    A teaching on the hidden manna found in Revelation 2:17

    Back in the 60s there was a sit-com called “F Troop.” It was the story of a bunch of guys in the Calvary stationed in the western frontier. They were made up of misfits and con men. Even the Indians were part of some schemes. The Indian tribe was called the Hekawi. On one episode ...read more

     | 12,317 views

    What Elisha’s succession to Elijah’s office can tell us about the transfer of power: God’s use of imperfect people, the need for loyalty, ambition, and decisiveness.

    A TRANSFER OF POWER How many of you came to our play? Do you remember when Steve came in at the beginning of the 2nd Act, dressed as Samson with hair almost down to his waist? Did you laugh? If you did, you better watch out for bears. That’s what happened to the boys of Bethel who made fun of ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,528 views

    Seeing, hearing, and knowing God’s will is quite different from doing what God wants. For doing what God wants will often cost us something that we might not be willing to pay.

    John 6: 35, 41 – 51 / Obtuse Intro: A conscientious wife tried hard to please her critical husband, but failed regularly. Jack was especially disagreeable at breakfast. If Jill prepared scrambled eggs, he wanted poached; if she poached eggs, he wanted scrambled. One morning Jill poached one ...read more

    Whatever be the extent of our sacrifice to our Lord, the realization that we have been adorned with the eternal " robes of righteousness" free of cost at the point of salvation, would keep us grateful and thus humble!!!

    Dancing With Wolves

     | 1,241 views

    The false prophets dance around the cost of discipleship, but dancing slippers don’t suit the hard road that leads to the narrow gate, and the wolves never warn their people that they need hiking boots instead

    I am trying to navigate the theological tsunami that is threatening to permanently alter the face of our denomination. The amendments to the constitution regarding ordination standards, diversity, inclusiveness, interpretation of Scripture, and so on, are incredibly important to our identity as a ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,429 views

    What is God’s purpose for establishing the church? Are we fulfilling this purpose or running in the wrong direction like Jonah did? As a church may we realize our purpose and fulfill it at all cost.

    We read in Jonah 1:3, “But Jonah rose to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD. He went down to Joppa and found a ship going to Tarshish. So he paid the fare and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish, away from the presence of the LORD.” (ESV) The word of the Lord we saw in the ...read more

    Express Kindness

    Contributed by Chris Cuthbertson on Jun 7, 2024
     | 1,255 views

    Not every act of kindness pays ; it doesn’t always turn out to be profitable. In fact, often times kindness costs us something. But it is fulfilling, it is commanded, and it’s an important attribute of love.

    June 5th 2016 Seaford Christian Church (Homecoming) Express Kindness Luke 8: 40 – 56 I heard about a woman who had just cashed her income tax return check, and as she was standing at a bus stop a man went over to a poorly dressed man, whispered something in his ear, and handed him some money.

    Who Is On The Lord's Side? Series

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jul 16, 2025
     | 371 views

    In every generation, this question echoes—Who is on the Lord’s side? The line between compromise and conviction must be clearly drawn. God is looking for those who will boldly stand for Him, no matter the cost.

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 1 Kings 18:21 Supporting Texts: Exodus 32:26; Joshua 24:15; Revelation 3:15-16; Matthew 10:32-33; 2 Timothy 1:7-8 INTRODUCTION: Mount Carmel was the place of decision.

    In our politically correct pluralistic society seeking tolorance at all costs, Jesus is still THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE. We can trust Christ to bring us safly into His eternal presence.

    Imagine a little league baseball team of six and seven-year olds learning how to play the game. Having once been a six-year-old eager to play the game and having coached little league, I know that many six and seven-year olds would rather just play the game than learn how. Now can you picture ...read more

    Every Christian needs to examine the importance of perserverance. As Winston Churchill said to a graduating class of young cadets, "Never give up..." There’s a high cost to giving up and giving in!

    Sometimes the bargain we are looking for are not always at a garage sale or holiday sale searching for material things. Sometimes we search for bargains in or spiritual life too.

    TITLE: BARGAIN HUNTERS SCRIPTURE: ST. LUKE 14:25-35 We live in a society that loves bargains. Everybody loves a bargain. It is a great feeling when you pay very little but you get a lot.
