Living With(Out) Regret Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Feb 24, 2022

We all have regrets, things we've done or have had done to us in the past. Paul describes two ways of dealing with these regrets- worldly and godly. Consider these thoughts from our Family Minister Scott Jewell on living without regret.

Our current series is called “What Keeps You Up At Night?” We’ve explored anger/bitterness, concern for family, and today I want to talk about regret. It’s the idea of dealing with our mistakes/sins, whether real or perceived from our past. Personally, the concept takes me back to my ...read more

Whatever Happened To Repentance? Series

Contributed by Doug Fannon on Feb 28, 2022

Contributed by Nnaemeka Durueke on Mar 1, 2022

Ash Wednesday 2020 Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 1, 2022

If God is love, and He certainly is, and if He became human so that we could, when we fall asleep for the last time, be swept up into the awesome beauty, truth, and goodness of the Trinity, then we should keep ourselves ready.

The Restoration Of Sight And The Reception Of Salvation

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 9, 2022

In John 9, we read of the healing and salvation of a poor, blind man who has received not only physical sight, but also spiritual sight to see that Jesus was the Promised One of God. We also witness the deliberate spiritual lack of sight by the religious leaders who rejected the Light of God.

John Newton (1725-1807) was one of the most blasphemous, vile, unscrupulous, cruel, and hateful men who ever made his living by means of the sea. While he had been reared in a goldy home and had been taught the Scriptures by his mother, he walked away from any type of religious faith and for ...read more

Today You Will Be With Me In Paradise Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Mar 13, 2022

Jesus died on a cross between two nameless criminals. We don’t know the names of either one of these men. It is the only time we read about them in the Bible. Three men died that day on a cross. One made the wrong choice, one made the right choice, and One is your only choice.

Jesus hung on the cross for six agonizing hours before succumbing to the torture of crucifixion through asphyxiation. During that time, Jesus made seven statements on the cross that were recorded in the four gospels of the New Testament. Each one of these statements is significant and worthy of ...read more
