"The Power Of Agreeing Prayer"

Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Jun 2, 2008

Power is found in praying in agreement with God and with my fellow Christians.

Contributed by Joe Bedy on Apr 11, 2003

The sermon examines the Peace the Prince brings in light of the War with Iraq.

For Unto Us A Child Is Born

Contributed by Pastor Kris Belfils on Dec 13, 2012

We have been given the purest gift in Jesus Christ. This sermon takes Isaiah 9:6 to a whole different level. It allows the listener to really see Jesus as a gift and to receive and unwrap this gift daily.

We have been given a special gift at Christmas. This gift we all know of and have heard about. Jesus came to the earth as a baby, grew in favor and wisdom, died on the cross for you and me, and rose again and sits at the right hand of the Father in heaven.
