When Your Situation Seems Impossible Series

Contributed by David Dykes on Jan 25, 2018

Our greatest need to fill the sense of spiritual hunger. If you are hungry, you can eat bread and be satisfied for a few hours and then you get hungry again. But Jesus can fill a spiritual need that will satisfy you for eternity.

INTRODUCTION Life is full of impossible situations. And everyone has different advice to pass on to you during tough times. Someone has said the best way to deal with your problems is to laugh at them. But someone else said that laughing at your problems is like changing a baby’s diaper. It ...read more

Jesus Does All Things Well Series

Contributed by David Owens on Jul 24, 2023

In this section of the Gospel of Mark, Mark shares two stories about Jesus ministering to two Gentiles. As Jesus ministered to them in unique and marvelous ways, we see how it is true that He does all things well. We can trust that Jesus will continue to do all things well in our lives.

Introduction: A. I’m sure you have heard of the saying, “Jack of all trades and master of none.” 1. I wasn’t familiar with this version that says: “A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one.” I can see how that could be true. 2.

Help! I Can't Pray Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 19, 2021

Paul knew what he was saying when he said we know not how to pray as we ought. We can't depend upon prayer. We need to depend upon God. Prayer is not the answer, but God is. Prayer can even be a danger to the best in life.

One of the perplexing of all life's paradoxes is the fact that God often answers our prayers by refusing to answer our prayers. One of the greatest examples of this in history is that of Monica praying for her son Augustine. All night in a sea side chapel on the North African coast she pleaded ...read more

Looking For Home Series

Funeral Sermon: Many people have a longing inside and life seems dissatisfying. They are actually searching for home. Our true home is in heaven; but until we reach heaven, Jesus is our home. He is also our guide leading us home.

Let me assure you that Marshall was a Christian. He had a personal ...read more
