Not Seeing But Believing

Contributed by Robert Gauthier on Apr 16, 2012

While we will not be able to place our our finger or hands in the wounds of Christ. We still need to believe that He lives. Our Salvation is incomplete if Christ remained death and buried in the tomb. Because He lives we are changed people, because He l

Rising Above The Turkeys Series

Contributed by Vic Folkert on Mar 23, 2018

When people try to make changes, other people may hold them back. As Jacob tries to overcome his scheming nature, Laban drags him down. God intervenes, so that Jacob can rise above that old turkey, Laban, and his own nature as well.

RISING ABOVE THE TURKEYS—Genesis 30:25-31:55 “I could soar like an eagle, if I didn’t have to deal with so many turkeys.” My uncle raised turkeys. Turkeys are pretty stupid. They are always crowding each other, pecking at each other, fighting over food, so they can get big enough to be ...read more

All New

Contributed by Doane Brubaker on Jan 14, 2008

When we live in ways consistent with our old sinful nature we’re like an old car that no longer exhibits the beauty and functions of its original design. That all changes when we receive a new life, a new nature, a new heart and a new spirit.

Prayer: Lord, please renew your church. Let her beauty be seen as she reflects your radiance. Empower her to serve the purposes for which you made her. Lord, please renew each of us that our lives will reflect your image, glory and beauty. Renew us to accomplish the work for which you designed ...read more

Sermon # 24 - God Gives Many Chances Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 6, 2024

Though Jonah disobeyed and ran from God, the Lord gave him a second chance. No one is too bad or too far gone to return back to the loving Lord who alone can change and transform a sinner into a saint, and use such a one to fulfill His mighty purposes.

We read in Jonah 3:1, “Then the word of the LORD came to Jonah the second time, saying,” (ESV) God had called Jonah to accomplish a huge task. Jonah chose to disobey, and undertook a voyage which the Lord disrupted by sending a mighty tempest. As the ship was tossed about in the midst of the ...read more

What Has Become Of Sin?

Contributed by Damien Saylor on Dec 8, 2019

Throughout History Sin has been a topic that we know what it is, & we don’t talk about it. We know not to do it, or encourage others to do it. What’s changed? Sin has become so open & welcome!

Sermon- What has become of sin? - In studying Hosea we talked a little about the openness of sin before the fall of northern Israel. - The way sin works is, it comes in as a mere thought. Then comes the response to the thought, & sin is produced. Then when sin is produced, ...read more

A New Name

Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jan 5, 2003

As we think about the new year, we need to see that: 1. God is always doing a new thing. 2. Only God can bring about real change. 3. God’s new name for us means a new beginning.

I love to read the comics, and one of my favorites used to be “Calvin and Hobbes.” Calvin and Hobbes are talking about the new year when Calvin says, “I’m getting disillusioned with these new years. They don’t seem very new at all Each new year is just like the old year Here another year has ...read more

Back To The 1960s Down Memory Lane, Then Back To The Present! Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 31, 2025

Promises Kept....pentecost Fire
