    There are times in our lives when faith seems more essential than others. In fact, we will eventually encounter a season where faith is all we have. We must learn to walk by faith as we follow the Lord and serve Him.

    Series: Walking by Faith #1 The Call of Abraham Genesis 12: 1-9 As believers we often speak of faith. Most are aware of the value of genuine faith, but we often find it difficult to practice faith. I was reminded of the lyrics to the popular song – God on the Mountain. “We talk of ...read more

    Consider your calling. Glory in nothing but the Cross!

    A CALL TO BOAST? 1 Corinthians 1:18-31. The Apostle Paul has established that the preaching of the cross was considered foolishness by this world’s wisdom (1 Corinthians 1:18). Yet God has rendered foolish the wisdom of this world by the ‘foolishness’ of preaching (1 Corinthians 1:20). ...read more

    Knowing the end of his life is near, Jesus needs to remake His disciples’ understanding of what their responsibilities are as they await His return. And so Jesus tells them a story that had a familiar ring: The Good Samaritan

    The Call to Faithfulness Luke 19:11-27 In Luke 19, it is late winter and Jesus is on His way to Jerusalem for His last Passover and the last week of His earthly life. He has just arrived in Jericho, the lowest city on the face of the earth which is 1000 feet below sea level. That makes Jericho ...read more

    Interactive games and technology are drawing people into and alternative reality, one that cannot be trusted. They're putting blind faith into these distractions instead of finding reasons to put faith in God.

    Called to Faithfulness Hebrews 11:1-6 NKJV Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2 For by it the elders obtained a good testimony. 3 By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made ...read more

    How long, Lord?

    A CALL TO PATIENCE. James 5:7-10. ‘Patience is a virtue,’ suggests the old adage. Yet when we pray for more patience what do we get? We get more affliction! This subject was mooted early in James’ epistle, when he somewhat surprisingly suggested that we ‘should count it all joy’ when we fall ...read more

    II. CALLED TO BE HOLY. A. CALLED TO BELONG TO JESUS. Romans 1:6. Paul numbers the saints in Rome with those of all nations who are “obedient to the faith” (Romans 1:5).

    If the Son shall make us free, we shall be free indeed.

    III. CALLED TO FREEDOM. A. SET FREE - TO SERVE GOD! Exodus 10:24-26. It is somewhat ironic that Pharaoh would eventually release the children of Israel from bondage in Egypt that they might go and “serve the LORD” (Exodus 10:24).

    A Call For Justice

     | 13,226 views

    Be careful what you ask for when you make a complaint to God. Sometimes God delays bringing justice to the world because the price is so high. Sometimes justice is brought about by unjust people. Be prepared to let God decide when's the right time to act.

    The cry for justice is a common occurrence in our world isn't it? Injustice takes place at all sorts of levels and we wonder, why does God allow it? It's like what we saw in Psalm 73 a few weeks ago. Why do the wicked prosper? Why do the powerful get away with taking advantage of the weak and ...read more

    Called To Serve

    Contributed by Michael Bates on Sep 14, 2023
     | 9,853 views

    Every Christian is called to serve in the ministry. Only a select few are called into full-time pastoral ministry, but many others are called to serve God in other capacities. This short sermon explores that calling a little further.

    The Bible says in 1 Peter 4:10-11: Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength ...read more
