    The God Of Great Turnarounds Series

    Contributed by Duane Wente on May 22, 2023
     | 2,390 views

    The story of Esther and Mordecai is full of plot twists, unexpected outcomes, and surprise endings, all reminding us that we serve a God of great turnarounds. Do we have “Hamans” in our lives? From the story of Esther and Mordecai we can draw encouragement for our lives today.

    Introduction Video Ill.: The Story of Esther - Second Look Films (segment 4) We are continuing our study today based loosely on Max Lucado’s book, You Were Made for This Moment. When we started, we saw that Esther and Mordecai just wanted to blend in — to be cosy in the Persian culture. Don’t ...read more

     | 2,028 views

    Christ came to make His Father known. Mankind was created to worship. If God is not clearly revealed, man will create something to worship. We are called to reveal the Unknown God to the world!

    Sermon – Paul’s Revelation of the Unknown God Scripture Lesson-Acts 17:16-33 “While Paul was waiting for them in Athens, he was deeply troubled by all the idols he saw everywhere in the city. 17 He went to the synagogue to reason with the Jews and the God-fearing Gentiles, and he spoke daily in the ...read more

     | 2,038 views

While there he tried to share the Gospel with as many as he could. 1 The Dialogue in the Agora or market place Text, Acts 17:16-21, KJV: 16 Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit ...read more

    No Life On Mars

    Contributed by John Gaston on Feb 1, 2023
     | 2,154 views

    When Paul went to "Mars" Hill in Athens he found no spiritual life there. Though Greece had made a great contribution to the world's philosophy and thought, it's offering for salvation was empty. But there was life on Mars when Paul left!

    NO LIFE ON MARS Acts 17:22-31 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Today I was at the hospital with someone and they remarked how that when they went in for surgery last time, the doctor drew a big picture on their side so he wouldn’t operate on the wrong side. With all that education, you'd wonder how ...read more

    Since the gospel is the POWER of God unto salvation, we can PROCLAIM it to any audience, knowing God’s PURPOSE will be fulfilled.

    Babbling For Jesus Acts 17:16-34 Turn to Acts 17 in your Bible. I'm going to be preaching a message I've entitled "Babbling For Jesus." I heard about a preacher's son that asked his dad, "Dad, what's the highest number you've ever counted to?" The preacher ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 10,643 views

    Paul talked a lot about his faith and his Jesus because he knew who his God was. And what Paul did is something you and I can do... if we know God the way he did. What did Paul know about God that we sometimes don't?

    A farmer decided he knew as much as any doctor, so he opened doctor’s office in town. He charged $500 a visit, but he promised that if he couldn’t cure you he’d give you $1,000. The town’s regular doctor was offended by that and decided to expose him as a fraud, so He went to the farmer’s office ...read more

    When We Are At The Point Of Death – The Christian Perspective Series

     | 1,802 views

    While the Rapture is delayed everyone must reach the gates of death. What are those last days, hours, minutes like? We look at that, and questions around death. For Christians, the Lord Jesus provides the road through death into His presence FOREVER MORE.

    WHEN WE ARE AT THE POINT OF DEATH – THE CHRISTIAN PERSPECTIVE [1]. THE INTRODUCTION – THOUGHTS NEARING DEATH I would estimate very few want to face death, but for the committed Christians, they are prepared and happy to, because they know the truth of the verses - {{2Corinthians 5:7-8 “for we ...read more

    Do You Really Know God?

    Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Nov 8, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,666 views

    Many people in the world today know ABOUT God, but don't really KNOW Him personally. Most people when they say they know God, mean they've heard of Him and about Him. But don't really know Him. My question to you today is, "Do YOU REALLY know God?"

    We live in a self-important society. We take personality tests. We use social media to broadcast what is on our mind. We hear slogans that tell us we’re due something or we deserve a reward. But, in order to live in such a way that God is most glorified, we must pursue a greater knowledge of Him. ...read more

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Jun 5, 2022
     | 1,454 views

    This topic has fascinated many – even in the 1st century. But, know this: fascination is not what God is after from you and I. What God wants from us is understanding -- which leads to submitting to Him and being prepared for the day Jesus returns!

    The focus of this sermon is Paul's observational skills and how Christians can also practice observing people and culture in a way that helps us connect them to the Gospel and lead them back to God.

    Sermon Date 11-09-2014 Areopagus (Chuck Gohn) How many of you detest waiting in line for anything? I hate waiting in line. I hate waiting in grocery lines. I hate waiting on the telephone.

    The Problem With Racism Series

     | 1,314 views

    During the days after the Civil War up thru the 1960s, there were many "Christians" in the U.S. who embraced bigotry and mistreated the black people around them. Why would supposed Christians do that, and how do we protect ourselves from that kind of evil?

    Martin Luther King Jr. Day was last Monday (1/20/25). He once said: “The time is always right to do what is right.” Today, our sermon is going to be on racism, not because I think any of us are racist - but because, as Christians, we need to know what the Bible says about it. Martin Luther ...read more
