"Angry?" - Joey Ferrell - 2/16/2014

Do you ever find yourself angry?  Sure you do.  We all do.  Paul addresses the church at Ephesus regarding anger and reminds that of the statement in Psalm 4:4 - "Be angry and do not sin." We can all learn from this instruction surrounding this verse in Ephesians 4 and learn that there are two kinds of anger...a sinful anger, and a righteous anger.   There are things going on in our world that anger me, and they certainly anger God.  But, we cannot sin in our anger.  Jesus Christ showed t...

"What if God Treated Me Like I Treat..." - Joey Ferrell - 2/9/2014

"Seed Principles" - 12/8/2013 - Joey Ferrell

When planting seed, there has to be some sort of principle.  You cannot plant a pumpkin seed and get a cucumber.  It isn't genetically possible.  Neither is creating a seed just like another seed possible.  No matter how many times you try to get a seed to produce harvest, it has to be by the right principles.   Matt 13, Mark 4, Luke 8 all explain some of these principles.  Please listen to this message and share with your friends.

"In God We Trust?" - 12/1/2013 - Joey Ferrell

Our money says "In God We Trust" on it.  But, when you really think about it, do we really trust God in our lives?  Moses showed in Exodus 3-4 that he had a problem trusting God to start with.  How many times do we tell God "I trust you God", then tell God later on that we just can't do what He wants us to do?   Trust God!  Show Him our trust in obedience.  He will take care of us!  Matt 6:25-34   Please listen and share.  If you have questions or comments, please leave them here or emai...

"Thankful Every Day" - 11/24/2013 - Joey Ferrell

When it comes to this time of the year, we often remember to be thankful for the many things that we have. God blesses us each every single day - even when there is no merit.   "Blessed be the God of our salvation who daily loadeth us with benefits. . ."  Psalm 68:19   Are you thankful as much as God is gracious to us?  Can we be thankful for everything, including adversities in our lives?  Thank God today...thank God tomorrow.  And...be thankful EVERY DAY! Please listen and share.

"Why Did He Have to Die?" - 11/17/2013 - Joey Ferrell

When those that are near to us in this life pass away, it upsets us dearly.  The Bible tells us that we are to mourn with those that are mourning, so this is a very understandable feeling.  Sometimes the question is asked "Why did xxxx have to die?" Have you ever considered when Jesus died "Why did HE have to die?"  This lesson explains some of the Biblical reasoning behind why Jesus had to die!
