  • Overcoming Prejudice With Love

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Aug 27, 2017
     | 10,944 views

    James dealt with partiality and prejudice in the early church, revealing such attitudes were sinful. The divide in our nation continues to grow, and we must check our attitudes with Scripture. Prejudice will not exist with genuine love.

    Overcoming Prejudice with Love James 2: 1-10 There can be little doubt that our nation is facing the greatest division we have witnessed in decades. The level of turmoil we face today has not been experienced since the 1960’s. While the racial divide seems to be growing at an alarming rate, the ...read more

  • Pattern For Conduct In The Church Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Sep 1, 2017
     | 11,394 views

    When Paul and John Mark had a falling out, the dispute was so sharp that each man took a new assistant and traveled in a different direction; Barnabas took Mark and sailed to Cyprus, and Paul chose Silas and departed for Cilicia.

    Capernaum Lesson: Pattern for Conduct in the Church Matthew 18:15-20 In Matthew 18:15-20, Jesus gave His procedure for dealing with people problems that arise within a church. There is no perfect church, because there are no perfect people. I heard a man say one time, “I wouldn’t belong to any ...read more

  • A Tragic Death Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Sep 6, 2017
     | 10,781 views

    This passage in Mark is one of great tragedy. It has been suggested there were actually two deaths revealed - the death of John the Baptist and the death of Herod's conscience.

    A Tragic Death Mark 6: 14-29 Our text today deals with the horrific and tragic death of John the Baptist. Mark discussed the character of John and the tragic reason for his untimely death. The text actually deals with John’s death in retrospect, sometime after it had happened. John’s untimely ...read more

  • Living With One Foot In Eternity Series

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Sep 24, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 12,509 views

    In Paul's "to live is Christ, to die is gain," we learn a new boldness, a singlemindedness, and a fearless approach to death when God brings it. We can serve God fully with yearning expectation for the life to come.

    Philippians 1:21-26 Living with One Foot in Eternity Over the next four weeks, we’ll look at the tiny New Testament book of Philippians. It’s actually a letter the Apostle Paul wrote around 61 AD to the church in Philippi. Paul wrote from prison in Rome, probably during his first imprisonment, ...read more

  • The Cleft Of The Rock

    Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Sep 30, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 34,517 views

    The analogy of Christ to a rock has its roots in Scripture. There are numerous Old Testament references to the Lord as a "Rock" or "Rock of my salvation." Or as one of our songs, drawn from Psalm 18 says, “The Lord liveth, and blessed be the Rock.”

    This sermon is rather unusual in format. I paused at various times for one of the members to lead a song relevant to the topic under consideration at the moment, sometimes followed by a prayer directly related to the subject. These notes reflect the pauses and the songs that were sung at those ...read more

  • Idol Thoughts

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 23, 2015
     | 3,605 views

    Let us determine to know God and to worship him, not as some idol devised by our own natural preferences, not as many people configure him to be, but as “the book of nature” and the Holy Book together reveal him to be.

    The two passages before us today [Acts 17:22-31 and John 14:15-21] could not be more different from one another. And yet, in some ways, they could not be more similar. In the first one, the one from Acts, we have the Apostle Paul speaking to a group of Gentile skeptics who know nothing of the ...read more

     | 11,147 views

    What can we expect from the Holy Spirit in return for our trust? There are great possibilities in what we can do with help from the Holy Ghost.

    The Gifts of the Holy Spirit: Isaiah 11:1-5 When I began this week’s study, I have to admit that I went, “Yeah! This is week is going to be good!” because this idea has underpinnings that tell us of vast and great discernment about this world that we can tap in to. The ...read more

  • The Baptism Of The Holy Spirit

    Contributed by Craig Condon on May 11, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,226 views

    We are baptized for action. We are baptized to go out into the world and be the hands, voice and presence of Christ. We are baptized for the sake of others and for the sake of the world.

    If the reading we heard from Mark’s Gospel a few minutes ago sounds familiar, it’s because we heard part of the same reading a few weeks ago on the Second Sunday of Advent. On that Sunday, we heard John the Baptist talk about the coming of Jesus and the baptism that he would provide-the ...read more

  • Show Us The Way

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on May 12, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 14,352 views

    In the OT times the leaders would come to the prophet desiring God to show them the way for the nation through his prayers. They were willing to obey God even if it was unpleasant for them so that they would have a good relationship with their Father.

    Opening illustration: A mother was teaching her three-year-old daughter ‘The Lord’s Prayer.’ For several evenings at bedtime, she repeated it after her mother. One night she said she was ready to solo. The mother listened with pride, as she carefully enunciated each word right up ...read more
