    GUARDIAN ANGELS based on Acts 12:1-11 By Pastor Glenn Pease There are few stories more exciting than escape stories. One of my favorite kinds of movie when I was a kid was prison escape movies.

    Sex sells...are you buying? Sex is an every-day, all-day, in-your-face issue. What are we to do?

    "Godly Sexuality" – Part 1 Matthew 5:27-32 (Cognates: Matthew 19:3-12; 1 Corinthians 6:9-20; 7:1-17; Hebrews 10:26-31) God’s stand on sexuality, marriage, divorce and remarriage is clear when we take the whole of Scripture, prayerfully read it and then trust the Holy Spirit to open our hearts and ...read more

    Daniel’s vision of the future is amazing. But it is a solemn reminder Jesus is going to return and one day all of those who don’t know Him will be sentenced at the Great White Throne Judgement.

    INTRODUCTION English writer George Orwell is perhaps best known for his work 1984 (written in 1949), in which he introduced the idea that “Big Brother is watching.” It is almost scary to read it today because it seems strangely prophetic of the ability of big government to monitor your phone and ...read more

    The answer to this crippled man’s need is not in the troubled water but faith in the person, Jesus Christ. His struggles and decisions are not unlike our own as we respond to God.

    Getting Well and Staying Well Fortifying the Foundations #12 John 5:1-15 7-13-03 Intro: As we read our text this morning I will touch on a couple of technical matters that are helpful to understand but not necessary to the flow of the message.

    based on 115 ratings
     | 33,502 views

    What happens after death is widely argued among non-Christians. The simple truth is: when you die, you will continue to exist and where you spend eternity depends on the choices you make in the here and now.

    What Happens After You Die? Luke 16:19-31 by David O. Dykes INTRODUCTION How old were you when you began to realize people die? One of my earliest memories was when I was about five years old and my family was traveling to Panama City, Florida to attend my grandfather’s funeral. I recall ...read more

    Why do bad things happen to good people? Suffering gets our attention and reminds us that we cannot make it without God.

    The Church That Tolerates

    based on 54 ratings
     | 7,642 views

    We are called to be a loving body that accepts all people where they stand, however, the example of Thyatira shows that lines must be drawn for the health of that loving body.

    THE CHURCH THAT TOLERATES. Since God created the human race, Satan has taken an active aggressive role against the human race. His goal is to divide and destroy. He wants to seduce us away from the protective arms of our Creator so that he can drag us away to share in his eternal destiny. We ...read more

    God is passionate about us worshipping him accurately and on his terms.

    It was an exciting week at our house. Our tadpoles changed into frogs this week, so we’ve all be reflecting on the wonder of metaphorphasis. You see, with four boys in our home we don’t have pet dogs and cats, but we end up with iguanas, skinks, lizards, and most recently a corn snake and ...read more

     | 19,669 views

    What should be the vision for a congregation that is pleasing to the Lord? The answer is given in a study of the first message preached by Peter following the Resurrection of the Lord.

    “And in the last days it shall be, God declares, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams; even on my male servants and female servants in those days I will pour out ...read more

    based on 43 ratings
     | 32,608 views

    On the surface the Parable of the Good Samaritan appears to be a simple story about being kind. It’s actually much deeper than that. This story is designed to show each of us how sinful and selfish we really are and that our only hope of going to heaven

    Knowing Our Neighbors Luke 10:25-37 Rev. Brian Bill 6/14/09 The story of the Good Samaritan is one of the most well-known parables of Jesus. There are hospitals named after him and his name has become an idiom for unusual kindness and extraordinary care for the hurting. The “Good Sam RV Club” ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,167 views

    Modern churches often fail to worship because they do not recognise the centrality of preaching for worship. We would do well to recall the instruction Paul gave Timothy.

    2 TIMOTHY 4:1-5 THE MINISTRY OF THE WORD IN EVIL DAYS “I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom: preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience ...read more
