    You've Got Talent

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on May 24, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 9,538 views

    We tend to think of our spiritual gifts as unique units when they are all fruits or manifestation of the Holy Spirit within us. We have what I call "persistent" gifts but there are times when the Holy Spirit gives us other gifts for a season.

    Where Does Your "Help" Come From?

    Contributed by Samuel Fulkerson on Jul 15, 2013
     | 9,291 views

    The fact is that any of us have the potential within us to become fornicators, liars, drunkards, adulterers, or even murders and we could become guilty of ever evil work of the flesh; except for the Grace (help) of God! Where does your help come from?

    Quotes: “People are like dirt. They can either nourish you & help you grow as a person or they can stunt your growth and make you wilt and die. “ –Plato --It all depends on what they have within them. “Life's most persistent and urgent question is, 'What are you doing for ...read more

    Experiencing The Holy Spirit

    Contributed by Scott Maze on May 18, 2021

     | 5,564 views

    Life demands an energy from you that is not IN you. We call this “burn out.” In order to truly navigate all that life throws at you, you need a power not from within you but from the outside. This is why you need the outside power of the Holy Spirit.

    I invite you to turn to Acts 2 as we return back to our study in Acts after some time away. This morning, I want to speak to you about “Experiencing on the Holy Spirit.” To begin 2018, we are going to focus on the Holy Spirit. Yet, many of us think of God the Father and we speak of Jesus Christ ...read more

    Abundant Grace

    Contributed by Mark Lindsey on Aug 29, 2022
     | 3,527 views

    Often, we, like the Corinthian believers, fail to remember the abundant grace which has been given to us through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. We look more like the culture around us than the nature of Christ within us.

    “Abundant Grace” Acts 18:1-11; 1 Corinthians 15:1-11 Each one of us who are followers of Jesus Christ are experiencing the abundant grace of God. Your salvation has three stages: past, present, and future. The theological terms are justification, sanctification, and glorification. The moment you ...read more

    Christians are a diverse group of people, even within a particular denomination, people are still different. We are different in culture, race, age, social status, skill, and personality. The only thing that can bring unity among such people is the movement of God's Spirit.

    Today let's talk about what it means to be unified in Christ. Christians are a diverse group of people, even within a particular denomination, people are still different.

    Contributed by Barnabas Park on Jan 4, 2026
     | 74 views

    this sermon examines how God’s grace restores our broken relationship with Him. True peace is a relational status achieved through Christ’s sacrifice, not a worldly feeling. Believers must reflect this harmony within the church through prayer and mutual love.

    Sermon Outline: Enjoying the Peace of Christ Scripture Text: Philippians 1:1-2; Romans 5:1; Colossians 1:20 Introduction: Enjoying the Peace of Christ In the opening of his epistles, the Apostle Paul consistently greets the church with a specific blessing: "Grace and peace".

    Jesus’ cure for the troubled heart is to look ahead to the place Jesus is preparing for you, look up in prayer to your Heavenly Father, and look within at your Partner, the Holy Spirit. Look to the Triune God: God the Father; God the Son; and God the Holy Spirit.

    Brothers and sisters, if you are in Christ today, if you are born a second time, a new being, with the Sacred Spirit within you, and it’s really real, then you are closer to me than my own flesh and blood family. We are family by the Spirit of God.

    As believers in Jesus we are his representative body on the Earth. We are the body of Christ. This means Jesus does his work through us, as we are led by Him. That’s something I think we need to emphasize more and more, being led by God’s Spirit practically on a daily basis. Are you led by the ...read more

     | 871 views

    Pentecost is more than a day — it is a divine encounter that releases heaven’s power on earth. The Holy Spirit was not sent for a one-time experience but to dwell with and within us perpetually. As we yield to Him, we are transformed, empowered, and used mightily for God’s glory.
