Memories: Eternity Secured By Jesus Series

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Oct 3, 2007

Anchors For Life

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Oct 6, 2004

Paul was taken on a voyage to Rome as a prisoner. He stood strong in the face of a terrible storm, because he has these anchors: (1) the anchor of God’s presence; (2) of God’s promise; (3) of God’s plan; (4) of God’s power.

Paul and some other prisoners were taken on a voyage towards Rome. We’ll read about his experience in Acts 27:14-26; 33-44. Paul was a prisoner, but in this voyage through the storm, he stood out as a HERO. • Chains bound him, yet he was freed from fear or hopelessness. • The people were ...read more

Peace Through Obedience To The Word

Contributed by Austin Mansfield on Jun 3, 2007

If most people haven’t read God’s word, they aren’t seeing Christ’s command, and there’s nothing in their hearts for the Holy Spirit to help them understand. So the peace that Jesus promises us is lost for the lack of trying.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Jesus says that those who love him will keep his word; and those who don’t love him won’t keep it. Those who keep his word will be filled with the Holy Spirit, who will teach us and guide us according to the will of the ...read more

Seek And You Will Find…great Expectations

Contributed by Craig Condon on Jun 25, 2015

Jesus is the new covenant that God promised to his people in Jeremiah 31:31-34. In Jesus, God united us to him with bonds that can never be broken, and through this new covenant, we and Jesus can look death in the eye and see victory.

Today’s Gospel passage marks the beginning of a change in Jesus’ ministry. The coming of the Greeks is seen as anticipating the coming of the Gentiles into the community of believers.

Calling The Sick To Serve (Hix)

Contributed by Jimmy Haile on Jan 18, 2015

Go! Series

Contributed by Rev. Matthew Parker on Aug 26, 2007

God calls us to go. Into our communities. Into the broken parts of our cities. He promises to go with us and to make us a blessing. To reach the cities for Christ through his highly imperfect church. Improbable? Impossible. Then it must be God!

No More Night

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 28, 2003

We are promised "no more night": no more blind thrashing about, unable to see where our lives are going; no more mistrust; no more incompleteness. Sermon for Remembrance Day, when we celebrate members who have passed away in the previous year.

Several Saturday nights ago I just was not satisfied with my preaching preparation. Somehow the message had not quite gelled, and I knew there were many improvements I needed to make before Sunday morning.
