The Open Bible Pulpit: Positive Resurrection
Pastor Chuck Jones  E-mail Chuck    Visit Chuck's blog
Church of the Open Bible Pomona, California
The resurrection is certain.  Jesus said he would be raised from the
dead, and God brought him back to life.  There's an empty tomb where
Jesus was laid.  A dead man came back to life.  It's an historical fact.  All
the human efforts to prevent Jesus from being raised only prove that he
was.  Need more proof?  Listen to today's message.

Playing God: Little 'g'
Pastor Seth Ross    E-mail Seth
North Hills Church of God  Springfield, Ohio
We've all been where we prayed and prayed for something we really
wanted, and God answered our prayer.  We tell everyone that God gave
us this job or led us into this or that relationship.  But what happens if
you have to choose to honor God even if it might mean you lose what
he's given you?  Will you compromise with the world?  Will you resist the
will of God to maintain the blessings of God?  In today's message, we
look at a story of a man in that exact position and learn how we should -
or maybe should not - respond.      John 11
The Voice of Tomorrow Broadcast with Pastor Dale Swartz  
A broadcast ministry of
Kingdom Ministries, Inc (Litchfield, Minnesota).  
Kingdom Ministries is a completely faith-based ministry created to
simply and clearly proclaim the message of the Kingdom of God and to
share God's love in a practical way.  Today's message examines the
faith of Abraham.  God had promised that a great nation would come
from him, but it had been 25 years.  Abraham and his wife were past
child-bearing years, but the Lord had promised them a child.  When
there was no other way, they just had to trust Him.

Bear Ye One Another's Burdens
Pastor Terry M. Ferrell   E-mail Terry
Greenville Church of God, 217 White Oak Road, Greenville, SC 29605
We live in a dog-eat-dog world.  Day by day we all have our burdens and
cares and sorrows.  That's why words of encouragement can mean so
much.  And we all have a calling as Christians to share the burdens of
other believers.  We need each other as a family.  And with someone
else helping lift our burdens, the pressure of a heavy weight can be
relieved.  Galatians 6:1-10; 5:16-25; Matthew 4:21; 11:29,30;
Romans 15:1-7; John 13:54; 15:12
Sinking Our Roots Deep:  Supernatural Power Through Healthy
Relationships
Pastor Alan Cain    E-mail Alan
Lawrenceville Church of God  4444 St. Paris Pike, Springfield, OH 45504
The world as we know it is significantly changing every day as we
approach the end of the age.  It's going to get worse.  We need to be a
people with deep roots sunk deep in the word of God no matter what
storms may come.  In today's message, we learn how our relationship
with each other affects our relationship with our Father.  Maybe you feel
like your prayers aren't making it past the ceiling.  Do you feel like your
relationship with the Father is strained, and you don't know why?  Maybe
the issue isn't between you and Him.

The Highway Home
Steve Taylor   E-mail Steve
Lakeshore Bible Church  Tempe, Arizona   Check out Steve's blog
There's no place like home...sounds like a movie or a song doesn't it?  
Travel the highway to home, and see where it leads and what you see on
the way.       Isaiah 35
God is Ready When You Are
Wally Winner     E-mail Wally
Joy Fellowship Church of God of the Abrahamic Faith  Piedmont, South
Carolina
Waiting on God?  Maybe He's waiting on you.  God might be just
demonstrating His patience for you.  Do you think you can stumble
beyond recovery?  You can't.  Do you think God will change His mind
about you?  He won't.  Do you want to experience a meaningful life?  Your
only hope is in Him.  And He's ready - whenever you are.
Romans 9
Seeking and Saving the Lost
Pastor James Mattison
Jesus said he came to seek and to save that which was lost.  As his
followers, we have the same mission.  Are we fulfilling the Great
Commission?  Are we doing anything to save the lost?    Luke 19:10
After the Sunrise Radio Broadcast:  "Sticks and Stones"
Pastor Darrell Cardwell    E-mail Darrell
North Salem Church of God   Plymouth, Indiana
Have you ever been hurt by something someone said?  Do the things
that we say ever hurt others?  In today's message, Pastor Darrell
shares with us what the Scripture says about the use of words towards
one another.
How Can You Enter the Kingdom of God?
Pastor Dave Hixon    E-mail Dave
Brush Creek Church of God   Tipp City, Ohio
How can we enter the Kingdom of God?  Is there any more important
question we can ask?  But before we can enter the Kingdom of God,
we'd better know what that kingdom is.  What's all that "good news"
about anyway?  Find out today.
Facing the Future
Pastor John Railton     Email John
In our planning and in our goals, we must do so with God's plans and
goals in mind.  We can't leave God out.  It's not about what we want.  
We have to understand and try to discern God's will.   And God has
some really big plans for all of us. But how can we know God's will?
James 4:13-17; Luke 12; Romans 12:1,2

Treat Her Like a Lady
Pastor Jeff Fletcher  E-mail Jeff
Bethel Church of God of the Abrahamic Faith, Pelzer, South Carolina
There are three kinds of women the Bible talks about: mothers, sisters,
and wives.  And God  instructs us how to treat them.  He's given us very
specific instructions on how to view them and how to treat them.  And
when we honor them, we honor God.

Communion Thoughts
Pastor Michael Cisler    E-mail Mike
North Kent Bible Church   Rockford, Michigan
When we share in the communion, Paul tells us we are proclaiming
the Lord's death.  We can joyfully proclaim his death knowing he
overcame it.  And through the death of Jesus Christ, we have the
blessings and promises in our lives.

Brush Creek Radio Broadcast: "The Creation and the Nature of Man"
Dick Worley
Why did Eve believe the direct contradiction of God's word?  Why do
people today still believe the same lie from the garden?  God said that
man would die and return to the dust from which he was made.  How
can that be so misunderstood?  In today's message, we take a fresh
look at the creation and the nature of man and what it has to do with the
promises and the hope of mankind.

Playing God: The Script
Pastor Seth Ross    E-mail Seth
North Hills Church of God  Springfield, Ohio
For many of us, we're tempted to leverage our power and influence for
our own benefit - not God's.  But do you know what's really the most
powerful combination?  It's when extraordinary humility combines with
extraordinary power.  On the cross and in the grave, Jesus went where
he didn't need to and didn't deserve to go.  But through his example,
we learn how God really wants us to use the power He has given to
each of us.
Philippians 2:3-11
