Everyday Faith

Contributed by John Reece on Apr 5, 2024

Faith isn’t just this abstract concept floating around in our thoughts. It’s tangible, it’s real, and it’s the foundation of our hope.

Hey, friends! Let’s talk about something that’s as essential to our journey as the air we breathe, yet it’s as mysterious as the unseen paths of the wind. Yep, you guessed it—faith. Now, I’ve been diving into Hebrews, and it hit me like a fresh cup of coffee on a Monday morning: faith is the ...read more

The Bartimaeus Miracle

Contributed by Pastor/Author: Terry Sisney on Feb 16, 2025

In this sermon we are not so focused on what the Bartimaeus miracle was, but how he received it. God is no respect of persons but he is a respect of faith. If we can walk the steps of Bartimaeus we can get our own miracle.

Mark 10:46-52 TLB And so they reached Jericho. Later, as they left town, a great crowd was following. Now it happened that a blind beggar named Bartimaeus (the son of Timaeus) was sitting beside the road as Jesus was going by.

Faith Changes How We React To Our World Series

Contributed by Duane Wente on Apr 25, 2025

Faith that sits still is not the faith Christ calls us. Transformative faith changes how we react to the world around us. True faith wakes us up, renews our minds, and shines as a light for others to see Christ in us.

The Price Is Right

Contributed by Troy Borst on Apr 30, 2025

If Jesus enters your heart this Sabbath morning because you have left the door even slightly ajar, please, please do not chase Him out when you leave church. Take Him home with you. Don’t force Christ to find other quarters because you refuse to pay the mere pittance He asks of you.

THE PRICE IS RIGHT JAMES 1:19-27 #thepriceisright INTRODUCTION I should tell you that up front, the sermon that I will share with you this morning is NOT a sermon that I have written. I write all my own sermons each week, but this one is not mine. This one was written for Cold Spring and South ...read more

A Walk Down The Street With Jesus Series

Contributed by Troy Borst on Jun 2, 2016

We must "walk in the light" each and every day with all the people we meet in all the situations we find ourselves in. If we do not, we make God a liar because we claim to be His (light) and yet walk in darkness.

As we leave the front doors of the church, we find ourselves on a semi-busy street. Manhattan Avenue is a semi-busy street in my book. The sun is shining. There is ...read more
