    “BIG THINGS POPPIN…LITTLE THINGS STOPPIN” Proverbs 1:7-19 One of the best ways to show love for our children is to set strong guidelines for them.

    “Are We Listening?” Luke 9:28-36 “Are you listening?” a mother asks her child.

     | 16,412 views

    God, though He is a god of wrath, also gives Himself permission to start over with us; we ought to take a cue from that and give ourselves permission to start over in our relationship with Him.

    Did you ever start something and then find that it was going so badly, it was such a mess, you just wished you could just start all over again? You started down some path, you knew it was a mistake, but you got so invested in it you felt you had to see it through, even though it was getting worse ...read more

    We Are Made Righteous By Faith (Second Sunday Of Lent, March 5, 2023)

     | 2,124 views

    How would you like to take a test that had a different rule for success? Instead of so many points for an “A”, so many for a “B” and so on, the success of the test would be based on an “all or nothing rule”. So you would have to get a 100% to pass on every test every single day.

    A sermon preached on Operation Andrew Sunday.

    There are some things you just have to come and see to really appreciate.

    The way in which we remember those who have gone before us can either empower us or it can disempower us. The way in which we grieve for those we have loved and lost can either enable us to greater things, or it can disable us and hold us back. It all depends on what we do with the judgment that ...read more

    There is something we say to console ourselves when someone dies. It is a phrase I have heard over and over.

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Apr 1, 2021
     | 3,711 views

    John 20 records Mary Magdalene's journeys to the tomb where the body of Jesus was placed. She was the first person to see and speak with the Risen Lord Jesus, and showed Him her undying love.

    Introduction: Mary Magdalene was one of the women who followed Jesus during His earthly ministry. Jesus had cast seven demons out of her at an earlier time (Luke 7-8:2) so no doubt she would be grateful for that miracle. She was there when the Lord’s body was laid in the tomb (Mark 15:40-47) and ...read more
