    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 23, 2022
     | 1,647 views

    Each winter we seem to be plagued with dreadful viruses that make us wonder about two things:

    (1) Americans cannot help but wonder about what the world considers to be the greatest health care, yet it cannot even cure the common cold. Often it seems to us the world’s greatest health care is no more than the world’s greatest racket. We are told that in America we have the best health ...read more

    What Paul’s Conversion Teaches Us!

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 25, 2022
     | 3,462 views

    God had a purpose in recording the conversion of the apostle Paul.

    As we look at the apostle’s Paul’s conversion, we can see clearly he was truly converted. That cannot be said of everyone who professes to be saved! WHY DO WE WONDER ABOUT PEOPLE’S SALVATION? Illus: What would you think of one of our soldiers in Iraq if they were always fraternizing with the ...read more

    Facing The Storm Of Fear

     | 1,366 views

    Something we tell our children during fearful times is, “Do not be afraid!”

    It is easy to speak these words but it is not always easy not to be afraid. Illus: Have you heard about the man who owned a parrot that swore like a sailor? This parrot was so terrible, it could swear for five minutes straight without repeating itself. One day the man finally got tired of this ...read more

     | 2,804 views

    The fifteenth chapter of Luke gives us a wealth of information about a certain Jewish family.

    For example, we know from this scripture: • “A certain man had two sons.” (v. 11) • The younger son seemed to be a problem child. Look at verse 12. We read, “And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me...” • -The younger son was ...read more

    Things We Need For The New Year 1 Of 2

     | 1,021 views

    As we enter a New Year, we never know what things will be like during the next 365 days. Some go to fortunetellers at this time of the year hoping to find out what the future holds for them.

    But God had a purpose in us not knowing everything. Illus: A man was wandering around a fairground and he happened to see a fortuneteller's tent. Thinking it would be good for a laugh, he went inside and sat down. "Ahh....." said the woman, as she gazed into her crystal ball. ...read more

    No Man Careth…

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 4, 2022
     | 1,209 views

    One thing that make many of our lives miserable at time is the LACK OF COMPASSION of those that surround our lives.

    ? Children have no compassion for their parents ? Employer have no compassion for their employees. ? Neighbors have no compassion for their neighbor. The parable of THE LOST SHEEP reveals the COMPASSION OF CHRIST more than any other of Jesus’ parables. It is comforting to know that our Lord ...read more

    Let me ask you TWO questions:

    (1) WHY DOES GOD LOVE MANKIND? Why? Because the Bible says GOD IS LOVE! He can’t help Himself - GOD IS LOVE! (2) WHY DIDN’T GOD MAKE US AS ROBOTS AND CREATE US WHERE WE ALL WOULD HAVE TO LOVE HIM? Illus: Most of us, have seen some of these little doll babies that the toy companies make. As ...read more

    Defeating Discouragement

    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,031 views

    A nationally known preacher told a group of men at a preacher’s conference that HE HAD NEVER BEEN DISCOURAGED A DAY OF HIS LIFE!

    Listen, he lost all credibility with many of the preachers there, because that just sounded like it could not be true. Everyone has to battle some degree of discouragement at some time in life; I MEAN EVERYONE! The Bible tells us that there was none greater born among women than John the Baptist, ...read more

     | 7,555 views

    Many folks are ignorant about the national holidays this country has set aside for us to observe. Veterans day is one of them.

    If you ask some why we observe this day as a national holiday, they know it has something to do with the military, but they do not understand the significance of it. Illus: They remind me of a young man that took his girl friend to her first football game. They arrived at the game when the two ...read more

    Jesus is the reason for the season, and because of that everything about this season can point back to Him in some way.

    The Truth About Christmas Carols Now that Thanksgiving has passed, we’re starting to hear Christmas carols everywhere. Radio stations have them on 24/7, we hear them in movies and on TV; it’s getting harder and harder to find some sort of media that doesn’t have Christmas carols ...read more

    I would like to thank Pastor Jerry Shirley for sharing this series on Acts. It has been a blessing as well as a great help. I have used these for our church, as I spend my days caring for my dying father.

    Revival, God Let It Start With Me. Acts 8:1-8 I love to look back at church history. I especially love reading about those Great Revivals, where entire cities were turned upside down in the Name of Jesus! Some 200+ years ago a preacher named Charles Finney conducted Revivals in the North Eastern ...read more

    Jesus provides promises and proofs of His Deity and Messiahship after two I AM declarations; I am the Door and I am the Good Shepherd

    “Promises and Proofs from the Good Shepherd” John 10:22-42 Last week we heard Jesus make two more “I AM” statements, emphatic declarations of His own Deity, identifying Himself as the YAHWEH, the Lord God of the Old Testament. He said, “I AM the DOOR of the ...read more
