    Remembering God’s past faithfulness fuels our present hope and prayer, empowering us to trust Him and expect His power in today’s challenges.

    Some nights feel noisier than others. The worries keep whispering, the clock keeps ticking, and our hearts keep wondering if morning will ever come. Have you been there? You grab your phone, scroll a few old photos, and a smile slips in where sighs used to sit. Memory does that. Memory can be a ...read more

    The Good Old Days? Oh Please!

    Contributed by Pat Cook on Aug 12, 2005
    based on 27 ratings
     | 12,256 views

    Slightly sarcastic view of "the good old days". Like the scripture, this reminds people to live in the present, and not long for so-called better days of the past.

    Ecclesiastes 7:10 – The Good Old Days? Oh Please! Tonight, instead of looking at a major topic in Ecclesiastes, I am going to look at one verse. It’s a verse that speaks to all of us, no matter how old we are. 7:10. This verse is funny because it so much speaks to who we are, and what we ...read more

    In Phil. 3:12-16, Paul offers three principles to follow as we enter the new year: Forget your Past, Focus your Priorities, and Function in the Present.

    New Year’s Resolutions Scott R. Bayles, preacher There is an old story about a happy little boy who went out into the field wearing a baseball cap. In one hand he carried a baseball, and in the other his trusty bat. His face bore a look of tremendous confidence. Cocking his bat, he tossed the ball ...read more

    Too many people today feel that their life is headed toward a crash. They life feels like two trains headed directly toward each other and there is really nothing they can do to stop it from happening. For them, a crash seems inevitable.

    A young man, who had worked for years on the railroad, wanted a job as a signalman for the railroad. For his interview, he was told to meet the inspector at the signal box. The inspector asked him, "What would you do if you realized that two trains were heading toward each other on the same ...read more

    Sermon # 4 - Chosen To Be Royalty Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jul 17, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,537 views

    God has chosen us and called us to be a Royal Priesthood, but often we don’t realize our position in Christ. Abraham’s life will encourage us to realize how God can fulfill His great plans in the lives of those whom God has called and chosen.

    We read in 1 Peter 2:9, However, you are chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, people who belong to God. You were chosen to tell about the excellent qualities of God, who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. (GW) In the verses preceding the above mentioned verse, Peter ...read more

    A look at four of the great things we can anticipate being in our future.

    Jesus reveals a parable of the Ten Virgins - each having their own lamp, but only five had oil in their lamps. When the call sounded to meet the Bridegroom, only five were ready. We must have oil in our lamps when the call is sounded to meet the Lord.

    Behold, the Bridegroom Cometh Matthew 25: 1-13 We have read another of Jesus’ parables. Parables were used of our Lord to communicate a heavenly truth through an earthly illustration. This parable was given to the people of Israel, but there is application and instruction for each of us. In ...read more
