The Lust Of The Flesh Series

Contributed by Wendon Pettey on Jul 2, 2012

This first message in a series about temptations and how to deal with them, we look at the most obvious: the lusts of the flesh. We identify what they are, how they come against us, and what Scripture tells us to do about them!

KEY SCRIPTURE: 1 John 2:15-17 "Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, ...read more

Building Relationships

Contributed by Tim Smith on Sep 29, 2013

In our Scriptures today, we see two encounters, which lead to making disciples. This encounter and Jesus’ ministry to such folks teaches us that lost people matter to God. All of us are surrounded by people far from God

Building Relationships Luke 15:1-10 and Acts 8:26-40 In our Scriptures today, we see two encounters, which lead to making disciples. The first is when Jesus has a group of tax collectors and sinners who have gathered to hear him talk. Tax collectors were some of the most hated people in ...read more

Prayer Defined

Contributed by David Radcliff on Nov 30, 2017

Prayer is more than saying words. From the Scriptures we learn that true prayer is a combination of bowing the soul before God, pouring out the heart to God. Prayer is asking, talking to God, making our request known to Him.

Afraid Of The Dark

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Oct 31, 2023

For those of you who haven’t experienced Scriptural Gymnastics, the goal is not to turn to every verse we cover, but rather at the very most, write down the address of the verses, so you can go back and dig a little deeper.

o Purpose of today’s message: ? Give us hope and encouragement to move out of the darkness into His marvelous light! Although we won’t get absorbed into darkness today, I’d like to examine some aspects of it. Genesis 1:2- The earth was without form, and void, and darkness was on the face of the ...read more

The Church Does Not Enter The Tribulation – Reasons That Prove It – Part 2 Of 3 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 13, 2023

More scriptural evidence is shown that it is impossible for the Church to enter the Tribulation. We look at what the Apostasy really is, the thief in the night, the call, “Come up here,” the Restrainer the Holy Spirit, and the Day of the LORD. God bless you all.

THE CHURCH DOES NOT ENTER THE TRIBULATION – REASONS THAT PROVE IT – PART 2 OF 3 We continue looking at the reasons that prove the Church, the Body of Christ can have no part in the coming wrath of God in the Tribulation. God’s members of the Bride are delivered from that coming judgement. Of ...read more

On The Third Day

Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Mar 2, 2023

Today, we are going to open the Sacred Scriptures of Almighty God and relive the death, burial and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. Today, we are going to remind ourselves of the truth of the Resurrection. Today, we are going back to the third day.

The resurrection story is captured in three words, "He is risen". Christianity rises or falls on the resurrection of Jesus Christ. If Jesus Christ did not rise from the dead, our faith is a colossal fraud, it's a masterful hoax. If Jesus Christ did not rise from the dead, the songs ...read more

Good Eyesight Spiritually

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Oct 10, 2025

In this passage of scripture, the Lord used the image of eyes to convey an important spiritual principle that we need to consider. We all would agree that eyesight is something that is very important to all of us in this PHYSICAL WORLD, but it is EQUALLY IMPORTAN IN THE SPIRITUAL WORLD.

Illus: Because our eyesight is so crucial to us, He created the eye so it can be protected. For example: • God placed our eyes lower than our forehead so our eyes can be protected by our forehead. • God gave us eyebrows for the purpose to help keep moisture, such as sweat and rain, out of ...read more

Time Spent In God's Word

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Aug 7, 2024

I wonder how much time each of you spend in God's Word each day. These numbers show a troubling imbalance in our lack of time spent in the Scripture and its damaging effect on our spiritual vitality.

If we took a poll here in our church, I wonder how much time each of you spend in God's Word each day. Research shows that the average person is exposed to anywhere between 4,000 and 10,000 messages a day. You are probably thinking, "No way do I receive that many messages." But ...read more

God Raises Ordinary Men For Extraordinary Purposes Series

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Aug 2, 2025

Many people feel disqualified or unworthy of being used by God because of their background, mistakes, or lack of qualifications. However, throughout Scripture, we see a consistent pattern: God delights in raising ordinary men and women to accomplish extraordinary things.

What Are You Eating?

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Sep 1, 2025

When we take Communion we need to be guided by scripture. There are biblical examples that show both good and bad ways to partake. I Corinthians 11:17-22 gives an example of the wrong way and wrong attitudes to partake in communion.

Alba 8-31-2025 WHAT ARE YOU EATING? I Corinthians 11:17-22 We are working through I Corinthians. The church in Corinth had a lot of problems. Thankfully, we don't have most of their problems, but it will be good for us to learn from them so that we don't repeat their troubles. Curry ...read more

The Sin We Excuse

Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 16, 2025

Favoritism is a sin we rarely name and easily excuse, yet Scripture confronts it directly. Drawing from James 2, this sermon calls believers to let mercy triumph over judgment and to live out a faith that loves without partiality.

(Mercy Rides Point and Grace Brings Us Home) James 2:1–13 --- Introduction – Singing on the Trail There’s an old cowboy trail song with a toe-tapping refrain: > “Git along, little dogies, git along, git along… For you know Wyoming will be your new home.” Cowboys sang it to keep a restless ...read more

Interrupted By God: Embracing Divine Disruptions Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Aug 30, 2024

The concept of divine interruption is deeply rooted in Scripture and challenges us to trust in God's sovereignty over our lives. Are we willing to let God change our plans, redirect our steps, and shape our journey?

Interrupted by God: Embracing Divine Disruptions Introduction: Today, we reflect on a powerful quote from Dietrich Bonhoeffer: “We must be ready to allow ourselves to be interrupted by God.” Bonhoeffer, a theologian who lived during a time of great crisis, understood the importance of yielding to ...read more

A Church Built On Christ Series

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Oct 16, 2024

Just what is it that makes a church authentic? The greatest challenge that we find as we try to follow Jesus is dedicating ourselves to the truth of the Scripture in a culture that tends to base their lives on their own opinions instead of on the truth of God's word.

I don't think I need to tell any of you that our church is going through a new phase. We are about to enter into a new stage of growth for this church beginning in January. I have asked God what words can I bring to the church that would make this transition a lot easier so that we can remain ...read more
