Sermons on Being Renewed:

Is God Listening?

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 9, 2025

Prayer opens heaven’s ear and renews earth’s heart—reviving believers, healing divisions, and proving again that God still listens when His people pray.

Dr. Ralph D. Nichols of the University of Minnesota once told of a moment every public speaker dreads. He was addressing a high-school commencement when suddenly a child began to cry. Then another joined in. A small boy galloped up and down the aisle chased by another. With sinking heart, Dr. ...read more

Kingdom Keys: Joel Series

Contributed by Robert Butler on Aug 14, 2023

We will all be judged but we all will not be condemned. Judgment brings renewal, re-creation and restoration of the world and everything within it. It’s a reset.

So maybe you’ve heard it said, ‘read your bible’ so you tried and failed. Our hope as leaders is that all of us will pick up God’s word and come to understand the true nature of God.

Point Them To Jesus

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Apr 22, 2020

Churches easily get struck in a rut and decline. John the Baptist serves as a model for vital ministry: focus on Jesus above all else.

Last week we started looking at the ministry of John the Baptist. He was a prophet. He cared for the spiritual health of his nation with all of his heart. He saw clearly what needed to be done and he spoke out what people needed to hear, boldly, without any sugar coating. His boldness was what ...read more

I Wander As I Wander

Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 13, 2025

Wandering ends when we trust God more than our fears, letting His presence lead our hearts out of old circles and into promise.

There’s a phrase that has been turning over in my heart—one you might recognize, though not quite in the form you learned it. We know the old carol, “I Wonder as I Wander.” But somewhere along the way, in the wilderness seasons of my own life, it became this: “I wander as I wander.” Not poetic. ...read more

Subject: God’s Answer For The Dead Situations Of Life

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Aug 14, 2025

God's Spirit Is Poured Onto A Wilderness Series

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Jun 5, 2022

The Spirit is poured out from on high, “and the wilderness becomes a fruitful field.” It’s like the change from a dry desert into garden land. When God sends his Spirit, He begins to produce good fruits. That’s the sure effect of his work: a harvest for God.

If you looked back on the thirty-two chapters of Isaiah before our text, what would stand out about the people of God? How could we describe the nation of Judah in this book, and what they’ve shown themselves to be like? It’s not a flattering picture. Back in the very first chapter, the very first ...read more
