    Can you imagine Paul sitting on the cold floor of a prison cell and writing a letter stating this following thought as his theme: “What I like about my job as to being a Christian is…”

    Title: “What I like about my Job is…” Introduction: Let me challenge you to read the entire fourth chapter of 2 Timothy. Paul is writing from a prison cell. He has made his prison cell his personal office. Bring the Books and parchments! He mentions all of the positives and the negatives things ...read more

    From a prison cell in the city of Rome, one of the Lord’s greatest servants shares with us how to experience Joy in the Christian life. In this epistle Paul mentions Joy, Gladness & Rejoicing 19 times.

    Philippians 1 “Paul and Timotheus, the servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus which are at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons: 2 Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ. 3 I thank my God upon every remembrance of you, 4 Always in ...read more

    Paul had set the example of joyfulness in difficult times. In prison, after beatings, Paul and Silas had sung praises. Now, in the difficult times of their life, Paul gives advice for believers in difficult times.

    In Times Like These: A Message of Encouragement Philippians 4:1-8 Calvary Baptist Church October 19, 2008 INTRODUCTION • The church at Philippi had fallen on difficult times.

    Of Whom The World Was Not Worthy Series

     | 8,799 views

    The Bible has always been honest with us about the potential dangers of discipleship. It speaks of the real possibilities of abuse, prison and even death. Is there ever a time when it's NOT worth it to be a Christian?

    CHILDREN’S SERMON – Shadrach, Meshach, & Abednego OPEN: I read an interesting article this week in Christianity Today. The title was “Was It Worth It?” and it tried to address the tragedy that’s going on now in Afghanistan. Their opening comment was this: “(Christianity Today) surveyed 15 ...read more

    Be Anxious For Nothing

     | 6,150 views

    Paul was writing from within prison walls; however, he knew the secret to remaining calm in the midst of difficult life circumstances, and even imprisonment. This message covers four principles to help in overcoming anxiety.

    This morning we are going to look at the Bible’s prescription for overcoming a terrible illness called anxiety. “Anxiety,” is defined as a “concern . . . respecting some event, future or uncertain, which disturbs the mind, and keeps it in a state of painful uneasiness.”(1) Anxiety is much like a ...read more

    Detained, But Not Defeated Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Apr 9, 2017
    based on 3 ratings
     | 20,537 views

    With Peter in prison, the church prayed continually for his release. When God answered their prayers, they lacked faith to believe. We can overcome in Christ, but we must possess faith to believe the Lord will provide.

    Detained but not Defeated Acts 12: 1-16 Our text deals with an intense time for the early church. God was clearly at work, and the church was growing. Thousands had been saved by the grace of God and the church’s influence was spreading. Such growth created much concern for the religious ...read more

    God enable us to love all people in the same way He loves us.

    Last week (Romans 5:6-8) we talked about God’s amazing love for all people. For example, if he could love and forgive someone like Jeffrey Dahlmer, the Milwaukee Monster after all of the hideous things he had done, he can love and forgive anyone. The point of God’s amazing love is that he loves us ...read more

    God is not interested in us visiting places we cannot inhabit or possess. This timely message examines the level of living that God wants for us. God’s goal is more than repentance and reival.

    God’s Goal Text: Acts 3:19-21; Joel 2:12-13, 16-17, 19-20, 22-26, 28-29, 32 “Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord, 20and that he may send the Christ, who has been appointed for you—even Jesus. 21He must remain in heaven ...read more

    We hear a lot of these television preachers give the impression that God comes down at least twice a day and visits and talks to them in an audible voice about the things He wants them to do.

    I find it hard to believe what many of these television preachers preach and teach most of the time. Much of it is UNSCRIPTURAL AND RIDICULOUS! They make the Lord’s work look bad! When one comes up with a new idea for making more money, the others seem to follow. I am sure there must be some good ...read more
