Contributed by Bala Samson on Oct 19, 2020

Listen to this, if you do not have the grit and determination to withstand the great, strong wind and still wait to hear God, then you would never get to have the breathtaking experience of hearing the Messiah speak.

Mountain Climbing Without A Veil Series

Contributed by Fr Mund Cargill Thompson on Feb 22, 2020

My friend Nigel (who is not a Christian) once said that that when Christians speak about God, he can feel like a primitive tribesman who suddenly encounters New York City - he just can’t get his head around it. If we want to begin to get our head around God, what one thing should we do more of?

Moses climbs up Mount Sinai - up THAT mountain- and disappears into the cloud at the top, the cloud that somehow represents the presence of God.

Elijah's Crisis

Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Dec 1, 2020

The pandemic seems to go on forever. Instead of getting better, Covid is getting worse. Many are becoming discouraged and depressed because of lockdowns and other guidelines that give us limited mobility.

Note: I developed a simple set of homemade PowerPoint slides that I used in presenting this sermon. They're not fancy or professional quality, and for this sermon there were only as small number of slides (most of which are maps), but if you're interested in having the PowerPoint file I ...read more

Seared Beef Or Sacred Cows

Contributed by Craig Benner on Dec 27, 2020

I am sure that we have all heard the term "sacred cows". How does a christian respond to such a situation? Is there a biblical answer? I believe that there is, so let us dive into this sermon.

Sacred Cows and Seared Beef CALF WORSHIP A heathen (notably Egyptian and Canaanite) practice, in which statues of bull calves were worshipped as symbols of fertility and physical strength.

Burn The Ships!

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Dec 28, 2020

Are you ready to leave 2020 behind for good? As much as we'd like to cut COVID off and put it behind us, we won't be able to quite yet. But there are other things that we can break free from. But if we're going to do it the right way we'll need to burn the ships.

BURN THE SHIPS As we get ready to go into 2021, I'm sure everyone is ready to leave 2020 behind for good. Unfortunately, 2021 doesn't look like it's going to be much of a fresh start; we're still dealing with COVID in a major way. So it looks like we won't be able to get rid of ...read more

The Still Small Voice

Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 1, 2017

What do you do when you've lost your vision, your passion, and your walk with God? Elijah got there and went back to where he knew he could find God. He found God and got back all he'd lost, at the same cave Moses saw God's glory!

THE STILL SMALL VOICE 1 Kgs. 19:1-18 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. I’ve found that it pays to get along with your wife. As an example of this, a man was tired of living with his wife. 2.
