Contributed by James Lee on Dec 4, 2015

The Power Of The Tongue

Contributed by Dennis King on Jul 10, 2021

There have never been words spoken more powerfully than in the beginning when God created the heavens and the earth.

The spoken word can be extremely powerful. When humans speak, it can literally mean life or death. If I mention a few words of famous speeches, most senior Americans can readily recall the heart of the message. As time regressive examples: “I have a dream,” by Martin Luther King, 1963. Next, “Ask ...read more

One Thing I Seek Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Apr 16, 2021

Even today the Lord is performing many signs and wonders, there are many who desire to know God, but are unwilling to truly seek after Him. To seek after means to give up all the comforts with the sole purpose to find and attain that which we are searching for.

Psalm 91 - Study 23 - One thing I seek We read in Psalm 91:9-10, “Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.” (KJV) Psalm 91, as we have understood from our studies, is ...read more

A Look At Love

The Rumor Weed

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 4, 2022

Rumors and gossip are things we should avoid at all cost, because the information we spread can be destructive to those individuals when shared with others. Our God is not in the business of tearing down lives, but restoring them.

I’ve entitled our message for this morning “The Rumor Weed,” based on a Veggie Tale’s song. On one episode of Veggie Tales, Junior Asparagus and Laura Carrot learned just how easily rumors can get started when they accidentally launched a whopper of a tale about Larry-Boy’s butler, Alfred, being a ...read more

This sermon looks at how death holds many captive by fear and how we can overcome that fear.
