    What Are You Going To Do? (New Year’s Sermon)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 22, 2022
     | 2,313 views

    Some believe that the Old Testament Book of Psalms is the most helpful book in the Bible.

    Why? Because the Psalms are loaded with information to help us live the Christian life. One of the things we all need help with is how to deal with the differences we have with each other. We all have many differences. Illus: Mayor Giuliani, of New York city, was honored for his leadership ...read more

    As Balaam prepared to launch a major spiritual attack against the Israelites, they had no idea they were in grave danger. Yet God saved them; He worked behind the scenes even when they were not aware of it. God's still at work today!

    BEHIND THE SCENES “Then it came about after these things, the cupbearer and the baker for the king of Egypt offended their lord, the king of Egypt. Pharaoh was furious with his two officials, the chief cupbearer and the chief baker. So he put them in confinement” Genesis 40:1-3. There was a ...read more

    What Is Spirituality? (1 Of 7)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 1, 2022
     | 1,243 views

    One of the best ways you can determine that a person is a SPIRITUAL PERSON is by the way they spend their TIME and MONEY.

    We are fooling ourselves when we think we are SPIRITUAL yet our TIME and MONEY reveals we are like the carnal people of this world who only care about cars, boats, campers, houses and clothes. The way we spend our time tells a great deal about us. Because time is important to us, most of us ...read more

    The Garden Tomb – The Sagacity Of Patience (9/12) Series

    Contributed by Eduardo (Eddie) Fernandes on Oct 12, 2020
     | 2,685 views

    “Game over. Jesus was dead. We lost.” The Disciples stopped believing and gave up waiting. Sagacity is the quality of being discerning, patient, farsighted and wise. Don't lose faith in troubled times. Immediate/Instant are not always part of God’s vocabulary.

    I want to look at a topic that should be a “no-brainer” for Christians. SHOULD CHRISTIANS GAMBLE?

    Gambling has become accepted by many, and has become a widespread problem in our society. Sad to say, you can even find it among some churches. Illus: Did you hear about the man that heard a knock at the door. Opening the door he noticed a boy from his church selling raffle tickets. The boy said ...read more

    God invites us to draw near to Him as we are, offering honest hearts and lives, promising His transforming presence and mercy in return.

    Friend, you made it. Another week of noise, news, and nagging worries, and here you are—hungry for a word from Heaven. Maybe your heart feels thin.
