    Are You Religious? (Part Two)

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jan 16, 2017
     | 5,530 views

    In the beginning of James 1:27, James highlights that part of pure religion in the eyes of God is looking after orphans and widows in their distress. Let's take a look at why this would be an indicator of being truly religious.

    ARE YOU RELIGIOUS? (part two) Recap: James 1:26, "If anyone considers himself religious and yet does not keep a tight rein on his tongue, he deceives himself and his religion is worthless." We looked at chapter three and realized why James highlighted the tongue-because it's the hardest to tame. ...read more

    The Pathway Of Adam Vs. The Pathway Of Christ Series

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Oct 14, 2024
     | 520 views

    I was walking in the pathway of Adam, the pathway of rebellion against God. And it was leading toward disaster. Not only that, the entire world system was built around the pathway of Adam. So it naturally drew me in.

    There was a pathway I was on for many years. It was a pathway with many bright lights and beautiful things. So much technology and media, so many songs, and movies and events, giant arenas and commercials and billions of dollars in industry. I walked that path day by day, it was at times ...read more

    The Songs Of Ascent – Part 11 – Psalm 129 – Israel Is The Most Persecuted Nation In History Yet The Lord Is Righteous – Part One Of Three Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 4, 2023
     | 1,426 views

    This Psalm of Ascent has its focus on Israel and the constant persecution it endured. We look at the role churches played in this persecution (and Martin Luther). History must NOT be eradicated but we need to learn from it.

    THE SONGS OF ASCENT – PART 11 – PSALM 129 – ISRAEL IS THE MOST PERSECUTED NATION IN HISTORY YET THE LORD IS RIGHTEOUS – PART ONE OF THREE [A]. THE INTRODUCTION The next Psalm in the Songs of Ascent is not an easy one on which to deliver a message as it is more of a bible study Psalm. Also it ...read more

    Balaam And His Unforgettable Ride! Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Mar 6, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 459 views

    While on his way to Balak, king of Moab, Balaam experienced two things that he probably never forgot! He heard a message from the Angel of the LORD--and from another, unexpected source!

    (Based on a message preached Sunday evening, March 2, 2025 at New Hope Baptist Church near Fulton, MO; this is not an exact transcription.) Introduction: The story of Balaam and his donkey (I choose to use the word “donkey” or “beast” simply to avoid being accused of using vulgar terms) is one of ...read more

    We keep thinking that God only loves good people, but God loves sinners. He pursues them like he asked Hosea to pursue Gomer. With a painfilled heart, God goes looking for them, He loves the whole world.

    Sermon – Advent continues -The Inescapable Love of God Scripture: Hosea 11:1-12 “When Israel was a child, I loved him, and I called my son out of Egypt.

    If our love the great enoough, then there will be a willingness to sacrifice the very best we have.

    Introduction: Unbelievers have always had a hard time figuring out the lifestyle of Christ’s disciples. When you think about it, you can understand their difficulty. They are guided by a life philosophy that promotes selfishness (the attitude that says, “You’ve gotta look out for ‘Number One’”), ...read more

     | 42,152 views

    We should be willing to take a back seat so that God will lift us up.

    Introduction: It’s only human nature for us to want to sit in the best seat in the house. At sporting events it’s the skybox seat, or the seat on the 50-yard line or the seat directly behind home plate, or a ringside seat at a boxing match. Those are the places that have the best view and carry ...read more

    Jesus: How To Be A Follower In Times Of Despair Series

     | 6,027 views

    Fourth in the series "Meet the Cast." As you study Jesus’ life you realize that even though He did not lay aside his deity, He did humble himself as a man, to serve all humanity. So Jesus understands what we are facing in our lives.

    I love the way “The Passion of The Christ” movie begins, with the reminder that 400 years before Jesus was born his sacrifice was foretold in a vivid way. Isaiah 53:5 (LB) But he was wounded and bruised for our sins. He was beaten that we might have peace; he was lashed--and we were healed! ...read more
