Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Apr 22, 2025

How do we handle our enemies? Let's begin in 1 Samuel 26.

Paul's Authority (Galatians 1)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Apr 16, 2024

From where did Paul get his authority? What about independent preachers today? Let's look at Galatians 1.

Who was Paul? Why did Peter recognize his authority? Did he contradict or complement the teachings of Jesus about the law? Is there a difference between physical and spiritual circumcision?

Exodus 8:1 - 11:10 The Plagues

Contributed by Carl Willis on Apr 18, 2024

This story isn't really about Moses, it's not really about the Israelites, and it's not really about the Egyptians; it's about God revealing himself to men and it's about God dealing with the condition of men's hearts.

We are in Exodus chapter 8 this morning, and we're actually going to go through chapter 11, so you'll want to order a pizza. I'll try to get any of you out of here by five o'clock this evening; it's going to be a long one. Alright, now we'll try and keep it short, but what ...read more

Exodus 4:1-17 Equipped For The Call

Contributed by Carl Willis on Apr 21, 2024

God has called Moses to deliver His people. Now God equips Moses with everything he will need to fulfill the calling on his life.

To make the fourth chapter of Exodus more understandable, we need to backtrack and understand the backstory. In most great stories, there's a backstory, and once you're clear on that, everything else makes more sense. So, if you would turn with me to Exodus chapter 3, we're going to ...read more

The Unforgettable Perfume - Mark 14:1-8 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Apr 27, 2024

Is it really a good thing for this woman to spend a whole year’s wages on a single, momentary act of worship? And if so, why perfume? Wouldn’t there be some more practical gifts that could be given with that amount of money?

Mark 14:1 Now the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread were only two days away, and the chief priests and the teachers of the law were looking for some sly way to arrest Jesus and kill him. 2 "But not during the Feast," they said, "or the people may riot." 3 While he was ...read more

Part 1: The Hidden God (Deus Absconditus) Series

Contributed by Rev Emmanuel O. Adejugbe on Jan 20, 2026

Where is God when prayers go unanswered and suffering remains? This sermon walks through Job 23 to reveal what God is doing when He seems absent.

There is a particular kind of loneliness that comes not from isolation, but from silence in the midst of relationship. A spouse who refuses to speak. A parent who withholds explanation. A trusted friend who goes quiet when you need them most. And perhaps most troubling of all, a God who seems ...read more
