Arachnophobia For Some – However Spiders Are Wonderful Teachers Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 1, 2022

Nature is a great teacher and by observing God's creatures there is much we can learn for our Christian lives. In this message we examine the habits of spiders to gain insights for our lives. God bless you all.

ARACHNOPHOBIA FOR SOME – HOWEVER SPIDERS ARE WONDERFUL TEACHERS I prepared this about 20 years ago, so when I use “today”, well - it was back then. Here we make applications to Christian living derived from the habits of spiders. This is an address rather than a sermon and prepared for smaller ...read more

Specially Protected Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jul 21, 2021

This is the time for us to take stock of the decisions that we are making every day. Those that can be changed that are not in line with God’s will, need to be set aside immediately.

Their hands will catch you so that you will not hit your foot on a rock.” (ERV) Those who trust in the Lord are guaranteed an extraordinary protection over their lives. The Lord ...read more

Love For The Undeserving Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Feb 4, 2023

Why on earth would God have Hosea marry a prostitute? Was it merely a parable or a dream we're being told about? Or was this a real life harlot who God used for a lesson for Israel?

In 1990, there was a romantic comedy that hit big screen called “Pretty Woman”. It was marketed as a modern update of the story of Cinderella.

Battle Ready: Know Your Enemy - Part One Series

Contributed by Martin Spoelstra on Mar 14, 2023

In order to be prepared for the attacks of the Devil and his demons, we must know more about him. Spiritual warfare has nothing to do with personality, gifting, calling or background. When you signed up to be a Christian, you automatically entered into warfare.

Me – Are we aware of the battle that goes on in the spiritual realm? In every world religion, there is an acknowledgement of a spiritual realm. In every minor religion, there is an acknowledgement of a spiritual realm. Even for those who don’t believe in God, many believe in the supernatural. If ...read more

Lessons From Jeremiah – Part 10 – Two Treacherous Sisters Polluted The Land Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Mar 3, 2024

The heart of God yearned for repentance and Israel's return from idolatry. Israel was carried away in judgement, and Judah did not learn. It was so joined to idolatry that God kept likening it to an adulterous wife He would receive back if the nation repented. Faithless, treacherous Judah.

Two Sets Of Twelve Stones

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 16, 2025

When Joshua led the Israelites across the Jordan, twelve stones were submerged while twelve others stood as a memorial of God’s wonder and grace. What spiritual significance do these stones have for us as believers in the Lord Jesus? Read to find out more.

Experiencing A Life Of Prayer Series

What Does Jesus Want This Christmas?

Contributed by Howard Harden on Dec 12, 2002

Through Mary’s gift, we see an example of what Jesus wants, and does not want from you and me, not just at Christmas, but every day of the year.

I think it’s safe to say that by and large, men need a lot of help in finding that perfect holiday gift. It just isn’t a talent that many men have. Sometimes the hints have to be especially large. Well this morning, I’d like to help all of the men present to discover what will be the perfect gift ...read more
