    When "If” Met "So”

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 4, 2025
     | 200 views

    From the serpent’s "if" that birthed doubt to the Savior’s "so" that proved love, redemption silences every question with grace.

    I. YOU STILL CALL MY NAME — THE CRISIS OF CONFESSION WITHOUT CHARACTER There are small words that change destinies—and none smaller than if. Two letters that separate ruin from renewal, noise from nearness. When Solomon dedicated the temple, the glory of God fell like fire. The priests couldn’t ...read more

    Nice Place You Got

     | 123 views

    The church becomes lovely when grace lives within her people—imperfect, forgiven hearts revealing God’s presence and beauty to a longing world.

    >>The Big Hunger If you’ve ever watched the old film The Gods Must Be Crazy, you’ll remember the little Bushmen of the Kalahari Desert. Anthropologists call them the San people, but their neighbors simply say, “the Sun People.” Out there—where the sand burns your feet and the stars blanket ...read more

    Committing To Our Mission As The Church PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 3, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 145 views

    Jesus seeks the lost and sends us to join His mission, turning everyday places into opportunities to share His love, freedom, and abundant life.

    There’s a line that lingers in the soul like a song you can’t forget: Jesus came looking for people. Before we raised our hands, before we learned the words, before we found our seat on a Sunday—He was already searching. He crossed crowded roads, dusty villages, and social barriers, because that’s ...read more

    Concentration On Consecration PRO Sermon

    based on 3 ratings
     | 112 views

    God calls us to consecrate ourselves—living holy, set-apart lives—so we are ready for Him to work wonders in and through us.

    There’s a hush that falls over the heart when you sense God is nearby. Not in the thunder, not even in the headlines, but in the ordinary—the kettle singing in the kitchen, a lunch pail packed for work, the Bible open on a worn table. In those moments, something within whispers, “Get ready.” ...read more

     | 151 views

    This sermon urges believers to choose love over judgment, removing obstacles for others and fostering a gentle, supportive community that reflects Christ’s kindness.

    Friends, welcome. Take a breath. Let your shoulders drop a bit. I don’t know what you carried in today—opinions that feel heavy, tensions that won’t unwind, or that low ache that comes from wishing people saw things your way. Church can feel like a crowded dinner table where everyone brings a ...read more

    The sermon calls believers to embody Christlike unity, compassion, and humility, serving others with kindness and mercy in everyday relationships and all creation.

    If you could hold the heartbeat of the early church in your hands, you might feel something steady and strong: a rhythm of humility, a pulse of compassion, and a gentle strength that held people together when everything around them seemed to be coming apart. That same heartbeat is available to us ...read more

     | 119 views

    True worship begins with surrender at God’s altar, where we lay down our lives and receive grace through Christ’s ultimate sacrifice.

    Some of us walked in today with a smile that hides the tired places of the soul. Some of us carried questions that feel too heavy to say out loud. And some of us came hungry for hope, like parched ground waiting for rain. Friend, you are seen. You are welcome. You are loved. In this moment, with ...read more

     | 162 views

    True acceptance with God comes not from self-righteousness or performance, but from humble, honest confession and receiving His mercy through Jesus Christ.

    Some of us walked in today with weary hearts and distracted minds. The week has been loud. Deadlines and dishes, headlines and heartaches—so many voices bidding for your attention. But in the quiet place where you talk to God, what matters most? How do you come to Him? With polished phrases and ...read more

    Jesus gives His followers advice on how to respond, and even reply, in the face of persecution. He also assures them that they will be guided and empowered by the Holy Spirit to accomplish their mission.

    I have entitled our message today, “As Sheep Among Wolves.” The title is based on the very first verse of our passage, where Jesus told His followers, “Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves” (v. 16). Now, I am going to go ahead and start with an exposition. The word sheep ...read more

    God from the beginning of time mandated/demonstrated that we all must rest in Him. We have to connect with Him to get energized! We also have to learn to rest in the future – placing our lives into the hands of the Lord.

    There is a passage in the Gospel of Luke that talks about two sisters and their attitudes and methods for spending time with the Lord. One of the sisters had her spiritual priorities straight. The other was too busy to listen.
