     | 4,005 views

    Encouragement for those times when, like John the Baptist, we have become frustrated and disappointed when God didn't work in the way we hoped or prayed about.

    BELOVED PASTOR, D. L. MOODY, ONCE REMARKED THAT, “THE BEST WAY TO SHOW THAT A STICK IS CROOKED IS NOT TO ARGUE ABOUT IT OR TO SPEND TIME DENOUNCING IT, BUT TO LAY A STRAIGHT STICK ALONGSIDE IT.” IT IS HUMAN NATURE TO QUESTION AND TO BE SKEPTICAL OF FACTS, FIGURES OR ANY TYPE OF ...read more

    The third sermon of a post-Easter series on Love

    (Slide 1) Impatience… What comes to mind when you read that word? Or you hear it? Or you see it in action? Or personally experience it? The late W.H. Auden wrote, “Because of impatience we were driven out of Paradise, because of impatience we cannot return.” I recently read the story of an ...read more

    The call to the ministry requires that the minister respects the commission and instructions of the One who has called him and not allow himself the luxury of picking and choosing what he wants to do and where he wants to do it or what he does not want to

    Jonah is recognized as a prophet of God. Jonah already has a definite ministry. 2Kings 14:25 He restored the coast of Israel from the entering of Hamath unto the sea of the plain, according to the word of the LORD God of Israel, which he spake by the hand of his servant Jonah, the son of Amittai, ...read more

    I want to talk a few minutes about making decisions that can leave a legacy like many others have before us. Hebrews says that many were recorded just for our examples of how God can bring anyone to His greatness for their life.

    “Dare To Be A Daniel” Daniel 6:3-4 NLT All through life we hear stories & meet people who have had a life that started or ran into some impossible odds. If you are like me, I love hearing about those stories where all the odds were against them, but they rose to an amazing ...read more

    Was The Early Church The "Golden Age"? Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Aug 31, 2018
     | 4,574 views

    Christians today tend to romanticize the early church as a Golden Age when passages like this one present a picture of a church with plenty of struggles. What does that mean for how we should view the church today?

    - Read 2 Corinthians 1:12-17 and 2:1-10. An Early Church Story: - What we are looking at today is just one story from the early church. 1. There was serious sin in the church. - 2 Corinthians 2:6; 1 Corinthians 5:1-13. - We know this from 1 Corinthians 5 and Paul’s extensive instructions to ...read more

    Jesus And Giving Series

    Contributed by K. Edward Skidmore on Nov 11, 2020
     | 2,880 views

    Today we will turn to examine what Jesus had to say about giving. And we will ask what giving looked like to Jesus. The passage in Luke 14:15-33 is considered one of the "Hard Sayings of Jesus". And indeed, it takes a bit of explanation to make sense of it.

    Jesus and Giving Text: Luke 14:15-33 Luke 14:25-33 (NIV) 25 Large crowds were traveling with Jesus, and turning to them he said: 26 "If anyone comes to me and does not hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters--yes, even his own life--he cannot be my ...read more
