God’s extraordinary miracles: 1- All heard the Word of the Lord 2- Many Illnesses were cured 3- Many openly confessed their evil

The Meaning Of Life

In this passage Paul asks the questions: 1. What is the origin of life? 2. What is the meaning of life? 3. What is the value of life?

TSL 09-02-2015 I’d like to look this morning at the passage appointed as the Epistle today from Colossians 1:1-14. In it, as Rodney Buchanan has said Paul answers three basic questions: 1. What is the origin of life? 2. What is the meaning of life? 3. What is the value of life? But let ...read more

"Be Prayerful” (A Communion Message) Series

Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Nov 18, 2010

Our prayer life is a indicator of our reliance upon God. God’s will for each of us is that we so rely on Him that prayer is a spontaneous activity throughout our daily life as individuals and throughout our weekly activities as a church family.

Last time, we thought together about how it is God’s will for each of His children to be joyful. Now today, I want us to spend some time reflecting on the second thing that Paul says is God’s will for each of us - v. 17. There are two ways in which this needs to be applied: 1. It must be applied ...read more

Even If He Doesn’t

Contributed by Andrew Drummond on Dec 7, 2009

Would you worship God even if He didn’t respond to your request? It’s a tough question to answer, but our worship should not be contingent on what He does.

We are often moved by people who have great stories of courage in difficult circumstances. It takes a certain resolve to be able to stand in the face of suffering or danger and not give an inch. “A man in Dundee, Sctoland, was confined to bed for forty years, having broken his neck in a fall at age ...read more

The Blessings Of Hardships

Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Aug 26, 2019

Jesus said he came to, "send fire on the earth." This sermon takes a unique approach on this idea and uses the fire metaphor as a purging of the things inside us that hinder us from becoming who we can be through God.

The Blessing of Hardships Since this Gospel reading is intense, I thought I’d begin by admitting something kind of funny about it. When I read it this week, I pictured Jesus at a Charlie Daniels concert singing, “Fire on the mountain run boys run.” It also made me wonder, “… how am I supposed ...read more
