Happy Birthday Herod!

Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 14, 2016

A young mother complained to her friend about the difficulties of child rearing, especially the lack of peace and constant pestering by her small children. 2.

Contributed by Lori Broschat on Feb 29, 2016

The more excellent way

LOVE IS OF GOD Jonathan Swift, author of Gulliver’s Travels, once said, “We have just enough religion to make us hate, but not enough to make us love one another.” Why is love so terribly difficult for us sometimes? Aren’t we followers of a God who is Himself love? Surely ...read more

The Wrath Of A Loving God Series

Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 12, 2013

Many people do not think of God in the way that He reveals Himself, as a God who is not only loving, but also angry at sin. He hates the sinner and the sin.

The topic I would like to deal with this afternoon is one that is rarely preached on, and this is very surprising because this aspect of God’s character is mentioned hundreds of times in both the Old and New Testaments. This subject is so important to study so we can have a correct ...read more

God Does Not Change Series

Contributed by Doug Fannon on Jun 14, 2021

The God of creation is the same God we have today. All Scripture references are from the NASB.

It is easy to say in the Sunday School environment that God is unchanging – the 50 cent theological word for that is “immutability.” But the fact that we live in an ever changing world, where quite literally everything is changing around us, whether it be knowledge, the culture, our attitudes, our ...read more

God uses many different methods to instruct His people on the earthly pilgrimage. Many of God’s instruction are clear and to the point, other are hidden in parables, Proverbs, and stories. I am fascinated when I discover how God speaks through stories like those found in the book of Esther. As you ...read more

The Lowly King Of Kings Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jul 17, 2021

When people came looking for the Messiah they expected to see “a reed shaken in the wind,” or a wealthy and mighty king. Instead of finding a wealthy king, they found the Christ who was meek and humble; born in a place of low esteem.

Our message for today is a reflection on the lowly and humble estate of our King of Kings. To begin this morning, turn in your Bibles to Isaiah chapter 9, and we will look at verses 1-2, and 6-7. What I am about to read are the words of the prophet Isaiah concerning the entrance of our Savior ...read more
