    We Were Made To Thrive Series

     | 18,011 views

    I would like to thank Pastor Jerry Shirley for sharing. It has been a blessing as well as a great help as I spend my days caring for my dying father. I kept some of the messages to share even after my Father passed way.

    We Were Made to Thrive Acts 20:22-25 Some think being a Christian means living a life as boring as watching paint dry and I’ve known some pretty boring Christians but it’s because they haven’t experienced the Christian life the way God intended it. God never intended for our ...read more

    Characteristics Of A Good Leader

    Contributed by Derek Geldart on Dec 31, 2015
     | 7,924 views

    In his farewell speech Paul advises the leaders at Ephesus how to become good leaders of the flock.

    Imagine after spending nine years in missionary work being asked by God to leave your ministry area to go to a place where persecution and then prison are guaranteed! Instead of being concerned of his own welfare Paul was genuinely concerned for the leaders of the church at Ephesus. He spent ...read more

    Triple Giving Series

    Contributed by Tim Zoltowski on Jan 30, 2016
     | 7,734 views

    A look at giving of your knowledge, your time, and your money for the common good. The message discussed our need to use what we have been given to lift up the Body of Christ. The need to use the gift we have been given in accordance with our faith.

    It is better to give than to receive. That is what Paul quoted Jesus as saying. It is more blessed to give than to receive. Today we will conclude our series on giving by talking about HOW we give. Last week, you’ll remember, that we said if you are in Christ Jesus, the question was not ...read more

    Manner And Message Of Paul

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Feb 1, 2016
     | 6,628 views

    The manner of Paul's life was consistent with the message God had given him to preach. Now Paul is telling these leaders to follow his example (his lifestyle) and hold to the same message. This is something we as Christians must do today.

    Paul told the Ephesian elders that wolves would arise from among the own number. How were they to be able to tell when someone (like an Elder) had become one of the bad guys?

    OPEN: Last week I told you I loved superheroes. And I have done extensive research for this sermon series for years.

    We as stewards of the mysteries of GOD desire to be found faithful. The message of CHRIST is a message of JOY TO THE WORLD. We have been given instruction to share it with the world around us. Take time to pause and reflect on the Joyous message of Salvation through Christ this season.

    From House To House

    Based on a New Testament understanding of a church, and based on the ministry of the early apostles, we learn that believers did not always assemble in a public place of worship. Much of the time they met in one another’s homes.

    This morning I want to address the topic of “doing church.” and I’m going to begin by asking the question, “Where are Christians supposed to assemble together for worship and fellowship?” In Acts 17:24, Paul declared, “God, who made the world and everything in it, since He is Lord of heaven and ...read more

    A song that a lot of churches used to sing a lot, was, “I shall not be moved.”

    The chorus of that song goes like this, “I shall not be, I shall not be moved; I shall not be, I shall not be moved: just like a tree that’s planted by the waters, Lord, I shall not be moved.” But the problem with many of the saints of God singing that song is that they are not like a tree planted ...read more

    In chapter 19 we read where Paul's ministry reached its climax in Ephesus.

    God worked in a marvelous way! New converts actually forsook their former practice of black magic, and in a public burning, they destroyed over $10,000.00 worth of occult scrolls and magic charms, thus openly proclaiming their faith in the Lord Jesus.

    There are so many truths in God's word, let's not get bogged down in sensationalism.

    1. In Acts 20, Paul claimed to preach the whole counsel of God. a. Every truth and doctrine. b. A great statement. 2. In 2 Timothy 4, Paul told Timothy to preach the word of God. a.
