    Christian Benefits

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 3, 2022
     | 1,772 views

    We all have had someone come to us and say, "I have some good news and some bad news to tell you."

    I do not know about you, but I always cringe when someone says that, because I know the bad news has to be very bad when it has to be softened with some good news first. Illus: The story is told of a lady who went to a doctor because of her obesity problem. The doctor knew how much she loved to ...read more

    David And His Ark Series

     | 8,969 views

    There’s only one object, however, from what I can tell, in all the history of the Bible, that God routinely attached his presence to – the Ark of the Covenant.

    The Aim of This Series Today, we continue a series designed to show you what happens when God shows up. All of this series is devoted to what theologians call a theophany. A theophany literally means “to show God.” These encounters are called visitations and they are almost always following a ...read more

    The Unsafe Savior Series

     | 7,781 views

    Why is Christmas seemingly under attack? Why would a seemingly harmless story of a baby in a manger stall elicit such anger and opposition?

    OPEN: James Martin (in an article in the devotional "The Upper Room") wrote the following: On a trip to the Holy Land, I bought a nativity set for my Sunday School. It was carved out of olive wood in Bethlehem itself, and had all the traditional figures - sheep and oxen, wise men and shepherds. ...read more

    Explore the transformative power of faith through the story of the Woman at the Well, emphasizing that faith is not just about belief, but a focus on God, the savior.

    Good morning, brothers and sisters in Christ! I'm so delighted you're here today. We're going to dive into a truly inspiring story from the book of John today about a woman who was transformed by the living water of faith. As we get started, let me share a quote from A.W. Tozer.

    God didn't waste any time telling us that Christmas was coming. He began predicting Jesus' appearance in the very first book of the Bible.

    God’s First Promise Date: November 27, 2011 Scripture: Genesis 3:1-24 Introduction I came across a story/man/very qualified TV meteorologist  But for Some reason he did a terrible job when it came to actually forecasting the weather.  In fact, he became/local joke when a ...read more

    What A Mother's Day!

    Uses the story of Jesus' resurrection of the widow's son in Luke 7 to remind us of the joy and difficulty that can come on Mother's Day.

    Since today is Mother’s Day, I thought I would begin with some possibilities for a list called “Murphy’s Laws of Parenting.” Murphy’s law is the idea that anything that can go wrong, will go wrong. So these are kind of some laws of how things can go wrong for moms or ...read more

    In Mary's Song we find three solutions for the excuses Christians often use to not tell the whole world about Jesus on His birthday!

    Mary’s Song Luke 1:39-55 Online Sermon: http://www.mckeesfamily.com/?page_id=3567 Blessed are those who believe in Jesus! Last sermon entitled “Go and Tell” we examined the song of Zachariah and in doing so stressed the importance of Christ’s ambassadors, i.e. us Christians, to go and tell ...read more

    The Ark Of The Lord

    based on 120 ratings
     | 16,424 views

    The story of the Ark’s return to Jerusalem is a sharp reminder of what happens if God’s instructions are flouted and the blessing that obedience brings.

    THE ARK OF THE LORD I expect some of you will, like me, have wasted a couple of hours watching the film "Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark". It’s a fantasy adventure story loosely based on the fact that the Ark of the Covenant was lost without trace nearly two and a half thousand ...read more

    Examines the attitudes and actions of each of the figures in the nativity set. If we follow in their footsteps we can be a part of the Christmas story too.

    1. Each of us have Christmas traditions. One of the most important ones for our family is putting out the nativity set. This is our family set here. Last year I brought this set and talked about the people who missed their opportunity to be a part of the story--the innkeeper, the people of ...read more

     | 6,841 views

    In a world that tells you there are so many differant ways to get to heaven, how can we know that Jesus is the only way to heaven?

    Why Is Jesus Christ the Only Way of Salvation? Galatians 1:6-9 The first attack on this subject will usually be the Holy Scriptures. People will tell you that it is old and out dated and it cant apply to our lives today. If you destroy the Holy Scriptures or even if you say that one thing is ...read more

    The Bible repeatedly tells us we were created with a purpose. So, why do we have such a hard time believing that?

    OPEN: Several years ago, the Country Gazette in Franklin, Massachusetts had this listing in its classified section: “Unknown item for sale. We know it’s valuable; we don’t know what it is. If you can identify it, we’ll sell it for $250.” APPLY: Now isn’t that interesting? They had no idea what ...read more

    Most people look at themselves and see all their faults and this verse tells us to look at the Glory of the Lord in us; and it will change our life!!!!

    Man in The Mirror 2 Cor. 3:18 After being away on business, a man thought it would be nice to bring his wife a little gift. “How about some perfume?” he asked the cosmetics clerk. She showed him a bottle costing $50.00. “That’s a bit much,” he said, so she returned with a smaller bottle for ...read more

    Counterfeit Theology Series

    based on 41 ratings
     | 8,422 views

    How can you tell real doctrine from false? It involves knowing the source of the information and knowing the real thing very well.

    In this chapter Paul reveals the source behind the false doctrine that was spreading around Ephesus - commands Timothy to point them out, then encourages him to keep doing the things a pastor does, even if people put him down. As a pastor in this role Timothy needed: - A strong sense of the ...read more

    The people we spend our time with will influence our walk with God. This Psalm tells us how to walk in order to be blessed of God.

    This short Psalm gives us some very profound guidelines to help us live a life of Godliness. Let us notice a few things about the individual who the Psalmist considers blessed. I. His choice of friends A. His walk. >Not in the counsel of ungodly people. >Ungodly people are those who are good, ...read more

    Speaks of Christ bringing the light of hope into a dark world on Christmas. Tells how Christ can bring hope to our darkness too.

    The Light Has Come The author, M. Scott Peck once said, “Life is difficult.” This is a simple, yet profound statement. It seems in this day and age like we have to work an eternity just to survive. It used to be that we put in long hours and worked weekends or a second job in order to get ahead, ...read more
