Making The Most Of Our Time: A Call To Action SermonCentral

Contributed by SermonCentral on Sep 8, 2023

In today's world, the church appears to be busy, but is it truly fulfilling God's mission? Are we, as a church, actively 'occupying' or merely resting on past achievements while waiting for the Lord's return? This sermon explores these questions and calls for a more proactive approach to our faith.

When we look at the modern church, we see that it is busy as a whole. But are we truly accomplishing what God has given us? Is the church actively occupying, or are we simply resting on past achievements and waiting for the Lord's return? In Luke 19:13, Jesus called his ten servants, gave them ten ...read more

Focus On Your Future Youth Sermon

Contributed by Youth Sermons on Sep 4, 2023

We need to trust God and let Him guide us. We need to focus on the future He has for us instead of dwelling on the past. God has a good plan for our lives, and His thoughts and ways are higher than ours.

Today, we're talking about your future. Now, I know we all have plans, dreams, and goals, but here's the thing: God's got plans for us too, and they're way better than anything we could come up with. Think about it like this: Imagine you're trying to put together a 1000-piece puzzle without the ...read more

Bloodwork (Pt 1) Series

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Nov 19, 2025

Last Sunday, Ashley said something that I’ve thought about off and on this past week. She said “the altar is always open, to come forward and worship God. You don’t have to wait for the altar call or invitation.”

Did you learn something new in God's word this past week, or did you see a familiar passage with new eyes? I hope you did. I know I did. Today’s message came to me over a year ago while reading about woman with the issue of blood. BODY It’s found in three of the four gospels. We are going to ...read more

Danger: Disguised, Deadly Deceivers! - Matthew 7:15-20 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Nov 18, 2024

It is God’s design that we follow leaders. But the false ones deceive and lead away from the narrow road to hell. The way to see past the sheep’s clothing to the actual fruit is by watching for the things that come from the heart and that are not a part of the act.

Matthew 7:15 Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. 16 By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? 17 Likewise every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears ...read more

A Lion In A Den Of Daniels Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Oct 24, 2000

When you feel you are the only one who's wrong in the crowd of acceptable people, see how faith teaches us to find a shred of dignity in reaching out for help, and how complete faith gives us wholeness despite our past.

Goodness Of God

Contributed by V. David Sedaca on Oct 18, 2000

Judgment On Our Hearts

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 17, 2004

For our Remembrance Sunday, when we recall church members deceased during the past year. Memories that are all positive or all positive leave judgment on our hearts. The gospel means that we learn and rejoice from them, but recognize that their lives we

The way in which we remember those who have gone before us can either empower us or it can disempower us. The way in which we grieve for those we have loved and lost can either enable us to greater things, or it can disable us and hold us back. It all depends on what we do with the judgment that ...read more
