    Contributed by Tim White on Apr 15, 2013
     | 5,684 views

    Two followers of Jesus had an encounter on their walk home that changed their lives and opened their eyes.

    Our Church members have had a lot of interest in the Walk to Emmaus lately, and for a good reason. I have never known anyone who went on a Walk that wasn’t tremendously blessed. If you are not saved when you go on the Walk, there is a very good chance you will be saved before you come home. ...read more

    Worship is a key element to a Christian's life. It is the life-blood of a congregation. It could provide us with a unifying, uplifting experience. We must see it in the right light.

    1. You’re the Preacher! A mother watched her son begin to drain of energy as the week went on. By the end of the week he’d lost his desire to get out of bed. She heard the alarm go off through his bedroom door. Apparently he just kept punching the little snooze button on the top. ...read more

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Jan 10, 2020
     | 2,578 views

    Most people like bargains. Getting the most for the least amount invested. The same should be true of the time spent in our church services.

    Most people like bargains. Getting the most for the least amount invested. The same should be true of the time spent in our church services. At the best, the actual time in church could not be over four hours a week, unless you are involved in the ministry of this church. Often people tell me the ...read more

     | 6,768 views

    God’s Favor is everywhere! Gods favor knows no boundaries, has no inhibitions, doesn’t look for qualifications, is not based on getting in return, only for opportunities to show itself!

    Psalm 30:4,5 NKJ Sing praise to the Lord, you saints of His, And give thanks at the remembrance of His holy name. For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life; Weeping may endure for a night, But joy comes in the morning. One definition of the word favor by Webster is: special ...read more

    Stumbing Along

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 19, 2023
     | 1,229 views

    Unexamined assumptions can cause us to stumble over things we don't even notice.

    It’s a little disconcerting, sitting down to write a sermon on a passage that you’ve already preached on twice, to find that neither time did you say what you’d planned to say. Of course, only preachers have that problem... Maybe only 60-something preachers have that problem. But more generally, ...read more

    based on 1 rating

    Biblical obedience. Daily surrender. Sacrificial love. Passionate evangelism. Unashamed holiness. These are not lofty, elite-level Christian goals—they are the standard Jesus set. The normal Christian life, in Jesus’ eyes, is anything but lukewarm.

But since you are like lukewarm water, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth!" Introduction: Setting the ...read more

    If you make an investment, would you not expect to make a greater return than what you put in? Why should God expect less from us?

    Turn tonight to Mark 4:20 (READ) And those are the ones whom seed was sown in the good soil; and they hear the word and accept it, and bear fruit, thirty, sixty and a hundred fold.
