Taking A Look At Family

Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Dec 8, 2012

There’s that thread again, “in the same way.” In what way are husbands to give honor to their wives? In the same way that gives God the glory and makes His name more famous in the community. The motive matters. If our homes look like God arranged them

1 Peter 3 is just one of many Scriptures that deal with our human families and the church family in the same context. One reason why the definition of marriage in our modern environment is so important is because God uses the analogy of human marriage to explain His divine relationship with his ...read more

"i'm On An Unsinkable Ship."

Contributed by Dr. Jerry Hulse on Apr 2, 2024

This message compares a figurative ship called "The Ole Ship of Zion" with the power of the gospel. The gospel encounters opposition from worldly forces as the ship sails on treacherous waters. However, the gospel message continues to thrive and change hearts and lives even today.

I'm Still Here — Because He's Able! PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 18, 2025

God lovingly keeps us from falling, presents us blameless with joy, and deserves our wholehearted worship because His grace is greater than our weakness.

Pornography And Immorality PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 23, 2025

True freedom is found not in following worldly desires, but in surrendering to Christ, who offers cleansing, strength, and grace for purity of heart.

Church family, I’m so grateful we’re together today. You look across a room like this and you see faces, but the Father sees stories—stories of hope and hurt, of wins and wounds, of prayers whispered in the dark. He sees the real you, and He smiles with a shepherd’s kindness. He knows the tug of ...read more
