Taking God For Granted

Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Nov 27, 2025

Are we truly devoted to God whole heartedly no matter what? Or are we only Christianity to see what's in it for us? Are we taking God for granted or are we humble before him? Today, I want us to search our souls and our hearts for the answers to these questions as we dive into the Gospel.

The problem with our world today is not with a God who has never failed and is faithful from generation to generation. The problem in the world today are the hearts of evil men who take God for granted. And today, we turn to Psalms 78, and we see a chapter in Israel's history in which, time ...read more

John 1:1-5 Series

Contributed by Jake Andrews on Jul 29, 2025

When John begins his Gospel, he doesn’t waste any time getting to the truth.Before he tells us what Jesus did,
Before he shows us where Jesus went,
Before he records a single miracle or message—
He tells us who Jesus is. Because you’ll never understand what Jesus did until you know who Jesus is.

How Do You Answer Jesus?

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Feb 4, 2021

What is our reaction to the Saviour? What do we do with the message of Jesus Christ? That’s a good question for us, who hear and read often about the coming of Jesus in the flesh and about his dying on the cross. So what do we do now? How do treat the message of the gospel?

In this world there are scientists of all kinds. So many people, researching so many areas of knowledge. And among these many scientists, there are those who study human behaviour.

Stand Your Ground! Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Jun 21, 2021

Message teaches the practical application of the metaphor of armor in Eph. 6:10-17. Christians are in a spiritual battle simply because they are Christians. In an increasingly antichristian culture this teaching becomes even more essential.

The title of this message is: Stand Your Ground! There are times and season when the devil’s assaults against believers are more intense than at other times. Scripture not only tells us to be prepared for such times, but also tells us how to be prepared. That’s our subject today. I am an optimist. ...read more

From Bethlehem To Golgotha: A Christmas Story In The Psalms Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Dec 17, 2024

To prepare our hearts and minds for Christmas, we are tracing the Old Testament predictions of the Messiah. These are often called the Messiah predictions. I invite you to turn in your Bibles to Psalm 22. Today, we continue a series entitled The Essence of Christmas, which just happens to be the ...read more

Jesus And The Woman At The Well Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Apr 29, 2024

Nathanial Hawthorn wrote The Scarlet Letter nearly two centuries ago. Hester Prynne was a young lady who had a child out of wedlock. As punishment for her adultery, she was forced to wear a scarlet letter A on her dress. The Women by the Well didn’t wear such a letter, but she might as well have.

There is not telling as to the extraordinary outcomes when the church comes together to pray. The only way we can assure in a revival, and the powerful move of the Holy Spirit is through prayer.

We read in Acts 4:31, “When they finished praying, the place where they were meeting was shaken.
