    Is My Work In Vain? A Puzzling Question From The Messiah

    Jesus seems discouraged in His conversation with the LORD. God's answer shows us the light.

    1.19.20 Isaiah 49:1-7 Listen to me, you islands; hear this, you distant nations: Before I was born the LORD called me; from my birth he has made mention of my name. 2 He made my mouth like a sharpened sword, in the shadow of his hand he hid me; he made me into a ...read more

    The Outsiders

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Oct 20, 2011
     | 6,728 views

    Are we mindful of how we come across to unbelievers? Are we aware of how the unchurched look at those who call themselves Christians? It would serve us well to gain a better understanding about how important it is to present ourselves in the right way.

    THE OUTSIDERS INTRODUCTION: We come to church and we’re mostly surrounded by “insiders” people who are Christians like us but how much consideration do we give to those who are still outside? Are we mindful of how we come across to unbelievers? Do we care how we present ...read more

     | 3,601 views

    In difficult times genuine followers of Christ abide in Christ, abound in love, and advance with power.

    Greg Laurie tells a story about a woman, who had finished shopping and returned to her car. She found four men inside the car. She dropped her shopping bags, drew a handgun, and screamed, “I have a gun, and I know how to use it! Get out of the car.” Those men did not wait for a second invitation; ...read more

    A Study On Revival Series

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jan 23, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,804 views

    In all this we see that the fruit of revival is more revival, the opening of hearts for both the preaching and receiving of the gospel. That was the case at this time in Samaria. There was a great revival going on.

    Tonight’s passage shows us the great need for revival both within and outside the church. Let’s get into this long passage. READ v. 5. The preacher was Philip, a layman, one of the first deacons. As we said last week, the importance of this verse is in declaring that the first great ...read more

    One Tax Collector Series

    Jesus touched the life of one tax collector & changed him forever.

    “ONE TAX COLLECTOR” Luke 5:27-32 CWBC – 1/20/19 Jon Daniels INTRO – God can save anybody. Do you believe that? If we were honest, we would have to say that sometimes we have a hard time believing certain people can be saved. Heard a story just this past week of a guy who had been arrested ...read more

    Be Like Jesus Series

    Contributed by Brian Vickers on Oct 26, 2022
     | 4,024 views

    As part of our calling to discipleship we seek to become like Jesus in every way.

    Matthew 4:18-22 When we read the Great Commission in Matthew 28 it can become easy for the church – followers of Jesus – to take it in with a “been there, done that” kind of attitude. After all, we’ve heard those words repeatedly, many of us for our entire lives. But this morning ask yourself a ...read more

    Not Just For Sundays Anymore Series

    Contributed by Brian Vickers on Oct 26, 2022
     | 2,269 views

    Many in the church grew up with "Sunday only" forms of discipleship that were confined to the local church setting. But discipleship isn't just for Sundays.

    For all my growing up and young adult years we equated the idea of discipleship with one thing: Sunday School. That meant that people came together on Sunday mornings, sat in classes mostly segregated by age groups, and learned about the Bible. Like we said a few weeks back, it was a Sunday thing. ...read more

    The Subject Of Labor For God Series

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Oct 26, 2022
     | 2,236 views

    The believer’s life is to be focused on the will and work of God. A Christian’s purpose for being on earth is to serve God, to obey and work for Him.

    We’re still at the well with Jesus and the Samaritan woman. The woman has gone to town and witnessed to the people there about seeing the Messiah. The people responded to her witness and came to see for themselves. So, this evening, we discuss the subject of labor for God. The believer is ...read more

    While there are several sublime qualities in our Saviour realization of which would evoke spontaneous worship, in this message I would like to focus on His singular genius in creating and maintaining oh-so-delicate balance in the natural as well as the spiritual realm.

    Balance…Balance …Balance First things first. More than worshipping God for the blessings, which He pours into our lives, we need to learn to worship Him, just for what He is! Worshipping ...read more

    Can I Live In Christ Permanently? - Only In Christ Can I Bear Fruit

    Contributed by David Leach on May 28, 2014
     | 4,365 views

    For a Christian to live "ln Christ" is the central doctrine of the New Testament. Except for limited portions that focus on the start of the Christian life by being born again, most of the New Testament is addressed to and can only be understood by Christians living "ln Christ".

    Can I live in Christ permanently? - only in Christ can I bear fruit The following three verses from John chapter 15 state three of the most central truths of Christianity (1) God's purpose for the Christian (2) The only way God's purpose can be fulfilled, and (3) The reason why many a Christian's ...read more

    Getting What You Ask For From God

    Contributed by R. Joseph Owles on May 6, 2012
     | 6,432 views

    Based on the Lectionary readings for the 5th Sunday in Easter (Acts 9:26-31; 1 John 3:18-24; John 15:1-8). Jesus says that we can ask anything from God and receive it. 1 John explains it, and Acts shows the consequence.

    Jesus said to his disciples: "I am the true vine, and my Father is the vine grower. He takes away every branch in me that does not bear fruit, and every one that does he prunes so that it bears more fruit. You are already pruned because of the word that I spoke to you. Remain in me, as I remain in ...read more

    Not much is said about self-denial and sacrifice in today's church and society, but it is central to the life of a disciple of Jesus Christ.
