It's Not Just For Us Series

Contributed by D. Marie Hamilton on Dec 25, 2011

We must take what we learn and what we say in church to let people know that this is not just for us, but others. Others should believe in God based on what we do, not what we say.

It’s Not Just for Us Acts 11:1-9 and 18 NRSV This is the Word of the Lord. Thanks be to God. Let us pray. When I listen to people read the mission and vision statement at church, I often times wonder…do they really believe in the mission and vision statement that they recite every ...read more

Is It Enough Just To Love God

Contributed by Clay Gentry on Aug 7, 2013

Is it enough just to love God? By that we mean, it is enough to be well pleasing to God to simply love Him? Some Christians would say yes, others no, but what does God's word say? That is the focus of this lesson.

Last week I asked a dozen people this simple question, “Is it enough just to love God?” Only two people said “yes it was enough just to love God,” while the other ten emphatically said, “no it’s not, we have to obey Him.” So what is the answer? Is it enough ...read more

Membership Not Required Series

Contributed by Sean Harder on Nov 21, 2013

We may not say there are membership requirements to be a Christian in our churches, but does our behaviour say otherwise? Membership requirements don’t have to be verbally stated, they can be communicated with a look, with avoidance, and so on.

Back in the mid-nineties I was working in the golf business for a couple years. One course I worked at in Vancouver required $75,000 to join and there was about a 3 year waiting list, then it was about $350 a month for monthly dues as well. In the winter I went down to a very exclusive private ...read more

Straight Outta Context: Philippians 4:13 Series

Contributed by Paul Basehore on Sep 16, 2015

Philippians 4:13 does not say that we can literally do anything. What it does say, though, is that a super-powered God will willingly and repeatedly share His strength with us when things get difficult.

Superheroes are a multi-million dollar enterprise. Superhero movies have more than 13 billion dollars in revenue since 1978 -- and that’s just the movies. Comic book sales in 2015 alone have reached 334 million dollars -- and the year’s not even done yet! In addition, the numbers I just ...read more

Stephen Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Mar 11, 2020

If you take away anything from Stephen’s message today, it should be this: Jesus is all you need. Say it with me: “Jesus is all I need.” Say it again: “Jesus is all I need!”

If you saw Stephen on the streets of Jerusalem or in the market, he probably wouldn’t seem very different from you or me. A good man … a good neighbor … a good friend … a hard worker … always ready to help. Maybe a good husband … we don’t know if he was married or not. Lately he had been ...read more

Listen To My Voice Series

Contributed by Amiri Hooker on Apr 25, 2021

The real question for us today is not, “Will God speak to me, to us today?” Instead, will we listen for that voice that is speaking? Jesus doesn’t say, “Listen and maybe I’ll have something to say.”

On this Fourth Sunday of Easter as you look at the lectionary the gospel lesson shifts from historical recounting of the events following to resurrection to Christological reflection. The goal is to assist us as we, like Mary and the disciples, seek to understand what happened and is happening to ...read more

The Power Of Forgivness Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 12, 2021

If you are a genuine Christian, you will be both willing and able to forgive others. According to Jesus, when you say, “I cannot or will not forgive,” you’re essentially saying, “I am thinking about going to hell.”

We are in the last installment of a sermon series entitled Digging Deeper. Our goal is to answer this question: WHAT makes Christianity more “sticky” in some? What is the PROOF that determines if a person truly follows Christ? Or, What makes a Christian a Christian? We lose a lot of items in ...read more

God Will Carry You

Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on Jun 26, 2021

The promises of God are yes and amen in Christ. If God says he will carry and care for you, that is exactly what he will do. You must however play you path by believing whatever he says concerning you.

TEXT: Isaiah 46:4 (NLT) "I will be your God throughout your lifetime— until your hair is white with age. I made you, and I will care for you. I will carry you along and save you." GOD'S PROMISES ARE YES AND AMEN When God makes a promise, he keeps it. When God says something he means ...read more

New Testament Religions

Contributed by Kyle Campbell on Aug 15, 2022

It would be an understatement to say that the religious world is in a state of confusion. With hundreds of denominations in this country and thousands of religions worldwide, it’s sufficient to say that many people simply don’t know what’s going on.

Introduction. You likely know that sin separates us from God (Isaiah 59:1-2). Therefore, in order to get back to God, we need religion. The word “religion” basically means to “tie or bind back to God again.” This fundamental belief in sin and redemption has fueled the development of many varied ...read more

Prophesy Life/ The Masada Mystery.

Contributed by Howard Strickland on Oct 9, 2022

As NT believers what are we saying, “What are we prophesying?” As believers our words actually become God’s word, so what is God saying through you? Are you prophesying words of comfort and deliverance?...

Summary: "The eye cannot say to the hand, "I do not need you!" And the head cannot say to the feet, "I do not need you" (1 Corinthians 12:21).

Father in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, Lord let your will be done on earth as it is done in heaven. I am glad to be a part of your Ministry of Reconciliation.

Save Me Youth Sermon

Contributed by Youth Sermons on Sep 5, 2023

The world’s money says, “Keep me for yourself.” God’s money says, “Save me for a purpose.” We need to find the balance between saving wisely and hoarding, focusing on honoring God with our money.

Today, we're going to talk about money! But before we dive in, let's do a little object lesson. I want you all to imagine you've just won a million dollars. What's the first thing you'd do? Buy a new car? A house for your parents? Or maybe you'd save it all? Imagine you've just won a million ...read more

The Sound Of Cherub Wings Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jan 8, 2017

Ezekiel says the sound of Cherub wings was like the voice of the Almighty. Do you know the role Cherubim played in Scripture? And do you know the message they ultimately protected for God?

During the offering time we played this version of “Ezekiel Saw De Wheel” by The “Vocal Union Quartet” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ceDdAeKIo4E) OPEN: How many of you have ever heard that song before? It was written back in the 1940s by a popular folk singer named Woody Guthrie and has been ...read more

Table Fellowship With Christ

Contributed by Michael Durst on Dec 6, 2007

Why does Jesus want to come in and dine with us as it says in the book of Revelations. Three purposes accomplished through spending time together with Christ.

I love spoons. Not only do they help mix your chocolate milk, but they are essential in one of my favorite games, which just happens to share their name. Spoons, if you are not familiar with the game, don’t worry, you will learn about it this morning. I decided it would be better to make a short ...read more

What Do We Do When God's Answer To Our Prayer Is "No"? Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Mar 27, 2014

God will always answer our prayers in one of 3 ways: Sometimes, His answer is YES … Sometimes it’s WAIT … and sometimes it’s NO … We are happy when God says YES. We can get impatient when He says WAIT. But when God says NO what are we supposed to do?

“When God says “No” So my question for you this morning is: Does God ALWAYS answer our prayer? In my life and in your life, God will always answer our prayers in one of 3 ways: SOMETIMES, His answer is YES … Sometimes it’s WAIT … and sometimes it’s NO ...read more
