The Gospel Sermon Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Oct 11, 2024

Mark's Gospel has been believed to have been written to the Roman people. So, why would Mark begin by declaring that he was going to tell them the "Gospel of Jesus Christ"... what did the Romans need to hear, and what do we need to hear from Mark's Gospel?

In the book of Acts, we’re told the Apostle Paul preached at Troas, and he preached so long that a man went to sleep and fell out of the window. When the Pilgrims settled at Plymouth - their sermons lasted so long that the congregation apparently placed a large hourglass on the pulpit to remind ...read more

Worship Of The Living Creatures

Contributed by Samuel M on Oct 11, 2024

Something beautiful happened when the living creatures began to worship God. Heaven came alive (to life), and all of heaven joined in to worship God. All of heaven was in one chorus worshipping God. All of heaven joined in a song of praise and adoration to God.

Whenever the living creatures give glory and honor and thanks to Him who sits on the throne, who lives forever and ever, the twenty-four elders fall down before Him who sits on the throne and worship Him who lives forever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne. Revelation ...read more

Thirtieth Sunday In Ordinary Time, B: Bartimaeus

What Do You Believe Jesus Can Do For You?

Contributed by Boniface Simiyu on Oct 11, 2024

Many people hear about Jesus but dont read scripture and consequently are limited in believing in the ability of Jesus to perform miracles or acts towards them. There are times what you believe Jesus can do, He will do.

The passage from Matthew 9:27-29, where two blind men cry out to Jesus for healing, provides a profound insight into the role of faith in receiving from Christ.

Sermon # 16 - Hinder No One Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 11, 2024

Jonah’s disobedience became a hindrance the entire crew of unbelievers aboard that ship. This is a caution to us that as believers we should walk in total obedience to God and not become a stumbling block to those outside the church.

We read in Jonah 1:13, “Instead, the sailors tried to get the ship to shore, rowing with all their might. But the storm was becoming worse and worse, and they got nowhere.” (GNB) As we continue these studies on the life of Jonah, there are many lessons that we can learn from the same. Though Jonah ...read more

The Power Of Christian Community

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Oct 10, 2024

It’s easy to get proud. It’s easy to want to show off. It's too common in the church. Instead, let’s choose to be very humble, serving each other gently.

I’ve been wrestling with God lately on some things, battling depression, anxiety, even questioning God, his will and purposes. And I’m so grateful for my wife who has been there day in and day out challenging my poor thinking patterns. Reciting God’s word to me. She brings the truth up, and just ...read more
