    Open my eyes, that I may see glimpses of truth Thou hast for me; Place in my hands the wonderful key that shall unclasp and set me free. Silently now I wait for Thee, ready my God, Thy will to see, Open my eyes, illumine me, Spirit divine! Open the eyes of my heart, Lord, open the eyes of my ...read more

    Paul describes how the choice to choose Christ as Savior is the difference between life and death.

    Mount Whitney in California is the highest spot in the continental United States (14,495 feet).

    Paul shares two ingredients that make life worth living.

    (Show video—Life is Temporary) I would imagine that it would be safe to say that a majority of us who are present today desire a life that is fulfilling, meaningful, joy filled, and purposeful - a life worth living. Now, I guess there may be a few of you who take exception to that - you prefer a ...read more

    "What's The Big Deal About Church?” Series

    Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Jun 16, 2009
    based on 7 ratings
     | 11,437 views

    Paul explains how the church is a really "big deal" in the plan of God and how it should, therefore be a "big deal" to us.

    A word that Paul uses in our passage for today is one that he also uses elsewhere in this book. That word is “mystery. The word “mystery,” is used by Paul in verses 3, 4, 6, & 9. What is Paul referring to when he uses this word? The word, “mystery” might make us think of Agatha Christie, Sherlock ...read more

     | 5,073 views

    A sermon on assurance of salvation.

    At a certain Christian school, the teacher taught her class to recite the Apostle’s Creed, clause by clause, with each pupil having his own clause to recite.

    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,504 views

    Paul prays for believers to experience Christ-likeness, not just on an individual level, but on a corporate level as a local body of believers.

    (Show Video—Stethoscope) Last time, we looked to Paul’s prayer here and noted that he asks for God’s power to work in the lives of the Ephesian believers so that they might enter into Christ-likeness. We pointed out how Christ-likeness is something for us to enter into - to receive, rather than ...read more

    Two people, each claiming to be a Christian, lose their job.

One followed God’s formula for victorious ...read more

    "United Or Untied: Where Am I?” Series

    Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Aug 5, 2009
     | 5,700 views

    Church unity requires our behaving in such a way as to not grieve the work of the Holy Spirit.

    In a church bulletin, a hurried secretary typed “the church was untied,” instead of, “the church was united.” What was out of place? The “I” was! In our passage for today, Paul tells us about unity in the church. As he does, he says that the unity of the church is a spiritual reality; but also a ...read more

    What are the biblical characteristics of a growing church?

    Last time, as we focused on verses 11 and 12, we made note of the two essentials of church growth - gifted leadership (v. 11) and committed membership (v. 12). A church will never rise higher than the skills of the leadership and will go no farther than the commitment of the membership. Gifted ...read more
