    Three Strikes But Not Out!

    Contributed by John Bartol on Jan 26, 2013
     | 9,480 views

    Insights into the fall of Simon Peter through his threefold denial of Christ. How God used the crowing of a rooster, the look of Christ and the prayer of Christ to bring Peter back with tears of heartfelt repentance.

    Three Strikes But Not Out. In our Scripture readings we have seen this truth illustrated in the life of Peter, one of Jesus disciples. At the Last Supper, Jesus said to his disciples. “This very night you will all fall away on account of me, for it is written: I will strike the ...read more

    Happily Ever After Series

    Contributed by C. Philip Green on Jul 9, 2013
     | 6,360 views

    If you want to live happily ever after with your spouse, then don’t be looking for loopholes or reasons to split up. Instead, look to the Lord and then look only on your spouse. It's more important to BE the right person than to marry the right person.

    Ralph and Janice were celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary, and Pastor Jones decided to take advantage of their longevity by using their story as a sermon illustration. He asked Ralph to come on stage and share some insight into how he managed to live with the same woman all those ...read more

    A Chip Off The Old Block Series

    Contributed by Troy Borst on Aug 27, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,684 views

    Today as we look at Matthew 3:16-17, we will find that these verses describe Jesus Christ as a “chip off the old block” and these two small verses have much to say to us about Jesus Christ.

    A CHIP OFF THE OLD BLOCK MATTHEW 3:16-17 INTRODUCTION… 3:16s Thus Far (p) We have been on a journey since July as we have been looking at various 3:16s in the Bible: Exodus 3:13-17 shared with us the Name of God and that we can trust Him. Joshua 3:1-17 shows us that God makes a way in our ...read more

    Christmas According To Luke Series

    Contributed by Brian Bill on Dec 20, 2014
    based on 3 ratings
     | 11,842 views

    In a logical and well-researched manuscript, Luke helps the skeptical and scientific know that the account of Jesus is fully trustworthy. We can learn from the shepherds as we develop awe, accept the message, and act on it.

    Christmas According to Luke Luke 2:8-20 Rev. Brian Bill December 20-21, 2014 Bridge from “Still He Came” We wander and we’re accustomed to darkness, blinded by our own sins as we turn our backs on you. And yet, Jesus you still came…for us. And so here’s a ...read more

    Augustine said, "Our hearts are restless, O God, until they find their rest in Thee." "For he will rescue you from every trap and protect you from deadly disease."

    The COVID-19 virus has spread from Asia to Europe and North America rapidly over the week, bringing with it a level of panic and anxiety—over 200 countries and territories around the world, from the supermarket to the stock market to the palace to the prison—not seen such a terror and fear in the ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,515 views

    Since everyone is made in the image of God, everyone is important to God.

    As we celebrate God’s creative work in the womb this weekend, we affirm this truth: Since everyone is made in the image of God, everyone is important to God. God has a special place in his heart for children. This week I was deeply saddened and sickened even, to hear about an “After School Satan ...read more

    Witness Protection Program Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Aug 2, 2024
     | 1,192 views

    Jesus offers us 3 witnesses: 1) human testimony, 2) the very things Jesus is doing, and lastly, 3) the Scriptures themselves. If you’re wondering if it’s crazy to believe Jesus is God, the same kinds of evidence they had is the same kind of evidence you have.

    When your world is in chaos, do you think life is random? When your world is a snow globe shaken in every direction, do you feel as if there is no one who is in control? In the midst of chaos, Jesus steps forward to say, “I’ve got this.” We begin a series entitled “This Is Your Captain Speaking.” ...read more

    God is in control of your life, my friend. All that you have is a gift of God. Your parents, your family, your marriage, your money, and your breath are all gifts from above.

    At the conclusion of today’s message, you will be invited to respond to Jesus’ offer of a clean, fresh start. You can respond by going to the Encourager’s Room, a virtual room, or the altar.

    The Portrait Of A Godly Father

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jun 18, 2022
     | 3,599 views

    When we consider Jesus’ audience, there is a much deeper truth. Jesus shows the sinners, publicans, scribes and the pharisees what God is really like and he paints a picture of a Godly Father.

    Sermon: The Portrait of a Godly Father Text: Luke 15: 1-24 1 Tax collectors and other notorious sinners often came to listen to Jesus teach. 2 This made the Pharisees and teachers of religious law complain that he was associating with such sinful people—even eating with them! 3 So Jesus told them ...read more

    Faith And Fealty Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Dec 1, 2025
     | 158 views

    As the disciples as Jesus to increase their faith, Jesus urges that faith is more a matter of quality than quantity. Our ultimate responsibility is faithful obedience.

    Faith is an interesting issue. Over the years, I’ve heard stories of people who seemed to demonstrate great faith as they recounted the ways that God has answered prayer. One such person was George Mueller. He lived from 1805-1898. In an era when people would pay “pew rents” in order to have ...read more

    The destruction of sin upon the life of faith

    The Spiritual Decline of the Spiritually Inclined Genesis 19:1-38 Introduction Chapter nineteen of the book of Genesis is an interesting chapter to say the least.

    based on 3 ratings
     | 80 views

    This sermon calls us to honest, wholehearted living before God, trusting His grace to free us from pretense and form a sincere, holy community.

    Friends, some stories hush a room. They slip in like a soft wind and stir the curtains of the soul. Acts 5 is one of those stories. It starts with open hands and generous hearts in the early church, and then a sudden stillness falls. Have you ever smiled on the outside while your soul flinched ...read more

    A CEO has taken on a new job, and the outgoing CEO says to him, “Sometimes you'll make wrong choices. You will. You'll mess up. When that happens, I have prepared three envelopes for you.

     | 101 views

    God’s grace meets us in our brokenness, offering forgiveness and restoration through Christ, no matter how far we’ve fallen or how flawed we feel.

    Some of us walked in today carrying a quiet ache. Maybe it’s a memory that won’t loosen its grip. Maybe it’s a habit that keeps hollering our name. Maybe it’s the nagging sense that we should be further along than we are. If that’s you, you’ve come to the right place. Not a museum for the perfect, ...read more

    The generation of today may be defined as "The Angry Generation." One of the most destructive emotions that we all face is anger. Pastor Dunn leads us in this study as we observe the life of King Saul and his hatred of David that started out as a small
