    The only way to fulfill the purpose of the church and of being a Christian is to be committed to opening people’s minds to receive Christ Jesus and eternal life.

    Open Minds – Luke 24: 44 - 53 Intro: When I was in high school, I could not understand why it was necessary for me to take subjects like history, algebra, geometry or chemistry. --- Perhaps the reason I felt that way was because those were the hardest classes for me. --- Regardless, no one could ...read more

    The Two Roads

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Sep 16, 2006
    based on 64 ratings
     | 15,530 views

    Jesus said there are two roads, two ways. There is God’s way which leads to life and the other way (the popular way) which leads to destruction. This sermon encourages people to seek out the small gate and narrow road that leads to life.

    When Jesus spoke of two roads, two gates, two paths, he was speaking in ways which people understood. Religious teachers then always spoke about there being two ways; one which leads to destruction and one which leads to life. So that part of Jesus’ teaching was not surprising. However, the way ...read more

    This is a short talk given at a lunch for mainly elderly people, many of whom have known recent bereavement, and some of whom may not yet consider themselves Christians or Church Members.

    Never too late? Shortly after I passed my driving test I was due to travel from my then home in Yateley, Hampshire, UK for a weekend away somewhere in Wales. It was the furthest I had ever driven at the time and my mother very kindly allowed me to use her car. Sadly the car was (for me back then) ...read more

    Jesus expands his ministry into gentile territory and is immediately confronted by evil. He overcomes the evil and in doing so assures us that he will overcome whatever evil that confronts us in our lives.

    Luke 8:26-39 “Supreme Power” INTRODUCTION One of the all time favorite Bible stories is the tale of David and Goliath. We all remember the story of gutsy little David, who was a shepherd by trade, going against the giant Goliath, who was a professional soldier. David was so scrawny that ...read more

    The Final Conquest

    Three very important qualities in Joshua life, which enable him to complete the final conquest. I believe that as we apply these qualities into our own lives and into our church, we too as a people of God can fulfill his purpose for our hour.

    Title: The Final Conquest Text: Joshua 11 Introduction As we study the book of Joshua, the conquest of Canaan was accomplished through three campaigns. Chapter 6 – 10 covers the central campaign, where the key battles fought were in Jericho and Ai, and the Southern Campaign, where Joshua ...read more

    Bumpers stickers say a lot in a few words - so do the Bible verses of First Thessalonians chapter five.

    Bumpers stickers say a lot in a few words. They are easily memorized. They can make us think. Bumper stickers are a lot like these Bible verses: 1 Thessalonians 5:16 - "Be joyful always."
