    What is the health of the spiritual fire within you?

    When the fire dies Job 41:21 1/5/09 His breath kindles coals, And a flame goes out of his mouth. During your life’s journey, you might experience your spiritual fire going out. Things are not exciting as they use to be. Church services are dry and not moving. The real test is the condition of ...read more

    Take A Step Of Faith Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Mar 27, 2022
     | 3,917 views

    We find The Children of Israel on the edge of the promise land. They had been wandering in the wilderness the past forty years. But to possess the Promised Land they must cross the Jordan River at flood stage. Everything was about to change with this step of faith.

    I was eight years old and very surprised that my parents were telling me I would be staying up past my bedtime, but even more surprising is why I will miss my bedtime. The reason was to watch TV. I remember what I saw on TV that night. It was July 20, 1969 and I was watching Neil Armstrong live ...read more

    The Nature Of The Resurrection Body.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 23, 2022
    based on 3 ratings
     | 1,624 views

    Continuity and discontinuity between the natural and the spiritual.

    THE NATURE OF THE RESURRECTION BODY. 1 Corinthians 15:35-38, 1 Corinthians 15:42-50. We can imagine one of Paul’s hecklers in Corinth posing the question, “How are the dead raised? And with what body do they come?” (1 Corinthians 15:35). This does not sound like an inquiry of faith, but ...read more

    The story of Elijah is a great example of prayer. This is an unfinished sermon.

    Something New Is Coming 1 Kings 18:41-46 NLT 41 Then Elijah said to Ahab, “Go get something to eat and drink, for I hear a mighty rainstorm coming!” 42 So Ahab went to eat and drink. But Elijah climbed to the top of Mount Carmel and bowed low to the ground and prayed with his face ...read more

    Gideon, Scientist Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 21, 2020
     | 3,366 views

    Is this pandemic God’s judgement against us? I am reluctant to say it, but what else can it be? It certainly ought to wake up all Americans to our responsibilities to restore goodness to our land.

    Gideon, Scientist Here in the Book of Judges, we see a very sad history. It’s not unlike some of the ages in our nation’s history, including the one we are laboring in today. Time after time we read that “The people of Israel did what was evil in the sight of the Lord; and the Lord gave them into ...read more

    Would you rather sweat and work or work so you can sweat?

    Gen 3:17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life; 18 Thorns also and thistles ...read more

     | 6,768 views

    As far as the biblical record is concerned, some of the greatest achievements in the history of God’s kingdom have come from very ordinary, imperfect people who have overcome failure to be used of God in a significant way. Their lives model some biblical

    A Model Of Ministry

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 9, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,383 views

    We must learn to become all things to all men, that we might indeed WIN/GAIN some for Christ to SAVE.

    A MODEL OF MINISTRY. 1 Corinthians 9:16-23. The Apostle Paul has argued that, as their minister, he had every right to expect a wage from the church in Corinth (1 Corinthians 9:14). However, and somewhat surprisingly, he then turns the idea on its head: ‘Nevertheless, we have not used this ...read more

    The Mercy Formula

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Apr 21, 2017
     | 3,234 views

    The formula goes: (1) We understand God’s mercy for ourselves, which is cognitive, and this leads us to (2) giving mercy to others, which is how we (3) receive mercy for ourselves.

    Matthew 5:7 is a great verse for Divine Mercy Sunday—“Blessed are the merciful, they will receive mercy.” The formula goes: (1) We understand God’s mercy for ourselves, which is cognitive, and this leads us to (2) giving mercy to others, which is how we (3) receive mercy for ourselves.

    The Road To Easter Runs Through A Cemetery

    Contributed by Mari Larson on Apr 23, 2014
     | 4,884 views

    Good Friday was a necessary part of the Easter journey. The sermon shares a Leonard Sweet story about bell-ringing. (Each person who came to worship received a bell as they entered.)

    They thought it was over. Jesus was dead and buried. The religious folks sighed with satisfaction. His followers wept in grief. But they were wrong! They were all wrong! From this side of Easter, we can call Friday “Good” because we know that it was not over, all had not been ...read more
