    Murder & Anger Series

    Contributed by Charl Swart on Mar 10, 2016
     | 10,615 views

    Anger is something that can ruin your life. It is the root of murder and should therefore be treated at the root. You should not act on unrighteous anger, but should live in righteousness. Jesus shows us how He filfills the Law of murder.

     | 5,660 views

    A sermon urging a greater commitment to prayer, and ways that can be accomplished.

    I want to fit it in. I want to make sure that prayer is vital in my life. But when? What about all those times I had good intentions and dropped the ball? What about those days where I was well into the day before I remembered that there were people I needed to pray for, items I needed to take ...read more

    Worship in spirit and in truth is always directed to God above everything else. I want for my audience to understand how worship tends to get misdirected, and why that is such a grievous error; to know what worship directed toward God truly is

    Welcome to the stadium! This is now the 3rd week we’re taking a closer look at worship, and we’re doing that in the context of something that most all of us already think about – a stadium – how, just like a big football game, there are a lot of parallels between what you ...read more

    Are You Auto-Correcting God?

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Mar 31, 2016
     | 5,494 views

    Smart phones have an auto-correction function that changes what you type even when you don't want it to. Christians often act like smart phones when they choose to believe something other than what God believes.

    Today we’re going to look at a warning related to altering the gospel. But this message will be just a little different and I hope to present it in such a way that it will cause you to think about it the next time you send a text message from your smart phone. Our society places a great ...read more

     | 4,978 views

    The church at Jerusalem did not immediately admit Paul to their fellowship, because they were afraid of him and thought he was not a disciple, until Barnabas took him to Peter and James, and related his conversion and his boldness in preaching the Gospel

    Our relationships within the body of Christ affect our witness outside the church.

    This week I came across these words that were written by Chris Tomlin in his preface to Francis Chan’s book titled “Crazy Love”: “Isn't it interesting that in Acts 11, at the end of verse 26, it says, "The disciples were called Christians first at Antioch." What I find ...read more

    Be Radical For Jesus! Or Other Radicals Will Fill The Void!

    Contributed by Kelly Durant on Apr 12, 2015
     | 4,204 views

    Too many radical people are rising up and attacking Christians! This is in part due to radical ideals sewn in the 1970s. Communism also plays a role. If we are not radical for Jesus then other radicals will take over.

    Be Radical for Jesus! Or Other Radicals Will Fill The Void! by Kelly Durant Acts 2:44-45 Now all who believed were together, and had all things in common, 45 and sold their possessions and goods, and divided them among all, as anyone had need. 2. The disciples of Jesus were ...read more

    God is pleased with faith

    When we talk about the subject of faith so many do not yet understand faith. Jesus would often say in his Word to have faith in God. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Faith is simply to trust that God is faithful to his promises and what He says is what He ...read more
