    COVID-19 has kept church building doors closed. Are you feeling spiritually isolated? Let God’s words speak to your heart and mind. You are loved, missed and desired. The church is still strong and united.

    Spiritual Isolation (2 Kings 5:15-17) Intro: A. I absolutely love the story of Philip and the Ethiopian in Acts 8. I love how God connected this Ethiopian to a Christian to help him in his spiritual journey. Just walk back through that story for a moment. This Secretary of the ...read more

    WITHOUT GOD IN THOUGHT WORD AND DEED, WE ARE AS JESUS SAID, “THE BLIND LEADING THE BLIND” AND BOTH FALL IN THE DITCH!

    Spiritual Blindness “All I know is this: once I was blind, now I can see.” John 9:25 How many times have you read a story, watched a picture and became so engrossed that you were a part of the action taking place?

    True spirituality, and our confession of Jesus.

    CONCERNING SPIRITUALS. 1 Corinthians 12:1-3. “Now concerning spirituals,” begins this passage (1 Corinthians 12:1). This may be masculine, ‘spiritual people’.

    Spiritual Thinking

    The apostle Paul lays out this subject for us in the book of Colossians. First he says, “Set your hearts on things above.” The NIV is the only translation to use the word “hearts” in verse 1 here. Almost all the other translations use the word “seek.”

    Spiritual Thinking Colossians 3:1-3 Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. (2) Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. (3) For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in ...read more

    Jehoash showed little interest in what he was told to do. He was going through the motions but with little faith. He did not take God seriously or the Word of God seriously. Elisha was the one who showed faith in God.

    We saw the reign of Jehoahaz last week; we move on to the reign of his son Jehoash today, Jehu’s 2nd generation. • God promised Jehu 4 generations on the throne of Israel. • Let’s read again 2 Kings 13:10-13. --------------------------------------- Like his father, Jehoash “did evil in the ...read more

    Spiritual Spinach

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Aug 1, 2016
     | 16,216 views

    What spinach did for Popeye physically is what God can do for us spiritually. However, that doesn’t mean it will be instantaneous like Popeye's reaction; but it will be supernatural nonetheless. Let's see how we can get some of God's spiritual spinach.

    SPIRITUAL SPINACH Isaiah 40:27-31 Popeye. What spinach did for Popeye physically is what God can do for us spiritually. Now, I need to incorporate a disclaimer here: just because the Lord is the source of supernatural power doesn’t mean there’s going to be an instantaneous reaction ...read more

    Spiritual Fruit Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Nov 24, 2015
     | 8,333 views

    Your life should be more than a flurry of activity. You were meant to produce spiritual fruit. Paul uses the imagery of fruit trees to illustrate this. What you want out of a fruit tree is fruit. In the Christian life what we want is spiritual fruit.

    Wouldn’t it be great if every time that you received a harsh criticism you returned it with a response of kindness? That is what it is like for the believer who has the fruit of the Spirit manifested in their life. Wouldn’t it be great the next time you are wronged, instead of rage ...read more

If the last three sermons have hit home with you then you are likely encouraged, even excited, to serve the Lord as Christ's ambassadors.
