    Discovering the Reality of Life from Dorothy and her friends

    “Now it happened, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much profit by fortune-telling. This girl followed Paul and us, and cried out, saying, "These men are the servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us the way ...read more

    Do you ever get into a situation where you are trying to follow God’s will but things just don’t seem to work out? If so, you are in good company. Find out how the Lord used a pinball to guide Paul, and you!

    We’d love to get an email from God with our day all planned out but it doesn’t work that way. And so we seek God and move forward—only to run into road blocks and rivers and dead ends. So what gives? Does the fact that things don’t work out perfectly mean we don’t hear God or are somehow not ...read more

    This continues in my series of expository messages through the book of Acts.

    What do you do when God says, “NO”? When you pray all the right prayers with all the right motives, as best you can tell? When you are certain you’re following the right direction, only to find the way blocked? When you feel certain that what you want is what God would want, only to find out ...read more

    This continues in my expository series through the book of Acts.

    I’m old enough to remember the 1973 debut of “The Exorcist”, starring Linda Blair as a demon-possessed girl delivered from her haunting by a pair of priests. The film earned 10 Academy Award nominations, and the image of the possessed girl with her head turned backwards on her body has undoubtedly ...read more

    Marks of an Effective Christ-Follower Acts 16:1-12 Intro: The world today is confused about what it means to be a Christian.

    Last week during the Senior Recognition, one of our seniors mentioned her favorite verse was Matthew 19:26b; “for God everything is possible.” No matter where you go, or no matter what your station in life maybe.

    The Jailer

    The jailer’s decision was not any easy one. But despite the difficulties that lay ahead, he realized that the God who would bring him to those difficulties would also bring him through them.

    Jobs were hard to come by. He was a grown man, with a wife and children to provide for. He had been an OK farmer when they lived in the country — even managed to put away a little money for them to live on after the move to the big city. But he had no marketable skills to speak of. He wasn’t ...read more

    The story of Lydia gives us direction for the new believer.

    She was a successful business woman, actually she was a successful business owner and that was virtually unheard of in the time and society she lived in. Remember this was 2000 years ago in a culture that was slightly male centered; actually it was very male centered. Females weren’t exactly ...read more

    God-Given Dreams (Mother's Day)

    Contributed by Chris Surber on May 12, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,112 views

    Of all of the dreams that God has given to women it occurs to me that probably no other dream is of a higher nature than that of being a mother. A mother’s love for her children is, at times, nothing short of astonishing.

    “God-Given Dreams” Acts 16:9-15 Introduction To laugh is to risk appearing the fool. To weep is to risk appearing sentimental. To reach out for another is to risk involvement. To expose feelings is to risk exposing our true self; to place your ideas, your dreams, before the crowd is to risk ...read more
