    Your theology, what you really believe, comes out at midnight. What I mean by midnight is at the darkest moment of your soul; when things seem hopeless, when the pressure mounts, when the pain intensifies, when things are darkest. Let's shine our brightest at midnight.

    Sermon: Being Bright Lights in A Dark World Scripture - Acts 16:25-40 “Around midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening.

    How To Be Good Without Being A Hypocrite Series

    Contributed by Art Campbell on Aug 8, 2022
     | 2,270 views

    It seems that the more strongly we hold moral views the more we insist others hold them as well, and the harder it is to live by them, and we get into this cycle of bullying, hypocrisy and moral failure. So how can we be good without being a hypocrite?

    HYPOCRISY IN THE CHURCH When I was younger, the church pretty much had the corner on hypocrisy, at least as society told the story. People didn’t want to go to church because it was full of hypocrites. To which we sometimes replied, come on in then, we’ve room for more. And that’s not an unfair ...read more

    Christians are commanded to witness to the lost. It is not a suggestion, it is a COMMAND

    God’s command for us Christians is to, “GO YE INTO ALL THE WORLD AND PREACH THE GOSPEL.” Look at that word “GO”. Have you ever been behind a car at a red light and when the light turned green they just set there? After a little while you start talking to yourself “GO MAN! DON’T YOU KNOW WHAT GO ...read more

Right before this passage, Jesus has been warning His disciples, and therefore us, against teaching others to sin. That’s called scandal. Here He speaks about the ...read more

    Are you the rebellious son, lost and far from God? Are you the self-righteous Pharisee, no longer capable of rejoicing when a sinner returns to God?

He was lost, but now he is found.’ (Luke 15:23, 24) Is Re-found really a word? Well, technically, no. But for this devotional and this lesson ...read more

    The dreams of Joseph lay out the larger vision of what God will fulfill in His life. What can we learn from it about the way God works?

    - Sermon series: “Character Amid Crisis.” - Joseph is not necessary the most important of the OT characters. That would probably go to Abraham or Moses or David. But I think Joseph stands as the greatest saint of the OT in his behavior. He doesn’t have the major lapses in his behavior like most of ...read more
