    Hidden among the laws, rituals, and sacrifices of Leviticus, we discover some of the clearest pictures of Jesus Christ in all of Scripture.

    Go! And See the Scapegoat: Christ Our Substitute - Leviticus 16:7–8 Leviticus 16:7–8 (NLT): “Then he must take the two male goats and present them to the Lord at the entrance of the Tabernacle.

    based on 1 rating
     | 234 views

    We live in a world that is constantly restless—our culture prizes busyness, our calendars are full, and our minds are rarely still. Yet the Bible speaks of a special rest that God has prepared for His people.

    Go! And Enter His Rest - Hebrews 4:9 Hebrews 4:9 – “So there is a special rest still waiting for the people of God.” (NLT) Introduction: Restless in a Restless World We live in a world that is constantly restless.

    Faith On Autopilot – Going Through The Motions Without Heart Series

    Contributed by Dr. John D. Wentworth on Sep 27, 2025
     | 84 views

    There’s comfort in routine. Singing the same hymns, praying the same prayers, sitting in the same pew each Sunday—it all feels safe. But these familiar patterns can lull us into a dangerous place: performing religion instead of pursuing Jesus.

    Title: Faith on Autopilot – Going Through the Motions Without Heart Text: Matt. 15:8-9 ‘This people honors me with their lips but their heart is far from me; 9 in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’ “When routine replaces relationship” Introduction: “When faith ...read more

    An Inheritance That Cannot Fade Series

    Contributed by Paul Dayao on Sep 27, 2025
     | 64 views

    This sermon explains that our Christian hope is fixed on a heavenly inheritance that is secure from decay ("incorruptible"), pure from sin ("undefiled"), and eternally glorious ("fadeth not away"), all personally guaranteed by God.

    Introduction: Earthly Investments Brothers and sisters, in the previous verse, Peter told us we have been born again into a "lively hope." A hope for what? Verse 4 gives us the stunning answer. We have been born into an inheritance. In our world, an inheritance is often something we ...read more

    The Forgiveness Factor

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 27, 2025
     | 55 views

    Forgiveness received and given restores innocence, frees us from bondage, and releases God’s joy and power through faith in Jesus Christ.

    Introduction – Unlocking What’s Stuck Not long ago I picked up my phone and realized I’d forgotten the passcode. No matter how many times I swiped, the screen stayed locked. I tried combinations I was sure were right—nothing. That’s what unforgiveness does to the heart. We try every swipe—new ...read more

    The Legend Of Samara

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 27, 2025
     | 83 views

    Because Jesus conquered death and grants immortality at His return, believers can face the grave unafraid, resting in His resurrection promise.

    Are you afraid of death? Afraid of that inevitable, inescapable moment when you and death will finally meet face-to-face? An Appointment in Samara An old Middle-Eastern tale still rings true. In bustling Baghdad, a merchant sent his servant to the marketplace. But the man soon returned, ashen ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 57 views

    True worship happens when our hearts and minds align with God’s truth, allowing authentic praise regardless of our changing feelings or circumstances.

    Friends, pull up a chair and take a deep breath. Some of us walked in today with hearts humming like a racing engine, others with batteries barely blinking. Some of us feel God’s nearness; others wonder if our prayers are bouncing off the ceiling. Can I encourage you? You are not here by accident. ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 17 views

    Jesus knows our suffering, calls us to courageous faithfulness amid trials, and promises eternal life to those who endure with Him.

    Some of us walked in today with hearts that feel threadbare. Bills stack up. Doctors call back. Friends pull away. Tears fall in the dark, and worries pace the floor at 3 a.m. You wonder, Does Jesus see this? Does He know my name? Does He care about my pain? Smyrna asked the same questions. They ...read more

    Jesus offers true rest and mercy, reminding us that God’s compassion outweighs rigid rules and that Sabbath is a gift meant to restore weary souls.

    Good morning, dear friends. Some weeks feel like a blur of alarms, appointments, and a to-do list that never seems to take a breath.

    Jesus sees and loves His church, calls us to repent from compromise, and urges us to hold fast to Him with hope and faithfulness.

    Friends, gather your hearts. The Lord of the church has written us a letter. Not a postcard from far away, but a message pressed with nail-scarred love, addressed to people He knows by name. He sees the late-night prayers and the early-morning faithfulness. He hears the sighs nobody else hears. And ...read more

     | 41 views

    True life is found not in achievements or busyness, but in personally knowing God through Jesus, who invites us into a deep, transforming relationship with Him.

    Some of us walked in today with hearts that feel hurried and hands that feel full. Calendars cram our days, and yet our souls can still feel thin. In the middle of all that noise, Jesus gives us a sentence that settles the storm and steadies the soul. He prays for us. He speaks about life—real ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 38 views

    The sermon urges believers to courageously and openly share their faith in Jesus, trusting His strength, even when it feels difficult or uncomfortable.

    There’s a hush that can fall over a room when the name of Jesus is mentioned. Have you felt it? In a breakroom, at a family table, on a sideline—your heart lifts to speak and then, suddenly, your mouth feels dry. You care for the people around you. You don’t want to cause friction. You wonder if ...read more

     | 28 views

    We are deeply flawed yet deeply loved; God’s law reveals our need, and only Christ’s grace can heal and restore us.

    If you walked in today feeling a little weary, worried, or worn-out, you’re in good company. We bring our Mondays and our midnights, our sighs and our secrets, into the same sanctuary. Some of us carry guilt that nags like a dull ache. Others carry questions that won’t sit down. And a few of us ...read more

     | 34 views

    God’s power and presence remain active today, inviting us to trust Him in hardship, pray boldly, and expect miracles even in ordinary moments.

    Some days faith feels thin as fog. You stand at the kitchen sink with a coffee cup and a knot in your stomach. You sit in the waiting room and study the floor tile as if it could talk back. You lie awake and watch the red glow of the clock turn minutes into miles. In moments like these, we need ...read more
