Mount Olive IMBCHis Will, Not Your Words & WorksThe show, “Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace,” isn’t doing very well, but I enjoy it.
I enjoy it, because Chris is an excellent interviewer and he has special guest weekly from likes of Tyler Perry to Shania Twain.
Each week, I can hardly wait to see who Chris will talk to next.
Similarly, whenever I heard the words of Jesus I’m quite interested as to who He’s talking to.
For instance, in Matthew 7:21-23, He tells people who call Him “Lord” and who are doing what He does that He doe...2022-12-0236 min
Mount Olive IMBCUnmasking False Teachers (Matthew 7:15-20)“All that glitters isn’t gold,” is an aphorism that means everything is not as pure or true as it looks.
In fact, gold has to be tested to determine its authenticity and genuineness.
Likewise, all teachers who speak God’s name are not sent from God.
What type of test does Jesus recommend in Matthew 7:15-20 for discerning true and false prophets?

Mount Olive IMBCChoosing Paths (Matthew 7.13-14)Imagine that you have been given a road map that leads to an amazing, all-inclusive resort.
The road to it however, has pot-holes, loose gravel and is under construction along the way.
Would you endure the journey or seek an alternate route to it?
I have discovered that many people want the best life possible with little to no difficulty.
Throughout the Sermon on the Mountain, Jesus has given instructions about this life and the life to come.
He ends the message with four warnings for us to heed.2022-09-2942 min
Mount Olive IMBCA New Command Sermon Replay (John 13:33-35)On the night Jesus was to be betrayed, He knew every word He uttered in that moment would carry extreme weight in the lives of His disciples then, now, and always.
Christ gives us a new commandment, that, when obeyed, will make us into the most
effective witnesses to the truth of Christianity that we can possibly be. The
key to reaching our community - and our world - for Christ is found in this three-word commandment of Jesus.

Mount Olive IMBCHow To Treat PeopleAre you a good person?
Besides you, who else agrees with your answer?
What do you use to measure the goodness that is within you?
Is it by what you don’t do but others do?
Or, is it by what you do, but others don’t?
Asking and answering the above questions were necessary for the people of Jesus’ day, as well as for us, to see the major effect the Golden Rule is intended to have on human goodness.
Sunday’s sermon will speak to the rele...2022-09-0848 min
Mount Olive IMBCPrayer Call Series AnnoucementThe late civil rights heroine, Fannie Lou Hamer, once said, “If I fall, I’ll fall five feet, four inches forward in the the fight for freedom.”
Here’s what we can learn: During our lifetime we’re going to fail, we’re going to trip up, and we’re going to get knocked off our squares.
So, the question isn’t, will we fall?
The question is: will we get back on our feet after a fall?
Join us on Thursdays, beginning September 15th, at 6:30am for the Prayer Call series, Don’t Just Lie2022-09-0600 min

When children first start to color, they have two challenges.
First, they don’t know which colors are appropriate.
When my children were small, they gave me pictures of purple turtles, green clouds, and red grass.
Secondly, once the colors are chosen, children have a hard time staying within the lines.
As a child of God, at times, I don’t kn...2022-08-3057 min

Mount Olive IMBCPray Faithfully (Luke 18:1-8)Speaker: Rev. Marcelle T. Smith
Replay of sermon from Worship Service - Sunday, August 14, 2022
Most of the time, the breathing process takes place without us giving it much thought.
Unless we are sick or expediting trauma, we rarely think about it.
Fortunately and unfortunately, prayer can be like that.
Text: Luke 18:1-8
Thesis: To the believer, praying is as normal as breathing is to the body.
