    Our Anchor Of Hope

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 15, 2022

     | 3,095 views

    Because of Jesus, we are able to go behind the veil to experience the grace of the Father. Jesus is our High Priest who goes before us, pulling us ahead like an anchor on a motor launch into the safety of the bay of heaven.

    Today’s message is entitled “Our Anchor of Hope,” and I would like to open with an illustration. A naval officer from World War II once described how the battleships he was on survived terrible hurricanes in Chesapeake Bay. When storms or turbulent seas threatened a ship that was docked in ...read more

    Postmodernity has given birth to the idea that all spiritual views are simply different roads that lead to God. We have created a confusing web of “spiritual paths” for those on a quest to know God. John gives a process for gaining and maintaining our bearings while on our spiritual journey.

    As James continues to provide wisdom to exiles, he begins to discuss our interactions with other people - especially our reactions.

    Today, as we return to our study in the book of James, we are confronted with some helpful and convicting words that relate to how we interact with other people and even respond to sticky situations. Even as he presents this information - James does so with a specific outcome in mind: James ...read more

    The prophets in the Old Testament, the Psalmist and John the Revelator tell the story of the day of the Lord. The day of the Lord will be the time, Christ return to judge the world and consummate all things.

    Sermon: The Day of the Lord Will Come Luke 17:26-37 “When the Son of Man returns, it will be like it was in Noah’s day. In those days, the people enjoyed banquets and parties and weddings right up to the time Noah entered his boat, and the flood came and destroyed them all. “And the world will be ...read more

    "Christmas Is For-Giving”

     | 945 views

    We need to forgive for our own health and wellbeing. Like thanksgiving, forgiveness is one of the healthiest things we can do. Medical science has found that unforgiveness upsets our body’s chemical makeup taking us from heights of euphoria to depths of depression.

    The Giving of Christmas “Christmas is For-Giving” Watch on YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvb6if8Lh9Q Last week we looked at the first giving of Christmas, which was “Thanks-Giving,” and that’s because even the holiday of Thanksgiving comes before Christmas.

    Sermon $ 42 - God Of Restoration Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 1, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,491 views

    God specializes in restoring those who are lost and gone away from Him. Everyone needs to be in the place God has assigned for us, for only there are we assured of God’s protection, privilege and we will also find our true worth.

    We read in Luke 15:20, “And he rose up and went to his own father. But while he was yet a long way off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and ran, and fell upon his neck, and covered him with kisses.” (Darby) We meditated a little on this passage in the last sermon, considering ...read more

    Judge Not, But Discern Wisely Series

    Jesus warned about the problems associated with criticizing others, and of the need to do some spiritual self-examination before passing judgement. He then said that we need to use discernment when dealing with some people.

    This morning, we are going to look at the problem of judging others. The definition for the word “judge” that applies to our passage means, “to form a judgment or opinion” and to “decide upon critically.”(1) The key word here is “critically,” for when we judge others we are often being “critical” ...read more

    Time To Engage: "Following Hard After God”

    based on 2 ratings
     | 931 views

    The impulse to follow God originates with God, but it’s our responsibility to follow. We are told throughout the Bible that we’re to seek the Lord. As we purpose to follow hard after God, He upholds and strengthens us as seen in the Psalmist description of a deer in search for water.

In fact, God even said it isn’t. In fact,  He said it was downright easy, which is something ...read more

    The Road To Rest

    Contributed by Terry Hovey on Feb 19, 2025
     | 595 views

    Jesus calls us to come and rest in Him. That word "Come" is a call to all who are weary and heavy-laden to come to Him. It's a compound word that means "here" and "come"--so, Jesus is giving His call to "Come here", to "Come here to Me!"

    The Road to Rest Matthew 11:25-30 John Bunyan's classic analogy of the Christian life, Pilgrim's Progress follows the journey of the main character named Christian as he travels from the City of Destruction to the Celestial City, which describes the spiritual journey of a Christian towards ...read more

    New Age Christianity Vanity, Vanity I thought in my heart, “Come now, I will test you to find out what is spiritually good.” I tried cheering myself with Holy laughter, and embraced the folly of being drunk in the spirit, my mind still guiding me with wisdom.

    Acts 2:13 shows us the significance of the coming of the Holy Spirit.

    Introduction Luke wrote the book of Acts to tell Theophilus about how Jesus turned the world upside down.

    There is a space in Christ’s body that only you can fill. Some part of his hand, his eye, or his heart is missing when you are not there

    A couple of weeks ago, I used the image of a jigsaw puzzle to illustrate that the gift of God takes some assembling before it starts to take shape in our lives. That is why you were given a piece of a jigsaw puzzle on the way in to the sanctuary this morning. The gift of God’s spirit comes in ...read more
