    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Nov 24, 2022
     | 1,133 views

    Mourning is the first step on the journey back to God.

    Mourning is what happens when your eyes are opened, your heart is opened, to something so manifestly wrong with your world that you can neither bear it, ignore it, or affect it. Mourning is the first step on the journey back to God. I recently listened to a very interesting conversation about ...read more

    Controlling Your Power Plant - Working Your Tongue God's Way Series

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jul 13, 2023
     | 1,593 views

    If we would admit it, believers can have all kinds of problems with their tongues sometimes, but Christians, we can do better. By God's grace we can start new habits in our speech. Our tongue is like a power plant, believers should control their tongues to work God's way.

    Sermon - Control Your Tongues to Work God's Way Scripture: Ephesians 4:29-32 “Don’t use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them. 30 And do not bring sorrow to God’s Holy Spirit by the way you ...read more

    The Bible tells us that when Jesus returns to earth, he will physically raise all those who have died, giving them back the bodies they lost at death.

    Easter 3B The Gospel today makes us ask ourselves one fundamental question, an essential question in the Easter Season: how would you react if Jesus appeared to you? Would you recognize him? In the First Reading, Saint Peter tells the Jews that they didn’t recognize the author of life, their ...read more

     | 9,010 views

    Paul writes to encourage these new believers that Jesus was coming back for those who were trusting in Him, and for those who had died trusting in Him. They did not need to have hopeless sorrow over their departed loved ones who died knowing Jesus

    Encouraging Words for Troubled Times 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 Intro: To the average person you might meet downtown or on the street, the idea that Jesus is coming back for all who believe in Him is a crazy one! In fact, some would put you in the same category as the followers of David Koresh or ...read more

    This sermon challenges individuals to step out of their comfort zones and embrace God's plan, inspired by the Prayer of Jabez before it became popular.

    We all have our comfort zones, where we feel safe and satisfied. But staying in our comfort zones can make us complacent and distant from God. Jabez, however, prayed a powerful prayer that challenged him to step out of his comfort zone. Let's take a closer look at his prayer. Jabez's place in ...read more

    If you’ve been born of the Spirit, the Holy Spirit is your holy Helper, who will always be with you while doing His work within you.

    This topic makes me think of a book I read some time ago called, “The Forgotten God: Reversing our Tragic Neglect of the Holy Spirit.” Here’s something the author said: “From my perspective, the Holy Spirit is tragically neglected and, for all practical purposes, forgotten.

    The Secret Of Priorities: How Seeking God Brings Everything Else

    Contributed by Antonio Manaytay on Apr 6, 2025
     | 125 views

    This sermon talks about how seeking God first, His kingdom and His righteousness, leads to provision.

    Life constantly tempts us to chase after many things — success, security, approval, comfort. Jesus knew this. In Matthew 6, He addresses our human anxiety about daily needs — food, clothing, and tomorrow. Then He drops a revolutionary command: “But seek first the kingdom of God and His ...read more
