The God-Enhanced Heart Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Mar 18, 2003

We receive from the Lord a God-enhanced heart. God takes what we are like and enhances it - some to destruction, like Pharoah, some to incredible compassion and mercy, like Moses. What kind of heart do you have?

Remember Steve Austin – the Six Million Dollar Man? “We have the technology; we can rebuild him – faster, stronger, and a better actor!” Well maybe that last part was beyond the technology of the time – but that fictional story involved giving a man enhanced body parts to make him better than he ...read more

1. The Generous Employer Series

Contributed by Don Jaques on Feb 13, 2007

The way into the Kingdom is by response to an invitation to come – not by justice (working for your wages). All people, regardless of background, can respond to God’s invitation and be rewarded with eternal life.

In a rather shocking story that Jesus told to a crowd of people, he shared with them that the ways of God’s relating to people are actually quite a bit different from our rules of fairness, justice, and good economic principles. Listen now as I’ll tell you a story like Jesus told it – it comes ...read more

Authentic Christianity

Contributed by Ray Searan on Feb 21, 2007

If you want to know what someone is all about, just listen to what they say. Jesus once said: “Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.” The Living Bible puts it this way: “Whatever is in the heart overflows into speech”.

How To Build A Faithful Nation

Contributed by Greg Nance on Feb 24, 2007

When will Israel learn to trust God? Raising a faithful generation will take more time and more pain. God shows us, Egypt and Canaan are poor places to learn faith.

This week we finished Leviticus and read the first 18 chapters of the book of Numbers. So, where did you see Jesus in Numbers? The word “Egypt” occurs in Numbers several times doesn’t it. Four times it occurs reminding Israel that God has brought them out of Egypt. Eight times it occurs when ...read more

The Calling Of A Candidate

Contributed by Bruce Willis on Dec 5, 2006

This is a sermon preached in view of being called as pastor which seeks to encourage the congregation to seek God’s will as they worship.

The calling of a pastor is one of the most exciting experiences in the life of a church. It can also be one of the most anxious and trying too!

Sin, Stones, And Forgiveness

Contributed by James Chandler on Jan 11, 2007

It is not a question of IF we have sin in our lives, but how we deal with sin in our lives. In John 8, we see how Jesus helped an adulterous woman deal with the sin in her life, and he will do the same for you and me.

Can you imagine being in Time’s Square in New York City, and there on the jumbo-tron screen was every sin you have ever committed being displayed for all to see? How horrible would that be? How humiliating would that be? We all know we have sin in our life, we just don’t want everyone else to ...read more
