The Anatomy Of A Testimony

Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Jan 8, 2024

If you are a Christian, your testimony — the story of how God stepped in and changed you through His Son — is a direct reflection of the undisputable, life-changing power of the gospel. It’s one of the most effective tools in our evangelism toolbox.

TITLE: THE ANATOMY OF A TESTIMONY SCRIPTURE: GALATIANS 6:10-17 When God began to reveal Himself to the world, He did not send down bookshelves filled with outlines – theologies – lectures - he began with a story.

Preparing To Meet The Master Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Aug 6, 2020

Much had changed since Naomi and Ruth left Moab for Bethlehem. Ruth had found favor in the eyes of Boaz, but yet she lacked security for the future. She made preparations for a meeting that would change her future.

Preparing to Meet the Master Ruth 3:1-6 We can’t begin to imagine the excitement Ruth and Naomi must’ve felt at this time. Moab had dealt very bitterly with them, leaving little hope for the future. Upon returning to Bethlehem, God had shown Himself mighty in their situation and was ...read more

What Difference Has Jesus Made In Your Life?

Contributed by Glenn Newton on Dec 17, 2016

When Christ came to Earth, He changed the world. When He comes into our lives, our lives are transformed. The Christmas message is that a huge change has taken place because the King has taken his place.

Stuck In A Place Called Troas

Contributed by Bright Adeyeye on Mar 4, 2020

At Troas something remarkable happened to Apostle Paul that will change the course of the early church history.

STUCK IN A PLACE CALLED TROAS "6 Now when they had gone through Phrygia and the region of Galatia, they were forbidden by the Holy Spirit to preach the word in Asia. 7 After they had come to Mysia, they tried to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit did not permit them. 8 So passing by Mysia, ...read more

Sustaining Grace PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 14, 2025

God’s grace meets us in our weakness, offering love, strength, and acceptance, empowering us to face life’s struggles with hope and courage.

If grace had a face, I think it would be smiling at you today. Not a plastic grin, but the kind that crinkles the eyes and warms the room. The kind you long to see when the week has been heavy, the bank account thin, and your heart even thinner. Maybe you woke up with that familiar knot of worry. ...read more

Pray This Way

Contributed by Charles Scott on Feb 2, 2008

Jesus taught us not only the words to say in prayer, but the manner in which to approach God so that prayer becomes effectual in changing not only our lives but enables Christ through the church to change the world around us.

Matthew 6__5-18 THE WAY TO PRAY In my youth, I was very active in a Church that practiced only extempore prayer. On rare occasion someone might bring a written prayer to a Bible study, but other than the Lord’s Prayer, there was no prayer routinely used in worship, and no one who was a prayer ...read more

How Can I Be A Better Person?

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 9, 2021

You must walk by faith and NOT talk by faith. You demonstrate faith not by what you say but by what you do. Faith shows up in your feet, not just in your feelings.

Like you, I have made so many attempts at improving in areas of my life. I struggle with patience with certain people – someone put a hand over my family’s mouths at this point. If I know anything about anything, I imagine you have your struggles as well. The Bible offers you some weapons of how ...read more

Contributed by Steve Pearman on Mar 17, 2025

This is the last of the series on worry. Today we look at changing or worry habit and focusing on Jesus Christ

Introduction: The Pattern of Worry We’ve had 3 weeks of teaching on the subject of worry. I hope that many of you are now worrying less than you did at the start of the series.

Profit, A Means, Not An End Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 26, 2009

The attitude of a child is the attitude of knowing you are incomplete, and need to grow, to change, to take the risk to be wrong.

September 28, 2009 Caritas in Veritate The emphasis Jesus constantly puts on being childlike puzzled me until I read Carol Dweck’s great book Mindset. A child knows–perhaps without being able to articulate it–that she needs to change, learn and grow. A child knows his own incompleteness. As we ...read more

Is There Evidence That Jesus Christ Is Alive After Death? An Examination Of The Facts

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 10, 2023

For me, it’s obvious that Jesus Christ is alive right now. Because he changed my life forever. He set me free from sins and addictions. He changed my family. My grandpa. My mom. He’s still changing lives everyday in this very city, and across the face of the Earth.

If Jesus is dead then I’m a fraud. If Jesus is dead right now, then we’re all a joke. The atheists would be right. The world would be right. All the good in the world wouldn’t really be good, all the bad wouldn’t really be bad, all our work would be for nothing, and our lives would be truly ...read more

Simeon’s Prayer – Content With Jesus Series

Contributed by Sherm Nichols on Nov 17, 2011

Looking at Simeon's prayer to understand the ability to let go of this life comes from first embracing Jesus. We need to learn to accept that having Jesus is "enough."

Luke 2:25-33 Intro: I’ve read several different versions of monkey traps that are used in different parts of the world – in India, in Africa – a coconut is taken and cleaned out, then, a hole just large enough to let a monkey get his hand inside is cut into it. Some kind of ...read more

Honouring Christ In Family Roles --Headship And Submission Series

Contributed by Gordon Weatherby on Aug 1, 2017

Wisdom PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Sep 24, 2025

The sermon invites us to move beyond surface knowledge, accepting God’s personal invitation to find true fulfillment, nourishment, and life in relationship with Him.

Some of you walked in today with a full calendar and an empty heart. Some came carrying quiet questions that whisper in the night. Others arrived with hope flickering like a candle in a drafty room. Friend, you’re in the right place. Today, Scripture opens the door to a warm kitchen where Wisdom ...read more
