Holy Spirit Baptism Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jul 7, 2021

This sermon examines Holy Spirit baptism from a Baptist's perspective, asking, "Is it really a second work of grace?" and "Must it be evidenced by speaking in tongues?" Also, "Is being filled with the Spirit the same thing?"

This morning, I’m going to have us look at something called “Holy Spirit baptism.” This is a subject that when mishandled can lead to a lot of confusion; not to mention, feelings of condemnation. The very first time I encountered this term was when I was in college and I attended an Assemblies of ...read more

The Judgment Of The Almighty Series

Suffering To Setup Series

Contributed by Sean Dees on Apr 1, 2025

Suffering is not a sermon topic we use much. It doesn't draw crowds or entice us to support the church. We fail to warn believers that there will be times of suffering. Suffering is something we all have to endure in our walk with the Lord.

The Wounds Of Jesus.

Contributed by Timothy Ogada on May 3, 2025

First and foremost, may all glory be to God for helping us see and go through this Stewardship week of prayer. Special thanks to my family; my wife Christine, my best friend and the mother to my children, is one human being that is better than me in so many ways. I love her.

Just a little history about crucifixion: Crucifixion was invented by the Persians in 300-400BC and developed, during Roman empire times, into a punishment for the most serious of criminals. It was thought of as the most horrible, painful, tortuous, and ...read more

Epochal Events I came across a short line from a theologian and scholar named Richard D. Phillips. He basically said this (as I'm paraphrasing here), “Occasionally in Scripture we come across a truly epochal event that just changes everything.” — Richard D. Phillips I love that word: ...read more
