What Is Your God Story? Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Feb 6, 2026

Following the lead of Psalm 18, this sermon tells 3 "God-stories" where God is glorified (rather than the teller of the stories receiving glory). Do you have a God-Story?

There’s a powerful song by “The Old Paths Quartet” Called “Who Better Than Me” (Play from 0.01 thru 0.59 mark of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQEeUbB6H_A) I really like that song because (like Psalm 18) that song declares “You’ve heard sermons telling what the Lord can do.

Paul’s Service, Speech, And Stand

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 16, 2021

A song that a lot of churches used to sing a lot, was, “I shall not be moved.

The chorus of that song goes like this, “I shall not be, I shall not be moved; I shall not be, I shall not be moved: just like a tree that’s planted by the waters, Lord, I shall not be moved.” But the problem with many of the saints of God singing that song is that they are not like a tree planted ...read more

Satanic Legal Grounds And Access Points - Sexual Perversion Series

Contributed by Joseph Ondu on Apr 4, 2023

Sexual pleasure was never created by Satan, but he has hijacked and perverted it to advance his diabolical agendas of destroying mankind. I am taking this much time on this access point because this is one of Satan`s major tripping points against majority of humanity.

Neither give place to the devil. ( Ephesians 4:27) One of the outstanding trademarks of every form of false religion, cults, occultic, and secret societies, or satanic group is sexual perversion. Sexual perversion is one of Satan`s major access point and weapon of mass destruction. He used it to ...read more

Time To Stand Strong, And Draw Your Sword (Ephesians 6:10-20) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Oct 17, 2025

Everyone seems to know the unseen spiritual world is real, and interacts with ours. How can we be safe from harmful spirits? And how we can fight for Jesus, against Satan, in this world?

We live in an age where there is great interest in the unseen spiritual world. There are many TV shows and movies that have to do with battles between humans, and evil spirits. And my guess is that the reason we have so many, and they are so popular, is that we as a society recognize that there ...read more
