Sermons on Cold Heart:

Rejoice In The Lord Always!

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Jan 16, 2022

The source of our true rejoicing is found only through a right relationship with God! Everything apart from him is crumbling and disappointing. Yet our God is eternal, glorious, lacks in no way, and never fails. So those who enjoy a living fellowship with Christ are given true gladness of heart.

Are we known as a joyful people? Is that the reputation we have, that we’re often rejoicing? Perhaps not. On first impressions, our worship is pretty sombre. In speaking about our faith, most of us are reserved, and we keep our emotions well in check. Even when we have what we call “the celebration ...read more

Who Is Jesus? Series

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Jun 23, 2024

Being born again is not about one’s lineage, religious affiliation, or philanthropic deeds; it requires a total surrender of the heart to Christ, who purchased our redemption with His life. Therefore, I appeal to you as one of Christ’s ambassadors, be reconciled to God before His Son returns!

From Joseph To Moses And Aaron.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 21, 2025

The LORD our God was the One who called for the famine, but He had already sent Joseph ahead of Israel into Egypt. He turned the heart of the Egyptians to hate His people, but sent Moses and Aaron to bring them out of Egypt. He shows Himself Sovereign over all things.

FROM JOSEPH TO MOSES AND AARON. Psalm 105:16-26. 1. The Sending of Joseph. Psalm 105:16-22. PSALM 105:16. It is the LORD our God who “called for a famine upon the land: He brake the whole staff of bread.” Bread, or any staple, is aptly called ‘the staff of life’ – for without his staff man ...read more

What Shall We Do? Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jan 31, 2025

What was it about what Peter preached on Pentecost that cut his audience to the heart and prompted them to ask "What shall we do?" And what can we learn from what he said that can help us be more effective about sharing our faith?

We just read a sermon by the Apostle Peter - a sermon he preached on the day of Pentecost - and it was so powerful that about 3000 people responded by asking: WHAT SHALL WE DO? And then they repented of their sin and were baptized into Christ. Their future was changed because of what Peter said. ...read more

Sermon # 31- Who Is On The Throne? Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 4, 2024

When the King of Nineveh heard the preaching of Jonah and knew that God’s judgement was impending, he got off his throne and humbled himself before God, the King of kings. God must be enthroned in our hearts too and we must allow Him to rule over our lives.

We read in Jonah 3:6, “When the king of Nineveh heard about it, he got up from his throne, took off his robe, put on sackcloth, and sat down in ashes.” (GNB) When the King of Nineveh heard about the impending judgement as preached by the prophet Jonah, he immediately got up from his throne, took ...read more
