    Multiply Your Zeal Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 4, 2021
     | 2,998 views

    The overall shape of the Bible’s story is like a U in which events begin in perfection, fall into corruption, and painfully wind their way back to the final defeat of evil and the triumph of good. The crucial turning point is the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

    Psalm 2 Series

    Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Feb 25, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,338 views

    The first two psalms are often considered to be designed as a pair serving as an introduction to the 150-psalm collection. The first psalm describes the difference between the blessed man and the evil man, and Psalm 2 is about triumph over the forces that oppose the faith.

    For Sermon Central researchers: I have posted a series of 15 sermons on the Psalms. In recent personal studies I have found the psalms to be richer and more thought-provoking than I had fully appreciated. I had too often swept swiftly through psalms without slowing down to inquire as thoroughly as ...read more

    Sermon: Trusting God When Everything Falls A Part

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jan 29, 2026
     | 416 views

    David suggests that the righteous must trust in the Lord even if they have to (1) suffer awhile they can do it joyfully, (2) hope cheerfully, (3) wait patiently, (4) pray earnestly, (5) believe confidently, and if they do, they will triumph finally.

    Sermon: Trusting God When Everything Falls A Part Psalms 11:1-7 “In the Lord put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain? For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart. If the ...read more

    The Sin We Excuse

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 16, 2025
     | 156 views

    Favoritism is a sin we rarely name and easily excuse, yet Scripture confronts it directly. Drawing from James 2, this sermon calls believers to let mercy triumph over judgment and to live out a faith that loves without partiality.

    (Mercy Rides Point and Grace Brings Us Home) James 2:1–13 --- Introduction – Singing on the Trail There’s an old cowboy trail song with a toe-tapping refrain: > “Git along, little dogies, git along, git along… For you know Wyoming will be your new home.” Cowboys sang it to keep a restless ...read more

    Calm In Wild Weather – Peace In Life’s Storms (Message December 2023) Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Dec 19, 2023
     | 1,360 views

    I have just been through flooding rains, and in the past, in the eye of the storm (cyclone, hurricane). Peace and calm from God is present in life’s storms in turmoil all around us. In His hand there is comfort when all this world wants to do is to batter the life out of us.

    CALM IN WILD WEATHER – PEACE IN LIFE’S STORMS (Message December 2023) Who controls Nature? Is it some arbitrary force often personified as “Nature”, or is it climate change (if you are desperately seeking an answer), or is it some random series of happenings. It is none of these.

    Turning Hardship To Joy

    Contributed by Paul Fritz on Jun 24, 2004
    based on 54 ratings
     | 5,765 views

    Sometimes God allows things to get difficult so He can produce greater joy in and through and with us. Jesus knew that His Father often used tragedy to cause people to look to heaven for solutions to their problems.

    John 15:11-16 Illustration: A cynic asked an elderly believer who had endured great physical pain for 20 years, "What do you think of your God now?" The godly sufferer replied, "I think of Him more than ever." Sorrow can be the means of bringing us heart-to-heart with God. When repeated strokes ...read more

    Everyone agrees that divorce is one of the worst tragedies plaguing families today. Sadly, many pastors and church leaders have sometimes made things worst. What does the Bible really teach about this difficult issue?

    These days’ people do not talk of holiness any more. We have suddenly become strangers to holiness. It should not be so. Not to talk about holiness and walk in holiness will be the worst devaluation and tragedy that can come to Christianity.

    The Penalty Of Sin Is Death

    Contributed by James Linders on Jun 28, 2015
     | 3,803 views

    The world was created blameless, and SO was heaven. Through man's disobedience to God sin and death entered the world, and Satan led a third of the angels in heaven to rebel against God. The ONLY solution to THIS tragedy was CHRIST dying on the cross.

    Genesis 2:16-17. The LORD God said to man: “You are FREE to eat from ANY tree in the garden, but you must NOT eat from the tree of knowledge, of good and evil, for when you EAT from it, you will CERTAINLY die. You will die BEFORE the day is over.” While Adam and Eve were walking ...read more

    In this world torn by pandemic, tragedy, and violence, we turn back to the beginning, to what God created us to be. Order out of disorder, light out of darkness, all of us made in God's image

    Looking back over the last few weeks, perhaps the best word we can use is chaos. We have seen chaos as a disease struck our nation. We have seen chaos as hospitals have been overwhelmed and more than 100,000 have died. We have seen chaos as businesses closed and people lost their jobs. We have ...read more

    Do you observe that you tend to get better or worse(bitter, angry and anxious) when difficulties come in to your life? Is your life more characterized by triumphs or turmoil and tension? Irritations have a way of bringing a sense of frustration that leads

    Exchange Self-Destructive Tendencies With Spiritually Fruitful Traits (Gal. 5:16-23) Too many people allow themselves to fall into self-destructive practices out of ignorance, neglect or spiritual indiscipline.

    In view of the ’Passion Week’ we all begin at the great account of Jesus entering Jerusalem. This great event would begin a journey that would end at the cross--but the end was just the beginning. Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem proved His triumph

    There are (3) Developments that transpired with Jesus entering Jerusalem. I. The Anticipation for the King Many centuries have passed with nations anticipating a mighty king.
