Setting Our Priorities Straight

Contributed by Esther Collins on Jan 21, 2022

We live in times when it's a challenge to keep our priorities straight. The Bible gives us great examples of those who were able to choose right, and also enjoy the consequences of their godly choices.

Setting our Priorities Straight Take a moment to write down three things that you consider your topmost priorities in your life. Also write down the number of hours you spend on any given day on these activities that are mentioned – time spent on eating, sleeping, studying, working, with family, ...read more

To Judge Or Not To Judge - James 4:11,12

Contributed by Vernon Risner on Jan 23, 2022

Jesus says in Matthew 7:1 that we aren't to judge. Then in John 7:24 Jesus says to "judge correctly". So which is it? Are we to judge or not to judge? Today we look at this topic and it's far-reaching implications on the Christian life.

To Judge or Not to Judge - James 4:11,12 When I was in high school, there was this guy in my class that was on the rough side. He smoked, cussed, had long hair. Later we became good friends but before that – I remember a day a Christian student approached him sharing a judgmental comment. This ...read more

The Realities Of The Christian Life

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 25, 2022

The psalmist expressed what many of us have expressed or thought.

He said, “...Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest.” The Psalmist was not the first, and he certainly was not the last person who wished he had wings as a dove so he could fly away.

Israel’s Greatest General (1of 2)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 1, 2022

In our text we read of Israel’s greatest general. His name is Joshua. In Joshua 23, Joshua had reached the golden years of his life.

Look at verse 1. We read, “...Joshua waxed old and stricken in age.” When we consider Joshua’s age, we need to consider TWO things. (1) Look at the phrase, “...stricken in age.” Today it seems many folks are fighting a battle with old age. Illus: One man in Missouri said, “It is rough ...read more

One Day At A Time

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 8, 2022

We often feel that we can’t be happy until we are in the “perfect place,” or God’s “perfect will.” If we wait around for the perfect moment, then we could miss those truly perfect opportunities. The perfect moment to serve is right now.

I have entitled our message for this morning “One Day at a Time.” What I am going to share has to do with understanding God’s will for our life, and this is a subject matter that concerns each of us as believers.

The Emperor’s New Grove

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 9, 2022

The Disney movie "The Emperor's New Groove" sounds like its straight out of the Bible; a story where a king, along with his evil female advisor, desire a new plot of ground. This sermon addresses the slippery slope of envy and coveting.

In Disney’s thirty-ninth animated film, “The Emperor’s New Groove,” self-proclaimed “King of the World” Kuzco (COOS-coh), who had an evil female advisor named Yzma (EEZ-muh), made plans to demolish an entire village to build a new water park.
