VSIBC’s 2023 theme is “Hold Fast”. During the month of February, we are “Putting Out The Goose Wing” as a church. What is a goose wing? A goose wing was a small sail put out to catch more wind and, along with the positioning of the sails, enabled the ship to run faster.

This month, we are challenging people to put out their spiritual goose wing – something that will help them grow faster. What is the challenge? We are challenging every member to listen to two extra messages every single week during the month of February. Two recommended messages will be posted to our Facebook page on Tuesday and Thursday morning.

Will you accept the challenge?

Message For Tuesday, February 28TH:

Dr. Jeff Fugate has been pastoring the Clays Mill Baptist Church of Nicholasville, Kentucky for many years. He has faithfully served the Lord and stood as a bastion of preaching the fundamentals of the faith. We praise the Lord for the ministry that Dr. Fugate leads and encourage you to truly allow this message to help you “put out the goose-wing”.

Message For Thursday, February 23RD:

It is our privilege to have Dr. Mike Wells with us every August for our “August Tuesday Nights of Powerful Preaching”. Dr. Mike Wells was an evangelist for many years and is now the Pastor of the Parkside Baptist Church in Mesquite, Texas. He is also the President of Lone Star Baptist College. This message, entitled “Stay With Your Faith”, is one that will encourage you to keep fighting in the army of our Lord!

Message For Tuesday, February 21ST:

Dr. John Hamblin has been traveling the evangelist trail and faithfully preaching the Word of God for many years now. His firm stand on the Word of God and right doctrine is something that we should each emulate. “3 Compromisers I Have Known” is an incredibly powerful message that has been passed all over the internet as a true standard for Dr. Hamblin’s preaching. Allow this message to reach deep into your heart and tug at the areas that you need to grow in.

Message For Thursday, February 16TH:

Dr. S.M. Lockridge was a stellar man of God who served the Lord faithfully for many decades. He preached nationwide and was well-known as a Bible-believing, fundamental Baptist. His preaching was eloquent, yet easy to listen to. “Amen” (sometimes known as “That’s My King”), preached in the 1970’s, is most likely his most famous/most remembered message. This message is filled with power to help you “put out the goose-wing”!

Message For Tuesday, February 14TH:

Dr. Dave McCoy preached at VSIBC every year for our Christmas Revival. We were deeply saddened at his passing in September of 2021. This message below is one of the same messages he preached at our Christmas Revival of 2020. While, we do not have the video of him preaching that message at our church on YouTube, we were able to find where he preached it at another church. We are sure this message will be a blessing to you once again!

Message For Thursday, February 9TH:

Pastor Mike Ray preaches a message of endurance and encouragement entitled: “Keep Your Pole In The Water”. This message is a much needed “shot-in-the-arm” for Christians in all walks of life. We are sure you will enjoy this great message!

Message For Tuesday, February 7TH:

Pastor Kerry Nance preached a powerful message during our 2021 “August Tuesday Nights Of Powerful Preaching”. This message will be sure to help you in the days ahead!
