From The Ark To The House Of Prayer
Contributed on Feb 28, 2026
Under Christ our true Mercy Seat, where broken and whole are covered alike, may this House of Prayer become like David’s restored tent — a place of God’s presence with wings stretched wide and welcoming all nations.
Brothers and sisters, This afternoon we dedicate more than a gathering. We dedicate a dwelling place for the presence of God. And I want to take you back — not to a cathedral, not to a temple — but to a box. The Ark of the Covenant. I. What Was Inside the Ark? In the Book of Exodus 25, God ...read more

The Voice That Rules The Heart
Contributed on Feb 28, 2026
Psalm 36 shows that when the voice of sin blinds and flatters the human heart, the limitless covenant love of God—fulfilled in Jesus Christ as our Fountain of Life, Light of the world, and sheltering wings—rescues, restores, and reigns.
Psalm 36 - The Voice That Rules the Heart Introduction: Psalm 36 begins in an unexpected place. It does not begin with praise. It does not begin with prayer. It begins with a voice. “An oracle within my heart concerning the transgression of the wicked…” David says something is preaching. Not ...read more

Sneaker Sunday: The Only Thing Worth Boasting In
Contributed on Feb 14, 2026
The cross rescues us from this present evil age, removes the curse, crucifies our pride and flesh, and becomes the only thing worth boasting in. Because of the cross, every identity the world uses to divide and rank us is nailed to the tree, and we rise as one new creation, the Israel of God.
Text: Epistle to the Galatians INTRODUCTION — THE SHOES WE REMEMBER My brother and I grew up wearing PayLess Tennis shoes. When we got Airwalks; that was sacrifice for our parents. I remember the cool Velcro on those black and red shoes. When I got my first pair of Filas; I felt different ...read more

Use What You’ve Got!
Contributed on Feb 8, 2026
You don’t need a whole lot of faith, just trust in the faithful One!

You Are Mine
Contributed on Feb 7, 2026
Isaiah 43 declares that God’s people belong to Him, are not abandoned in exile, and need not fear because He is present with them. The Lord alone saves and is doing a new work that flows from His grace, not their faithfulness. For His own name’s sake, He forgives and restores them for His glory.
INTRODUCTION Good morning. There are moments in life when the real question is not “Does God exist?” The real question is “Do I still belong to Him?” We don’t usually lose faith all at once. We lose it slowly—through disappointment, failure, exile, silence. Isaiah 43 is written to people who ...read more

The Cork And The Whale
Contributed on Jul 6, 2025
2 Corinthians 4:7-18 offers a portrait of spiritual buoyancy. Paul, in other places, invites us to follow him as he follows Christ (1 Cor 11:1). His spiritual practices caused him to float above the difficulties that he faced over and over again in his life and ministry. One of the greatest things ...read more

Is A Blue Whale The Biggest Thing There Is?
Contributed on Jun 16, 2024
Leave it to a children’s book to help us see how big our universe is. In a book entitled "Is a Blue Whale the Biggest Thing There Is?" Robert Wells takes us from a size we can grasp to one we can’t. The largest animal on earth is the blue whale. Just the flippers on its tail are bigger ...read more

Theophany
Contributed on Jun 3, 2024
"Theologians have a specialized word to describe the instances when God appears to human beings. A visible manifestation of God within the Old Testament is called a theophany. The word theophany derives from two Greek words, the word for God (theos) and the word for appearing (phaino, which in ...read more

Power To Be The Light

When It Was Dark
Contributed on Apr 15, 2022
When It Was Dark I’m not quite sure how to say this. We have always said in the church that our faith was based upon facts. It was a faith built upon evidence that led us to the facts. My friends, something has come to light just this past week that is out now in the professional journals and ...read more
