    A Labor Day message about being happy/joyful in all you do.

    Getting Gruntled!! September 4, 2016 Matthew 20:1-16 In Matthew 20 Jesus told a parable about workers in a vineyard. This parable teaches us some principles about the kingdom of God, and it also teaches us something about the kind of attitude we should have at work. The key players in this ...read more

    God sees behind our facade and does what He knows is right.

    Patron saint of the disgruntled Jonah 4 Here we have a prophet but he’s more than just a prophet. Jonah has the gift of an evangelist. He preaches and people get right with God. We don’t know too much about his ministry prior to Ninevah and we know nothing about what ...read more

    Paul explains what it means to have wisdom in Christ. 1- We expose the darkness 2- We use time wisely 3- We respond to the Spirit

    INTRO.- Wisdom. Who doesn’t need it? ILL.- A preacher said: When I was a young minister, a funeral director asked me to hold a grave side service for a homeless man with no family or friends. The funeral was to be at a cemetery way out in the country. This was a new cemetery and this man ...read more

    The Lost Son Series

    Contributed by Billy Kryger on Mar 7, 2003
    based on 89 ratings
     | 10,873 views

    Third message in the series "God’s Lost and Found from Luke 15. This message deals with the prodigal son and the fact that when we stray awy from God we don’t cease being His child. He welcomes us home with open arms.

    We started, several weeks ago, a series of messages on God’s Lost and Found from Luke chapter 15. We came to realize that this is not three separate parables, but rather one parable with three different parts, or examples that each illustrates the love of the Lord Jesus for those that are ...read more

    Powerful Presence- God The Spirit Series

    Contributed by Tim Smith on Oct 19, 2009
     | 7,081 views

    This sermon looks at the third part of the Trinity which is often the most overlooked and least understood part, the Holy Spirit. Most of us when we focus on God do so through either through God, the Father or Jesus. Very few of us focus on the Holy Spiri

    Powerful Presence- God the Spirit John 14:15-26 For the past three weeks, we’ve been looking at the doctrine of the Trinity, one the beliefs which makes Christianity unique from every other religion in the world. First, we looked at the unity of the Trinity. There is one God consisting of three ...read more

    Welcomed By Brethren Series

     | 6,289 views

    Paul’s third missionary journey was complete, having begun after a visit to “the church” in the holy city (18:22) and now ending there. His Greek mission was also complete. He would not return. Luke had prepared his readers well for this reality.

    Wednesday, January 20, 2016 By: Tom Lowe Lesson: IV.E.1: Welcomed by Brethren (Acts 21:15-26) ACTS 21:15-26 (KJV) 15 And after those days we took up our carriages, and went up to ...read more

    The Six Elements Of The Spirit-Filled Life Series

    Contributed by Chuck Gohn on Jun 21, 2022
     | 1,839 views

    This sermon is an introduction to a 6 Part Series providing a brief overview of each element: First, Jesus was God attentive. Second, he was compassion oriented. Third, he was sacramentally minded. Fourth, he was word centered. Fifth, he was spirit empowered. And Sixth, he was sin resistant.

    Some of you know that last week I graduated with my doctorate. Thank you very much for the cards. But you may not know that I had to learn about the periodic table of the elements. In fact, I had to memorize the entire table. I don’t want that information to go to waste, so I thought I would ...read more

    Good Grief

    Contributed by Brady Boyd on May 26, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,217 views

    Most people aren’t good at expressing grief. Yet two-thirds of the Psalms are laments – grieving complaints against God. The Hebrew writers knew that the path of praise often went through the valley of mourning. So what happens when we grieve and mourn properly?

    Good Grief May 30, 2021 John 11:32-35 NIV “When Mary reached the place where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet and said, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died." 33 When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, he was ...read more

    Parables Of The Kingdom – The First - The Sower Or Rather The Soil – Part 4 Of 5 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 1, 2025
     | 184 views

    We are studying the third soil in the Parable of the Sower and now consider the reasons why the good seed gets choked by thorns. How many of us know someone who walked as a strong Christian but just departed the faith? It is a complex matter and we try to see why that happens.

    PARABLES OF THE KINGDOM – THE FIRST - THE SOWER OR RATHER THE SOIL – Part 4 of 5 In the last message we did the seed that fell on the rocky soil, and we also did some of the seed that was choked by thorns. We will finish that choked seed this time. Let us revise the relevant verses from last ...read more

    Will There Be Degrees Of Rewards? Series

    based on 3 ratings
     | 7,893 views

    Will I be rewarded for what I do for the cause of Christ? It is a question many Christians ask, and perhaps many more hold unconsciously in their mind.

    “For the kingdom of heaven is like a master of a house who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard. After agreeing with the laborers for a denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard. And going out about the third hour he saw others standing idle in the marketplace, and ...read more

    God doesn’t merely want to meet our expectations, God wants to raise our standards.

    The Gold Standard I want to apologize if what I’m about to share is repetitious. I think my opening illustration was shared with me by our friend and Chairman of Deacons, Robert Johnson, a few months ago, but I’m not positive. Anyway, in 1900, a company called the Detroit Automobile Company ...read more

    Relying On The Work Of The Spirit

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 5, 2022
     | 2,117 views

    When we bear witness to the saving power of Christ, we must rely on the Spirit to empower our efforts.

    Jesus had told them to wait—His first disciples, I mean. He had given them important work to do—the most important work of all, actually—but He had told them not to attempt it just yet. No. They were to wait. “Don’t give,” He said, “until you have received. Nothing can be done by you until ...read more

    The Envy Trap Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Nov 10, 2002
    based on 146 ratings
     | 20,122 views

    God tells us that godliness with contentment is great gain. But there is one trait that gnaws at the heart of many Christians that can deprive them of that contentedness. What is it, and how can we defend against it?

    TEXT: I Timothy 6:3-10 TITLE: The Envy Trap OPEN: How many of you have heard of the tooth fairy? (The question met with a little laughter as everyone raised their hands). I read a story not so long ago about a woman whose 2nd grader had collected a fair amount of money from the "tooth fairy." ...read more

    Love Does Not Envy!

    Contributed by Melvin Newland on Sep 10, 2018
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,649 views

    An attitude of envy can be a destructive force in any life. Envy is a serious danger, for it can make us unclean & unspiritual & rob us of our salvation. It is not a desirable trait to have in our lives.

    MELVIN NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK TEXT: 1 Corinthians 13:4; 1 Timothy 6:6-10 Last Sunday, in my sermon "Love Is Kind" I said, "The Apostle Paul comes close to being the composer of a great love song in ...read more
