Live In Harmony With One Another Series

Contributed by Dan Raymond on Mar 7, 2016

Beautiful harmony is not easy in music. Only the right combinations of notes are pleasing to the ear. The wrong combination is discordant noise. Beautiful harmony is not easy in the church either, and yet we are called to live in harmony with one another.

Live in Harmony with One Another Romans 12:16 “Live in harmony with one another.” There are certain sounds in music, sounds necessary to make all but the most basic music, these sounds cannot be made by playing any single note. They can only be made when multiple notes or chords are ...read more

A Mother’s Job

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 18, 2022

The path of least resistance is a path that many choose throughout life, because it requires so little of them

It is a path that most have taken. However, life teaches us in many ways that the great things of life cannot be accomplished by taking the path of least resistance.

A Change Of Heart Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 12, 2021

Have you ever been so desperate that you’ve said, “God, I need a miracle!”? Miracles are supernatural events that offer hope and healing to people in need.

Few things evoked unmitigated fear and near national panic as the image, you see in front of you. Known by some as hemorrhagic fever, this deadly disease is better known as Ebola. All eyes were on Texas in the Fall of last year (2014) when a patient, Thomas Eric Duncan, carried the lethal virus ...read more

Stand Your Ground! Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Jun 21, 2021

Message teaches the practical application of the metaphor of armor in Eph. 6:10-17. Christians are in a spiritual battle simply because they are Christians. In an increasingly antichristian culture this teaching becomes even more essential.

The title of this message is: Stand Your Ground! There are times and season when the devil’s assaults against believers are more intense than at other times. Scripture not only tells us to be prepared for such times, but also tells us how to be prepared. That’s our subject today. I am an optimist. ...read more

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Nov 26, 2018

You've heard the phrase, "God is good all the time and all the time God is good". But how do we define 'good'?

THAT'S GOOD! (part one) We've heard the saying, "God is good all the time and all the time God is good." What is good? The word can mean many things. It can refer to something that's of high-quality (that's good stuff). It can refer to someone who's virtuous or moral (he's a good person). It can ...read more

Who Am I? Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on May 24, 2022

Are we just some accident? Some random lump of cells? Or are we fearfully and wonderfully made by a Divine, Loving Creator?

There is a question that is being hotly debated right now that’s pretty much dominating the news and threatening to perhaps tear our country apart and the debate is scary and uncomfortable but maybe it’s a good thing because we’re wrestling with an important question … perhaps the most important ...read more

A World Gone Wrong Series

Contributed by C. Philip Green on Apr 20, 2023

In a world gone wrong, fear God and Praise Him even in the fire, and so find joy in life even when life is unpredictable, unfair, and unjust.

Upon accepting an award, the late Jack Benny once remarked, “I really don't deserve this. But I have arthritis, and I don't deserve that either” (Haddon Robinson, www.PreachingToday.com). People often don’t get what they deserve. So how do you live in such a world? How do you live in a ...read more

To Be Or Not To Be Series

Contributed by Denn Guptill on May 24, 2025

Paul tells the Colossians they were dead. But what did he mean by dead? And how do we know if we are spiritually dead?

The quality of mercy is not strain'd. It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven Upon the place beneath. It is twice blest: It blesseth him that gives, and him that takes. That, of course, was from the Merchant of Venice, which I studied in grade 11. Do they still teach Shakespear in High ...read more

The Politics Of Jesus

Contributed by Tj Long Jr on Oct 30, 2023

Christians think they align with Jesus' views. Some are surprised, others offended. Jesus’ campaign sounds like a liberal utopia because we’re not ready to let go of hate, we’re not ready to trust in God and not in the law. We have to transcend hate and show the mercy we’ve been shown by God.

There are only two shows that I’ve ever watched the entire series. One of which I still own on DVD and have watched the entire series 3 times. If there was any show that I’d love to see still running today it would be this one. I’d love to see how it would interpret and respond to the issues of our ...read more

The Audacious Love Of Emmanuel

Contributed by Jessie Manuel on Dec 12, 2025

Church, we're in the season of Advent, and this week we're talking about love. But we're not talking about the kind of love that shows up when it's convenient. We're not talking about the love that sends a greeting card or leaves a casserole on the porch.

Opening Prayer Gracious and loving God, we come before you in this season of waiting and wonder. Open our hearts to receive your Word today. Quiet the noise around us and within us. Let your Holy Spirit move among us now, that we might hear not just with our ears, but with our souls. Speak, Lord, ...read more
