I walked through a county courthouse square. On a park bench, an old man was sittin’ there. I said, Your old flag pole in leaned a little bit, and that’s a ragged old flag you got sittin’ on it.” “Well,” he said, “I don’t like to brag, but we’re ...read more

Samson: The Weakest Strongman (Part 1) Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Aug 18, 2022

Yes, Samson was the strongest man in the world. But there was a glaring character flaw. No one could defeat Samson matching strength to strength. They did not have to match his strength because all they needed to do was to exploit his inner weakness.

Ask any Sunday School child who is the strongest man in the Bible. There will be no hesitation. It is Samson. The winner of any modern-day strongman competition would not be able to stand against Samson. He was the GOAT, the greatest of all time. He tore a lion apart with his bare hands. There ...read more

Our Self

Contributed by Pastor Steve Zimmerman on Aug 28, 2010

We have become a society centered on

Our Self We all are selfish by nature. The unhappy trend in North America is that self is becoming more and more important. Reality shows on T.V. underline the growth of this attitude; that self is the primary motive of people in this culture. The antics on these shows, we laugh at, but ...read more

Jesus Christ is omnipresent but can we miss His presence in our lives?

Our Scripture passage for the week is Jer. 23:23-24…. “Am I only a God nearby,” declares the LORD, “and not a God far away? Who can hide in secret places so that I cannot see them?” declares the LORD. “Do not I fill heaven and earth?” declares the LORD. What does this mean?? God is omnipresent! ...read more

God Comes Into Our Lives And Transforms Us

Take a house in need of restoration. The walls cracking, roof leaking and the decoration terrible. We are like this home, God comes into our home, he rips out walls, repairs the roof, mends and reorders our house. He makes it something splendid and beyond our wildest dreams.......

I dearly love the letters Paul wrote that are presented in the bible. We heard a short piece from this letter, just 9 verses, but like the letter as a whole they not only pack a real punch in their message, they are relevant to us now.

Being Persecuted

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Aug 2, 2022

Suffering may not be a common topic of conversation in our lives but suffering for the sake of Jesus, being persecuted because we follow Him, is something Jesus told us to expect.

As we live our Christian lives there are a lot of questions that are related to the Christian Life that don't really fall into life and death categories. Questions like: what's your favorite version of the bible? How can I be a better group member? Or the BIG ALL-IMPORTANT QUESTION: if a ...read more

Christ: Our Saviour And Our Example

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Apr 5, 2012

A short talk for Good Friday. I am deeply challenged by Peter reminding us that when suffering for his faith, Jesus did not retaliate and made no threats; and we’re called to follow his example!

When I was at school there was no such thing as an anti-bullying policy, and I think I was on the receiving end of a large amount of abuse, mainly due to my surname, Pidgeon, and my painfully thin physique. As I look back I think I eventually adopted my own personal anti-bullying policy and it went ...read more
