Sermon # 3 - Going The Wrong Way Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 28, 2024

What is God’s purpose for establishing the church? Are we fulfilling this purpose or running in the wrong direction like Jonah did? As a church may we realize our purpose and fulfill it at all cost.

We read in Jonah 1:3, “But Jonah rose to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD. He went down to Joppa and found a ship going to Tarshish. So he paid the fare and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish, away from the presence of the LORD.” (ESV) The word of the Lord we saw in the ...read more

One-Handed Giving - Matthew 6:3-4 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Aug 27, 2024

Jesus spends so much time in Matthew 6 and other places trying to get us to be motivated by eternal rewards. Why are so few Christians still not motivated by reward?

Matthew 6:1-18 "Be careful not to do your 'acts of righteousness' before men, to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven. 2 "So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the ...read more

Giving & Reward - Matthew 6:2 Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Aug 27, 2024

David, the hero of Israel and God's chosen vessel to be the next king, came to a point in his life where all he had gained was now lost and forgotten. He hit rock bottom, yet God used this to show David that he needed to rely only on Him for support and strength.

"David arose and fled that day from before Saul and went to Achish the king of Gath. The servants of Achish said to him, 'Is this not David the king of the land? Did they not sing of him to one another, saying, 'Saul has slain his thousands and David his ten thousand?' Now David ...read more
