing, fighting, rebellion, and low academic achievements. This may sound simplistic, but anyone with common sense ...read more

    A Cunningly Devised Fable? Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 5, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,986 views

    Easter: This message examines a common argument against the resurrection and looks at some simple proofs. We will come to realize that the resurrection did indeed happen, and that it is far from being a cunningly devised fable.

    I wish to begin our message with a quote. Virginia, minister once stated, “We have closed our minds to such trivial considerations as the question of the resurrection of Christ. If you fundamentalists wish to believe that nonsense, we have no objections, but we have more important things to ...read more

    Be Accepting Of The Sick Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Oct 30, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,166 views

    People can become so afraid of catching an illness that they will stay clear of anyone who is sick. Jesus challenged people to realize that caring for the spiritual needs of others far supersedes one’s desire for self-preservation

    I wish to begin our message today with two quotes by Mother Teresa. Here is the first quote: “The biggest disease today is not leprosy or tuberculosis, but rather the feeling of being unwanted.”(1) In her humanitarian efforts in Calcutta, Mother Teresa observed much rejection and hopeless, as ...read more

     | 2,493 views

    Someone once asked a question that I am sure that we could all relate to given that it has happened to you. Does our lifestyle illustrate a walk that bears God’s name?

    THE FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT Text: Galatians 5:1, 13-26 Galatians 5:1 - Galatians 5:13 -26  For freedom Christ has set us free. Stand firm, therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.  (13)  For you were called to freedom, brothers and sisters; only do ...read more

    If the church is going to transform the world, we must be united in our love for Christ and for each other. Anything short of that is defeat.

    Third John 9-10 shows us how a conceited Christian lives.

    Scripture We are closing in on the conclusion of our study in the Apostle John’s letters that I am calling “That You May Know That You Have Eternal Life.” John wrote three letters toward the end of the first century. He was responsible for the churches around Ephesus. He loved the believers in the ...read more

    Beholding And Reflecting Our God Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Dec 13, 2021
     | 4,031 views

    After Moses had beheld God's glory on Mt. Sinai, he could not help but reflect God's glory. That is God's will and plan for us. We are supposed to behold God, become like God, then reflect God to others.

    A. Our mission as children of God and disciples of Jesus Christ is to behold and to reflect our God. 1. Let’s begin with two illustrations – one about beholding and the other about reflecting. B. We are all familiar with the saying: “You Are What You Eat.” 1. I like this meme: “They say you are ...read more

    We're going to look at a phase of Elijah's life as he learned that he could serve even when he was discouraged.

    Happy New Year! I know that it is too early to tell how this year is going to go. These last two years have been pretty rough on everyone. In everything that has gone on in 2020 and 2021, did you ever get to the point where you just felt burned out or ready to give up? That's what ...read more

    Faith Cometh By…

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 22, 2022
     | 1,292 views

    Many of the doctrines of the Bible are both SIMPLE and COMPLEX.

    Faith is one of those doctrines. For example: • It is so simple a child can understand it • It is so deep that you can spend a lifetime studying it, and never be able to comprehend it fully One of the reasons that we do not see the hand of God moving in our churches today, is because of the lack ...read more

     | 1,960 views

    The purpose of this sermon is to show the Saint and the Sinner that God has a plan for our lives.

    Only as we follow this plan, we can obtain what God desires for us to achieve in this life.

    The Essenes were a devoutly religious group (similar to an order of monks) who emphasized spiritual purification and frequent praying. They were a mystic Jewish sect during the Second Temple period that flourished from the 2nd century B.C.E. to the 1st century C.E.

    Building The Lord’s House

     | 5,528 views

    If the church is going to promote abundant life and begin attracting people, it must become more than just a physical structure. It must be seen as a house, or rather, a home. It must become a place where people feel safe and secure.

    There was once a story in the Oregonian, Portland’s morning newspaper, of a man who had helped construct a Roman Catholic Church in Mexico. He used inferior materials in order to make more money. At the dedication of the building, the roof collapsed, killing many of the worshipers including the ...read more
