    Sermon # 17 - Overcome Fear With Faith Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on May 2, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 301 views

    Fear is real and there are many situations that disturb us and create a sense of fear in our hearts. If we recognize that God is our shield, and put our faith in Him, all our fears are annulled and will be replaced with courage and peace.

(GW) God knows our name There were certain events that transpired in Abram’s life that left him with a sense of fear and ...read more

    King David’s Theme Song Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Sep 2, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,097 views

    We will look at King David’s Theme song. This song has extremely high praise of God and is filled with metaphors. Some of the metaphors describe God as, a Rock, a Fortress, deliverer, refuge, shield, salvation, strength and lamp.

    You probably can sing a television theme song, and someone could name that tune right away. The theme song identifies the show. Even when the older shows are gone their theme song live on. If any of us sang Gilligan’s Island or Beverly Hillbillies, then the rest of us could sing along. Do you ...read more

    God’s Protection Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jul 24, 2023
     | 3,686 views

    The devil took this passage to entice Jesus to jump off the pinnacle. The devil used or misused this text as though it provides unconditional security in any and every circumstance. Jesus own experience shows that even faithful ones suffer, have emotional anguish and physical pain.

    The theme of this Psalm is God’s protection. There is a sense that Psalm 91 stands alone from all other passages of the Bible. It contains the only passage of the Bible quoted by the devil. Scripture teaches us that God protects those who love him and will help them in their trouble. The devil ...read more
