Godcast #100 - Heavenly Risk Takers: Bro. Jim Duffel
November 17, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Heavenly Risk Takers 2 Samuel 23:13-17
Bro. Jim delves deep into his cache of sermons to explain to us that we should be “Heavenly Risk Takers” in our daily walk. That we shouldn’t be complacent and just recline in our spiritual easy chairs but go out and make a difference as we are in the last days and we have been chosen to make a difference. Bro. Jim also informs us that Bro. Steve Terrell and his family are moving back to Lake City to start a bivocational ministry. Bro. Steve has had a huge impact on our church since he came here nearly two years ago. We will surely miss him and his family and we wish them all the blessings of God in their decision to follow where the Lord leads them.

Being Rapture Ready I Thessalonians 4:13-18
Bro. Jim tells us of the rapture of the church and how we should be prepared as there are no prophesies that have to happen before Jesus comes to catch us up in the air with Him. He shows us that the story of Lot being rescued from Sodom and Gomorrah has a direct correlation to the rapture of Christ’s Church.

Godcast #97 - Lessons From Lot: Bro. Jim Duffel
November 12, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Lessons From Lot 2 Peter 2:6-9
First we are presented with a brief word from Shannon Bruner, Director of the Pregnancy Care Center of Trumann about how they are using their ministry to help young men and women who find themselves in trouble in our area. Bro. Jim then uses the story of Sodom and Gomorrah to remind us that we are aliens in this world, that we should recognize the authority of God and that we should refocus our attitude of prayer and preparation. We feel that the Lord is using Mrs. Bruner and her organization to do some necessary work in our area and we support them in their endeavors. If you would like to make a donation, volunteer or make a contribution of any kind, please contact Shannon Bruner at the numbers below.

Jude 1:3 Contend For The Faith
Bro. Jim, in a deviation from his prepared message for the evening, makes a heartfelt, stern appeal to us from the book of Jude to contend for the faith God has given us. He encourages us to take a stand for God and to measure up to lost people and their evil influences before us in this world which sees wrong as right and right as wrong.

Godcast #95 - Favor or Funeral?: Bro. Jim Duffel
November 5, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Proverbs 29:2 Favor or Funeral?
Bro. Jim poses the question, Favor or Funeral? as he uses Proverbs 29:2 as an example of how the presence of righteousness in our leaders can lead to our nation obtaining favor from God. Whereas if we have leaders who are wicked, the people groan as if they are at a funeral and God shows them no favor due to their wicked ways. He describes our nation as being in a crisis of leadership and shows us that we often elect leaders in order for them to enact laws which we desire instead of electing people who put righteousness before their personal agendas and display a Godly character.

Matthew 12:1-8 & Hosea 6:6 Mercy, Not Sacrifice - The Conflict of Christ
Bro. Steve uses a story of Jesus dealing with the Pharisees from the book of Matthew to describe how Jesus came to fulfil the law, not to destroy it. He shows us that from what God has given us for good, man has turned to bad. He also uses these scriptures to explain that Jesus is the Lord of the Sabbath, the Lord of Love, the Lord of the Law and the Lord of All.
