    Open House

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Aug 17, 2023
     | 1,139 views

    When God calls people to us, it is our job to gather them in his name and share the joy he provides for all in his house of prayer.

    Almost 40 years ago, July or August of 1984, I was at my very first Bible camp. It was the annual women’s retreat for the Northwest Women’s Caucus of the Evangelical Free Church of America, and I was scared to death. Well, maybe that was putting it a little strongly, but I was pretty nervous. You ...read more

     | 1,069 views

    The point is Jesus has broken our chains, and all we have to do is get up and walk out of our cell.

    The Great Escape – 1 Text: Acts 12:6-11 Introduction 1. When all I see is the battle, you see my victory When all I see is the mountain, You see a mountain moved And as I walk through the shadow, Your love surrounds me There's nothing to fear now for I am safe with You. So, when I fight, ...read more

    Jesus led the disciples to a deeper understanding of His identity, His purpose in coming into this world, and His plan for the building of His church.

    Matt 16:13-20 Knowing Christ 13Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?” 14And they said, “Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” 15He said to them, “But ...read more

    Power Hungry Series

     | 1,267 views

    Bad things happen. Bad things happen to good people, and bad things happen to bad people. Why?

    POWER HUNGRY Bad things happen. Bad things happen to good people, and bad things happen to bad people. Bad things happen. Sometimes the cause is obvious: greed and hatred, poverty and ignorance, all cause suffering in greater or lesser degrees, and we can point to sin as the reason. But ...read more

    Broken Speech Series

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Nov 24, 2022
     | 1,180 views

    God’s interest isn’t limited to whether or not you are swearing falsely. God’s interest is in whether or not you are speaking falsely.

    I’ve been racking my brains all week to find a lead-in to this week’s commandment without referring to politics. But I keep coming back to it like a moth to a candle. At least we’re no longer right in the middle of actual accusations of perjury... but the question of truth vs. political advantage ...read more

    Worry Warts Series

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Nov 24, 2022
     | 1,348 views

    If you really believe that God is in charge, and that He loves you and will meet your needs, then you can live in faith rather than in fear.

    Anxiety is no joke. Maybe that’s why there are so many jokes about it. Take the old Peanuts cartoon that shows Linus coming up to Charlie Brown, dragging his blan-ket as he observes, “You look kinda depressed.” “I worry about school a lot,” Charlie replies. Then he adds, “I worry about my worrying ...read more

    Bragging Rights Series

     | 1,622 views

    Suffering is part of the process of changing us into people fit for the kingdom of God.

    Everybody knows that Christians shouldn’t boast, right? Some people are so leery of boasting that they hide the gifts God has given them in the mistaken notion that God will be pleased with their humility. But that’s just as bad as seeking every opportunity to grab the limelight, because God can’t ...read more

    It's A Wonderful Life Because It's A Wonderful Christmas

    Contributed by Terry Hovey on Dec 22, 2022
     | 1,489 views

    What would it be like if like in the movie It's a Wonderful Life, Satan had been able to stop the birth of Jesus or end His life before adulthood?

    It’s a Wonderful Life Because It’s a Wonderful Christmas! In 1946, the movie, It’s a Wonderful Life came out and quickly became an American Christmas film classic. The movie was based on a short story by Philip Van Doren Stern in 1843, called The Greatest Gift. In the movie, George Bailey (played ...read more

    Shaking & Moving

     | 1,598 views

    The whole world was shaken and changed because of what God did. Have you been shaken? Have you changed?

    When I preach from the lectionary, which I do most of the time unless I'm working on a series, one of the first things I do is to try and find the common thread among the different passages. And on this glorious day when we celebrate the resurrection of our Lord, the central message is ...read more

    Eternity—i Got Heaven On My Mind.

     | 3,956 views

    Bend thy soul to study eternity, busy thyself about the life to come, habituate thyself to such contemplation, and let not those thoughts be seldom and cursory (Hasty), but be thyself in heavens delight.

    Eternity—I Got Heaven On My Mind. 1 Corinthians 2:9NIV In his classical devotional book titled the Saints Everlasting Rest, English Puritan Pastor and Arthur Richard Baxter 1615-1691 wrote, why are not our hearts continually set on heaven? Why dwell we not there in constant contemplation?… bend ...read more

    The Creation Of Man And Woman (Part 1 ) Series

    Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on Sep 30, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,751 views

    The common misconception is that Chapter 2 is an epilogue or secondary insertion of what may have happened at creation. It is used by those who try to impose evolution into the creation narrative to justify their stance.

    Dr. Bradford Reaves Crossway Christian Fellowship Hagerstown, MD, USA www.mycrossway.org View this and other messages at: https://mycrossway.churchcenter.com/channels/8118 I started off my message last week issuing a challenge of being more intentional in your study of Scripture.

    Joseph: A Dreamer In Prison Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jun 12, 2022
     | 5,452 views

    Joseph did not need to wait until he was standing before Pharaoh and put in charge of the whole land. Faithfulness to God is always the right path. Joseph needed to trust God the whole time he was the forgotten prisoner. And he did!

    There are so many aspects to the story of Joseph. He is the favorite son of the Patriarch Jacob. His brothers burn with jealousy and hatred toward him because his ten older brothers know he is the favored one of his father. The special ornamented coat Jacob gave Joseph made that evident. The Joseph ...read more

    Moses didn't want to do what God asked. He didn't think he was worthy or capable... and he was right. So what made the difference in his life?

    Years ago there was a comedian named Milton Berle who wrote this poem: “I'd rather be a could-be if I cannot be an are; because a could-be is a maybe who is reaching for a star. I'd rather be a has-been than a might-have-been, by far; for a might have-been has never been, but a has was once ...read more
