    Which day is THE Special Day? Saturday or Sunday? The Old Testament Shabbat or the New Testament Lord's Day? What do you think?

    Exodus 20:8-11 This Special Day! As I prepared this series, I realized how little we actually preach or teach on the Ten Commandments as if they are neither important nor relevant. They are both. It was very enlightening to me to preach through them. I learned a lot! I trust this series will ...read more

    The final of four sermons on Nehemiah, also the introduction of our Corps Vision Statement.

    The man came in and sat down, I’d say he was in his mid-thirties; he looked a bit rough around the edges and hadn’t shaved for a few days. We introduced our selves and the question was asked how are you surviving? “Well I can’t get the benefit right now so I’m doing a few burglaries, mind you it ...read more

    In times and circumstances when we are tempted to worry Jesus gives us the cure: Stay focused on the Kingdom not the Calamity - Learn the value of contentment.

    22.3.09 HANDLING ANXIETY IN A TIME OF ECONOMIC CRISIS Matthew 6:19-34 INTRO How many of you still buy and read a daily newspaper? Most of us keep up with the news one way or the other – either by listening to the radio or watching television news and in-depth reports. Also, increasing numbers of ...read more

    Lord I Think I've Had Enough

     | 27,272 views

    Elijah’s experience tells us that no matter how saved you are you’re going to have some bad days. Your faith will be tried, there are seasons in your life when you will question what you believe, when you will doubt your faith.

    1st Kings 19:4 – LORD I THINK I’VE HAD ENOUGH It is enough; now, 0 LORD, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers. Life is composed of experiences and encounters that provide challenge to one’s character and testing to one’s spirit. Life’s greatest wars are never fought on a ...read more

    Following Jesus: But What Happens When I Blow It? Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Oct 21, 2022
     | 1,804 views

    Even a saint like Peter "blew it" when he denied he knew Jesus. Eventually he was restored to a place of service for the Lord. What happens, or what should I do, when I blow it?

    Note: (Edited from a sermon preached in August 2022 at First Baptist Church, Chamois, MO) Introduction: One reality few of us as believers want to admit is that first, we were born sinners. Paul wrote “All have sinned and come short of God’s Glory (Romans 3:23, paraphrased)” and none of us would ...read more

    If we use the gift of today wisely, we’ll be able to position ourselves for new opportunities.

    USE YOUR TIME WISELY "It happened in the spring of the year, at the time when kings go out to battle, that David sent Joab and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the people of Ammon and besieged Rabbah. But David remained at Jerusalem." 2 Samuel 11:1. At the time ...read more

     | 5,514 views

    As mankind, we are made of the physical, mental and spiritual. In each of these the LORD has given us reset button. God has placed a reset button in this life for us that is meant to revive us, refresh us, transform us, and change our behavior.

    Scripture Reference: Exodus 20:8-11 Preached at Mount Zion Baptist Church on March 1, 2020 Delivered by Rev.

    When Silence Is Not Golden

    Contributed by Daniel Habben on Aug 3, 2014
     | 4,547 views

    Jesus urges Paul to keep preaching in Corinth. Likewise Jesus wants us to keep telling others about him.

    “Silence is golden.” The mother who has just managed to get her toddler to sleep will agree with that statement. For a few peaceful hours there will be no shouts of “Mommy look!” or “Mommy I’m hungry!” Silence is also golden for the weary traveller who has ...read more

    Being engaged in good deeds we will avoid foolish controversies & divisiveness and live a fruitful life. The only evidence the unsaved world has that we belong to God is our godly lives & the deeds God does through us.

    TITUS 3: 8-15 ENGAGE IN GOOD DEEDS The result of the kindness, love, mercy and grace of God is hope. We draw on the riches of God in this life while looking for the blessed hope of Jesus’ return (v. 7). Those that have received these riches and hope in Jesus will live godly lives that ...read more

    Ministry Is A Liability

     | 3,859 views

    A personal story of my first few years in ministry. I tie it into the fact that when you are doing effective ministry you will have enemies. Just as Christ did.

    I was 21 when I first set foot in Connecticut Valley Seventh-Day-Adventist Church. I was nearly a month married, full of enthusiasm and excitement for the adventure of “real” life. Totally unprepared for the reality of it. I was well armed with a bevy of important and well-educated sounding ...read more

    Wisdom From God - James 1:5-7 Series

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jul 21, 2015
     | 8,942 views

    Wisdom! The Lord has it and He wants you to get it from Him! We need to pursue the Lord and His wisdom with a single minded focus in order to glorify God by being "a servant of God and the Lord Jesus Christ".

    Wisdom! Is there anyone here who is wise and has all of the wisdom they will ever need? And, you all have probably heard the old quote attributed to Yogi Berra about the fork in the road, “When you come to a fork in the road, take it!” Life is filled with forks in the road, choices, ...read more

    As it was with Elijah, we, too, often face despair.

    FROM THE MOUNTAIN OF VICTORY TO THE VALLEY OF DESPAIR “And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, also how he had executed all the prophets with the sword. 2 Then Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, “So let the gods do to me, and more also if I do not make your life as the life of ...read more

    Temptation, although common, seperates and isolates and makes you feel like you are on an island. How can we get off Temptation Island?

    Temptation Island Pt. 3 – Temptation Tango I. Introduction Temptation Island is a dangerous place because temptation, when we don’t understand it and learn to deal with it, separates, isolates, and will become the gateway to your demise if you don’t learn to move off the island!
