    God Appoints His Servants

     | 4,825 views

    God said both Nebuchadnezzar and Cyrus were His "servants." One brought national ruin; the other brought restoration. We need to trust that whoever is leading - king, prime minister, president - that God has placed them for a reason.

    Leading up to the presidential election, we all had a favorite candidate whom we desired to win; someone who would represent our values. We envisioned how he would bring about prosperity and freedom to our nation; but if he lost, we envisioned the end of the world. Anyone of any political party ...read more

    In the OT there were many prophecies that were written down and these prophecies are like promises. They both tell us that something is going to take place. Over 300 prophecies were given to us in the OT concerning the birth, life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

    “All I want for Christmas is a Savior” Micah 5:1-2 and Isaiah 7:14 It is hard to imagine that Christmas is now less than a day away. Technically Christmas will arrive in about 6 hours. It’s now past that time when people ask the question-hey-what do you want for Christmas? I read this week about ...read more

     | 3,241 views

    God placed it upon Paul's heart that the church in Crete needed to grow up to maturity. Titus had demonstrated that he was ready for the responsibility of organizing the churches in Crete; he would lead the people to avoid the Cretan worldview and the legalism of the Jews.

    “Come, follow me.” The words resound with authority that could emanate only from the heart of God. My heart is tenderly touched each time I view a video clip that depicts the early disciple walking away from their known life to live according to a calling God places upon their lives.

    Having No Fear

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 3, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,825 views

    Fear is a part of the human condition; however, our fears would cease if we would place our hope in Jesus Christ, instead of the false securities that we’ve built up through our occupations, activities, or the many masks we wear.

    Our sermon this evening is entitled, “Having No Fear.” I recall how back in the 1990’s there was a popular brand of clothing with the brand name No Fear. I read an Internet article from that same time period, which says the No Fear slogan “has come to symbolize a ‘cutting edge’ lifestyle” and has ...read more

    There are several places in the Bible where God has promised to give us new hearts … hearts for Him alone … but in order for Him to give us new hearts, hearts of flesh, hearts for Him alone, He has to break our hearts of stone.

I have stones at the church and each week the people are asked to pick up a stone and hold it during the service and then place it at the foot of a wooden cross placed at the front of the sanctuary. Each stone has a meaning. On the ...read more

    Many of us are ready and generous to help others. It's common to help our friends or those in high places. But what about the poor or our enemies? The Good Samaritan was someone who helped even those who hated him.

    This evening’s message will examine what is called the “Parable of the Good Samaritan.” So, what is a Good Samaritan? When we hear the term “Good Samaritan,” we might envision someone who, while driving down the road, spots a wrecked car and pulls over and rescues the person trapped in the ...read more
