Learning That Service Is Satisfying Series

Contributed by Billy Ricks on Jan 13, 2012

Oswald Chambers spoke over 100 years ago prophetically of the time we are living in today. He said, “We are moving into a more spiritual but less Godly time.” There is a desperate need for the church today to surrender their life to Jesus. He tells us

Intro: Oswald Chambers spoke over 100 years ago prophetically of the time we are living in today. He said, “We are moving into a more spiritual but less Godly time.” God clearly tells us to be born again in John 3, we are told by Paul if we are in Christ we are a new creation. More people are ...read more

The Look Of Love Series

Contributed by Kevin Ruffcorn on Aug 4, 2014

One of the basic instructions of Jesus is to love one another. Love is the demonstration that we are in Jesus and Jesus is in us.

1 John 4:7-21 “The Look of Love” INTRODUCTION I read today’s lesson and I was overwhelmed by the number of times that the word “love” appeared. The Beatles song, “All You Need is Love,” popped into my mind and I wondered if this passage of scripture ...read more

The Golden Rule

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Sep 12, 2016

The Golden Rule has always been popular. In fact, the reason it’s called the Golden Rule is because a Roman emperor, Alexander Severus, had this saying of Jesus engraved on his wall in gold. So let’s look at this saying of Jesus called, ‘the Golden Rule'.

THE GOLDEN RULE INTRODUCTION: A rather legalistic Seminary student wanted to have a Scriptural basis for everything he did. He felt he was on solid ground if he could quote the Bible, book, chapter and verse to okay his actions. He did all right with that until he began to fall in love with a ...read more

To Tarry Or Not To Tarry

Contributed by Paul Davidson on May 20, 2016

Let's take a look at 3 Old Testament characters... King Saul, Jonathan, and Jonathan's armor bearer. Let's think about their behaviors and be a little introspective... which traits do I exhibit in my own life? In my own walk with the Lord?

INTRODUCTION The title for tonight’s sermon is “To Tarry or Not To Tarry”, and is from events captured in the book of First Samuel. Before we go any further, let’s go to the Lord in prayer… Please turn in your Bibles to the Old Testament… to the book of First Samuel… chapter 14. We’re going to ...read more

Giving Is Receiving Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Apr 22, 2018

Most today focus more on their personal desires than the needs of others. We are urged to gain all we can and put much of that away in reserve. Society teaches the pathway to success is through gain. The Bible teaches we must give if we are to receive.

Giving is Receiving Acts 20:35 There can be no doubt that we live in a selfish and inward focused world. The majority today have little concern for the needs of others, and few are willing to make any sacrifices to benefit someone else. Dr. Adrian Rogers described the mentality of many today. ...read more

The Widow's Mite

Contributed by Kayode Omotoso on Mar 4, 2015

Irrespective of the quality or quantity, the condition of your heart confers value on your offering before God.

In Luke 21:1-4, Jesus Christ showed us a very significant aspect of acceptable offering. It was in the temple that He witnessed people giving their offerings and among the multitude was a poor widow who offered only two mites. Of these multitude, Jesus Christ adjudged the offering of the poor widow ...read more

Parable Of The Sower

Contributed by Paul Davidson on Jan 26, 2021

I remember sitting, my face wet with tears, as I prayed for God to rescue me and change the soil of my heart into rich, fertile soil. I was tired of just pretending to be a Christian. I no longer wanted to be the person I had become. I surrendered my life to Jesus... and I was forever changed!

INTRODUCTION God has put a message on my heart to share with you from the Gospel of Matthew. This message is actually very special to me personally. It was April of 1993 when I heard someone preach on the “Parable of the Sower” from Matthew 13. We had just survived a very serious car ...read more

An Offering Given In Purity Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Dec 15, 2021

Every believer ought to be a philanthropist in that they seek the welfare of those around them. That is not to say that we support ungodly behavior, but that we seek to assist those in need.

An Offering Given in Purity Matthew 6: 1-4 Today we begin a new chapter in our study of the Sermon on the Mount, but it is just a continuation of what we have studied in the past. We are still dealing with the message Jesus preached to the multitudes. His focus has shifted somewhat, but He ...read more

The Fundamentals Of Fasting Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Feb 2, 2022

Fasting is something that creates uncertainty and anxiety in the minds of many. I think if we will take the time to consider what our Lord has to say and seek to understand fasting, we will become more comfortable with it.

The Fundamentals of Fasting Matthew 6: 16-18 We have come to a portion of Scripture that is little discussed in our day. I don’t think I have ever heard this passage preached or dealt with at length. The focus of this portion of the Sermon on the Mount is fasting. That may be something the average ...read more

Real Love- Part 2 Series

Contributed by Kiruba Stephen on Feb 25, 2022

Imagine, if the Lord’s condition for coming down and dying for our souls and doing anything for us was based on whether we’ll be thankful or not.

Imagine, those ten that were healed of leprosy. If the Lord would have stopped, having the foreknowledge that only one would come back and nine would not give him thanks, He had the choice to say, “I won’t do this for them.” But did the Lord do that? No! He did not. He loved freely. Freely we have ...read more

Sermon: The Characteristics of a Good Shepherd John 10:1-10 ““I tell you the truth, anyone who sneaks over the wall of a sheepfold, rather than going through the gate, must surely be a thief and a robber! 2 But the one who enters through the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 The gatekeeper opens ...read more

If You Love Me Premium Sermon

Contributed by PRO Premium on Oct 9, 2023

The sermon explores the challenge of obeying Jesus' commands of love, forgiveness, and mercy, and the role of the Holy Spirit in empowering believers to live out these commands.

I think we can all admit here today that obedience is difficult. It’s difficult to learn, difficult to teach, and it’s a difficult process to watch play out in the lives of others around us. It’s not something we’re good at, hard wired for, or frankly… enjoy. Once upon a time, there was a young ...read more

Unhindered Forgiveness Premium Sermon

Contributed by PRO Premium on Oct 9, 2023

This sermon explores the concept of unhindered forgiveness made possible through Jesus' sacrifice, replacing the Old Testament's sacrificial system, and the availability of this forgiveness to all who confess and believe.

Welcome back church! Today we’re going to continue on in our series, Unhindered. If you weren’t with us last week, here’s a brief recap; The book of Acts is not a list of attributes to memorize or bullet points to fit into a spreadsheet.
