     | 3,805 views

    Everything a believer does is aimed at impacting others for Christ...or should be.

    Therefore, my friends, since we have confidence to enter the sanctuary by the blood of Jesus, by the new and living way that he opened for us through the curtain (that is, through his flesh), and since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us approach with a true heart in full assurance ...read more

    Often, people say, “If God would only speak audibly telling me what He wants me to do life would be so much easier.” God wants us to do His will, nothing more, nothing less, and nothing else. But realize that knowing and doing God’s isn’t that hard.

    It’s Not Hard Deuteronomy 30:11-20 Introduction: As the golfer approached the first tee, a hazardous hole with a green surrounded by water, he debated if he should use his new golf ball. Deciding that the hole was too treacherous, he pulled out an old ball and placed it on the tee. Just then he ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,732 views

    Life is more than just about today, it is about being influenced and focussed on the resurrection.

    Every moment we live we have been affected or influenced by someone, some event or some thing. There are many things that affect our lives, that change the way we look at life, and how we approach life. Sometimes these changes are the result of new discoveries. One discovery that has affected ...read more

    Picturing the face and presence of God

    How many of us throughout our lives ever tried to imagine what God looks like? Do you think of the Sistine Chapel? Maybe you see the statue of Zeus, or maybe some may even think of George Burns or Morgan Freeman. While none of these truly represent who God is or what he may look like, they do ...read more

    A Confrontation About Resurrection Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 20, 2018
     | 5,532 views

    The Sadducees came to Jesus with a question regarding resurrection. This is quite interesting since they did not believe in resurrection. His response revealed much about God's provision for us and life after death for the saved.

    A Confrontation about Resurrection Mark 12: 18-27 Those who embrace Jesus as the Christ, having received Him as Lord and Savior, all agree on an essential element of His existence – His glorious resurrection. Had He not risen from the grave, He would have been like all who came before Him. We ...read more

    From the worshiping women in Mark 14, we learn three things about the kind of worship that Jesus approves of.

    John says (John 12:1) Jesus arrived in Bethany 6 days before Passover, which means He arrived on Saturday. He and His disciples stayed in Bethany each evening during the first part of the last week of His life.

    I would like to thank Pastor Jerry Shirley for sharing. It has been a blessing as well as a great help as I spend my days caring for my dying father. I kept some of the messages to share even after my Father passed way.

    We Were Made to Thrive Acts 20:22-25 Some think being a Christian means living a life as boring as watching paint dry and I’ve known some pretty boring Christians but it’s because they haven’t experienced the Christian life the way God intended it. God never intended for our ...read more

     | 8,701 views

    Consider the will of God in every matter. Consider the consequences of every choice.

    This is not a good title; I use it to jog our mind to think. Is this our orientation to life? • We know God cares and therefore we live through life seeking God to provide what we want. He is key to a successful and comfortable life. • The needs are real, and many, no doubt about ...read more

    Introduction A Churchgoer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and complained that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday. He wrote, “I’ve gone to church for 30 years now, and in that time I have heard something like 3,000 sermons. But for the life of me, I can’t ...read more

    Do we know who we are? With all of our hang-ups, challenges, gifts, warts and all, “THIS IS US!” Understanding our identity is essential for our health.

    Found Among Sinners Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 7,678 views

    Large crowds followed Jesus, coming where He was. He could've waited on them to come to Him, but often He went out, seeking them. Jesus was often found among those society rejected. We too must be willing to go where they are, seeking to reach them.

    Found among Sinners Mark 2: 13-17 Following a season of ministry around the region of Galilee, Jesus had returned to Capernaum. His return created quite a stir, as multitudes arrived at Peter’s house, hoping to see Jesus. The palsied man was miraculously healed, and Jesus made a statement that ...read more
