    Listen to what Joshua was facing in today’s scripture reading. Sometimes we’re faced with situations that uproot us and cause us to go deep within ourselves. How do you let go and let God have control?

    based on 78 ratings
     | 15,494 views

    Most of us think we have worshiped when we have felt the music has been uplifting and the sermon challenging... but Scripture seems to say something else. What do you think God believes is the mark of true worship?

    OPEN: I love to collect stories, jokes and all kinds of odd information. As I was going through my files, I happened on the following oddities about how did we ended up with the measurements we now use as a society. • Inch – was based upon a King by the name of Edgar… and an inch was the distance ...read more

    based on 44 ratings
     | 4,679 views

    FAITH is one of the great themes of all of Scripture. Because of the abuse of Faith by some, we often avoid preaching or talking about it. It has been my experience that whenever there is a battleground over a Bible text or Doctrine, ther is something Sat

    The Adventure of Faith Hebrews 11:1-10 Eph 2:8 …For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Rom 1:17b …The just shall live by faith.

    based on 45 ratings
     | 7,838 views

    In this message we will look at examples in the scripture where God literally told people to shut their mouths. Sometimes we need to be silent before God, and receive instruction, rather than shooting off the mouth and explaining things from our perspecti

    “Well, Shut My Mouth” Joshua 7:6-10 And Joshua rent his clothes, and fell to the earth upon his face before the ark of the LORD until the eventide, he and the elders of Israel, and put dust upon their heads.

     | 17,291 views

    If we close our lives to the work of Angels we miss a big part of what God wants to do with us! So what are some of the Biblical basis for Angels and what are some of the things we know about them because of the Scripture?

    ANGELS WATCHING OVER YOU Psalm 91:11 For he orders his angels to protect you wherever you go.12 They will hold you with their hands to keep you from striking your foot on a stone. Psalm 34:7 For the angel of the LORD guards all who fear him, and he rescues them. My first Pastor said to me ...read more

  • Restoring The Cars

    Contributed by Michael Trask on May 15, 2006
    based on 7 ratings
     | 10,411 views

    This wonderful section of scripture on the Love of God and our Love for others is explained by way of an extended analogy. God is like a "car guy" who sees a "classic" in a rust bomb. We must have the same eyes when we consider others.

    Have you ever known one of those guys who are into restoring cars? Most of us do. They scour the junkyards and the abandoned farmsteads of the midwest looking for old wrecks. When you we see a dilapidated old rust bomb sitting out in a field with weeds growing through the rusty ...read more

     | 4,394 views

    Our Scripture today also addresses something that each one of us owes. It’s one of what’s known as the four marks of the church. These are essentials to our faith and are characterized by “Grace-Full Living”.

    Exodus 20:18-21 Romans 13:8-14 Acts 2:42-47 John 15:12 Deut. 6:5 There’s a cartoon of Snoopy typing a letter on top of his doghouse. The letter begins this way: “Dear IRS.” Snoopy thinks for a moment and then finishes, “I am writing to you to cancel my subscription. ...read more

     | 4,941 views

  • Receiving And Treasuring

    Contributed by Ed Warfield on Apr 3, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,108 views

    If we don’t understand the purpose of the Word, we’ll miss out on the life of God. Through His Word, God transforms us more into his likeness. Every word in scripture is a doorway to the heart of God and a stairway into the realms of God.

    Receiving and Treasuring – Proverbs 2:1 Intro.: The first focus that Solomon lays out has to do with the way we treat the Word of God. Proverbs 2:1 – “…if you receive my words and treasure my commands within you…” The “receiving” refers to how we posture ourselves before the Word of God and ...read more

  • Dare To Be Humble

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Aug 28, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 17,033 views

    Jesus uses a couple of etiquette lessons to teach true humility. The point is simple (and repeated throughout scripture): If we lift ourselves up, God will put us down. If we lift others up, God will lift us up.

    Luke 14:1, 7-14 Dare to Be Humble The Duke of Wellington once haughtily drew himself up to his full height and thundered to one of his staff officers, “God knows I have many faults, but being wrong is not one of them!” The best of us struggle with pride from time to time. In ...read more

  • Becoming A Heavenly Rebel

    Contributed by Shawn Miller on Oct 26, 2016
     | 3,765 views

    We are called to be Heavenly Rebels! We are to rise up against the established institutions of secularism and to rebel against the "god of this age" (2 Cor. 4:4) and take a bold stand for Christ. Here are 3 scriptural ways how to be a heavenly rebel.

    Becoming A Heavenly Rebel Introduction:  The word "Rebel" is defined as  "to rise in opposition or armed resistance to an established government or ruler." The ultimate rebellion is to rise up against the ultimate authority, which is God.  And those who do, will pay the ultimate price, which is ...read more
