    Tricking Or Treating God Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Oct 22, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,440 views

    We should all be “treating” the Lord with our devotion and reverence. But how many of us are trying to “trick” Him? How many of us are doing things to appease God, while at the same time we’re pleasing the world or ourselves?

And what’s that expression that kids say while they’re standing on ...read more

    Don't Follow Folly

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Feb 2, 2021
     | 2,424 views

    Will we live on the streets of “sin city,” laying our head down in the gutter of wickedness? Or will we listen to the invitation of wisdom, to follow in God’s ways and live in the glory of his eternal mansions?

    How wonderful all things were in the beginning! When we read Genesis 1, we hear this theme repeated: “And God saw that it was good.” Time and again, culminating with this declaration on the sixth day: “God saw all that he had made, and it was very good” (v 31). It was very good. Man and woman ...read more

    Where’s your fruit, Church? Maybe the world doesn’t see much fruit from us because we’re hiding out like Moses and making excuses instead of jumping into action. God sometimes asks us to do difficult things. Will we trust Him? Do we respond in faith or with excuses when God calls?

    Last week, we heard a powerful message on the topic of faith and works... about how faith without works is dead. The pastor said, “Focus on God, and then He through you will produce the fruit... You can’t do anything for God... but God through you can do amazing, amazing, amazing things!” He ...read more

    This message stresses the importance of worship that flows from appreciation love. Praise can flow from the lips of those who gather for worship, regardless of their circumstances.

    In one electrifying moment a hush would fall over the congregants. It was the moment for which they had prepared themselves. The priest would meet them at the entrance to the temple, motion for the people to stand and call them to worship. Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth. Worship the ...read more

    Unexpected Events (Part 1) Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 7, 2021
     | 5,532 views

    Pivotal events can happen unexpectedly in our lives. If we are able to accept that fact and (at the same time) trust God with the changes that accompany those events, we will manage life better. This message explores unexpected events in Moses's life.

    Today I want to talk about two unexpected events in Moses’s life. One was a glorious encounter with God that set him on the course for the last 40 years of his life. The other was a painful experience that equipped him to fulfill the mission given to him in the first encounter. In both cases the ...read more

    The Lord Shows His Excellence In All The Earth

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Sep 12, 2021
     | 1,872 views

    God’s excellence shines so clearly in all his works. The Lord could have crushed those who bore his image when we sinned, yet God was mindful of us. The glorious God who first stooped down to create us, then stooped down to save us through his only Son.

    As we lead busy lives each week, we need to slow down. In the middle of the activity of work and school and home life and church life, we need to pause and ponder. For how often do we really think about who God is, who we are, and what to do with the few days on earth that God has given? It’s easy ...read more
