"Friday Tragedy? Easter Triumph!”

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Mar 31, 2021

If the body of Jesus had decayed into dust within the borrowed tomb, we would not be singing the songs of Easter. They thought It was a tragic end to the “One” who had raised the dead. Tears told the sadness in their hearts. Resurrection shatters the grip of fear.

It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Dec 18, 2017

This Christmas carol lists many things that make it the most wonderful time of the year. And while kids jingle-belling and parties and caroling are all fun and wonderful, the song fails to mention the one thing that truly makes Christmas wonderful-Jesus.

IT'S THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR The title of the sermon is taken from the popular Christmas song of the same name. The songwriter declares it's the most wonderful time of the year and then goes on to say why. The kids jingle-belling along with holiday greetings and gay happy meetings ...read more

The Cleft Of The Rock

Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Sep 30, 2017

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

Posture For Worship

Contributed by Samuel M on Jul 10, 2023

"Oh How He Loves You And Me!”

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Sep 30, 2021

Today I am preaching from a song that many of us like to hear. There is one part of the lyric that I really like, it goes like this, “O HOW HE LOVES ME. OH HOW HE LOVE YOU!”

It is an awesome thought to think that the God of this vast universe loves us with a jealous love. Oh How He Loves us! Illus: Many of us can remember when we were in grammar school and we started loving the opposite sex for the first time. Before we men grew into that area of our life if the ...read more

Are The Father, Son, And Holy Spirit The Same Essence?

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on May 25, 2023

In the church, a lot of confusing language is used to try and explain or define things.

Today we will look at the Trinity, often defined as "one in ‘essence,’ three in person." What does that mean exactly? God is three Persons, and the name 'God' implies one ‘essence.’ If God is "three Persons," how can there be "one" ‘essence’? The meaning of the ...read more
