    Jesus' Family Values

    Contributed by Ken Sauer on Jun 4, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,725 views

    A sermon about the Church as Family.

    “Jesus’ Family Values” Mark 3:20-35 Family is a foundational concept in the Bible. The Bible begins in Genesis, not with talk about nations and tribes, but families—big families, real families. Sometimes God’s people are likened to the bride of the Bridegroom and our infidelities are compared ...read more

    The passage deals with immorality that shouldn’t be named or practiced among the believers at Ephesus, I want to emphasize that the scripture should not be burdened with baggage that it is often saddled with

    Background to passage: It’s been a while since we have been in Ephesians, so a quick overview. First three chapters are deeply theological about Christ’s role in our salvation and in the life of the church. Last three chapters are very practical. In fact the end of chapter four some of the “most ...read more

    Drop It All!

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 24, 2024
     | 846 views

    In recent years, one of the biggest dangers to the church is that what was considered normal Christianity is now considered abnormal and what was not even considered Christianity at all is now become the norm and hub of our faith.

    Opening illustration: Show video “Leave: Follow.” Introduction: This is dizzying. If we read these verses honestly and thoughtfully, they really do take our breath away. And so I’m left at the end of these five short verses asking myself: “What just happened?” I don’t know about you, but it ...read more

    Equipped #6: Lead With Diligence Series

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Sep 18, 2025
     | 368 views

    Leadership has always been essential to God’s kingdom work. When Paul lists the “equipment” in God’s workshop, he includes leadership—with this qualifier: take it seriously.

    Equipped to Lead Romans 12:8 (NLT) “...If God has given you leadership ability, take the responsibility seriously…” Introduction Our text for the past few weeks has been Romans 12:6-8 (NLT) In his grace, God has given us different gifts for doing certain things well. So if God has given you the ...read more

    Dazed By Discontent And Disappointment - When Hopes And Dreams Are Shattered On The Rocks Of Regret

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Nov 20, 2025
    based on 4 ratings
     | 211 views

    There are times during the Christian walk, even when the miraculous is happening all around, that things will go haywire as the reality of this life intervenes unannounced, and hopes and dreams are dashed on the rocks of regret, which manifest as fear and anger at God because they feel betrayed.

    Fear and hope are similar in that they are both forms of anticipation of the future. Fear is a form of negative hope. A person’s thinking is often dominated either by the dream and hope of success or by fear of failure. When their hopes are not realized, or their desires, dreams, expectations, ...read more

    Steps To A Successful Christian Life Series

     | 9,479 views

    Rejecting the wisdom of the world means little if we fail to embrace the wisdom from above. James provides practical steps that will lead to success in the Christian life.

    JAMES 4:5-10 STEPS TO A SUCCESSFUL CHRISTIAN LIFE “Do you suppose it is to no purpose that the Scripture says, ‘He yearns jealously over the Spirit that he has made to dwell in us?’ But He gives more grace. Therefore it says, ‘God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.’ Submit ...read more

    Escape From Sodom

     | 8,535 views

    Christians living in Sodom are in grave danger. Though God will graciously keep His own, they must need His warning to escape.

    “The two angels came to Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting in the gate of Sodom. When Lot saw them, he rose to meet them and bowed himself with his face to the earth and said, ‘My lords, please turn aside to your servant’s house and spend the night and wash your feet. Then you may rise up ...read more

    Women Preachers And The Word Of God

     | 14,445 views

    Do women have a role to play in congregational oversight? What does the Word say?

    “Let a woman learn quietly with all submissiveness. I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet. For Adam was formed first, then Eve; and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor. Yet she will be saved ...read more

    Giving That Pleases God Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Apr 5, 2014
     | 15,152 views

    We Christians want to please God in all things. Even in the act of giving, we want to please Him. The Apostle to the Gentiles provides instruction designed to ensure that we please Him in this act of worship.

    “In this matter I give my judgment: this benefits you, who a year ago started not only to do this work but also to desire to do it. So now finish doing it as well, so that your readiness in desiring it may be matched by your completing it out of what you have. For if the readiness is there, ...read more

    Not Of This World!

    Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Jul 22, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,473 views

    All of us, at some point in time, have a mutual desire. To be accepted. To feel wanted, loved and appreciated. Most of us want it so bad, we lose sight of our faith in the Lord. My Pastor has said on many occasions, "Compromise with the world is treason in the courts of Heaven."

    All of us, at some point in time, have a mutual desire. To be accepted. To feel wanted, loved and appreciated. Most of us want it so bad, we lose sight of our faith in the Lord.

    A King In The Gate

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 3, 2001
    based on 61 ratings
     | 4,122 views

    David’s emergence from grief over Absalom was marked by his "sitting in the gate" -- a sign of healthy recovery in that he had begun to care for others more than for his own wounds, he had returned to the work of justice, he faced vulnerability, he resumed leadership, he could face his own grief.

    I This day the noise of battle, the next the victory’s won. Or so the king hoped. Much was at stake. His own future was uncertain; the nation’s stability was shaky; the confidence of those around him was low; and, most of all, his relationship with his son was in jeopardy. There had been a ...read more

    The trouble wit hlaw keeping is that we’re unable to do it. The good thing about the law is that it drives us back to dependence on the grace of God in Jesu Christ

    Here’s what happens to people from time to time. They realise they have a problem with a particular sin or sins, so they decide to do something about it. They read something like Romans 6, that we read last week and they decide that from now on they’ll be slaves of righteousness. Whenever they feel ...read more
