     | 10,254 views

    So many people now a days are storing treasures upon this earth. They are gathering things of the earth that will not have any meaning in the world to come. They are building their lives upon the sand or the things of this world when they should be build

    BUILDING CASTLES IN THE SAND Matt. 7:24-27 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was ...read more

    It is the most freely given and withdrawn thing in the whole wide world and also the most misused and abused. There is an abundance and both a lack of it, in the world today and it always gives more than it receives. What is it? Its......

    You do know, "you have “access to it”," Don’t You? Access to what you might be wondering? “It” is a very big subject, would you like a clue as to what I’m talking about, this morning?

    Handling Money

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jan 7, 2014
     | 5,630 views

    The first commandment of the world is “self-preservation”. A shady business deal is winked at, questionable practices tolerated, and a clever crook is highly praised by the world. The law is on the side of the crook and the criminal many times.

    12-20-04 Title: Handling Money Text: “No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.” (Luke 16:13) Bible Reading: Luke ...read more

    Salt And Light

    Contributed by Hans Krause on Oct 19, 2018

     | 13,742 views

    We are the salt of the earth and the light of the world. We are not called to withdraw from public life into our safe and cozy Christian circles. We are called to make a difference in a world full of darkness, fear, violence, and foolishness.

    [Sermon preached on 21 October 2018, Reformation Sunday / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] We sing it almost every Sunday in church with the kids: “This little light of mine—I’m gonna let it shine. Everywhere I go, I’m gonna let it shine.” But I wonder how many of us really think about what we sing. ...read more

    The Coming Reign Of Christ

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 20, 2018
     | 4,984 views

    A great spiritual battle is still at work in our world today. We dear Saints are on the front lines of that battlefield. We are the evidence of Jesus sovereignty over the prince of this world. We are the subjects of His Holy Kingdom

    The Coming Reign of Christ Ezekiel 34:11-16 Ezekiel 34:11-16 King James Version (KJV) 11 For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I, even I, will both search my sheep, and seek them out. 12 As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered; so will I seek ...read more

    Pentecost 2018

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 25, 2018
     | 4,020 views

    Saints we are seeing an ever growing shift in spiritual focus in our world, one that is off the Church and on to Jerusalem. In the eyes of the world “The Church” is becoming less relevant and Jerusalem is becoming more and more relevant.

    Pentecost 2018 Acts 2:1-8 Get Fired UP! As I share and review the glorious news of Pentecost today I must also prepare you the Church for the glorious end of “The Church Age” which we see all around us. Time as we know it is near an end for the "Church Age". We “The Church” marvel at this ...read more

    Justice Will Prevail, I Promise! Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Jun 29, 2020
     | 5,136 views

    Life can be hard and unfair. We cry out for justice and wait for it. We may never experience justice in this world, but God promises us that He is a just God and that justice will prevail in the next world.

    A. Have you noticed in life that justice can be hard to come by? 1. One day a defendant stood before the judge and the judge announced, “Tell me, sir, do you have anything to offer this court before it passes sentence?” a. The defendant replied, “No, your honor, I have nothing to offer this court, ...read more

    Wrecking Crew ( Fifth Sunday Of Easter 2022)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on May 11, 2022
     | 1,508 views

    Nothing in all the world is more important to the world but the Blood of Jesus! Nothing but the blood of Jesus matters because [our own] “ … flesh and blood cannot enter the kingdom of God” (I Corinthians 15:50 NIV).

    WRECKING CREW Text: Acts 11:1 -18 Act 11:1-18  Now the apostles and the believers who were in Judea heard that the Gentiles had also accepted the word of God.  (2)  So when Peter went up to Jerusalem, the circumcised believers criticized him,  (3)  saying, "Why did ...read more

    We Are Living Epistles

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,244 views

    Paul said that our lives are written epistles, and that they are being read by the entire world. He said this in order to reveal just how much influence believers can have in impacting the world with the gospel of Jesus Christ.

    This evening we are going to discuss the power of the written letter. Have you ever thought about how powerful writing is? For example, consider how writing is used by the news media to push certain political agendas and worldviews. There’s just something about the written (or printed) word that ...read more

    The Peculiar People (April 30 2023)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Apr 27, 2023
     | 2,191 views

    Peter is telling us is that we should not let the things of this world, nor the people of this world distract us from the business of the Gospel! Today we want to talk about provocateurs, peculiar people and our priesthood.

    THE PECULIAR PEOPLE Text:1 Peter 2:9-16 1 Peter 2: 1 - 10: Rid yourselves, therefore, of all malice, and all guile, insincerity, envy, and all slander. 2 Like newborn infants, long for the pure, spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow into salvation— 3 if indeed you have tasted ...read more

    Aspects Of The Church - Its Turmoil, Conflict, Struggle And Endurance – Part 1. (Part 9 In The Series) Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 18, 2023
     | 1,245 views

    The world sees the Church as divided, fighting, greedy and hypocritical. Christ sees the Church as the unity of the Spirit. We look at Heresies and False Teachers; facing Tribulation in the world, and our wrestle against Evil Princes and Demons.

    ASPECTS OF THE CHURCH - ITS TURMOIL, CONFLICT, STRUGGLE AND ENDURANCE – PART 1. PART 9 IN THE SERIES We are going to look at some of the matters that are of concern for the Church and its problems and its conflict in the world. [1].

    Sermon: The Believer’s Answer Of Faith To The Advice Of Fear

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Mar 20, 2025
     | 725 views

    This psalm expresses David's trust in the Lord as all-knowing and righteous and his disappointment with the world around him. David answers the voice of fear with a confident faith in God. This world can be a scary place.

    Sermon: The Believer’s Answer of Faith to the Advice of Fear Psalms 11:1-7 “In the Lord put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain? For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart. If ...read more

    Let God Do The Finger Pointing

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Aug 7, 2023
     | 2,220 views

    If finger pointing is impolite and it is so often connected to self-centered, sinful behavior why does God do it? God does this so that when sinners see their lost condition he can point them to the cross of his Son. There forgiveness is found. There salvation and eternal life are offered.

    “Finger pointing.” What thoughts do those two words bring to your mind? For the most part they are probably negative thoughts. At a very early age we are taught not to point at people. It’s considered impolite. As we get older we experience finger pointing in many different ways. If we had ...read more

    The cross reminds us that God doesn’t intend for this fallen world, with its death, disaster, and corruption, to be our home forever.

    Weather! It’s everywhere, amen? Duh … pretty obvious. We’re surrounded by it. No matter where you go, you’ll encounter … weather … and it has a pretty big impact on our lives. We wake up in the morning and look out the window or turn on the radio or TV or go on our computers and look up the ...read more

    Can You Be Threatened?

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Feb 4, 2018
    based on 2 ratings
     | 10,320 views

    Many in the Body of Christ are living in compromise. They are allowing the world to dictate what they will and will not believe about the Bible. How does this happen? Peter and John's confrontation with the religious leaders in Acts 4 shows us how.

    I was thinking about Bro. Alain’s message this morning and what saddens me so much is how much of the Body of Christ is living in compromise and we don’t even realize it. And I thought about a Republican senator here in Ohio who came out strong and hard against homosexuality. He came out strong and ...read more
