    As people run headlong into a world going nowhere, escaping reality in their hedonistic lifestyles, are we ashamed of Jesus and His words? Are we ashamed of suffering as Christians? Let’s look at Jesus’ countercultural instructions in Mark 8:31-38.

    This lesson shows that Jesus has emotions just as we do, He cried real tears, He bleed real blood, and sweat real sweat.

    Jesus Wept John 11:35 This is the shortest passage in the bible, but don’t get your hopes up, because it’s not the shortest lesson in the bible. In fact the more I studied this scripture the more complicated it ...read more

    The cause of the Word of God being shut up in your bones is of man and not God.

    When The Preacher Don’t Want To Be Bothered Jeremiah 20:7 O LORD, thou hast deceived me, and I was deceived: thou art stronger than I, and hast prevailed: I am in derision daily, every one mocketh me. 8 For since I spake, I cried out, I cried violence and spoil; because the word of the LORD was ...read more

    Show Some Gratitude, Won't You?

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 6, 2021
     | 2,579 views

    The sins and wickedness of thanklessness and ingratitude have infiltrated the lives of everyone and is even found in the church of the Lord Jesus Christ. This has got to stop and we need to repent.

    There is a severe shortage of gratitude today, almost to the point of extinction. People are not thankful for favors, gifts, promotions, wealth, family, our homes, our health, or the jobs they have. We now possess the ugly and selfish attitude that we are somehow owed these things, and very few ...read more

    based on 32 ratings

    This sermon shows how God will and can change His mind to give us a little more time and to show us that our condition is not our conclusion.

    Introduction: The word time is a word that is often taken for granted. We are all guilty of often wasting time. We are all guilty of not using our time wisely. The old cliché says, “Time waits on no man.” The American Heritage College Dictionary defines time as a nonspatial continuum in ...read more

    A Picture Of Jesus

    Contributed by Don Baggett on Jun 26, 2010

     | 5,297 views

    The Bible is about Jesus, and there are many pictures of Him, even in the Old Testament where His name is not given. This message shows how Joseph is a picture of Jesus.

    I heard a preacher say that Jesus is on every page of the Bible, even when His name is not called, and if you read a page and don’t find Jesus, you need to read it again, because the Bible is about Jesus. I agree with that. Today, I want you to see some ways that Joseph gives us a picture of ...read more

    based on 59 ratings
     | 70,835 views

    One of the names by which Christians are known is "Light.” Christians are supposed to be the light in this dark world. Christians are supposed to show the way to people who do not know the way. They are supposed to direct those who are in darkness

    Matthew 5:14-16 says, “Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candle stick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your ...read more

    We recognize Jesus Christ through the Scriptures, not through our expectations or desires.

    Have you ever lost something, but only to realize it was right there with you the whole entire time? I remember one time I was speaking to my wife on the phone—we were just talking about random things—when suddenly, I fell into a panic.
