Valuable Service

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Aug 22, 2021

There is no retirement in the Christian life. Your calling is active and valuable to the King until your last breath.

If you are still breathing there is time to do great things for God. Not necessary notable things. You may not get applause from your church, your name in the paper or the key to your city, but you can do great things. God's valuation is far different than man's. Matthew 10:42 And ...read more

Small Things? You May Never See? You May Never Know?

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Sep 2, 2021

In the ministry we may have many questions? Why can't I see the fruit of my labor now? Little things can kill the effectiveness of ministry. Are we called to success or faithfulness. Love small things. Never use comparison.

You May Never Know? Small Things

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Sep 8, 2021

One of my goals after 44 years of ministry is to FINISH WELL. Many of the seemingly small steps we take in ministry may seem to go unnoticed. Be faithful to your post of duty.

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 29, 2023

What if we had simply 3 Gospel writers, or just 2 of them, or only one Gospel writer? This study looks at each of the 4 Gospels – composition, style and harmony. Faces and branches of the Old Testament confirm the 4 Gospels. I hope you find this interesting. What the Gospels focus on.

Zechariah Sees Four Chariots. In verses 1-8: • 1st chariot – red horses – bloodshed. • Revelation 6:4.

Start Small 2023 Series

Contributed by Louis Mare on Jan 2, 2023

We try to do so many things and be better in so many areas that, in the end, we accomplish nothing. We are just back at square 1. And we all thought we would learn through the pandemic. And we are not even out of it, and we like even crazier than before.

Wake Up, Get Up, Open Our Eyes

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 3, 2023

This is another vision for Zechariah. Here we see work that is being done and encouragement given to complete that work.

This is another vision where Zechariah sees the golden lampstand and olive trees. The ultimate meaning of this vision answers the question “How will any Christian finish the work that the Lord has given them to do?” It is by the Spirit of God. In verses 1-5: The angel came and woke Zachariah up. ...read more

Should We Change The Way We Do Church?

Contributed by Richard Tow on Jan 23, 2023

The decline in North American Christianity is prompting various efforts to revise the way we do church. Some of these efforts are clearly counterproductive. Acts 2:42-47 reveals eight practices that must be incorporated in any church model.

Should we change the way we do church? That question is being asked by a lot of people in America. Something is not working as it should. Almost everyone agrees on that. For the first time in U.S. history, church membership fell below the majority according to a Gallup poll conducted in 2020. This ...read more

God’s Promise Of Turnaround (This Is Not How Your Story Ends) Series

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Mar 7, 2024

Zerubbabel’s mind was occupied by more pressing matters. Leaders must not only lead in the moment of crisis, but they must also lead us into the future. Before Zerubbabel can lead into the future, God must rebuild his faith and confidence.

Sermon: God’s Promise of Turnaround Haggai 2:18-23 “Think about this eighteenth day of December, the day when the foundation of the Lord’s Temple was laid. Think carefully.

Builders Of The Temple

Contributed by Phillip Smith on Mar 14, 2024

We read of Zerubbabel being the master carpenter over the rebuilding of the Temple in Jerusalem. He did physically build a temple, however, the scripture alludes to one being named, ‘The Branch’, to build the temple, and, ‘they that are far off shall come and build in the temple of the Lord.’

Overcoming Spiritual Mountains

Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on Nov 25, 2022

Physical mountains are intimidating. There are almost immovable. Spiritual mountains are even more fearsome, they instil fear. Spiritual mountains represent challenges in life that defy human solutions.
