    Resurrection Mercy

    Contributed by David Owens on Apr 2, 2024
     | 812 views

    The crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus provide the mercy of God that all of us need. In John 21, the resurrected Jesus appeared offered Peter the mercy of God that Peter so desperately needed.

    A. How great it is to worship the Lord together today, on the Sunday that many refer to as Easter Sunday, or Resurrection Sunday, because it correlates to the Sunday that Jesus arose from the grave two thousand years ago. 1. Praise God that the tomb of Jesus is still empty! 2. Turn to the person ...read more

    The Great Depression # 4

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 31, 2021
     | 1,201 views

    Last week, as we considered THE GREAT DEPRESSION, we dealt with the life of Elijah. He is the ideal person to study when you study the subject of depression.

    WHY IS HE THE IDEAL CANDIDATE FOR THIS STUDY? Because of what the Word of God says about him. Look at James 5:17, we read, "Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are…" Elijah represents us in that - (1) HE HAD HIS HIGH DAYS He enjoyed the highest of highs. We Americans ...read more

    The Lords Marvelous Change

    Contributed by Charles Jones on Jan 1, 2022
     | 6,672 views

    Salvation is a change which we often try to describe but cannot express, the only way we can describe it is that God filled us with joy unspeakable and full of glory.

    The Marvelous Change He Changed My Life 1Pe 2:9 "But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should show forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light"—1Pe 2:9. But you are a chosen race, a ...read more

    Mentoring A Teammate Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 5, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,799 views

    There are certain tasks in ministry that are too big to handle by yourself, so you need to select and train a teammate. Moses enlisted Joshua as his teammate, and mentored him in envisioning and realizing the dream of the Promised Land.

    You have fought the good fight, you have stayed the course, you have kept the faith (2 Timothy 4:7), and you are now on the precipice of realizing your hard sought-after calling. In pursuit of God’s best you may have wrestled with and overcome some internal spiritual battles, and individually ...read more

    Creating A Refuge Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 7, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,270 views

    Claiming new spiritual territory is difficult. All who seek to follow Jesus in faithful obedience while walking in hostile territory need a place of refuge. It’s up to the body of Christ to create that safe haven for both ourselves and others.

    Conquering the land, or claiming new spiritual territory, involves grueling spiritual labor. We will encounter resistance, or even minor persecution, when sharing the message of salvation in Jesus Christ; and we can grow weary if we do not have times of refreshing. We’ve got to find a safe haven ...read more

    A sermon on the Feeding of the 5000+ in Matthew

    This week, more than any other week in America, is a week of food! All across the land, home cooks have already begun the preparation of a menu, the procurement of ingredients, the planning of where and how all foods shall be consumed on the ONE day we collectively set apart for gratitude…which ...read more

    "...no Man Cared For My Soul”

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 21, 2022
     | 3,218 views

    Most of us love to read the Psalms because we can relate to the many things David, and the other writers, express in this beautiful book.

    For example, in the case of Psalm 142, David pours out his heart to God. Once David was king, he had many good experiences as ruler over God’s people, but for a while before he became king, he had some experiences that could be classified as downright abusive. Many times he had to flee for his ...read more

    Herodias Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jan 23, 2022
     | 5,357 views

    Herodias in the Bible is notorious for being the woman who desired John the Baptist's head on a platter. She was the unlawful wife of the tetrarch Herod Antipas and had formerly been Herod's brother, Philip.

    Herodias Herodias was a princess of the Herodian dynasty of Judaea during the Roman Empire. Christian writings connect her with John the Baptist's execution. Born: 15 B.C. Died: 39 AD, Lyon, France Spouse: Herod Antipas (m. ?–39 AD), Herod II Children: Salome, Salomé II Parents: ...read more

    Our Overflowing Hope (Believing Hope)

    Contributed by Cesar Datuin on Jan 25, 2022
     | 4,283 views

    In these times of hardships and trials we face every day, we need an overflowing hope that will sustain and strengthen us. The purpose of this exhortation is for us to continue to believe that there is still hope in the midst of these adversities in life.

    Intro Good morning. We are now on our 4th week for this 1st month of 2022 with the theme Believing Hope and most of us are still confined in our homes due to the restrictions our government imposed on this time of pandemic.

    Esau's Egregious Errors

    Contributed by David Nolte on Aug 29, 2022
     | 2,941 views

    When we want instant gratification, we commit the same kind of errors as did Esau.

    Jacob and Esau were twins but they were as different as day and night. 1. Jacob was more the domestic Homeboy who enjoyed the quieter things while Esau was the hunter out in the woods bringing game for the table. 2. Jacob was smooth of skin, Esau had a hairy body. 3. Jacob was suave, Esau ...read more

    Holding On . . . But Letting Go – Be Steadfast In Hope And Waiting Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 14, 2022
     | 2,834 views

    We have a precious faith and we must hold on to it firmly. Commitment grasps that faith. Holding on to God's promises is essential. We look at the often misapplied verses of Hebrews 6 and who it was who actually let go. They are NOT Christians.

    Message - Holding On But Letting Go Red Cross Hall 19 July 2014 HOLDING ON . . . BUT LETTING GO – BE STEADFAST IN HOPE AND WAITING The subject here may seem like an apparent contradiction (an oxymoron); something we hold on to but let go of it. Well, that gets us nowhere, unless there is a ...read more

    Caring For Godly Leadership - Pastor's Appreciation

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Sep 14, 2022
     | 4,614 views

    What do you do when you’re faced with opposition? Who do you tell? How do you develop the strength to keep pushing, even when it feels like everything is working against you? David would become Israel’s greatest king, but now he tired.

The first was Jashobeam (people will return) the Hacmonite, who was leader of the Three—the three mightiest warriors among David’s men. He once used his spear to kill 800 ...read more

    Who of us has cornered the market for craziness in our family? It seems that broken families and dysfunctional families are everywhere. There’s hope for even crazy families because of Jesus Christ. Great things can come from broken families.
