    Surrendering Credentials To Christ

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Mar 13, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,950 views

    If we're not careful, we can get caught up in the world's system of polishing that pedigree. Rather, like the Apostle Paul, we need to surrender all to the great goal of knowing more intimately Christ our Lord. Everything else is secondary.

    Philippians 3:4-14 Surrendering Credentials to Christ Any top-blockers here? Any type-A personalities? Any hard chargers who consistently rank in the top percentile? The military is basically an up-or-out system, so it attracts into career service those who are driven to succeed. Many of you are ...read more

    Our Cross

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jul 17, 2020
     | 3,973 views

    Why do evil people seem to prosper, while good people suffer? Is there any justice? Let’s realize that payday is coming, for good and evil. Let’s discuss carrying our cross in Matthew 16:21-28.

    Fruitfulness (Part 3) Series

    Contributed by Jefferson Williams on Jul 24, 2020
     | 2,378 views

    This fruit is the product of the Spirit’s work inside of us and not an outcome of trying, straining, groaning, or behavior modification on our part.

    Dance Lessons: The Fruit of the Spirit (Part 3) Galatians 5:22-26 Pastor Jefferson M. Williams Chenoa Baptist Church 6-07-2020 SHHHHHHH!

    Jesus Healed Them All

    Contributed by Gerald Manning on Jul 30, 2023
     | 1,523 views

    The very short text, HE HEALED THEM ALL, refers to Jesus healing all the people who had any difficulty whatever.

    SERMON: HE HEALED THEM ALL Scripture Matt 12:9-15 9-10 When Jesus left the field, He entered their meeting place. There was a man there with a crippled hand. They said to Jesus, “Is it legal to heal on the Sabbath?” They were baiting Him. 11-14 He replied, “Is there a person here who, ...read more

    Let us prepare our hearts to become a highway for our God.

    Over thirty percent of the bridges in this country are classified as needing major structural repairs. That doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re taking your life in your hands the minute you start to cross a bridge, but it does mean that, as a whole, our transportation system is wearing out.

    Love Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Jun 19, 2021
     | 4,972 views

    We often think of love as some syrupy, sweet, tingly, sentimental, ooey, gooey feeling. Biblical or divine love, however, is a self-sacrificing, caring commitment that shows itself in seeking the highest good for the one being loved.

    According to the musical wisdom of John, Paul, George, and Ringo ... otherwise known as "The Beatles" to us older folks … “All you need is love, love … love is all you need.” Well … that and food … and shelter … and air … and sleep … Love is literally in the air. You hear that word ...read more

    She knew her abilities were useless! She laid down everything, all the leftovers of the things she had accomplished in life and only held on to one thing, HER FAITH!

    Give it all to Jesus Isa. 40:31 NKJ But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint. But teach me Lord, teach me Lord to wait! When I read this verse the way I take it is, that it ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,820 views

    Romans 1 shows that bad people need Jesus. But Romans 2 shows that the so-called good people need Jesus, too.

    You’re the Man! (And So Am I) Romans 2:1-16 Good morning! Please open your Bibles to Romans 2. I know! You kind of feel like we are starting a brand new series, after five weeks in Romans 1. But actually, we are still in the first section of our outline of Romans. If you remember a few weeks ago, ...read more

    The Spirit Of Fear

    Contributed by Brian Harrell on Nov 29, 2021
     | 5,925 views

    Let's talk about one of the most commonly shared emotions: fear. Fear will cause us to be beaten down, defeated, have drooping shoulders, shuffling feet, unsmiling, critical, distrusting kind of people. How do you know if you are living with the toxin of fear?

    This morning I want to talk about one of the most commonly shared emotions in this building today. It is fear. If there's anything that I think that this pandemic has created and spread more than the disease itself, it is fear. Life is scary. The world is scary Fear will cause us to be beaten ...read more

     | 3,541 views

    No where in Scripture does it say that being a disciple of Jesus will be easy. All Scripture references are from the NASB.

    In this sin sick world we live in, the prevailing attitude is “What’s in it for me?” Even in the church, people choose their church as to what will benefit me the most. Where can I get my needs met. Rarely do you hear of people who feel called to a church because of what they can contribute vice ...read more

    Jesus On Trial

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Mar 25, 2021
     | 2,758 views

    Jesus stepped into a maelstrom and was brought before a court that was losing some of its power and was uncertain about its future given Rome’s growing power and the increasing fear and rising tension amongst the Jewish people.

    I love the Gospel of Mark … well, I love all the gospels … but Mark reminds me of Joe Friday from the 1950s TV series “Dragnet.” Some of us older folks remember Sargent Friday’s famous signature line: “Just the facts.” Mark’s gospel is terse and to the point. He gives us “just the facts” and ...read more

    This sermon introduction emphasizes the importance of private acts of giving, praying, and fasting as taught by Jesus, highlighting the need for a self-giving love that seeks God's approval rather than that of others.

    Hello church and welcome. I am glad we are observing Ash Wednesday together. Today is the first day of Lent, a 40-day period of reflection, prayer, confession, and letting go. We join with believers all over the world during Lent. Lent is a time for us to assess ourselves and make adjustments. It’s ...read more

    Deny Yourself Youth Sermon

    Contributed by Youth Sermons on Sep 4, 2023
    based on 4 ratings
     | 1,531 views

    Denying ourselves means looking introspectively, living with open hands, and not looking back at what we've left behind in order to fully follow Jesus and experience abundant life.

    Today, we're going to talk about going "all in" for Jesus. You know, like when you're playing a game and you give it everything you've got? That's what we're talking about, but with our relationship with Jesus. So, let's dive in! Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up ...read more

     | 1,192 views

    To grow in our relationship with Christ, we must identify and let go of the emotional baggage that hinders us.

    Hey God, help us to drop the stuff that's slowing us down and messing with our relationship with you. Show us how to swap out the bad stuff for the good stuff you've got for us. In Jesus' name, Amen! You know how it feels when you're carrying a heavy backpack all day? It's exhausting, right? Well, ...read more

    Jesus takes our brokenness and makes us whole. He uses our failures and the brokenness of the world to restore and repair us, making us more beautiful and valuable.

    Hey guys, ever had a favorite toy or gadget that broke? You know, like when your phone screen cracks or your favorite game console stops working. It's a bummer, right?
