    Father Dave’s Sermon on wrestling with God. Real growth experiences always involve struggle and pain. And so Jacob, at the turning point of his life, wrestles all night with a dark and shadowy figure by the river Jabbok. He struggles. He fights. He is wo

    "Jacob was left alone; and a man wrestled with him until daybreak. (25) When the man saw that he did not prevail against Jacob, he struck him on the hip socket; and Jacob’s hip was put out of joint as he wrestled with him.

    Go! Series

     | 5,382 views

    God calls us to go. Into our communities. Into the broken parts of our cities. He promises to go with us and to make us a blessing. To reach the cities for Christ through his highly imperfect church. Improbable? Impossible. Then it must be God!

    Sermon for CATM - August 26, 2007 - “Go!” Genesis 12:1-3; Matthew 28:16-20 If you were here last Sunday you heard Maryellen’s message. It was, as usual for her, pretty extraordinary. When we’re given a chance by God to really hear what He is saying to us as a congregation, I always feel ...read more

    How we behave at work says a lot about our faith to those around us. It also says a lot about our attitude toward worshipping God. How to make our workplace and our worship work together.

    OPEN: During the middle 1800’s there was a popular set of rules for the office that showed up in one form or another across the nation. They all resembled something like these which were posted in Zachary Geiger’s establishment: 1. Office employees will daily sweep the floors, dust the furniture, ...read more

    Living a life of faith requires risk. Intelligent risk. Holding on to comfort zones and familiar territory will not move us forward to achieve great things for God.

    “Risking to Win” Matthew 9:18-26 Verse 21 (The Msg): “You took a risk of faith” Motivational speaker, Jim McCormick, is a former corporate Chief Operating Officer, MBA, and holder of three skydiving World Records and member of a successful skydiving expedition to the North Pole.

    Since childhood we know Daniel's story only from his perspective ... God shut the mouths of the lions. Let's reconsider the story from the lions perspective. How frustrating to see a large meal and be unable to eat it. If they don't get Daniel out of ...

    TO BE FREE (JOHN 8:31-47) On the Easter weekend of 2013 I joined a fellowship group to visit prisoners and was given a timely lesson and insight on the lack or worse, the absence, of freedom. It took an hour just to get into the facilities because of security. We were screened and most of our ...read more

     | 651 views

    Jesus is God in the flesh. He wants us to believe in Him and for people to submit to His authority with genuine faith.

    “The Authority of Jesus” John 2:18-25 One Sunday a visitor showed up: - to a more formal, liturgical church - than he was used to attending. The church was so quiet you could hear a pin drop: - That made it even more obvious - when this visitor got excited about something the minister said and ...read more

    A time of shaking is coming a time in the world when everything is shaken, except certain things which can never be shaken. All that is not built upon Christ the solid rock will fall and only things eternal will stand.

    Unshakable Things By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer Jr. PRELUDE: - I grew up in the church back in the day when we sang songs that stirred something up deep down on the inside. I’m not talking about emotionalism because you can be emotional without being spiritual, but you can’t be spiritual without ...read more

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Jan 31, 2023
     | 2,846 views

    The message examines the story of the woman caught in adultery in a somewhat narrative form.

    In Matthew 9:13, Jesus says, “I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance." Mercy is a word that many Christians fail to truly understand its depth and significance and how the withholding of it can impact a person’s life. In the ...read more

    There's a bright side of love, but there's also a dark side to it. This rich young ruler fell victim to the dark side of love after he spoke to Jesus.

    The Why Of Easter (Romans5:1-11) Series

    Contributed by James Jackson on Apr 17, 2022
     | 2,668 views

    The Gospels tell us the "what" of Easter. Movies like "The Passion" tell us the "how." But in Romans 5, the Apostle Paul tells us the why.

    Happy Easter! He is Risen, He has risen indeed. If you have your Bibles, please turn to Romans 5. You might be a little surprised to be back in Romans, but a kind of weird thing happened. I went back to Romans this week because I wanted to get a jump on next week’s sermon, since I’m going to be ...read more
