We Are NOT Alone!

CGG Weekly by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

The X-Files TV drama popularized the phrase, 'We are not alone.' For Christians, the phrase takes on a somewhat different meaning, but it is absolutely true.


Friends of the Friendless (Part One)

CGG Weekly by John Reiss

God exhorts His children to be friends of the friendless, and reach out to others in our fellowship who may be experiencing difficult times.


The Elijah Syndrome (Part One)

CGG Weekly by David C. Grabbe

Though God worked through Elijah in ways that are almost without comparison, God also left a record of a low point in the prophet's life as a lesson for us.


Friendship

Sermonette by James Beaubelle

True Proverbs 18 friends are those who stick with us in this life and will wait for us as we finish our spiritual race.


Unsharpened

Sermonette by Joseph B. Baity

The church of God may have focused too intensely on elusive esoteric principles and neglected the basics, such as developing solid relationships.


The Elijah Syndrome (Part Two)

God taught Elijah that He is not in excessive displays of power or showy miracles when a voice will suffice.

The Path to Magnificence

Sermon by Mark Schindler

We have not been uninformed about the enemy's tactics, nor about our capacity to endure. God will never forsake us, and we should never forsake one another.


Isolation

Sermonette by Joseph B. Baity

God uses isolation as a tool for a plethora of reasons—some for protective purposes, some for quarantine, some for correction, some for punishment.


Overcoming Discouragement and Depression

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

Even loyal servants of God have had to contend with depression and discouragement. Antidotes include rest, refocus, right expectations, and obedient actions.


Our Divine Fellowship

Sermonette by Austin Del Castillo

Unless our primary relationship is with God, positive relationships with our brethren will be impossible and we will feel alone in our spiritual battles.


The Elijah Syndrome (Part Three)

CGG Weekly by David C. Grabbe

We can draw several lessons from Elijah, particularly his belief that he was the only one left whom God could use. God is always doing more than we are aware.


Antidote For Disunity!

Feast of Tabernacles Sermon by Martin G. Collins

We will become united as we draw closer to God. If we regard a brother in Christ as a competitor rather than as a trusted ally, unity will be impossible.


Prayer and Persistence

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

Persistence in prayer does not mean an incessant pestering God into action. God always looks at our petitions from the vantage-point of His purpose.
