    Call Waiting Series

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Nov 27, 2022
     | 1,136 views

    If God puts unexpected obstacles in your path to ministry, how should you handle it?

    When I graduated from seminary, I had no idea when or where I would be called into ministry. Many of my classmates were luckier. They knew where they were going. They had received a call. I, on the other hand, would not even be eligible to receive a call for at least one year, perhaps two or more. ...read more

    Palm Sunday: This message on "The Triumphal Entry" teaches us some things about worship, concerning what we should be thankful for and what we should celebrate when we find ourselves in the presence of the one true King, Jesus Christ.

    One Palm Sunday, a little boy had a sore throat and had to stay home from church with a babysitter. When the rest of the family came home, they were carrying palm branches; and the little boy asked what they were for. His father told him that people waved them in celebration as Jesus passed by. ...read more

    Have you ever thought about what it would be like to see and talk to the President of the United States?

    This would be a great honor if you were Democrat, Republican or independent. But to see him this could prove to be a very difficult assignment, if not impossible! • You would have to first get through some of the tightest security in the U.S. • Even if you did get past them you would have to ...read more

    ¿qué Se Siente Saber Que Jesús Está Vivo?

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Apr 13, 2023
     | 938 views

    Debido a que Jesús resucitó de entre los muertos, nosotros también... pero antes de irnos, somos transformados en algo que él quiere que seamos. Quiere que anhelemos la muerte y nuestra vida futura con él.

    Este sermón fue pronunciado en St Oswald's en Maybole, Ayrshire, Escocia, el 9 de abril de 2023 (una Iglesia Episcopal Escocesa en las Diócesis de Glasgow y Dumfries). “Por favor, únase a mí en mi oración”. Sean gratas las palabras de mi boca y la meditación de ...read more

    Cosy In The Culture Series

     | 1,503 views

    The story of Esther is an amazing story of how God can use His people to accomplish His will. But Mordecai and Esther were not always the heroes. Much like our world today, Esther and Mordecai were cosy in their culture. As Christians, we need to be different from the world.

    Introduction Video Ill.: Book of Esther in 20 Words This morning, we are starting a new study based loosely on Max Lucado’s book, You Were Made for This Moment. If you want to study deeper, there is a great study guide that comes with a series of videos you can stream online. It is available ...read more

    Whatever trial, struggle, bad thing, brokenness, you are going thru is not permanent Whatever trial, struggle, bad thing, brokenness, you are going thru is not permanent. You are just in a Job-like Season. And seasons pass.

    Job-like Season “If my misery could be weighed and my troubles be put on the scales, 3 they would outweigh all the sands of the sea.” Job 6:2-3 Intro: In a village called Uz on the east side of Canaan…, there was a child born named Job.

    If God loved me enough to give His Son when I was His enemy, surely He loves me enough to care for me now that I am His child.

    God is Love Romans 5:6-8 Rev. Brian Bill August 11-12, 2018 I enjoy hearing what kids say about love. • Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on cologne and they go out and smell each other. • Love is like an avalanche where you have to run for your life. • Love is the most ...read more

    Lesson 10: To Abstain From Sexual Immorality Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 20, 2018
     | 5,739 views

    The apostle believed that there were certain subjects and doctrines in which they needed further guidance and instruction. Chief among these was the misunderstanding that had arisen concerning the second coming of the Lord Jesus.

    Sentence Pronounced On Cain Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Sep 1, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,689 views

    There is, as usual, a grain of truth mingled with the amazing falsehood of this surly response. No man is the absolute keeper of his brother, to the extent he is responsible for his safety when he is not present. This is what Cain means to insinuate.

    September 27, 2013 Commentary on the Book of Genesis By: Tom Lowe Lesson I.C.2: Sentence Pronounced on Cain Gen. 4.9-15 (KJV) 9 And the LORD said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother?

    Love And Hate Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Nov 6, 2023
     | 2,128 views

    In Mark 14, Mark places the themes of love and hate alongside each other to create a sharp contrast. The hatred of the Jewish leaders, is followed by Mary’s loving act, which is followed by Judas’ betrayal. These stories challenge us to examine our feelings and actions toward Jesus.

    Introduction A. I heard the true story of a woman who took a number of children to see a movie. 1. Before going into the seating area, they stopped at the concession stand and the woman offered to buy popcorn for the children to share. 2.
