    How often are you tempted to think you’re more important than you really are? We like to be the center of attention. We like to promote ourselves. We like to receive praise from other people. We like the applause of others. It causes us to be more concerned about self than God and others.

    Series: There’s an App for That “Pride” Matthew 6:1-4 Open We’re in this series called There’s an App for That. “App” is short for application. It’s a downloadable program for your smartphone or tablet that aids you in some area of your ...read more

    Joy To The World

    Contributed by Marc Phillips on Dec 18, 2015
     | 6,203 views

    We should carry our Joy in everything we do. Our joy is a gift of the Holy Spirit and when we are less than joyful we are squashing that spirit. Joy to the World is not just for Christmas, but for all year long!

    Scripture is shared from the NASB... We just sang Joy to the World as a praise song, and I think we did a pretty good job of it. I’d like to try this exercise together if you would indulge me for a moment. Let’s sing that first verse again, only let’s do it with a scowl or a ...read more

    The question about David's son in Luke 20:41-44 teaches us that Jesus is David's son and also David's Lord.

    Scripture Jesus is in the final week of his life. After his triumphal entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, Jesus returned to the temple on Monday and drove out the merchants who were selling their wares and obscuring people’s access to God. This enraged the religious rulers, who then ...read more

    There are two gifts this Christmas waiting to be given—the gift of Jesus packaged for you that you must receive and the gift of yourself that God is waiting for you to give.

    God's Gift Luke 1:26-38 26. Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city in Galilee called Nazareth, 27. to a virgin engaged to a man whose name was Joseph, of the descendants of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary. 28. And coming in, he ...read more

    God loved his people though they worshiped false gods and did wrong. He wants to restore his people.

    For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. - Jeremiah 29:11 We admire that, some people have the skills of restoration. Something that is old and useless will be restored to its original beauty. For example ...read more

    Be Cautious About Judging Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Oct 30, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,717 views

    When believers criticize each other, it can actually drive people away from the church. Jesus warned about the consequences of criticizing others, and of the need to do some spiritual self-examination before passing judgement.

    This morning we are going to look at the spiritual issue of judging others. The applicable definition for the word “judge” in our main passage means, “to form a judgment or opinion” and to “decide upon critically.”(1) The key word here is “critically,” for when we judge others we are often ...read more

    This king's experience of evil coming in the face of determined good effort and obedience mirrors the experience of devout men and women of every age and teaches us to believe in the constant working of Divine Providence, even in difficult circumstances.

    2 CHRONICLES 32:1-8 ACTS OF FAITHFULNESS [Isaiah 37:10-20, 36-38; Ps. 46; 2 Kgs 18:13-19:37] King Hezekiah [reigned 726–697 BC] had been on fire for the Lord God.

    I Am The Bread Of Life Series

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Jun 6, 2021
     | 6,021 views

    The amazing thing is that the more we eat the Bread of Life, the hungrier for him we become. Once we have started to experience Jesus’s grace and goodness, we actually want more of him! Your appetite for Christ won’t decrease the more you get to know him, but increase.

    Say you’ve recently met someone new. Another worker was hired on, or you started at a new school, or you got a new client for your business. You get to know a person in a few ways. One is to watch what they do. How do they behave, and how do they treat other people? You get acquainted also by ...read more

    Jesus says in effect, “You can be certain I’ll return but you can’t predict when I’ll return.

    This is the first sermon in a series of messages on Jesus’ vision of the last days. And it’s just in time for school to kick off both here and in Northwest ISD.

    The Need For Church Revival: Recover

    Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Oct 22, 2020
     | 3,869 views

    Jesus goes on to tell the believers at Ephesus to do the works that they did at first.

    First, we were encouraged to “remember”. Last time we were encouraged to “repent”. Many of us came to the front of the church to confess our sins to God and to forsake them. That was a good thing. That was a liberating thing. But, according to Jesus in Revelation chapter two, “remembering ...read more
