    The understanding of Holy Communion comes through experience more than rational thought.

    GOING OUT OF YOUR MIND TEXT: Luke 24:13-35 One of my favorite books for mindless reading is the Science Fiction parody, Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams, probably because it contains one of my favorite illustrations of being mindless. The people of the universe are burning to know ...read more

    This Do In Remembrance Of Me

     | 8,247 views

    Sometimes men put for to many qualifications on this scripture. Jesus said as often as you do this, do it in remembrance of me. Paul repeated the same. I believe the object of community is to reflect back on what the Lord has done for us all.

    In Remembrance of Me Observing the Lord’s Supper Harvest Fellowship Community Church PCG Dale Carter Sr. August 1, 2021 Observing the battle ridden faces of those that set before me today, one can presume that there are many memories behind those beautiful eyes that gleam with thoughts of ...read more

    Very few things in life are unstoppable. The only truly unstoppable force in this world comes from God. The Spirit of God makes His Church, His people, and His purpose unstoppable.

    We have been talking about what it means to be unstoppable. We began this series by thinking about things that are unstoppable. I actually did a Facebook poll a few weeks ago: Name the first three things you think of when you hear the word UNSTOPPABLE. #sermonprep I got lots of interesting ...read more

    There is the lifeline that connects our communion with the Lord but we can slip and fail, and so we slip down that lifeline of communion. Many of the great men of God failed but were wonderfully restored in the comfort of God. What can we lose as we slip? How do we return?

    SLIPPING DOWN THE LIFELINE – BUT NOT TO THE END (we hope) Tales are told of people in rescue attempts trying to hold on to a rope in the stormy sea or raging river and over time their grip lessens and through fatigue they slip further and further down the rescue rope until they disappear.

    We only have one chance to raise our children. I would hate to get to the end of it and have to say, “Boy, that strategy sure didn’t work very well.” It might be ok to try some new ideas out when it comes to decorating the house or golf, but when it comes to children we must not ...read more

    Today’s text is about the stewardship of your soul. Have you been saved or is salvation like a taxi cab ride? There is a relationship beyond your baptism because as it has been said, “your baptism is like a wedding ring”.

    WHERE WILL YOU BE WHEN THE DOOR CLOSES? Text: Matthew 25:1 - 13 The story is told of neighbors having a conversation. The “…were talking over the back fence. “I went to a wedding this weekend,” said one, “but I don’t think the marriage will last.” “Why Not?” asked the other. “well when ...read more

    God calls us in order for us to be in a personal relationship with Him. Why is it that we want to keep Christ at a distance in our lives.

    Psalms 46 is a powerful declaration of the Sovereignty of God over all creation declaring that victory does not come through human might but by His divine power, when what was once stable and secure has crumbled and become chaotic.

    Sometimes our disappointments in life can become God's appointments, so don't let closed doors bother you. The things we think of as failures and problems can often end up being blessings in disguise.

    In life, we often encounter doors of opportunity that open and close before us. But are these doors being opened and closed by God? While the exact phrase "When God shuts one door, He opens another" is not found in the Bible, it aligns with the truth that we will explore in this sermon. We will ...read more
