    Growing Larger Through Outreach (Pt. 2) Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Mar 2, 2015
     | 5,728 views

    In this sermon, we examine six different approaches to evangelism and how to be engaged in them. (Much from this sermon comes from Hybils’ Becoming A Contagious Christian, chapter 9)

    Introduction: A. One day a five-year old boy ran to answer the telephone, and answering it said, “Hello.” 1. A woman asked him, “Is your mother home?” 2. “Yes,” the boy replied, “but she’s changing the baby’s diaper and can’t come to the ...read more

    Problems With Oneness Theology Series

    Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 16, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,592 views

    Oneness theology denies the Trinity doctrine and claims that there is one person in the Godhead who has manifested himself in three different forms: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Is this belief true?

    OVERVIEW OF THE TRINITY The Trinity is one of the foundational doctrines of Christianity. The Trinity is the teaching that there is one God who exists in three distinct, concurrent, persons. Please note, though, this is not saying there are three competing and separate gods (polytheism). The ...read more

    Pharisee Or Holiness?

    Contributed by Craig Benner on Oct 22, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,683 views

    There are many who would argue that a Pharisee and one who believes in holiness are one in the same. I beg to differ. True holiness affects the external and the internal. It affects the acts and the attitude.

    Are you a Pharisee or are you Holiness? Let us see if there is a difference and determine to understand why some people have trouble differentiating between the two. Pharisee = a person in the role of religious service who believes that his or her title and/or office automatically make him or her ...read more

     | 10,393 views

    Using Paul's words in a different way... to talk about fighting a good fight (argument) with family and how you can preserve the family.. because we do have fights!!

    Fighting the Good Fight 2 Timothy 4:7-8 I have fought a good fight, I have finished the race, and I have remained faithful. 8 And now the prize awaits me— And the prize is not just for me...

    based on 10 ratings
     | 16,682 views

    Let us view the Christmas story through a much different lens this year as we discover the powerful impact on humanity when Jesus was born. It was indeed a series of unlikely events!

    CHRISTmas: A Series of Unlikely Events! Intro: John Lennon once said of his group the Beetles that “We are more popular than Jesus”. While it may be true that the Beetles were or even are more popular than Jesus, what is not true is that the Beetles were not nor are better known than Jesus. ...read more

    Is There A Barabbas In The House?

    Contributed by Craig Benner on Mar 27, 2013
     | 10,248 views

    Thank God for Jesus. He graciously took my place on the tree of Calvary. I am no different than Barabbas. I deserved to die, but Jesus took my place.

    Mark 15:1-15 Is there a Barabbas in the house? If we are honest, our hand would be high in the air. IL.: An overly ambitous attorney made a phone call to the governor in the middle of the night.

    Wait On God Series

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Aug 14, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 15,293 views

    Wait on God. His timetable is not always the same as ours. His ways are different from ours. God's concern is not in bringing us to a destination but in transforming us into the likeness of His Son.

    Now that Saul the King has died, we would expect a smooth transition and David to be made King, as God has so promised. • Since this has been God’s plan all along, we thought everything would be neat and tidy. But it’s not going to be so. • God can work in ways that are ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 9,347 views

    The episode of Dinah reveals the clash of two distinct cultures. Their different world-views, especially about sex, reflect the growing gap today between Christian culture and secular culture.

    Genesis 34:1-31 Clash of Cultures 9/11/16 D. Marion Clark Introduction James Boice, in his sermon series through Genesis, introduces our chapter by noting the difficulty of the subject matter.

    Testing God is the recurring theme as the psalmist recounts the waywardness of the Israelites. Three times it is mentioned, each time presenting insight into the different perspectives between them and God about their relationship.

    Psalm 78:17-20, 40-41, 56-58 Testing God 12/27/09 D. Marion Clark Introduction You are familiar with the temptations of Jesus in the wilderness.

     | 10,693 views

    The Spirit filled walk with Christ will make a practical difference here and now. It will mean that we are caring about others. It will lead us to sharing our resources and doing good to all.

    In Galatians chapter 5 there has been an emphasis on freedom in Christ, commitment to love and Walking in the Holy Spirit. These are more than just high falutin theories, but are meant to be worked out in practical ways. The Spirit filled walk with Christ will make a practical difference here and ...read more

    Jesus enters Jerusalem on that first Palm Sunday, riding on a donkey, symbol of humility and peace. Jesus as the true Messiah-King is different than all would-be Messiahs and Kings.

    Palm/Passion Sunday Yr C, 20/03/2016 Lk 19:28-40 Rev. Garth Wehrfritz-Hanson “Jesus the Messiah-King” The first hymn that we sang today, “All glory, laud, and honour, to you, Redeemer King,” is a favourite one for Palm Sunday. Christians sing the hymn around the world on ...read more

    Going For Life Change

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Oct 13, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,390 views

    The Pharisees did not experience life change because they had a different belief. Don't replace the relationship with a religion. Don't make the outward more important than the inward.

    RECAP – John 20:24-28. We saw last week how Thomas finally saw Jesus alive and uttered the most profound statement of faith – “My Lord and My God!” (1) LET GO of our Agenda – don’t cling on to the demands we set. (2) CHOOSE to have faith - faith is a choice ...read more
