    God places a great deal of emphasis on us growing in our faith and bearing fruit. But why? What difference would it make if we did?

    OPEN: There’s a story about a little boy who had a special hiding place in the back yard. It was an old fruit tree. It had lots of leaves, but it hadn’t produced fruit in years, but the little boy didn’t care. He’d climb up in those branches, and hide amongst the leaves, and for hours he’d pretend ...read more

    This sermon focuses on the human tendency to judge others and the forms of judgement that have no place within God's Kingdom or his people.

    If you want to follow along, we are going to be looking at Matthew 7:1. We will be looking at only five verses today. While you are looking that up, I was looking on the internet this past week for illustrations to open my sermon, and I came across one that I thought was very good. Not only ...read more

    The church does not and should not have a caste system. The church is not a place of racism nor classism, yet why are we not growing?

    The sins of Favoritism James 2:1-13 (Instruction: Come in dressed well) Jesus Christ is the Lord who left the glory of heaven and came to this corruptible world to save sinners like us. He humbled himself, laid aside His position in heaven, and became like us. He was born is dire ...read more

    Our Christian Brothers are often found in some unusual places. It should caution us about judging too quickly!

    In this day and age, when there is so much competition and our litigation-crazed society encourages more division than healing, it is often easy for us as Christians to forget that we are supposed to be "living icons" of Jesus Christ to those around us. We actually fight more among ourselves as ...read more

    The lack of understanding of what it means to be a new creature, of our place in Christ, and an understanding of Righteousness are most important to the body of Christ.

    What Hinders our Faith? Part 1 Foundation Scripture: 1 Timothy 6 v 12 KEY TRUTH: The only fight the believers fight is the GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH. KEY TRUTH: The Bible calls it a GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH because Jesus whipped the devil at the cross, in hell and rose the victor over him. 1) The lack of ...read more

     | 30,803 views

    Why did the soldiers place a crown of thorns on the head of Jesus? Could there be something more significant to it than we realize?

    I am amazed at many of the details of the story of Jesus’ trials, His suffering, abuse, and mockery, and how that there is significance to each event, to each episode. This morning we took a graphic look at the torture He suffered in being scourged or flogged. The ripping apart of His flesh, the ...read more

    The change that takes place in a Christian’s heart should be able to be compared to the change that happens when a worm becomes a butterfly.

    So much can be drawn, by analogy, from the butterfly. A. Who here has never been drawn to the beauty and grace and freedom of the butterfly? 1. Granted, they have their mortal enemies, but if the butterfly could think and reason...what butterfly would want to give up all ...read more
