    How To Become A Good Buddy

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on May 31, 2022
     | 1,725 views

    Body language has become a very important thing these days.

    Body language is used in nearly every aspect of daily life, and observing someone can sometimes tell you a lot about how a person is feeling and what is on their mind. For example, in poker, people try to limit their body language to prevent others from guessing their hand or what they might ...read more

    Finding The Lord’s Will

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 17, 2022
     | 1,228 views

    Some would have us believe that one of the hardest things in this life to find, is the will of God for our lives.

    Illus: Some think that finding the will of God for our life is like playing the game where you put a marble on the table, turn three cups upside down with one of the cups covering the marble. And then someone very quickly switches them around, then you try to guess which cup the marble is under. ...read more

    The Little Man With A Big Need

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 22, 2022
     | 3,083 views

    This is a popular text with preachers, and I have heard several intriguing titles for it besides the one I am using today.

    Here are some of them that I recall: • A man who went out on a limb for Jesus • The Salvation of Shorty the Racketeer • The Short Scoundrel that Seriously Sought The Saviour • Seeking the True Vine By Sitting In A Tall tree Any of these titles would be appropriate for this sermon, but I have ...read more

    Power For Evangelism

     | 3,185 views

    Isaiah’s prophecy applies to believers today, providing the words we need to move us into action in sharing our faith. This passage contains two parts: first, the gospel message; and secondly, assurance for the evangelist.

    Isaiah chapter 55 shares a message that can be applied to those getting ready to embark on a missionary journey, and to those getting prepared to share their faith in Christ. Within this passage is contained a two-part teaching. The first part, found in verses 1-7, shares the basic content of the ...read more

    The Psalm begins with a well known verse and looks at the beauty of Zion, the protection of the Lord, His loving kindness and praise through the earth. Upheld by the right hand of God, we are kept until, and through death.

    Every day they go around destroying: • People’s happiness • People’s lives • People’s character It is just a way of life with them! They are a walking disaster. Illus: They remind me of one of these slimy worms that crawl around and wherever they go they leave behind them a trail of slime. The ...read more

     | 1,936 views

    Jesus Christ is the living Word---God’s Word made flesh giving to us the words of life through His learned tongue to help us from our weariness. Jesus was also given the ability to know how it is that we listen and obey or ignore and rebel (Isaiah 50:4- 5).

    WALKING IN HIS FOOTSTEPS Text: Isaiah 50:4- 9 Isaiah 50:4-9  "The LORD God has given me a learned tongue, so that I may know how to sustain the weary with words. And morning after morning he wakens, and he wakens my ear to listen like those who are being taught.  (5)  My ...read more

    Have you ever had a desire that is so strong you can’t get it out of your mind? You count down the days and then the hours. It is something special you are looking forward to. Then the time of departure arrives and you are so excited Well that is like the experience of this son of Korah.

    Refuting The Entitled Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 7, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,015 views

    In entitlement thinking, “title equals entitlement.” Favor is demanded based on one’s status or position. It seems the descendants of Joseph felt entitled to more land because they were a large tribe; but bigger doesn't equal blessing.

    When it comes to possessing the land, we can’t just stand around waiting for someone to hand it to us. The same is true for those who are drawn to the work of God in our church and who want to partner with us. When we begin making an impact for the kingdom, and as we start leading others to ...read more

    My Salvation Is All About God Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Jan 17, 2022
     | 3,036 views

    Even when it comes to our salvation, it's all about God. We are saved by God's grace and not by our works. Salvation in Christ is spelled "done," not "do." That's why it's all about God and why it is good news.

    A. Here’s a little cooking humor to get us started: There’s a Hollywood recipe for chicken soup and the instructions begin: “First, bring four cups of Perrier water to a boil.” 1. One cook reported that they found a very easy cookie recipe that said to put all the ingredients in a bowl and beat it, ...read more

    Living In The Tree Of Life (Part 2)

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 28, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,022 views

    The tree of the knowledge of good and evil is the formation of a value system; or rather, a "judgement" system. Living in the tree of life is making decisions from life and liberty, and what stimulates life in both you and others.

    This morning’s message is a continuation of last week’s on the tree of life, and I have entitled our sermon, “Living in the Tree of Life” – Part 2. I would like to begin with some food for thought by sharing a real life illustration of a historical figure who walked in the tree of life. George ...read more

    Searching For The Faithful

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 30, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,715 views

    God is searching for the faithful, as He wants to show Himself strong on their behalf. He is seeking those who realize that God is bigger than man’s limited wisdom; and He is seeking those who walk in obedience to His commands.

    George Muller said, “Faith does not operate in the realm of the possible. There is no glory for God in that which is humanly possible. Faith begins where man’s power ends.” I’ve entitled our message for this morning, “Searching for the Faithful,” and it’s based on a verse often used in Scripture ...read more
