The Armour Of God, Part 2

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Sep 27, 2025

We're in a war. God has provided us with armour. We need to think about it carefully if we're going to use it correctly. This second talk looks at the last four pieces of armour.

I’d like to start by reading two short passages from Sir Walter Scott’s novel, Ivanhoe. Ivanhoe is set in the 12th century, a time when soldiers fought with swords and arrows and knights wore chain mail armour. Ivanhoe is a young Saxon knight. He’s fighting alongside Sir Robin Locksley, who turns ...read more

The Three Places

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 1, 2025

In this journey of faith there are three places that we can find ourselves in – a place of bondage, a place of wandering or a place of promise. Each of us can introspect to see where we are and move forward in faith to reach the place of promise, to fulfill God’s purposes

Today’s meditation is based on Joshua 21:43, “So the LORD gave all of the land to Israel that he had promised to give their ancestors, and they took possession and settled there in it.” (ERV) The Lord gave the people of Israel the land that he had promised to their ancestors, and they duly took ...read more

Partner In Grace

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 7, 2025

We are partners in grace—called to work out what God works in, choosing obedience while trusting His power to complete the work He began.

Introduction – God’s Part and Our Part This morning I want to talk about what it means to be a partner in grace—how God and we work together in this journey of salvation. Paul says, “Work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you.” Notice that: two workers, one ...read more

Be Angry, But Do Not Sin!

Contributed by Melvin Newland on Aug 26, 2024

I don’t think you would do anything like that. But have you ever lost your temper? Do you ever do things you wish you hadn't done, or say things you wish you had never said?

When God Was Captured

Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 31, 2024

The Israelites thought of the Ark as a talisman, a charm. The Philistines thought they had captured the God of the Israelites. Both were wrong. We're going to see how God's presence is 1). sacred, 2). brings judgment, and 3). requires decision.

WHEN GOD WAS CAPTURED 1 Sam. 4:1-11; 5:1-11 INTRODUCTION A. THE SICK GOD 1. In SW Asia in the early 1800’s there was a country where once a year, the priests took their idol out of their temple – which they considered a god – and paraded the deity around the city and then took it back to its ...read more

There are a lot of voices in our world today that claim to be speaking for God. How do we discern if what we hear preached is actually a word from God? What does the voice of God sound like?

Sermon # 15 - The Gradual Steps Of Backsliding Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 9, 2024

Jonah walked away from God and landed everyone aboard the ship he travelled in big trouble. Backsliding is a gradual process, but if we repent and turn back to the Lord we can be reconciled and restored to our first love.

We read in Jonah 1:10-12, Then the men were terrified. They knew that he was running away from the LORD, because he had told them. They asked Jonah, "Why have you done this?" The storm was getting worse. So they asked Jonah, "What should we do with you to calm the sea?" He told ...read more

Stop The Leak

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 20, 2025

Wholeness isn’t flawlessness—it’s staying under God’s grace until His love seals every crack and overflows through a life that lasts.

Opening – The Dairy Queen Gospel of Perfection Every now and then, I stop at Dairy Queen for a treat. I order what they call The Perfect Parfait. It’s the one with the soft-serve swirl that stands so straight you’d think Gabriel himself calibrated the nozzle. The young worker rings it up, smiles, ...read more

Joel. God Wants To Give His Mercy And Grace, And To Pour Out His Love On All People. Series

Contributed by Andrew Moffatt on Nov 15, 2025

Nothing like a plague of Biblical proportions to give a nation a bit of a hurry up about returning to God. In Joel's day it was locusts, they had eaten all there was and it was a heads up that; The Day of The Lord was coming. That, and you can't eat what doesn't exist.

Joel. God wants to give his mercy and grace, and to pour out his love on all people. The book of Joel, the third of our minor prophets is a short read. This book of three chapters, is about God confronting and defeating evil. The name Joel while being a short name contains a lot of meaning; ...read more

The House That Wisdom Built Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jul 14, 2024

God tells us to pursue wisdom... but what kind of wisdom should I want, and how can obtain it?

When you build a house you want to be wise about the kind of contractors you hire, the kinds of materials you use, the research you do… and you’ll want to be wise in choosing the location to build the home. This last one can be extremely important… For example, a few years ago a Chicago family ...read more

In times of trouble we seek peace and safety. Where we seek it makes all the difference in the world.

It always seems that I get a request to preach form the Psalms. Today Psalm 11. The Psalms speak to us – we can almost hear ourselves in the Psalms – praising God – mourning our sin – questioning the world – seeking vengeance on our enemies. Before reading let’s introduce some aspects of the ...read more
