    Pastor Dennis looks at God’s promised presence and rest to the children of Israel on their journey from Egypt to the Promised Land, and how that same presence and rest of God accompanies us on our journey through the wilderness of this world filled with desolation, trials, difficulties and an enemy.

    Lessons From Jeremiah – Part 25 – Do Not Keep Sinning For Judgment Comes – Worthless Offerings Are Unacceptable Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 21, 2024
     | 692 views

    The efforts of sinful man to obtain his own acceptance with God is no more than sin wanting to shake hands with holiness and to say, “We are the same, just a bit different in appearance.” Judah was found wanting, wicked and ready for judgement. God gave them to Babylon.

    Discovering Your "Why” In Life Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 24, 2024
     | 1,171 views

    The will of the Father wasn’t an optional thing for Jesus; it was an essential thing. It wasn’t a cul-de-sac, but it was His main thoroughfare. Just as you were to finish a big porterhouse steak, Jesus is satisfied by doing the Father’s will. It was His source of life.

    Have you discovered your purpose? Do you know your “why”? Many American Christians fall into the trap that exists only to make money or to be happy. Do you know why God has placed you here on earth? Do you know your “why”? Invitation At the conclusion of today’s message, you will be invited to ...read more

    Using both Joseph in the Old Testament, and Martin Luther King Jr. from our generation, we'll look at these principles of freedom from God’s word along with seeing how their dreams defined the destiny of their people. Jesus wants everyone to live a lifestyle of freedom.

    Elisha’s Ministry - Naaman, Almost The Reject - 2 Kings 5:1-19 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jul 18, 2022
     | 3,149 views

    Naaman was a powerful man, with all the success one could desire, all the esteem and glory, BUT he had leprosy. The account of his cure is of value to us as it contains lessons that benefit us in many ways. It was God who wrought the miracle, not Elisha. He was the willing servant.

    ELISHA’S MINISTRY - NAAMAN, ALMOST THE REJECT - 2 Kings 5:1-19 SERIES – MESSAGES ON ELISHA – HIS LIFE AND MINISTRY Number 14 When we consider chapter 5, the focus here is on Naaman, not so much on Elisha, but it is Elisha we are studying. Along the way we will also look into the motives of ...read more

    Introduction: A. I want to begin today with a wonderful story that the late Peter Marshall, who was the chaplain of the U.S. Senate, used to love to tell, called: “The Keeper of the Spring.” 1.

     | 3,975 views

    Judah was the fourth son of Jacob and Leah. He failed, several times, but God forgave him and gave him a future to be proud of.

    Introduction: Each of Jacob’s twelve sons was different from the others. That goes without saying, as any parent of more than one child will probably agree! Judah was the fourth son of Jacob and Leah and his name is related to the Hebrew word for “praise (Gen. 29:35)”. Some of his deeds might have ...read more
