Unusual Kindness

Contributed by Bala Samson on Feb 10, 2014

When ‘kindness’ as such is a rare commodity in this world, we never get to see or hear of unusual kindness !

UNUSUAL KINDNESS! Acts 28:2”The native people showed us unusual kindness, for they kindled a fire and welcomed us all, because it had begun to rain and was cold.” When ‘kindness’ as such is a rare commodity in this world, we never get to see or hear of unusual kindness ! ...read more

"how Long O Lord?"

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 25, 2022

Watching television can be entertaining, but at the same time it can be very disconcerting to see what they do on a television program.

Illus: For example, they will have John Wayne on his horse, ride into a town that is filled with all kinds of major problems, and in a couple of hours he will clean that town up and make it a safe and decent place to live. The reason it is upsetting to watch such movies is because we find ...read more

Provoking Thoughts From 1 John (12 Of 16)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 10, 2022

We see many differences in God’s church today when we compare it to the New Testament church.

For example, I am sure that if the apostle Paul could come back today and see the excellent buildings we worship in, he would marvel over them and see them as a big improvement compared to what they had worshipped in. But, as big a contrast as that might be, there is a greater difference he would ...read more

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 19, 2022

As we take a close look at this text, we see a picture of the Lord and the twelve disciples gathered for their Passover supper.

The disciples had the question of who was the greatest among them on their minds, but Jesus had something entirely different on His mind. He was thinking of the one that would BETRAY HIM! One of the most painful experiences in life is to be betrayed by someone we love. • We all know the ...read more

. A Living Authority Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 23, 2021

It is Paul's goal to see that Christians put Jesus where He belongs, and that is in the place of supreme authority.

A Christian school teacher offered a dollar to the one who could give her the name of the most famous man in history. She wanted them to say Jesus, of course. They all began to shout out names like Washington, Lincoln, Edison, and Columbus, and finally a little Jewish boy said Jesus. When he came ...read more

The Attributes Of Optimism Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 23, 2021

This letter to the Galatians gives us a beautiful opportunity to see how a great optimist like Paul reacts to negatives.

Bob Harrington tells of how he was standing on the street preaching when an angry bartender took a mug of beer and poured it on his head. He said to the bartender, "Come here." When he came over he said to him, "I want to thank you for that." The bartender said, "You want ...read more

David And Saul Series

Contributed by Roshelle Brenneise on Nov 18, 2022

In this story we see the unmistakable contrast between Saul's choices and David's choices.

November 19, 2022 After David defeated Goliath, Saul did not allow David to return home – because David did not swear loyalty to him. Even so, there’s no doubt that Saul felt some gratitude toward David. After all, David was Saul’s favorite musician and he had taken care of the “Goliath ...read more

The saddest testimony of any church is that they have members in Hell. Why are there? We will dive into the subject and see why?

This is our church’s 13th anniversary. 13 years ago, this week, a hand full of people met under God’s leadership for the purpose of founding a New Testament church. A bible preaching, bible believing, and the main reason this church is here today can be summed up in the simplest words…. Heaven…. ...read more
