    Being Smart Spiritually Series

    Contributed by Brian Atwood on Mar 22, 2008
    based on 14 ratings
     | 9,516 views

    Tests of authenticity that prove the validity of Christianity and the failure of other forms of spirituality.

    A Muslim heard the good news about Jesus and decided to become a Christian. His Islamic friends asked him, “Why on earth have you done such a thing? What could possibly cause you to leave the religion you grew up with, the faith of your fathers, and turn to following Jesus?” “Well,” he replied, ...read more

    Facing Trials With Joy

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jan 16, 2012
     | 8,786 views

    Some people consider it pure joy when they escape trials. But James calls us to consider it pure joy when we face trials. This seems like an impossible thing to be able to do. What do we need to have if we are going to have joy in the midst of trials?

    FACING TRIALS WITH JOY James 1:1-12 INTRODUCTION: Some people consider it pure joy when they escape trials. But James calls us to consider it pure joy when we face trials.

    Are Your Satisfied?

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Nov 23, 2011
    based on 8 ratings
     | 8,008 views

    God wants us to bless (and thank) him AFTER he blesses us. It is easy to be God-conscious when we are in need; it is another thing when we are satisfied.

    Who said: “We have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of Heaven. We have been preserved these many years in peace and prosperity. We have grown in numbers, wealth and power as no other nation has ever grown. But we have forgotten God. We have forgotten the gracious Hand which ...read more

    In spite of building our lives on Jesus Christ, there will be times we go through the fire. But we will be purified, coming out cleaner, brighter, and tested.

    Thank God for the Fire! Community Thanksgiving Service, November 25, 1998 Vallonia, Indiana Introduction: As much as I enjoy contemporary worship, some of the old hymns are being forgotten. Others are reserved just for special seasons. Do "We gather together to ask the Lord’s blessing" in May? ...read more

    Tempted

    Contributed by Bill Butsko on Feb 20, 2010
     | 3,732 views

    We all face temptation, but with the Word of God, we have a way to escape falling into sin.

    Text: “No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it” (1 Corinthians 10:13). Why would Paul give this ...read more

     | 22,833 views

    Just Because You Are God’s Own Or Anointed Does Not Mean You Will Not Go Through Suffering & Pains. There are multiple passages in which the Bible tells us that before God can use us, He must break us. David is no exception. David will lose everything...

    We may well find, like Moses, that the answer is already to hand.

    A PLACE OF NO WATER. Exodus 17:1-7. Moses must have been pretty near the end of his tether (Exodus 17:4). After all, the LORD had already heard the cries of His people in their bondage (Exodus 3:7), and sent Moses to them: but it had been all Moses could do to convince them to accept ...read more

    Satan wants to convince us our problems are greater than they are. However, like David, we need to rush Satan and not cower.

    When God Asks For Your Isaac Series

    based on 10 ratings
     | 86,864 views

    God asked Abraham to lay down his Isaac. His story is an incredible picture of the Cross and how God loved us enough to surrender His Son, Jesus, for our sin. Do we love Him enough to surrender our Isaac today?

    It has been said that Christians are like tea bags……they always do best when they get in hot water. In Genesis chapter 22, we find Abraham in the hottest water of his life as God tries his faith. The Bible teaches three key truths about trials in the life of a believer: 1) Trials come to ...read more

    Gideon - Part 3 Series

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Oct 22, 2014
     | 5,848 views

    This sermon takes us through the bulk of Judges 6 mostly as a narrative with some insight included. It then returns to vs 13 where Gideon accuses God of abandonment. Compares Gideon's doubts w/David's eagerness w/Goliath. Then asks, "How about you?"

    We’ve been taking a look at the life of Gideon, one of the Judges of Israel in the Old Testament. Was he someone we should model our lives after, someone we should avoid or something in between? Hebrews 11:32-34 “(32) And what more shall I say? I do not have time to tell about Gideon, ...read more

    Satan prowls like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. We are the prey he wants to destroy. Each believer faces attacks. We must learn how to survive the attack when Satan seeks to devour us. So, What do you do when you find yourself on the menu?

    WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU’RE ON THE MENU! Daniel 6:1-28 1 Pet 5:8 Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.

    The Pit Is Not The End Series

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Feb 16, 2026
     | 77 views

    The pit represents seasons of rejection, isolation, and hardship; yet in God’s divine agenda, the pit is never the conclusion of destiny but a passage toward elevation and fulfillment.
