Paul’s Secret For The Christian Life

We look at Philippians 3:1-11 to see how a "Christ plus" gospel is no gospel at all.  We will look at Paul's command to "look out" for the dogs/evildoers/mutilators of the flesh who would take people away from the true gospel.  We will also look at the need to regret any claim we think we have on God and the need to count it all loss compared to the worth of knowing Christ Jesus!

Count It All Loss

Epaphroditus was an ordinary Christian in many ways.  But his dedication to the Lord, his love for his church, and his willingness to "let it all ride" on Jesus Christ set him apart in an extraordinary way.  We will look at how his life applies to us in Philippians 2:25-30.

The Extraordinary Ordinary Christian life

We continue in the book of Philippians, looking at verses 2:19-24.  Here we see the incredible impact on the church of a life that is fully committed to the Lord's interests.

What is a Timothy Worth

In Philippians 2:12-18 Paul speaks to Christians about what to do after salvation, when the apostle is absent, and at all times...   OBEY.  In fear in trembling, without complaining or internal dialogue, and holding fast the Word of Life!

Now What

From Philippians 2:1-11 we see the call to Christ-like humility; to be of one mind, one spirit, without division, following our King!

In Humility

In light of the motion calling to fire the pastor, Pastor Douglass preaches wisdom from Proverbs 18:10-18. To God Be The Glory. Amen

Wisdom For Firing Your Pastor

In today's sermon we take a look at two more qualifications for a pastor: respectability and hospitality...

A Noble Task Part III.

Today we have a special sermon spanning Leviticus 9-10.  We see how serious God is about the holiness of His worship and the practical implications for our church services.

Strange Fire

Today we examine the first four qualities required of a pastor: "above reproach," "husband of one wife," "sober-minded", and self-controlled."

A Noble Task Part II.

In this sermon we get an overview of the office and the work of a pastor.  

A Noble Task Part I.

This is our final sermon from 1 Timothy Chapter 2, dealing with women in the church.

Women In The Church

As we continue to look at 1 Timothy 2, we will see how God tells both men and women to conduct themselves in the church.

How To Conduct Ourselves In Church

This sermon is an overview of the major themes of 1 Timothy Chapter 2.  The clear message from this passage is that God has placed us all under authority, and He has instructed us as to how we should live under authority- even when that authority fails.

How To Live Under Authority Part 1

In 1 Timothy 1:12-20 we see that first Paul, and then Timothy were set apart for Christ's service.   This calling is based upon 1. God's Grace  2. God's Mercy  3. God's War Against False Teaching.
