    Humble Thyself

    Contributed by Tim Carpenter on Feb 13, 2019
     | 11,130 views

    Do not exalt yourself. Do not be prideful. Do not claim to be the best at anything, even if it's true. You are not really 10 ft. tall and bullet proof. Even Superman has weakness. Pride is our Kryptonite.

    Humble Thyself Sermon: Feb. 9, 2019 (4th of 11th month) Luke 18:9-14 Two men in the temple. Matt.25:32-46 The response of the saints is "WHEN did we do these things", rather than "YES, I sure did!" They could have said, yes we did these things in order to give glory to GOD, ...read more

    What Does It Mean To Be A Man Of God?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Apr 20, 2023
     | 1,684 views

    The people of Israel had become careless and complacent. God called a man from a small country town to prophesy judgment and preach repentance. This man submitted to God's call to go and prophesy unto Israel.

    The affluent people of Israel were enjoying their life of luxury and prosperity. They had become careless, complacent, mistreating poor people, and selling them into servitude. Before long, Israel would be vanquished by Assyria, and the rich would become slaves. Then in walks a God called man from ...read more

    To be on the mission of mercy is to love being merciful. Some key ideas that come to mind when I think about this...

    THE MISSION OF MERCY Introduction Back in March I sent an email to our elders that has remained on my mind ever since. In part, it read: "I've been contemplating what Forsythe has become over the past couple of years. Our church has really embraced a mission of mercy to the hurting ...read more

    "Can You Hear Me Now?” (Sermon 2 Of 3 On Prayer)

     | 1,425 views

    Pastors do a lot of preaching on prayer because they know how important it is to us Christians.

    But many preachers are guilty of telling Christians they should pray, but they do not tell them from the scriptures HOW TO PRAY EFFECTIVELY. The fact is, if we cannot pray effective prayers why bother to pray at all. If you ask the average Christian do they know how to pray they would tell you ...read more

    God’s will for you every day is to drink of His Spirit, worship in spirit and truth, and tell others about His Son. If you pursue just these three desires of God every day, you’ll live a full life without all the hassle and hurry.

    Alan Fadling, in his book An Unhurried Life, tells a parable of a king who had two servants. One of the servants, for fear of not pleasing his master, rose early each day to hurry along to do all the things that he believed the king wanted done. He didn't want to bother the king with ...read more

    Jesus told a story (parable) about two men who went to the Temple to pray. One man was changed, but the other remained the same. Let's take a look:

    (Based on a message preached at First Baptist Church, Chamois, MO; not an exact transcription) Introduction: Some folks have become concerned about where they’re going when they die.

    “The Great Mercy of God” Luke 18:9-14 Have you ever driven past another person holding a sign “will work for food” and felt a bit of disgust or even contempt in your heart toward them…kind of like a feeling of “I’m better than you”?

    30th Sunday-- The Pharisee And The Tax Collector

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Sep 26, 2022
     | 1,030 views

    Dorotheos said that the Pharisee was doing the right thing when he thanked God for giving him the ability to do good—as should they (the monks) themselves. The Pharisee only did one thing wrong: he passed judgment on the tax collector.

    Our Gospel today begins with some challenging words, “to those who were convinced of their own righteousness and despised everyone else.” There’s an old joke about a psychiatrist who is seeing a new patient for the first time. The psychiatrist says, “I’m not aware of your issue, so maybe you ...read more

    Am I A Whitewashed Christian?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Oct 14, 2022
     | 1,401 views

    A Christian is one who follows Christ and has taken on the instructions, directions, guidance, and characteristics that Christ gave to us. Secondly, what is whitewashed? It is the concealment or covering of flaws, failures, blemishes, or unpleasant facts.

    This is the story of two men who prayed. Undoubtedly many have read or at least heard of this story. So why did I title this sermon "Am I a Whitewashed Christian? Well first, let me ask this, what is a Christian? A Christian is one who follows Christ and has taken on the instructions, ...read more

     | 1,498 views

    Do we use our knowledge of God's word to criticize others, or to become more and more humble about our own sins? Let’s learn that we are all still sinners and that God alone justifies. Let’s discuss self-righteousness and self-justification in Luke 18:9-14.
