Seven Sayings From The Empty Tomb

Contributed by Don Emmitte on Apr 15, 2014

The "sayings" each represent a word of hope and encouragement to anyone who would turn to Christ and the power of the resurrection. These are words to live by because they are words of life! That’s what the Cross and the Resurrection mean for us!

Good Friday 2014

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Apr 24, 2014

This is a hybrid between a sermon, a remembrance of the night before Jesus died and a mini drama. It mostly consists of walking through the events of that day in order to never forget why Jesus said, "Do this in remembrance of Me."

(This is not a word-for-word manuscript except for the "readings". The pastor or leader is expected to elaborate on different points as the Lord moves him or her to do so. God bless you.) Opening Prayer Introduction to the evening: Just as the Jews recount the Passover on this night we will be ...read more

Mother's Day: I Have Been Reminded

Contributed by Melvin Newland on May 14, 2014

The sermons I used to preach years ago on Mother's Day just don't fit very well today. So let me suggest some things that describe what I think motherhood is, & what the home ought to be.
