    Finding Our Worth In Christ

    Contributed by Ian Hyde on Mar 26, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,370 views

    In a culture obsessed with self-image, how do we find our self-worth and redefine ourselves in the image of Christ?

    American Individualism I want you to take a moment, as we reflect on this verse, to think about the culture we find ourselves in today. At its heart, it is a very individualistic, self-centered and image obsessed culture. Now, don’t get me wrong, I love this country and the people in it. But we ...read more

    How…in a culture bent on hate / division / incivility / outrage…do you and I find the power to respond differently?

    We’ve all got a RED BUCKET and a BLUE BUCKET. THE RED BUCKET - It’s red because it’s filled with gasoline. When you pour gasoline on a fire: Things escalate quickly. People end up getting hurt.

    A Surprise Or A Plan? Series

     | 2,302 views

    The church began as a Messianic Jewish movement, but became a trans-cultural Messianic movement. How can we explain this?

    A Surprise or a Plan? (Romans 9:22-33) 1, I heard about a pastor after he would preach a man would say to him, “Pastor, that was a warm message today.” or the man would say, “Pastor, that was a warm sermon” or he would sometimes say, “I appreciate those warm words.” One day the preacher caught him ...read more

    True Leadership Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 4, 2021
     | 1,757 views

    As the culture of power and death sees it today, leaders have to be tyrants without hearts or they can’t get anything done.

    2nd Sunday of Advent Cycle C “Lead, or follow, or get out of the way.” This bulldozer philosophy of leadership sat prominently on the desk of sports-and-media maven Ted Turner. Almost a century earlier, another notorious anti-Catholic, Havelock Ellis, wrote a sneering thought about ...read more

    Don’t compromise in your commitment to the Lord nor with the godless culture that surrounds you, lest you be consumed by it.

    There is an old Russian parable about a hunter who came to a clearing and encountered a bear. The hunter raised his rifle to shoot when the bear said, “Wait, what do you want?” The hunter replied, “A fur coat.” “That’s reasonable,” answered the bear. “I want a full stomach. Let’s sit down and ...read more

    When Jesus washed the feet of the disciples, he broke cultural conventions but also provided an example for his followers to emulate.

    Surprised by Underwhelming Expectations I rarely introduce myself as Pastor. It’s not that I don’t want people to know the role I play, but I don’t want my title to become a barrier. Sure, it may open some conversations, but it may also hinder others as people might think I’m some holy man - ...read more

    A vivid, humorous message exposing cultural Christianity’s counterfeits and inviting listeners to rediscover the transforming power of the real Jesus.

    Everyone says they’re a Christian these days. Open a feed and you’ll see Bible verses beside zodiac signs, worship playlists next to self-help quotes, and a dozen different definitions of faith. So I decided to ask a few self-described Christians what they actually believe. Same questions every ...read more

     | 4,780 views

    In this passage, Paul addresses an issue in detail that he had touched on earlier in 1 Corinthians 7.8-9. The issue was, “Does a Christian have to get married, and how about the unmarried women in the church who are not getting any younger” (see I Co 7.36).

    Anointing Of The Holy Spirit Series

    Contributed by Rev. Dr. Vivek Gundimi on Sep 4, 2023

     | 3,670 views

    "What is the anointing of the Spirit of God? What does it mean to be anointed?" Is it necessary to be anointed by the Spirit of God in the Post Modern Culture such as today?

    I want to trace back briefly into history of the practise of anointing and then come to its relevance for us today. The origin of ‘anointing’ was from a practice of shepherds. Lice and other insects would often get into the wool of sheep, and when they got near the sheep's head, they could ...read more

    Using the contemporary concept of "identity theft," the sermon asks the question, what does it mean to "know Jesus." It includes a connection to the issue of global warming.

    Imagine if you will, a certain man – we’ll call him Joshua – who comes each day to sit on a park bench. Another man – we’ll call this one Barney – has never actually met Joshua, let alone sat with him on that park bench. Barney lives quite some distance from Joshua. He does, however, know ...read more
