    The Names Of Jesus At Christmas

    Contributed by Joseph Ondu on Dec 12, 2024
     | 831 views

    The names of Jesus also challenge us to live in response to His identity. If He is Emmanuel, then we are never alone, and we are called to bring His presence into the lives of others.

    The Names of Jesus at Christmas Names carry significance, and in the Bible, they often reveal something profound about a person’s character, mission, or identity. This is especially true of the names of Jesus, which reflect His divine purpose and the hope He brings to the world. At Christmas, we ...read more

     | 627 views

    To prevent heart loss, declare Christ and demonstrate Christ as you depend on Him.

    Mrs. Shank from Olathe, Kansas, talks about a hot summer day when she was sitting near an open window sewing and keeping an eye on her three grandsons playing outside. “Let's play cops and robbers,” said Mike. “I'll be a robber!” Terry and Melvin wanted the same role, so they needed ...read more

     | 5,390 views

    First sermon I preached at our new church plant, The Road, www.tiftonroad.org. It was about the willingness of Paul to totally rely on Christ, rather than any earthly accomplishment or accolade.

    How Jesus Dealt With Rejection

    Contributed by Spencer Miller on Mar 10, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,006 views

    How should we deal with or respond to rejection? It’s a very good question especially when it comes to the Church.

    The now infamous Lance Armstrong once said, “A boo is a lot louder than a cheer.” And he actually hit the nail on the head, because no one wants to be rejected. It can make you come to the conclusion Oprah Winfrey came to when she said, “I don’t want anyone who doesn’t want me” because no one ...read more

    Meet Me At The River

    based on 32 ratings

    I preached this sermon the Sunday prior to our annual fall revival meetings. The steps Ezra took the people through in this passage were foundational to the revival they experienced in Nehemiah 8 and 9.

    1. Fasting is required for revival (8:21-23) 2. Faith is required for revival (8:24-30) 3. Follow-through is required for revival (8:31) In just a minute, we’re going to read Nehemiah 9:5-6. But that’s not our text tonight. That is the result of our text tonight. Our text is actually going to ...read more

    The Dead Church (The Church Of Sardis)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jul 31, 2025
     | 299 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

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Dec 16, 2025
     | 54 views

    Ephesus was a large and important city in the Roman Empire. Paul and others preached the Gospel, won people to Christ, and wrote them a letter. Now it was time for another letter, this one coming from Jesus Himself.

    The Seven Churches-Ephesus (Note: this message is based on a sermon I preached at New Hope Baptist Church near Fulton, MO on October 19, 2025 but it is not an exact transcription.)

    What Is The Gospel?

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Mar 22, 2025
     | 343 views

    Each and every Christian should desire to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ to as many as they have opportunity. Knowing we should preach The Gospel, what is The Gospel? Look at a sermon about The Gospel found in scripture.

    Each and every Christian should desire to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ to as many as they have opportunity. Jesus commanded his Apostles first to preach the Gospel to every creature; secondly, each believer should follow that directive, also. (Mark 16:15-16, Matthew 24:14) Knowing we should ...read more

    The Work In Athens Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on May 2, 2017
     | 11,909 views

    Paul works among Gentiles for eighteen months in Corinth and for nearly three years in Ephesus, but no example of his preaching is given. The reason is that it has already been given—in Athens, in the very center of Gentile culture and intellect.

    If you want to get in on God’s secret, look for it in a simple package, then find it in a simple, spiritual message for spiritual people. Submit to God’s Spirit and let Him lead you into ways you can’t even imagine right now.

    Spiritual Climate Change

    Contributed by Maurice Mccarthy on Jul 22, 2013
    based on 8 ratings
     | 26,289 views

    There are two main climates I want to preach on today, the first an atmosphere in our church that is conducive for a move of the Spirit of God, and the second is an atmosphere in our church and our personal lives that is attractive to the lost.

    Spiritual Climate Change The basic premise of global warming is that certain things done over an extended period of time will heat up the earth. Our message today is about improving the spiritual climate in our lives. There are things that we can do that effect our spiritual climate personally, in ...read more
