    Modern Day Miracles, Do They Happen As You May Think They Should?

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Jul 6, 2025
     | 225 views

    We read of Jesus, and his disciples too, performing great miracles, and so, after studying Christianity for years, you would think that there would come a point … where we should be equipped to perform some kind of miracle … and we do not, so why?

    “Please join me in my prayer.” Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of our hearts, be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, our strength, and our redeemer. Amen. (Ps. 19:14). Introduction: Although this morning’s gospel reading is very familiar, if we look closely, it is a reading that we ...read more

    Parables Of The Kingdom – The First - The Sower Or Rather The Soil – Part 2 Of 5 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jul 31, 2025
     | 193 views

    We continue with an examination of the parable of the Sower and look at the seed that fell on the hard, barren pathways and beside the road. What are the birds of the air? How does the devil snatch away the sown word? This is a very instructive parable.

    PARABLES OF THE KINGDOM – THE FIRST - THE SOWER OR RATHER THE SOIL – Part 2 of 5 In the first message of the Parable of the Sower, we studied the introduction to the 7 Parables of the Kingdom from Matthew’s Gospel chapter 13.

     | 353 views

    Three stories show us ways that the disciples misunderstood the nature of the Kingdom and how Jesus pointed them in the right direction.

We have the Transfiguration - an amazing event. We have an exorcism so difficult that the disciples couldn’t do it - an ...read more

    Based on the prophet Habakkuk's journey from honest complaint to unshakable praise, this sermon explores how faith can find joy not by denying suffering, but by making a radical choice to rejoice in God even when everything has fallen apart.

    Levi, also called Matthew, was a publican who collected Roman taxes from the Jews. One day Jesus came by Matthew's tax-collection site and said two simple words, "Follow Me". Levi did just that!

    Introduction — From Saved to Shaped When we first meet Jesus, faith saves us. But when we keep walking with Him, faith begins to shape us. The same grace that opens the door of salvation now wants to renovate the house. God never intended faith to be a momentary flash of belief — He designed it ...read more
