"He Gave Me a Song" 5/31/2015 - Joey Ferrell

June 01, 2015 02:57 - 27.5 MB

In the context of Ephesians 5:18-19, the word of God uses three different Greek words to describing singing:  ado, humneo, and psallo. As we look at this lesson, let's study through the scriptures to see what is told about singing in worship services. This is a 4 point lesson on 1) Singing in Crisis, 2) Singing in cheerfulness, 3) Singing in Worship, 4) Singing in Teaching. What song did He give you?   Please listen and share.

"Memorial Day - A Feast Divine" - Joey Ferrell - 5/24/2015

May 26, 2015 01:05 - 23.7 MB

Memorial Day - a day that our country celebrates and honors those that served selflessly for others. In this lesson, we will explore another sort of memorial that Christians have privilege and opportunity to remember each and every first day of the week....the Lord's Supper. Come and join us as we talk about the preparation, the feast, and the memorial.   Please listen and share.

"Man of Few Words" - Joey Ferrell - 5/17/2015

May 19, 2015 16:42 - 25.1 MB

It is estimated that we speak about 11,000,000 words per year.  That would be about 750,000,000 over a lifetime. What do these words end up doing though?  Are they words that will benefit?  Words that will convince souls to come to Christ?  Words that are angry?  Words that are idle? What words are you speaking? This lesson approaches some of the importance of the "few words" that Jesus spoke in his 3.5 years of public ministry. We don't have a complete record of all that was said, as Jo...

"The Greatest of These" - 5/10/2015 - Joey Ferrell

May 18, 2015 03:28 - 25.2 MB

In 1 Corinthians 12-13, Paul explains some gifts that were being desired, a bit selfishly it seemed, and abused. He closes out chapter 12 with the words that there was a more excellent gift. Chapter 13 describes that gift, and we look at the text in detail of how that gift works in us in this lesson.   Please listen and share.

"Write it Down" 5 /3/2015 - Joey Ferrell

May 13, 2015 21:57 - 21.2 MB

Jeremiah was told to "Write it down." Then, when the words were destroyed, he was told to write it down again. How important is it to "write it down?"  How about the way that we "write" our lives? Please listen to this lesson that uses the illustration of a pencil to show how our lives are certainly being "written down" daily. Special thanks to Steve Vice for sharing notes on this lesson.

"Getting Down on Your Knees" - Joey Ferrell - 4/19/2015

April 19, 2015 23:44 - 25.5 MB

When is the last time that you have gotten on your knees? Maybe it was a family member in need, maybe a job in jeopardy, maybe a situation in your relationship.... but what about something...or someone that is lost? Have you gotten on your knees to find someone that is lost? Please listen to this message, share it with others, and get on your knees with me!  

"The Day After: A Day of No Hope!" - 4/5/2015 - Joey Ferrell

April 05, 2015 20:06 - 22.7 MB

There was a day that those looking for hope no longer had any hope.  That day was not much different than any other day...except that the Messiah had been executed! There was no hope of salvation that day.  No hope of eternity that day.  No hope of forgiveness that day...no hope...just no hope. There will come another day where there will be no hope.  Many will find that day sadly.   Please listen and share this lesson on a day of no hope!

"King of My Heart" - Joey Ferrell - 3/22/2015

March 30, 2015 12:35 - 23.3 MB

We sometimes sing a song with the words "King of my life I crown thee now."  In this song, we make proclamation that we place Christ as our King in our lives. How about in our heart?  Have we made Christ the King of our heart? Listen to this lesson about some Old Testament king passages, and then see if you have made Jesus the "King of My Heart." Please listen and share.

"Hope - It is coming!" - Joey Ferrell - 3/29/2015

March 29, 2015 17:33 - 23.2 MB

Faith is the substance of things hoped for.  However, where does our hope come from?  Is it something that can be found in Noah?  Maybe in Abraham?  Was it something that we would see well ahead of time? We all have hopes in our lives.  The greatest hope should be eternity in heaven. I have that hope, and I hope you do too! Please listen and share this message from the gospel!

tbh2015 - "Living Morally in an Immoral World" - Jack Honeycutt - 3/21/2015

March 23, 2015 00:23 - 43.4 MB

Today, we live in one of the most immoral times that seem like are around on this side of the Cross. It is hard to live a life without sin.  Matter of fact, the Bible tells us that we "all sin and fall short of the glory of God." However, if we surround ourselves with people with great moral values, if we maintain a life of getting away as fast as we can from sinful things, if we shut out all of the evil in which Satan is putting in front of us each and every day - our lives can be moral.....

tbh2015 - "Peer Pressure and Bullying - Living a young life today" - Trent Key

March 22, 2015 21:36 - 39.9 MB

In today's world, youth are faced with all kinds of destructive actions.  Moral destruction, social destruction, and even physical destruction. Seems as if nearly once per week you may hear about a young person in our area committing suicide, or at the least cutting themselves, or doing other things that could cause great pain or death. Why do these young folks give reason for this?  Well, we know that there is NO reason for such to happen; however, the common elements that are discussed r...

March 22, 2015 17:15 - 26.9 MB

The final in this series on Marriage, Divorce, and Remarriage.   The world is confused on marriage, but seems to be even more confused when it comes to divorce and remarriage. Listen to this lesson based on the biblical tenets of remarriage after a divorce and see if the truth can be known! Please listen and share.

tbh2015 - "To Tweet or Not to Tweet: Hey...did you like my status?" - 3/21/2015 - Joey Ferrell

March 22, 2015 06:23 - 43.3 MB

This is the second in our series of lessons for tbh2015. This lesson is presented by Joey Ferrell from the church of Christ at Elkins. The title speaks realms about the subject.  Social Media is something that is in our everyday world these days.  How is it helpful?  How is it hurtful?  Do you know all you need to know about how social media can affect your soul? Please listen and share.

tbh2015 - "Texting/Sexting/Snapping/Yapping and all those other cool things....." - 3/21/2015 - Drew Milligan

March 22, 2015 06:03 - 29.2 MB

This is the first in our series in the TBH youth event held at the church of Christ at Elkins on 3/21/2015. This lesson is titled "Texting/Sexting/Snapping/Yapping and all those other cool things that smartphones can do" presented by Drew Milligan from the Corinth church of Christ in Dekalb County.

"Divorce: The Commitment" - Joey Ferrell - 3/15/2015

March 15, 2015 17:38 - 26.9 MB

God put the method in order of marriage in the beginning of time with a covenant.  Breaking this covenant means that someone is destroying a work that God has put into place. Our society has some alarming statistics regarding divorce, as well as the attitude of divorce.  It is very disturbing and it creeps its way into the church more and more each day. This lesson is a biblically based discussion of divorce.  It is not meant to condemn, judge, or call out other than the basis of the Bible...

"Marriage - The Covenant" - Joey Ferrell - 3/8/2015

March 08, 2015 19:06 - 24.1 MB

In the beginning, God created man in His own image.  When God saw that there was not a suitable mate for man, He created woman.   In Genesis 1-2, we see that this creation resulted in the first command of family in the Bible - marriage.  Leaving father and mother and cleaving (holding on too, grasping, longing for) to your spouse. In the wedding vows spoken in religious ceremonies, the words "till death do us part" is often stated.  And it should be. In Revelation, a different marriage is...

"I Did it My Way!" - Joey Ferrell - 2/8/2015

February 09, 2015 02:04 - 26.1 MB

Frank Sinatra penned a song titled "I Did it My Way" that is used many times at or near the end of someone's life. Unfortunately, people sometimes choose to do things "my way" instead of the way that God has purposed. Listen to this story of four different situations where this happened in the Old Testament.  Then, decide if where and how you worship God is God's way, or if you are doing it "my way." Please listen and share.

"Through the Roof!" - Joey Ferrell - 2/1/2015

February 01, 2015 17:59 - 13.7 MB

When you can't get through the door, maybe it's time to go through the roof! Listen and share this expository lesson on Mark 2:1-12 and see if your own faith would be met with the same response from Jesus as these men were when He said "Your sins are forgiven."

"I QUIT!" - Joey Ferrell - 1/25/2015

January 25, 2015 21:00 - 12.7 MB

Have you ever just felt like saying "I quit?" Most of us have.  Some of us have admittedly done it.  We have quit in the church, we have quit in learning, and we may have quit Jesus. But, what if we looked at the reasons that WE might want to quit...and then apply them to what some in the Bible were faced with...such as the lesson from Paul to Timothy in 2 Timothy 4?  Or to the church in Sardis with the words of Jesus? Or, to the disciples that just couldn't take the sayings of Jesus in Jo...

"Richer or Poorer" - Joey Ferrell - 1/18/2015

January 18, 2015 20:54 - 12.1 MB

"In sickness and in health; for better or for worse; for richer or poorer" In the most sacred covenant in this earthly life, we may utter these words to our spouse in a commitment of vows. What about when we become a Christian?  Do we utter the same vows as the "bride of Christ"? For richer or poorer.  Let's take a journey and study some aspects of the poor, the rich, the attitude and the challenge given in all of these in this lesson.   Please listen and share!

"Revive Us Again" - Joey Ferrell - 1/11/2015

January 11, 2015 20:06 - 14.4 MB

Oh Korah, how can you revolt?  The nation of Israel was such an innocent nation. The sons of Korah lament their repentance well in Psalm 85.  You see, there is a way that we can be "dead", and need to be revived!   Come and join us on this theme of revival in "Revive Us Again!"   Please listen and share!

"Attitude - It's what it's all about!" - Joey Ferrell - 1/4/2015

January 06, 2015 02:04 - 11.2 MB

Sometimes it's all about the attitude!  Jesus showed us that attitude matters in the sermon on the mount, and taught us that the heart follows the attitude. What is your attitude like?  Is it one that will resonate in a gladness of others, or is it one that nobody wants to be around.   Listen to this lesson, decide about your own attitude, and then share it with others.

"Jesus - the Challenge!" - Joey Ferrell 1/4/2015

January 04, 2015 19:57 - 9.46 MB

Jesus taught us a lot in His life.  He taught us how to be saved, how to help others save, and how to spend eternity in heaven being faithful. He taught us such great things in a perspective that we can understand easily. One thing that He taught us is to teach others.   He did this by Himself, telling those to follow Him, teaching the apostles to go out on their own, then sending out others. Listen to this lesson on evangelism - Jesus the Challenge and share it with others!

"At the Last Second..." - Joey Ferrell - 12/28/2014

December 28, 2014 20:42 - 13.3 MB

Have you ever waited until the absolute last second to do something?  We all have I am sure.  Sometimes it may seem that it is okay to do so, but in some cases...it may cost more than you may be bargaining for. Come and join us as we discuss what happened on August 29, 2005 and how those that may have waited until the last second didn't fair so well. Please listen and share!

"The Greatest Gift" - Joey Ferrell - 12/21/2014

December 22, 2014 00:40

Ever really think about the greatest gift that you have gotten, or even that you may have purchased for someone? Was it expensive?  Was it valuable?  Was it sentimental?  Was it something that YOU liked more than they did? How did you wrap it?  Was it fancy?  In a big box? Small box?  Plain box? Gift bag? You know when it comes to gift giving...and gift receiving, there are many things to consider: 1.  Popularity 2.  Expense 3.  If it keeps on giving 4.  Packaging 5.  Is it truly the...
