The Power And Wisdom Of The Cross - 1 Corinthians 1:18 Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Nov 15, 2024

The cross is central to the Christian faith. Yet, for many, it seems absurd, irrelevant, or offensive. Paul’s declaration in 1 Corinthians 1:18 divides humanity into two groups: those who see the cross as foolishness and those who recognise it as the power of God.

The Power and Wisdom of the Cross - 1 Corinthians 1:18 Key Verse: “The message of the cross is foolish to those who are headed for destruction! But we who are being saved know it is the very power of God.” (1 Corinthians 1:18, NLT) Introduction: Transformed by Truth The cross is central to the ...read more

Nose Prints On The Glass - 1 Peter 1:6 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Nov 27, 2024

The kind of joy Scripture calls us to seems unrealistic, especially in times of sorrow. But human emotion is complex. This message shows the path to supernatural happiness.

1 Peter 1:6 In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. 7 These have come so that your faith--of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire--may be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and ...read more

The Glory Of The Story - 1 Peter 1:10-12 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Nov 29, 2024

Why did the prophets search their own writings? Did they not understand what they wrote? If that's the case, what were they trying to communicate when they wrote it?

The prophets searched Scripture to find out what kind of era it would be when the Messiah would suffer and then be glorified. But they were told that it was not for them to know. We get to participate in this glorious kingdom in the Church (why would a Christian prefer the world to the Church?). ...read more

Sermon On The Ponds Of Life

Contributed by William Meakin on May 23, 2025

The definition of a pond is chronicled as a small body of still water formed naturally or by artificial means.

Francine Rivers, a female American author once remarked: “Life is like a pond, and every decision and act we commit, good or bad, is a pebble flung into it. The ripples spread in widening circles.” Jeremiah 17:8 reminds us: “He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the ...read more

#1 Exclusive Faith Series

Contributed by Norris Harris I on Jan 24, 2003

The issue our text addresses is that it insists that Faith in Jesus Christ Excludes Every Other Option. For the fact of the matter is that, for the most part, we only turn to Jesus when we have ran out of options: He’s usually our last option.

One of the greatest affronts to the majesty of the Master occurs when we ask His help in prayer, and then rely on Something or Someone else in addition. We have this tenacious tendency of using this Jesus/And strategy; Jesus/And… my money, my medicine, my doctor, my parents, my spouse, my friends, ...read more
