  • Overcoming The Bitter Root

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 3, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,467 views

    Bitterness arises from failing to forgive someone who has wronged you. It comes from clinging to bad memories or hurtful experiences from the past and not letting them go. Many times bitterness will give rise to vengeance.

    Our sermon this morning is entitled, “Overcoming the Bitter Root.” Bitterness can be defined as harboring resentment and unforgiveness in our heart toward another person. Bitterness is also defined as, “extreme enmity,” “a grudge,” or “hatred.”(1) The meaning of the word bitter itself is, “sharp ...read more

  • Receiving God’s Grace

    There are many believers who know about grace in their mind, but they haven’t taken it to heart. God loves us for who we are, and we do not have to perform for Him or try to be perfect. All the Lord expects is that we simply be His.

    Jesus said, “If the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed” (Jn 8:36 NASB); but how many Christians are actually living as though they’re free? Some portray the look of a death row inmate awaiting the day of execution! There are believers living with regret over past mistakes and sins, and ...read more

  • John Part 21 & 22 The Subject Of Labor For God, John 4:31-42 Series

    Contributed by Rodney Fry on Mar 6, 2022
     | 1,618 views

    The believer is to labor for God. His life is to be focused upon the will and work of God. His purpose for being on earth is to serve God, to obey and work for Him.

    John Part 21 & 22 The Subject of Labor for God, 4:31–42 (4:31–42) Introduction: the believer is to labor for God. His life is to be focused upon the will and work of God. His purpose for being on earth is to serve God, to obey and work for Him. 1. Physical vs. spiritual concerns ...read more

  • Felix Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 11, 2022
     | 2,821 views

    Felix represents many people intrigued by the gospel but recognizes that surrendering to it means losing status, power, or control of their own lives. Mere exposure to truth does not necessarily enlighten the heart, and Felix is an excellent example of that.

    Felix Felix was Festus' predecessor. He imprisoned Paul but allowed him to speak in his defense. He hoped Paul would offer him a bribe, but he never did. Festus thought Paul was delusional, but he did not think that was cause for putting him to death or locking him up, so he let him ...read more

  • Acts Of The Apostles (20 Of 39)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 14, 2022
     | 1,574 views

    Today we enjoy the freedom we have in America, and think very little about the men and women who bought and paid for it!

    Illus: It is easy for me to understand why some of the old soldiers who faced death itself, some even lost legs, eyes, arms, etc., become angry when they see people who have done nothing to win, or keep, their freedom, wanting to burn the symbol of that freedom, the flag. Well, that is not the ...read more

  • How Is Your Hearing?

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 15, 2022
     | 1,318 views

    I guess one of the biggest frustrations that parents have, is when they talk to their children and they either don't hear, or choose not to hear what the parents have to say.

    Illus: One woman’s three year old daughter, Beverly, was playing with her toys. Her mother, who was folding laundry across the room, noticed Beverly's shirt was dirty and needed to be changed. After calling two times with no response, her mother gave her the full three name call: "Beverly ...read more

  • The Life Of Excuses

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 16, 2022
     | 1,538 views

    In all areas of our life, we can not help but notice that some folks are better at doing some things than others are.

    For example, this is certainly true, when it comes to: • Sports • Academics • Cooking • Building • Teaching • Saving money Sad to say, but this is also true when it comes to lying. Some are much better at telling lies than others are. Some people lie so much, that you know they are lying if their ...read more

  • The Great Depression

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 16, 2022
     | 2,047 views

    WHY IS THERE SO MUCH DEPRESSION?

    It could be because… Illus: A teacher said to her students, "Boys and girls, there is a wonderful example in the life of the ant. Every day the ant goes to work and works hard all day. And at the close of the day, what happens?" Little Johnny said, "SOMEONE STEPS ON ...read more

  • Managing Money God's Way: Saving Series

    Contributed by Scott Bayles on Mar 19, 2022
     | 5,778 views

    What does the Bible have to say about saving money? Surprizingly, much! Using the tale of Joseph as the backdrop, we discover that saving money God's way is practical, planned, and profitable.

    Managing Money God’s Way: Saving Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 10/2/16 Last Sunday I began a short three-part series about Managing Money God’s Way. Like I said last week, the number one key when it comes to managing your money is acknowledging that it’s not your money—it’s ...read more

  • Jacob-His "Mizpah” Moment Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Mar 19, 2022
     | 4,074 views

    Ever seen a "Mizpah" necklace? It may not mean what you think it does!

    Introduction: Have you seen anyone wearing a “Mizpah” necklace recently? These items come and go in popularity and I frankly haven’t seen any of these in quite a while. But some time ago, these items were popular. They came as a pair of necklaces, and on each necklace there was a piece of a coin or ...read more

  • Sunday Morning Religion

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 19, 2022
     | 3,761 views

    You can ride by most churches and they have a church sign outside telling the public what time their church services start.

    But I have a problem with some churches posting on their church signs they worship God between 11 to 12 . According to the Word of God this is somewhat misleading! HOW IS IT MISLEADING? It implies we worship the Lord one hour a week and this is not what the Bible teaches we christians should be ...read more

  • The Mouth And The Heart

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Mar 22, 2022
     | 2,989 views

    If God were to ask, “Why should I let you into heaven?” what would your answer be? This is at least one place in scripture that you can go for an answer. There are others that are just as important. But today lets examine what is involved with the mouth and the heart.

    Alba 3-20-2022 THE MOUTH AND THE HEART Romans 10:1-13 Bob Feller, pitcher for the Cleveland Indians and inducted in the baseball hall of fame in 1962, began his major league journey in 1936, at age 17, fresh off his family’s farm in Van Meter, Iowa. It was during his rookie season that Feller ...read more

  • The Armor Of God 8 Of 8

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022
     | 1,191 views

    Many times when it comes to preaching on the armor of God, some preachers will stop with verse 17, but that is a mistake.

    WHY IS THAT A MISTAKE? Because when you talk about putting on the whole armor of God, you need to include the weapon of PRAYER in verse 18. In our study of the armor of God we have seen that we must ... • TAKE THE GIRDLE OF TRUTH • TAKE THE BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS • PUT ON THE SHOES OF THE ...read more

  • Consider Your Ways

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 25, 2022
     | 2,812 views

    I would like us to focus in on verse 7. We read, "Thus saith the lord of hosts; CONSIDER YOUR WAYS."

    The prophet Haggai had a message from God that he was to give unto the people of God. Notice, he wanted them to know how important this message was by introducing the message by saying, “Thus saith the Lord of hosts…” before he gave the message. In other words, he wanted them to know what he was ...read more
