Just A Little More, God. Series

Contributed by Thomas Bowen on Feb 11, 2011

We always think just a little more money or time or friends would make things better. Very few of us long for a little more God to help us to live better.

Today we are adding one additional view to the series that is inspired by: Isaiah 29:13 The Lord says: "These people come near to me with their mouth and honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. Their worship of me is made up only of rules ...read more

Humility And The Wedding Banquet.

Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Sep 1, 2013

Humility is not what you think, humility is power, strength, energy and life; but to receive it, you must submit yourself to God; you must acknowledge that he is king, and you are subjected to him.

Prayer: Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of our hearts be acceptable to you O Lord. Amen. Introduction: There is a country and western song which I love called “Lord, it is hard to be humble, when you are perfect in ever way”. I think the words are so funny because for me, ...read more

Are Your Words Testifying Against You?

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Sep 24, 2020

One of the things that I believe we sometimes forget is that the words that we speak mean a lot more than what we may think. This message is about the importance of speaking in agreement with God.

Are Your Words Testifying Against You? One of the things that I believe we sometimes forget is that the words that we speak mean a lot more than what we may think. And one of the verses we’re going to look at this morning, and I’ll turn to it. It’s John 6:63. Jesus says, “It is the spirit that ...read more

Have You Any Room Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Dec 1, 2019

There was no room to be found for Mary and Joseph to stay in Bethlehem? Seriously? You'd think someone would have taken pity on a VERY pregnant woman that day, but no one did. Why not?

Several years ago, a church held a Christmas pageant with a group of 4 year-olds. Everything went along pretty well until Mary and Joseph “arrived” at the inn. The 4 year-old Joseph asked: “Do you have any room for us?”. “No,” replied the innkeeper, “the inn is full.” “But it’s so cold outside, ...read more

Above The Law

Contributed by Johnny Carver on Apr 8, 2002

We live in a time when people think they can beat the system of God’s way of doing things. Sin enters their life and then they can’t understand why things start going wrong.

They had come out of the wilderness, crossed the flooded Jordan River on dry ground. They had seen the walls of Jericho fall down after they had walked around them for seven days. ...read more

Contributed by John Hamby on Oct 10, 2011

There are thousands of people who are terrified that they may have committed the unpardonable sin. This is a shame because the mere fact that they desire to repent is evidence that the Holy Spirit is still working in their lives. I think that part of the

Love Does Not Seek Its Own

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Dec 9, 2025

These days, a lot of people are demanding their “rights” and live in such a way as to trample the rights of others. There are those who are always thinking of what life owes them. But there are others who never forget what they owe to life.

Alba 12-7-2025 LOVE DOES NOT SEEK ITS OWN I Corinthians 13:5 I Corinthians 13 continues to describe what love is not. It says in verse five that love, “does not seek its own”. Other translations say that love does not “insist on its own way”, “doesn't think about itself”, or “is not ...read more

They Believed In Spirit-Filled Preaching.

Contributed by Ralph Jenkins on May 28, 2013

I think it’s interesting that not until Peter was filled with the Holy Spirit that he began to preach. No preacher, should ever seek to preach without having been filled with the Holy Spirit.

“They Believed in Spirit-Filled Preaching” Acts 2:14-41 In the last message from Acts we saw that the Apostles and first church believed in the Holy Spirit. They had waited for what the Father had promised, the indwelling and infilling of the Holy Spirit. There was no way they could ...read more

Who Are God's People?

Contributed by Judith Hand on Oct 11, 2014

God's people are forgiven sinners who have accepted Christ's sacrifice for their sins. Repentant people are accepted by God, but those who think they are good enough to enter heaven on their own merit will be cast out.

Who Are God’s People? Exodus 32:1-14 Philippians 4:1-9 Matthew 22:1-14 Our first reading from Exodus is not difficult to understand. The Israelites have gotten impatient waiting for Moses so they ask Aaron to make them gods who will go before them. They had had many highs and lows on ...read more
