Sacrifices To God Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Feb 21, 2020

Offerings follow the character of the worshipper. God looks not into the hands of a man but the heart of a man. We can't satisfy God by our mere offerings but by the broken heart and humble spirit. God is after a man or woman who is living with love and devotion to God and fellow human.

Worship And Giving Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Feb 21, 2020

The Grace Of God - Sermon For Proper 20 - Year A

Contributed by Ian Bullock on Sep 18, 2020

The Harsh Reality And Unavoidable Issue Of Sin

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Oct 13, 2021

Sin is a serious and destructive fact of life. We define it as a series of "mistakes", "errors of judgment", or "bad behavior". We need to see sin for what it is -an abomination in the sight of a Holy God (Ezekiel 18:20; Romans 6:23).

Modern society more and more makes very little of or does not even bother to think about sin as a serious and destructive fact of life. There are varying attitudes towards the subject of sin. Some view the idea as an illusion, the construction of ancient religious fanatics, or fantasy. Many deny ...read more

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Jun 22, 2020

The fears and hardships of life can weigh heavily upon us, and sometimes the best way to cope is to transcend them by focusing and pondering the truths of God’s Word, particularly His promise to bring us through.

Transcending Life’s Challenges (Romans 8:31-34) 1. Today is Father’s Day and today’s sermon has a lot of Jewish Roots to it. So I decided to begin with a joke about a Jewish father. 2.

Their loyalty to God could not be threatened or coerced or manipulated. It didn’t exist only when times were good and things were going their way, No!! It was constant, fierce and unshakable:

May 27, 2023 Daniel had said that Nebuchadnezzar was the head of gold – GOOD – but he also said that Nebuchadnezzar’s kingdom would come to an end – BAD.

Inner Nature

Contributed by Dr. Abraham Obadare on Oct 7, 2025

The inner man or inner nature has so much power to destroy people and take away the kingdom of God from them. It can cause one to fall on his or her way from this earth to heaven. All of you who have the opportunity to read this write-up should set aside time to fast and pray concerning this matter.

God created us perfectly, in His own image. He created us to be godly, and 1 Tim 6:6 says godliness with contentment is great gain. God created us to be like Him, but the enemy came and messed us up.
