    Are You A Disciple?

    Contributed by Jerry Owen on Mar 6, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 12,805 views

    Much of the church today has watered down the gospel so much in order to just attract attenders that Lordship and discipleship are completely foreign concepts. Many want only a casual relationship with Christ, but Christ is not a casual relationship God.

    ARE YOU A DISCIPLE? Matthew 16:13-27 This week I was in my storage room looking for something. I reached to the top shelf and felt fur and claws. A flying squirrel jumped up on a box and stared at me. I yelled for Lana to come. Why? Because I needed a sermon illustration. She got there with a ...read more

    If you want to improve your marriage, spend time with each other, help each other, and fit each other for the glory of God.

    After reading a book called Man of the House during his commute home from work, the enlightened husband stormed into his house to confront his wife. Pointing his finger in her face, he said, “From now on, I want you to know that I am the man of this house, and my word is law. Tonight, you are to ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 455 views

    If salvation were earned by good works, heaven would be full of people boasting about what they did. But heaven is filled with people praising what Jesus did.

    Go! And Live by Grace Alone – The Gift You Could Never Earn - Ephesians 2:8–9 Ephesians 2:8–9 (NLT) – “God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,753 views

    When Jesus called people to follow Him, He was upfront about the cost. He never promised discipleship would be easy, He promised it would be worth it.

    The cost of being a disciple of Jesus is profound. It’s a journey marked by surrender, sacrifice, and a willingness to lay down everything for the sake of following Christ. When Jesus called people to follow Him, He was upfront about the cost. He never promised that discipleship would be easy, but ...read more

    When You Know It’s Going To Be A Bad Day Series

    Contributed by C. Philip Green on Dec 19, 2025
     | 174 views

    When you know you’re going to have a bad day, affirm God’s justice; affirm God’s authority; and affirm God’s mercy. It will help you get through the day.

    According to a recent survey, the average American knows their day is going to be bad by 8:36 a.m. in the morning. For example, they say, “You know you’re going to have a bad day if you wake up feeling sick (35%), if you suffer from poor sleep (31%), or if you start the day with a headache (29%).” ...read more

     | 21,205 views

    Our marriages should reflect the kind of commitment Jesus demonstrated when He went to the cross. We have in Scripture, instructions to both the wives and the husbands, that we bring our marriages under the Lordship of Christ.

    Dear church I would like to take you to the cross at Calvary ,so that we can analyse the characters of people who were at the Calvary ,and to see if we can copy anything from them.

    In light of God’s redemptive plan, the second coming of Jesus is of utmost importance. Without it, our salvation experience will not be complete. The full benefits of the redeeming work of Jesus at the cross will be experienced in His Second coming.

    In 2004, Christians may not be nailed to crosses or thrown to wild animals or burned as torches, but the need is as great now as it was in Paul’s day for us to be courageous. As we approach the Christmas Season the Lord wants us to be courageou

    Many things conspire to keep people separate, even in the church. Only God can connect us, and it is the cross that binds us. Are we living out that reality, or have we let separations disconnect us?

    When he says it, it feels both enraging and endearing. When he pronounces it, it sounds like irritation, but it also sounds like invitation.

    Just A Little Give And Take

    First Sunday in Lent: Temptation is often the enticement to compromise, to engage in just a bit of ’give and take.’ Jesus would have none of it when satan tempted Him. Nothing would deter Jesus from the Cross.

    The art of the compromise – of give and take – is valued by many people. You scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours. Watch the consummate politician on campaign trail – they live by give and take. Whey even a good football game starts out as a battle of give and take. One team will fight and ...read more
