    A Sure Foundation In Jesus PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Nov 1, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 166 views

    True faith stands firm through life’s storms when built on obedience to Jesus, who alone provides the unshakable foundation our hearts need.

    Friend, storms don’t make appointments. They don’t text ahead, and they don’t knock politely. They gather on the horizon and muscle their way into our Mondays. A pink slip on a Friday. A diagnosis on a Tuesday. A call at midnight that drops you to your knees. And there you stand in the downpour, ...read more

    We need to remeber all the LORD has done in our lives

    A Memorial to Remember Joshua 4 Good morning… Since tomorrow is Memorial Day, I would like to take a moment to pay honor to all of our nation’s heroes who died serving in the armed forces. The LORD’s protection is why we have certain freedoms, but we can also be thankful for the ...read more

    Your Truth, My Truth, The Truth

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 2, 2025
     | 238 views

    Truth is not a viewpoint or a feeling but a Person—Jesus—calling us from self-made versions to surrender, freedom, and transforming grace.

    ITRODUCTION — TRUTH IN A WORLD OF VERSIONS We live in a strange generation—one that has replaced reality with versions of reality. If you’ve noticed, we no longer speak about truth the way Scripture does. We speak in smaller, softer, more flexible categories: “Your truth.” “My truth.” “Live your ...read more

    Do You Know Jesus? PRO Sermon

    based on 3 ratings
     | 126 views

    True life is found not in achievements or busyness, but in personally knowing God through Jesus, who invites us into a deep, transforming relationship with Him.

    Some of us walked in today with hearts that feel hurried and hands that feel full. Calendars cram our days, and yet our souls can still feel thin. In the middle of all that noise, Jesus gives us a sentence that settles the storm and steadies the soul. He prays for us. He speaks about life—real ...read more

     | 371 views

    No matter how weary or uncertain we feel at year’s end, Christ’s presence and strength sustain us and give hope for every day ahead.

    Some of us count the days on the calendar with a sigh. Others count with a smile. Many of us do both. The year has been a quilt of bright patches and frayed threads—birthdays and funerals, milestones and setbacks, answered prayers and unanswered questions. The days have left their marks.

    What Are The Keys Of The Kingdom? PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 3, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 252 views

    Jesus entrusts believers with real spiritual authority, inviting us to pray boldly and trust God’s wisdom as we partner with Him to bring heaven to earth.

    Some of you jingled a set of keys on your way in today. House keys. Car keys. Office keys. Each one says, “You belong here. You can open this.” Keys are tiny, but they carry quiet authority. They don’t raise their voice. They don’t flash and flare. They simply turn, and doors obey. That’s why the ...read more

     | 100 views

    Jesus calls ordinary, flawed people to follow Him, offering transforming grace and acceptance that overcomes our failures and invites us into a new story.

    If you’ve ever felt passed over, mislabeled, or just plain tired, take heart. Jesus has a way of walking into ordinary places and turning them into holy ground. He steps into tax booths and kitchens, into cubicles and carpools, into hospital rooms and waiting rooms. He sees what others miss. He ...read more

     | 233 views

    God’s presence makes the impossible possible; when we reach our limits, we can trust His power and faithfulness to carry us through every challenge.

    Some of us walked in today with a tight throat and a tired heart. The week has been long. The bills stack up, the headlines hit hard, and the calendar doesn’t care that your energy is on empty. You’ve prayed for the prodigal until your words feel worn. You’ve watched the doctor’s face for good news ...read more

    This sermon has selected scripture and a look at our courge and a view at some men in the bible as our example.

    COURGE. Introduction: SELECTED SCRIPTURE Courage is doing the right thing because our convictions won’t let us do anything else. Doing something because it is the convenient thing to do is not courage. Doing something because everyone else is doing it is not courage. Doing something because ...read more

    Things We Value In Ministry Series

    Contributed by Manny Salva Cruz on Feb 28, 2016
     | 13,370 views

    Ministry work should be done by every Christian not just for pastors and church leaders. In this message, we will learn from the life of Deborah three things that can help us as we minister to God, to the Christians and to the unbelievers.

    Many of us think of ministry as the work done by pastors, by missionaries, by Christian Conference speakers or evangelists. We rarely think that work done by bankers, by lawyers, by engineers or homemakers can also be considered as ministry. We have a wrong notion that only those who get their ...read more

    Discover God’s building blocks for developing confidence in life.

    In the September 21, 2001 San Francisco Chronicle, the headline read, "Freedom and Fear Are at War." The truth is fear is at war with many aspects of life, not just with freedom. Fear wars against our health. Fear wars against making good decisions. Fear wars against obedience to God. Fear ...read more
