Sermons on Covenant Renewal:

Is God Listening?

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 9, 2025

Prayer opens heaven’s ear and renews earth’s heart—reviving believers, healing divisions, and proving again that God still listens when His people pray.

Dr. Ralph D. Nichols of the University of Minnesota once told of a moment every public speaker dreads. He was addressing a high-school commencement when suddenly a child began to cry. Then another joined in. A small boy galloped up and down the aisle chased by another. With sinking heart, Dr. ...read more

The Heart Of The Matter

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 17, 2025

God’s grace replaces our stone hearts with living ones, using unlikely means to prove salvation beats only by His mercy.

Ezekiel 36 : 26 — “I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you.” --- 1. The Vegetarian With a Pig’s Heart My ex-wife’s grandfather was a conservative Adventist doctor in Napa City—the kind of man who read Ministry of Healing like it was Mosby’s Medical Dictionary and treated ...read more

The Can Is Empty

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 18, 2025

Humanity was created full, fractured by sin, yet through Christ the Living Water, God refills us to reflect His image again.

Introduction – Just Add Water I bought a can of dehydrated water the other day. The label said, “Just add water.” I stared at it for a while and thought, Now there’s an honest product — empty but hopeful. A can of dehydrated water — an empty container promising to be full if you supply the one ...read more

It Begins With Me

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 31, 2025

Revival starts where one heart turns—opening closed doors, cleansing hidden sin, and welcoming the Spirit’s rain until joy returns again.

Introduction — The Long Wait for Rain Sometimes revival doesn’t arrive with thunder. Sometimes it seeps in quietly—like rain through hard, cracked ground. For years we may live with the crust of complacency, calling it contentment. We tell ourselves that the season of power is past, that we’ve ...read more

Wilderness Mindset

Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 3, 2025

God delivers us from Egypt, renews our minds in the wilderness, and empowers us to walk joyfully in His promised abundance.

For the next few minutes we’re going to walk with Israel—out of Egypt, through the wilderness, and into the promise. But I’m not here to give you a history lesson; I’m here to preach deliverance to somebody’s soul. You’ve been circling the same mountain long enough. You’ve cried the same tears, ...read more

That’s The Book For Me

Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 12, 2025

God’s Word is wonderful to appreciate, vital to absorb, and powerful to apply—it shapes our steps, anchors our souls, and reveals God’s heart.

Part 1 — Appreciate Your Bible Most of us first met the Bible through a song long before we could spell “theology.” > “The B-I-B-L-E, yes that’s the book for me; I stand alone on the Word of God—the B-I-B-L-E. That little chorus carried a big truth: when all other voices clash, there’s one ...read more

I Wander As I Wander

Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 13, 2025

Wandering ends when we trust God more than our fears, letting His presence lead our hearts out of old circles and into promise.

There’s a phrase that has been turning over in my heart—one you might recognize, though not quite in the form you learned it. We know the old carol, “I Wonder as I Wander.” But somewhere along the way, in the wilderness seasons of my own life, it became this: “I wander as I wander.” Not poetic. ...read more

He Never Grows Weary

Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 1, 2025

God strengthens the weary, comforts the discouraged, and renews His people when they place their confidence in His everlasting, unfailing presence.

There are chapters in Scripture that stand like mountains—ancient, immense, unshakable. Isaiah 40 is one of them. You don’t so much climb this chapter as it climbs into you. It rises out of Isaiah’s prophecy like the first clear horizon after a long, dark night. For thirty-nine chapters, Isaiah ...read more
