    Giving To Others Series

    Contributed by Derek Geldart on Jan 21, 2024
     | 1,510 views

    What would it take to convince you to make time to serve the Lord? What would it take to get you to reprioritize your goals and dreams to no longer be inwardly focused but other focused? In other words what would it take to get you to share the same comfort you have received from Christ with others?

    Let's consider God's 5 investment funds; these reflect the 5 purposes of the church (5 investment funds comes from Rick Warren at: https://pastors.com/five-funds/)

    HoHum: For many years, soft drink and milk companies reused their bottles. Each bottle had it’s own deposit created to motivate people to return them. Buy a soft drink, pay a deposit, and get it back when the bottle was returned. Later, ways were found to make plastic bottles that did not need to ...read more

    There are many amazing stories that surround the life of Jesus, but this event is one that teaches us about having a courageous faith by listening to Jesus.

    Keys of a Courageous Faith: Listen To Jesus Mark 9:2-8 Introduction In the month of February we are affirming that Courageous faith always finds its strength in knowing the presence of Christ, hearing his Word, and following his example. Last week we looked at two miraculous stories as Jesus fed ...read more

    Based on Philippians 1:19-30 - Challenges hearers to realize that we live in joy when we live in Christ.

    “TO LIVE IS CHRIST” Phil. 1:19-30 FBCF – 5/4/25 Jon Daniels INTRO – How many of you here today want to have more joy in your life? Seems to be a scarce commodity these days.

     | 1,176 views

    A healthy church functions like a well-orchestrated body—each member contributing uniquely, speaking truth in love, and allowing God's Word to transform our community from within.

    Healthy Church Growing Together in Christ Introduction A healthy church isn't merely a gathering of individuals under one roof but a living organism where every member functions in harmony toward a divine purpose. In Ephesians 4:15-16, Paul uses the metaphor of a body to describe the church, ...read more

    These Three

    Contributed by Tarran Dookie on Jul 13, 2024
     | 735 views

    God is triune and the Bible often has references to groups of three persons that God used to accomplish His purposes. Examples would be Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and Peter, James and John. Let us explore some trios of men found in the Bible.

    THESE THREE (by brother Tarran Dookie) ABRAHAM, ISAAC AND JACOB Matt 22:31-32 But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of ...read more

     | 783 views

    When we come to the faith and are baptised, we are forever held in Jesus’ arms.

    Only a few Sundays ago, I preached on the story of Jesus picking up a little child and holding him in his arms (Mark 9:30-37) St. Mark did not name the child. But guess what? A tradition in the church says the child is none other than Ignatius, a native of Syria. This is the boy who later became ...read more

    Sermon # 1 - God Of Truth And Love Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 20, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 607 views

    In a world that thrives on lies, we believe in a God of truth who admonishes us to think on things that are true and to implement these in our lives. Only with the Lord Jesus is there true forgiveness for our sins, reconciliation and acceptance.

    We read in Philippians 4:8, “Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.” (ESV) God has graciously gifted to ...read more

    Parables Of The Kingdom – The Third - The Mustard Seed - Part 4 Of 4 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 17, 2025
     | 189 views

    We determine where this mustard seed parable fits into Church History and its relationship to the church at Pergamum. Mainly we look at a number of practical issues in being overcomers in a world infiltrated by these foul birds of the air.

    PARABLES OF THE KINGDOM – THE THIRD - THE MUSTARD SEED - PART 4 of 4 We continue from last time and begin with practical matters to help prevent the evil of the mustard seed for gaining control. These will help in being overcomers. COMING DOWN TO PRACTICAL ISSUES The mustard seed started ...read more

    Forging Our Faith

     | 350 views

    "Forging our Faith" involves the ways in which trials, demands, delays, and daily dependence on God shape and reinforce our reliance on His promises and power. Faith is not developed in a vacuum but in the context of real-world challenges ...

    The Wounds That Won

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 22, 2025
     | 248 views

    Christ’s wounds transformed evil into redemption; His blood conquered sin, and His love still calls sinners home to eternal victory.

    It was early morning on a highway outside the city when traffic stopped for a terrible sight. A delivery truck had struck a small car and pushed it off the road. Within moments, a few drivers left their vehicles, running toward the wreck. One man, a paramedic on his way home, crawled into the ...read more

    Feed The Flock

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 3, 2025
     | 203 views

    God calls pastors to shepherd His flock willingly, humbly, and faithfully—feeding souls, guarding hearts, and awaiting the unfading crown from the Chief Shepherd.

    There is a peculiar ache that only a pastor knows. It’s the ache that comes from carrying both the Word of God and the weight of His people. It’s the midnight burden that wakes you when everyone else sleeps. It’s the sound of the phone ringing when your own heart is still raw from yesterday’s ...read more

    Sometimes I get the answer I expected. Sometimes I get the answer I dreaded. Job had to learn to trust God's plan, not by emotions and circumstances --- BY FAITH.

    27. The Kingdom Parables – The Seventh – The Dragnet – Part 3 Of 6 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Dec 19, 2025
     | 88 views

    In the Dragnet parable, we see how it related to the seventh city of the seven churches John wrote to. That was Laodicea. We take a look at the background for Laodicea, and then we begin to look into the letter that was sent to the church in Revelation 3. This is the lukewarm church.

    27. THE KINGDOM PARABLES – THE SEVENTH – THE DRAGNET – PART 3 OF 6 THE DRAGNET - LAODICEA BACKGROUND AND LETTER In every Parable of the Kingdom, we have seen that each Parable remarkably fitted the church from Revelation chapters 2 and 3 that matched that Parable.
