    As a Christian, by what standard do you measure your leadership choices? By God's? By your own? By the world's? Do you make your leadership choices according to strength, money, loud music, catchy slogan or jingle, empty words, emotions, popularity? Or do you choose your leaders ...read more

    Embracing Change — Making Room For Pure Religion

    Contributed by Ron Auch Jr on Jun 1, 2025
     | 200 views

    Change is never easy. But in the Kingdom of God, change is often the doorway to growth. The Church has always been called to adapt—not by compromising truth, but by shedding old forms that no longer serve the mission.

    Belonging At The King's Table Series

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 14, 2022
     | 3,951 views

    I love this story! It’s a story of incredible, undeserved kindness. We live in a harsh world, and while there are stories of kindness out there, it’s far too uncommon. The world will show kindness to its own, but we are called to show kindness to anyone and everyone, even our enemies. But why?

    1. Mephibosheth Who was Mephiboshet? —Background: II Sam. 4:4 —He was a cripple. Our culture has changed certain words, such as “lame” or “dumb.” Mephibosheth was a cripple, that is, he was lame. —He was Jonathan’s son. As you’ll recall, Jonathan was David’s best friend.

     | 1,657 views

    Jesus teaches the parable of the sower to illustrate the various conditions of the human heart that challenge our spiritual growth to accept God's truths.

    ONE OF THE MOST ENJOYABLE MUSIC GENRES THAT I HAVE ENCOUNTERED IN MANY CHURCHES THAT I HAVE PASTORED HAS UNDOUBTEDLY BEEN SOUTHERN GOSPEL QUARTETS. THE FOUR PARTS OF LEAD, TENOR, BARITONE AND BASS HAVE CLAPPED MANY A HAND AND TAPPED THOUSANDS OF TOES TO THE STORIES OF HEAVEN AND THE GOSPEL OF ...read more

    Architecture Of The Church

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Aug 24, 2023
     | 1,586 views

    Jesus establishes Peter as the first building block of the Church upon his confession that Jesus is the Son of God. We, too, have that same opportunity to become a building stone in the Church.

    CHURCH! THAT WORD, ALONE, BRINGS ABOUT MANY DIFFERENT IDEAS AND UNDERSTANDINGS. I HAVE HEARD IT DESCRIBED AS JUST A BUILDING OR AS A PLACE CHRISTIANS GO ON SUNDAY. PERHAPS, THOSE DEEPER IN FAITH WOULD CALL IT A GROUP OF BELIEVERS. WE ALL HAVE DIFFERENT CONCEPTS OF WHAT “CHURCH” MEANS TO US. IF WE ...read more

    The Tree

    Unity is so important for the church that Jesus spoke about it in the last narrative of Mark's Gospel. Why can the church not agree to disagree? She needs to come together as one!

    9 Now after He had risen early on the first day of the week, He first appeared to Mary Magdalene, from whom He had cast out seven demons. 10 She went and reported to those who had been with Him, while they were mourning and weeping. 11 When they heard that He was alive and had been seen by her, ...read more

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 2, 2020
     | 1,963 views

    This sermon looks at Mary's submission to the angel's message, saying that she is the Lord's servant. What can we learn from Mary? And how does having trust in God lead to seeing power from God?

We are far more familiar with being a consumer, where we are the one who is being served and whose needs are being ...read more

    We Must Examine Ourselves

     | 2,055 views

    When taking the Sacrament of Holy Communion, we must take an honest inventory of our life through examination, confession and forgiveness. We must take the Sacrament fully reconciled before God and our neighbor.

    THROUGHOUT THE LIFE OF THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH, THE LORD'S SUPPER HAS BEEN THE MOST COMMON FORM OF PUBLIC WORSHIP. THE HOLY SUPPER TAKEN TOGETHER IN THE FORM OF WORSHIP BECOMES THE MEANS BY WHICH WE ARE EMPOWERED TO FULLY GIVE OF OURSELVES. CHRISTIANS CAN ONLY MINISTER ON THE BASIS OF WHAT THEY ...read more
