    The Seven Churches-Sardis Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jan 4, 2026
     | 111 views

    The Lord didn't have much good to say about Sardis. Yet "even in Sardis", there were some genuine believers who wanted to live for our Lord, and did so!

    The Seven Churches-Sardis Introduction: The year 1747, a park bench in Warsaw, Poland in the mid-1950’s, and a church in what’s now western Turkey. On the surface, there doesn’t seem to be a common thread, but the truth is that all of these refer to the church in Sardis. This church is the fifth ...read more

     | 148 views

    Discipleship begins where control ends. Trust is revealed not by belief, but by movement

    Introduction We live in a time that prizes manageability above almost everything else. We want lives that are controllable, predictable, and efficient. We value systems that reduce friction and minimize risk. We are constantly offered ways to simplify what feels demanding, streamline what feels ...read more

    The Seven Churches-Philadelphia Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jan 9, 2026
     | 115 views

    Philadelphia didn't seem to be a large church, but the little strength they had was enough for them to overcome with the Lord's help. This church was truly the church of the open door!

    The Seven Churches-Philadelphia (Full disclosure: this message is based on a sermon I preached at New Hope Baptist Church near Fulton, MO on November 23, 2025 but is not an exact transcription.) Introduction: My paternal grandfather and one of Dad’s brothers were both pastors for many years. ...read more

    Ministry Of The Early Church

    Contributed by Rev. Dr. John Varughese on Jan 12, 2026
     | 91 views

    The early Christian ministry, as depicted in the New Testament, was a dynamic and transformative period marked by the spread of the Gospel and the establishment of the Church.

    1. Ministry of the Word of God: 2 Timothy 3:16-17; Psalms 19:7-11 As the early church grew rapidly, some widows were neglected in the daily distribution of food. In response, the twelve apostles gathered the believers and explained that they must not neglect the ministry of the Word and prayer in ...read more

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jan 13, 2026
     | 140 views

    This church, the last of the Seven, received a strong message from the Lord Jesus Christ. Still, there is a tender and beautiful invitation in the last few verses. Have you opened the door to Jesus?

    The Seven Churches-Laodicea Introduction: (Full disclosure, this message is based on a sermon I preached at New Hope Baptist Church near Fulton, MO on November 30, 2025 but is not an exact transcription.)

    Why Go To Church?

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Mar 17, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,737 views

    Attending church has many benefits - social connection, uplifting messages, inspiring music, coffee. But all of those needs can be met in other ways. There is one thing, however, that is absolutely unique about meeting together to worship, and that is the promised presence of Christ among us.

    Happy Saint Patrick’s Day! How many of you are wearing green? Good for you. But - wasn’t it just Christmas a couple of weeks ago? It’s hard to believe that Easter is only two weeks away. I realize that what I’m about to say will betray my age, but don’t you find that every year seems to go by ...read more

    The Blood Church Warning

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Apr 9, 2024
     | 663 views

    Families that use biology to determine membership should realize by now that they wrote their epitaph. We need to create a SPIRITUAL family, not a biological family.

    The Blood Church Warning Luke 3:23-38 Rabbi Dr. Rev. Michael H Koplitz Luke 3:23 aWhen He began His ministry, Jesus Himself was about thirty years of age, being, as was supposed, the son of Joseph, the son of Eli, 24 the son of Matthat, the son of Levi, the son of Melchi, the son of Jannai, the ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,083 views

    The picture of a great church in Acts 4:32-37 shows us that the church was faithful in two key areas.

    Introduction When you think of a great church, what comes to mind? We live in a day in which there is a lot of confusion over this question. Many churches are a reflection of our society which has become satiated with entertainment. Neil Postman, in his profound book titled, Amusing Ourselves ...read more

     | 2,108 views

    How can revival take place when the church is dead and there is no voice to speak life into them? Such is the state of affairs of the churches today.

    Opening illustration: A U.S. Lutheran bishop tells of visiting a parish church in California and finding a stirring red and orange banner on the wall. “Come Holy Spirit. Hallelujah!” it declared in words printed under a picture of a fire burning. The bishop was also interested in the sign directly ...read more

    Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Apr 27, 2024
     | 3,585 views

    Election in the Church today is very ugly at every level from local congregation to the international forums. According to their spiritual standard people play the politics in a simple position to the highest rank. God hates.

    Theme: Election in the Church Text: Acts 1:15-26 Greetings: The Lord is good and his Love endures forever. Introduction: Election in the Church today is very ugly at every level.

     | 790 views

    Jesus has just told the Parable of the Good Shepherd. The shepherd goes after the straying sheep. Then Jesus spells out what WE need to do when we see a member of our church falling into sin and straying.

    INTRODUCTION We sometimes hurt people. I can think of times when I’ve hurt people. And people sometimes hurt us. I can think of times when I’ve been hurt. It happens in families, in workplaces and in churches. There was a time when Paul was planning to visit the church in Corinth. But he was ...read more

    Marks Of A Healthy Church

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on May 20, 2024
     | 1,809 views

    Within the necessary unity of the church, there is also beneficial diversity. Such unified diversity seems like a paradox, but in reality, it is a thing of beauty. Healthy churches must strive to promote unity and diversity at the same time.

    Marks of a Healthy Church Ephesians 4: 11-16 In the preceding verses of chapter four, Paul has spoken about the unity that is necessary within the body of Christ in order for the church to be effective in daily life and service unto the Lord. Within this necessary unity, there is also beneficial ...read more

     | 341 views

    Theme: How does the image of marriage (according to Paul) show us the relationship between Christ and the church?

    O Lord, let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, my rock and my redeemer. Amen. If you are asked to submit to someone, how do you picture this happening? You probably think of obeying someone who is above you. Someone who has more authority than you. ...read more
