    The Dead Church (The Church Of Sardis)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jul 31, 2025
     | 349 views

    In this message I will be preaching about the church of Sardis which is known as the DEAD CHURCH. No one will admit they attend a dead church but all over this great nation of ours that is exactly what some people are doing.

    Illus: Some churches have cemeteries on their properties. Your church does not have to have a cemetery to be a dead church. Illus: Vance Havner once commented that ministries often begin with a man who has a vision. That vision is captured by others and becomes a movement. As the movement gains ...read more

    A Victory Proclamation Series

    based on 74 ratings
     | 11,486 views

    In this difficult passage, we’re told that Jesus "preached unto the spirits in prison..." To understand the passage we need to answer the basic questions...How? When? Who? Where? And Why is Peter telling us this?

     | 4,727 views

    This is a fun sermon to preach! God’s call extends from the ordinary (apostles) to the extraordinary (Jonah). Many times God calls us through the subtlety of invitation as in this text. We are invited to go and do likewise.
