    Sermon # 12 - The Way Of The Cross Part 1 - Dealing With Loneliness Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Apr 9, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 290 views

    There are so many people who are lonely because of various reasons. Jesus the Son of God, experienced loneliness and desertion too. Jesus died in our place to reconcile us back to God and has promised those who trust in Him that He will be with us from now to eternity, so we never need be alone.

    We read in Mark 14:50, “And they all left Him and fled.” These messages for the next two or three weeks will focus on the way of the cross that Jesus had to undergo. As the time drew near for Jesus to be crucified, He faced some of the loneliest moments, when all of His disciples deserted Him, ...read more

    From Death To Life Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Oct 28, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 12,923 views

    There's a repetitive theme in Scripture: heroes and heroines of the Bible seemingly all go through the process of being given a vision by God, followed by the death of that vision, and ultimately the rebirth of that vision. How did that pattern apply to Jesus and how does it apply to us?

    I have made the statement over the past several weeks during this sermon series that the last words of a person are important words. I believe that as a person is nearing death, their final words are carefully chosen, deliberate and spoken for a specific purpose.

    At one point of our lives, Jesus came by and we heard His call to follow Him.We responded and followed Him. But it did not end there –Jesus had a plan, just like to these four disciples we have in our text, a very wonderful plan to make us “fishers of men

    Theme: Fishers of Men Text: Mark 1: 16-20 INTRODUCTION: A.

    How To Find The Good Shepherd Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Jun 8, 2021
     | 3,543 views

    The world is a very dangerous place spiritually, full of wolves that come to us in sheep's clothing, evil shepherds masquerading as good shepherds. How do we find the Good Shepherd? How do we determine the difference between good shepherds and bad? Jesus provides insight in John 10.

    If you’re only casually familiar with the Bible, you might be surprised to find out that one of the major themes of the New Testament is false teachers. Under this general category fall false shepherds, false prophets and false apostles. You see, the Bible claims to be the truth about God and ...read more

    How To Endure To The End Series

     | 7,145 views

    Jesus assured us in the Parable of the Sower that people falling away from the faith would be a regular part of our experience. However, we certainly don't want it to be our personal experience! An oft-ignored & challenging warning tells us how we can prevent that possibility.

    As we have made our way through the book of Hebrews, the single New Testament book devoted to the topic of Christians who are tempted or actually do fall away from the faith, I naturally have been led to sadly contemplate those Christians I have known who have fallen away. These, tragically, were ...read more

    This sermon explores the lessons of faith, trust, and surrender we can learn from Jesus' moment of divine desertion on the cross.

    Good morning, beloved. I am so glad to see each one of you here today. There is something uniquely beautiful about the gathering of God's people in unity and love, and it's a privilege to be part of this congregation.

    Back To Basics

    There are times when a church, however successful, must review the basics: do we love those whom we serve, are we able to love those with whom we disagree, and can we feel sheer, passionate love for Christ Himself?

    Jesus' Final Words (Part 2)

    Contributed by Henry Trocino Jr. on Mar 27, 2017
     | 12,828 views

    In Part 2, we take up the remaining four sayings of Jesus on the cross. We shall study how the gospel writer used the OT background in the death of Christ. It will give us a good grasp of the significance of Jesus’ last words on the cross.

    A Word of Abandonment “‘Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?’ that is, ‘My God, my God, why have you forsaken me’” (Matt. 27:46)? I have heard many eloquent sermons on the “seven sayings.” However, the speakers rarely look into the OT texts that Jesus used in His last seven sayings. Yet how the gospel ...read more
