A Letter To You From Peter

Have you ever imagined what it would be like to actually live many years ago during the time of the early church?

True Blessings: What Are You Thankful For?

Serve Me Now or Serve Me Later

Our Podcast this week is a very sobering sermon and contains warnings as well as instruction for everyone.

What Really Happened At Calvary

One of the things we should regularly stop and meditate on or think deeply about is the death of our Lord Jesus. The fact that the only son of the creator of the entire universe was willing to forfeit His life on this earth to provide the opportunity for us to live forever in heaven is amazing!

This interesting sermon by Phil Roberts gives us plenty of things to meditate on as we stop to consider that unfathomable day.

Neither Barren Nor Unfruitful

On the continent of Africa, in the small country of Zimbabwe, lives a quiet yet effective man of God.

Who Is My Neighbor?

Even if a sermon was preached years ago, the truth of God's word is still encouraging and applicable. This week's Podcast is a sermon by James R. Cope that was preserved for us by Kent Heaton of the Trenton Church of Christ. James R. Cope preached for Antioch for many years but was best known for his work with Florida College where he became president of the college. During his lifetime of service to others he preached in many different places all over the world.

This sermon was preached in Birmingham, Alabama in the year 1963. I'm thankful the recording has been preserved for all of us to hear. Listen and you will learn who your neighbor is.

What Redemption Means

Why Esau Failed

We are all aware of the story of Jacob and Esau. We are disdained by the fact that Esau paid no regard to God and sold his valuable birthright for nothing more than food. Do you realize, however, that both you and I can just as easily fall prey to the same things that caused the downfall of Esau?

With this week's podcast, Phil Roberts points out Esau's failings and explains how to avoid them. You can listen from the website or right-click on the title and download to your iPod or mp3 player.

Summary Of Habakkuk

This Podcast is from a sermon by one of our favorite preachers, Phil Roberts who passed away several years ago.

Fences And Freedom

Traditions Versus The Written Word

Twenty years ago Dr. Phil Roberts, as he was known in academic circles, preached a sermon that's just as pertinent today as it was then.

Voices That Call You

How much attention do you have? Isn't someone always trying to get your attention? This sermon explores the voices that call you and try to influence you and the attitudes that generate those appeals.
