    What Is The Value Of Children In The Church?

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Sep 7, 2021
     | 3,669 views

    Children of the church can be viewed as those who are new to the church. Why will the church leaders not listen to these people? Time to leave power behind and lead!

    Mark 10:13 And they were bringing children to Him so that He might touch them; but the disciples rebuked them. 14 But when Jesus saw this, He was indignant and said to them, "Permit the children to come to Me; do not hinder them; for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. 15 ...read more

    In this message we will see that the church that Jesus intended is made up of people who are living their lives on mission - and a life lived on mission begins with BELONG.

    BELONG #BecomingTheChurchHeIntended I want to start off our time today by reading three passages that pretty much set up where we are heading this morning. The first is from Isaiah chapter 43… But now, O Jacob, listen to the Lord who created you. Great advice btw to listen to the Lord, the one ...read more

    But It’s Only Words

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Aug 10, 2021
     | 2,034 views

    We often dismiss our words because actions are what really matter. This sermon looks at some of the warnings the Scripture gives us about the dangers of our words.

    BUT IT'S ONLY WORDS: Often we think of actions as being serious but words as being insignificant. TAKING OUR WORDS SERIOUSLY: 1. Your words reveal who you are. - Matthew 12:34-35. - We deny this: “I said it but that’s not who I am.” Like when we lie or burst out in anger. 2. Your words ...read more

    Being Prayerful Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Aug 23, 2019
     | 2,955 views

    Recognising that many prayers in the New Testament are in the plural and focus on community, not just individuals, this messages gathers many New Testament Scriptures to teach from Scripture how a church in fellowship together is to be a prayerful church.

    Note to preachers This sermon is a collecting of verses all about prayer. I used a power point presentation as I preached so the verses easily followed one another. On the power point I underlines where the words were in the plural to emphasise the community fellowship aspect of prayer. ...read more

    The Lord keeps our light burning.

    Following Jesus is a marathon, not a sprint. Parable of the sower: Rocky ground, Thorny ground. Too many Christians give up. "It's just too hard." Why? They truly do not trust God. Their own power fails. You, Lord, keep my lamp burning; my God turns my darkness into light. Psalm ...read more

    How we can demonstrate holiness: through our relationships, through our communications, and through our occupations. We can even put it in this way: Holiness at Home, holiness at office, and holiness at public.

    Theme: You Shall Be Holy Text: Leviticus 19:1-18   THE LORD IS GOOD and HIS LOVE ENDURES FOREVER. Introduction: Leviticus is not a narrative book. It is a book of rituals and law codes.

    Think about the power of sharing the Gospel, how it can pierce through the hardest heart and change a person's life. When a person responds to God, it changes their entire trajectory in life and eternal destiny.

    Last week we spoke about the powerful manifestation of the Holy Spirit in the lives of the new believers. The Spirit came down like a mighty rushing wind, filling the room, and filling them personally. That powerful filling overflowed into the streets below as people from every nation heard the ...read more

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 6, 2025

    The story of Achan reminds us that hidden sin always breaks trust, breaks community, and breaks us — but in Christ, even the Valley of Trouble can become a Door of Hope.

    Introduction: This morning, the message is called “Breakin’ Aachan.” Yeah, you heard me right. Because what we’re about to look at is a man who broke trust with God, broke covenant with his people, and in the end… it broke him. But the good news is this: God doesn’t just leave us in the Valley ...read more
