    As Jonah travailed in the belly of the fish he called out to God knowing that only God could help him. In the midst of all the trials, difficulties and challenges that come our way do we call out to God? Here’s what happens when we do so.

    We read in Jonah 2:1-2, “From inside the fish, Jonah prayed to the LORD his God: When I was in trouble, LORD, I prayed to you, and you listened to me. From deep in the world of the dead, I begged for your help, and you answered my prayer.” (CEV) Jonah called out to the Lord his God from inside the ...read more

    Some Thoughts On Depopulation

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Nov 23, 2024
     | 357 views

    The world's current population is somewhere between 7 and 8 billion. Some think that's too many and have openly advocated for depopulation measures. All they need to do is wait for the Great Tribulation and they'll come close to getting their wish!

    Introduction: A number of people, mostly elites, and increasingly calling out for more people to die! The justification, if I understand it correctly, is that there are too many people on this planet to be kept (the “sustainability” argument) and/or there isn’t enough of the right _kind_ of people. ...read more

    Who you FOLLOW, and who LISTEN TO, will determine where you go… and where you end up. Psalm 1 is telling us to listen to God and trust Him... because the alternative is listening to the wicked, sinful and scoffers of this world.

    In the book of Numbers (13th chapter) we’re told that Moses - after leading Israel out of captivity in Egypt - had finally brought the people to edge of the Promised Land. And before they go it, God tells Moses to send 12 spies into the promised land. So they select 12 men to slip into Canaan, ...read more

    This message does not take after the movie; therefore, our topics won’t be about honor, code, or loyalty even as great as they are. Instead, the message is for everyone, especially men and fathers, and looks at our need to lean, lead, and love.

    “Whoever humbles themselves like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven”. It is giving up claims to power and status and knowing one’s total dependence on God that counts as greatness in the kingdom of heaven.

    Sermon: The Path to Kingdom Greatness Scripture: Matthew 18:1-11 “About that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who is greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven?” Jesus called a little child to him and put the child among them.

    That’s what a shepherd is. That’s what a shepherd does. The Shepherd speaks to us with a voice that we cannot ignore. He says, “Relax, I’m your Shepherd. Don’t think about another thing. I have everything under control. Relax. No worries.”

    We all want people to tell us the truth. There was a police officer that pulled a car over and he walked up to the window and said to the man driving, “Sir, can I see your driver's license?” The man said, “Sure. What is the problem officer?” The officer said, “Well, you were going 75 mph in a ...read more

    Abraham and Sarah, and Martha and Mary received the one thing they needed—God’s presence in their lives through his Word. Let’s ask God the Holy Spirit to do the same thing for us today and every day.

    God came to visit them. In two of our Scripture readings for this Sunday two pairs of believers hosted God in their homes (well, to be exact one was a tent). Abraham and Sarah welcomed the LORD God who took on a human body to be able to visit them on a personal level. They heard God’s promises ...read more
