Exposed To The Truth

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on May 1, 2019

Sound doctrine is essential for strong churches and believers. While false teachers abound, the best defense is a thorough understanding of truth. The Word is our final authority for faith and practice.

Exposed to the Truth 2 John 9-13 The letter John wrote to the elect lady and her children was short and to the point. He was impressed with the testimony of their lives and their commitment to abiding in the truth. It is evident that John desired to encourage them in the faith, seeking to equip ...read more

11 Causes Of Prayerlessness

Contributed by Glynda Lomax on Jul 14, 2018

God cannot answer a prayer we don't pray. Why would we ever stop praying?

I wrote this sermon for the Christmas season when everyone is so busy buying gifts that other priorities fall by the wayside. The Word of God instructs us to pray without ceasing in 1 thes. 5:17, so we are to pray at all times. Prayer is when we bring our petitions to God. He is our loving father ...read more

Jesus Begins His Ministry

Contributed by James Snyder on Mar 18, 2013

The focus of the Holy Spirit is a ministry that accents the Jesus-factor in our daily life.

Ministry is a very common topic among us who are Christians. We talk about it and believe that we are doing ministry for the Lord. Yet, very few people understand the dynamics involved in spiritual ministry. It is not like doing a job out in the world, although we have somehow made it like that. ...read more

What's Going On Around Here?

Contributed by Rev Ken Shedenhelm on May 1, 2013

In the so-called mainline churches, many members cling to the adage, "We've never done it that way before!" As the religious people in Jesus' time discovered, hanging on to the old will blind us to the new thing that God is doing in our midst.

Our lectionary passages this morning concern radical change, perhaps none more radical that Peter's vision in the 11th chapter of Acts. Most of us don't give much thought to what we eat and, if we do, our concern is more with calories than holiness. We don't consider food groups to be "clean" or ...read more

Dealing With Divine Disappointment

Contributed by Mark Opperman on May 6, 2015

I’d like to give a few perspectives that will help us deal with divine disappointment. When we are less than thrilled about how or when God is working (or seemingly not working), what are we to think and do? Let’s take a look.

Dealing with Divine Disappointment Luke 7:18-23 18 Then the disciples of John reported to him concerning all these things. 19 And John, calling two of his disciples to him, sent them to Jesus, saying, "Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?" 20 When the men had come to Him, they ...read more

Nothing Can Stop Jesus Now!

Contributed by Craig Condon on Jun 2, 2015

We who are called to follow in Jesus' footsteps are faced with a challenge. How we respond to it will determine our eternal destiny.

A certain woman came to the pastor of a church out in West Texas. She asked if she could be a part of the Bible Study he was teaching.

Whom Have I Cheated? Series

Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Jul 2, 2013

One thing the church lacks is more people of character and integrity. Character and integrity are used synonymously, but there is a difference between the two. Character develops through individual situations, integrity finalizes codified virtues learned.

WHOM HAVE I CHEATED? THE SIGNIFICANCE OF INTEGRITY 1 SAMUEL 12:1-5 1 Samuel said to all Israel, “I have listened to everything you said to me and have set a king over you. 2 Now you have a king as your leader.

The End Of All Things Is Really At Hand

Contributed by James Snyder on Dec 31, 2012

As Christians, we need to be careful that we do not fall into the area of doctrinal contempt because of the false prophets.

This has been an interesting year especially in light of all the doomsday prophecies. People are willing to believe anything regardless of the evidence to the contrary. Anywhere from preachers to politicians to historians, people have an itch to wax prophetic. Remember the preacher who predicted ...read more
