  • Launching Into The Deep

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 5, 2026
     | 387 views

    Christ calls weary believers to leave safe shallows behind and trust Him anew, discovering growth, purpose, and fruitfulness through obedient faith.

    My message this morning comes from the Scripture that was just read — Luke 5. It’s a familiar passage. Most of us have heard it many times. We know how the story goes. Fishermen become fishers of men. Nets that were empty suddenly overflow. Ordinary work becomes holy calling. But familiarity can ...read more

  • Why Outcasts Find Jesus

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 6, 2026
     | 121 views

    God announces salvation first to outcasts, revealing that grace meets us in our need and welcomes us before we belong.

    A shepherd was looking after his sheep one day on the side of a deserted road when suddenly a brand-new Porsche screeched to a halt. The driver stepped out wearing an Armani suit, Rockport shoes, Oakley sunglasses, a Rolex watch, and a Versace tie. He looked at the shepherd and said, “If I can ...read more

  • The Half Gospel Church

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 7, 2026
     | 192 views

    Discipleship begins where control ends. Trust is revealed not by belief, but by movement

    Introduction We live in a time that prizes manageability above almost everything else. We want lives that are controllable, predictable, and efficient. We value systems that reduce friction and minimize risk. We are constantly offered ways to simplify what feels demanding, streamline what feels ...read more

  • Living Between Prayer And Promise

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 8, 2026
    based on 1 rating
     | 250 views

    Live faithfully between prayer and promise—trust God’s future, obey His present reign, and rest in hope until Christ returns.

    Most of our lives are not lived at the beginning of a story or at the end of one. They are lived somewhere in the middle — in that long, unfinished stretch where things are still forming, still unresolved, still waiting to make sense. We live between what has already been spoken and what has not ...read more

  • How Much Pain Can A Heart Absorb Before It Goes Numb?

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 10, 2026
     | 114 views

    Addresses how prolonged suffering leads to spiritual numbness, how biblical lament keeps faith honest, and how Christ answers pain not with distance, but with presence and costly, enduring love.

    There is a kind of pain that makes us cry. And then there is another kind of pain—quieter, heavier—that eventually makes us stop. We live in a world where suffering is no longer rare. It is constant. It streams. It scrolls. It updates every few minutes. War. Displacement. Hunger. Violence. ...read more

  • Restore Me To Joy

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 10, 2026
     | 308 views

    Revival begins not when we try harder, but when we see God as gracious and allow the joy of salvation to be restored.

    There is a difference between being lost and being tired. And if we don’t recognize that difference, we will keep speaking the wrong word to the wrong people. Many people in church today are not lost. They are not rebellious. They are not angry at God. They are not trying to run away. They are ...read more

  • How Firm A Foundation

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 10, 2026
     | 200 views

    The Christian life is not about regaining control, but about learning where to stand when control was never ours to begin with.

    There are moments in history when people realize—often quietly rather than dramatically—that something fundamental has shifted. Not because life has ended or collapsed completely, but because assumptions that once felt solid have been exposed. The structures we trusted may still stand, but they ...read more

  • Sermon 13: Christian Life And Ministry Are A Team Effort Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Jan 12, 2026
     | 181 views

    As the apostle Paul concludes his letter to the church at Colossae, he mentions 11 people in the last 12 verses. From this we notice that Paul was someone who knew how dependent he was on others for his own wellbeing and for the advance of the Gospel. Christian life and ministry are a team effort.

    Introduction: A. The America’s Cup is a sailing competition and is the oldest international competition still operating in any sport and has the oldest trophy dating back to 1851. 1. Dennis Conner is one of America’s most successful yachtsman and has won in many different kinds of sailing ...read more

  • What We Make God Look Like

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 12, 2026
     | 336 views

    Holiness is not about impressing others, but accurately reflecting God’s character through our tone, reactions, and everyday faithfulness.

    We care about what we believe, what we say, and how we live. We want our faith to mean something. We want it to be credible. We want it to make sense to the people who know us best — our families, our coworkers, our children, our neighbors. And yet, if we’re honest, many of us live with a quiet ...read more

  • When The Running Stops

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 12, 2026
     | 123 views

    When life’s motion slows and striving no longer sustains us, God reveals that true strength comes from knowing Him, not from constant movement.

    I’ve done a little to-ing and fro-ing in my day. I traveled around the world five times by the age of eleven. So movement came early for me. Packing, leaving, arriving, starting over—those weren’t dramatic events; they were normal. Motion felt natural. Stillness had to be learned later. So ...read more

  • Ruleigion

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 13, 2026
     | 131 views

    Jesus confronts rule-based righteousness by restoring the heart of God’s law—mercy, life, and grace centered in Himself.

    Before we turn to Matthew chapter 12, I want to share a new word with you. Are you ready? Here it is: Ruleigion. Not religion — rule-igion. I didn’t invent this word — it was coined by Joshua Harris from Covenant Reformed Church in Hagerstown, Maryland — but it names something Jesus confronts ...read more

  • Awake In Gethsemane

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 13, 2026
     | 77 views

    Jesus’ agony in Gethsemane reveals the cost of salvation and shows that Easter hope rests on His obedience, not ours.

    Every Easter weekend, we gather to celebrate life. We sing resurrection songs. We dress a little brighter. We speak words like hope, victory, and new beginnings. And rightly so — Easter is the great declaration that death does not get the final word. Easter did not begin in a garden filled with ...read more

  • Blessed… Praise Be!

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 14, 2026
     | 232 views

    The Beatitudes expose neutral faith, declaring where life with God truly exists and refusing to let blessing remain comfortable.

    “Blessed…” That word is so familiar to us that it barely registers anymore. We hear it and we nod. We hear it and we assume we know what comes next. Blessed — we think — means approved. Comfortable. Favored. Safe. Almost instinctively, the response follows. Praise be. We say it quickly. We say ...read more

  • Rising After The Falling

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 14, 2026
    based on 1 rating
     | 193 views

    Wisdom is revealed not by uninterrupted success, but by honest resilience — rising again when life fractures and certainty collapses.

    Sir John Carbuncle is doing well. He owns land. His house is solid. His fences are straight. His accounts are in order. People speak of him with a certain confidence — not because they know his heart, but because they know his outcomes. In the early settling of America, a man like Sir John is ...read more

  • I Am Barabbas

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 15, 2026
     | 196 views

    Jesus stands innocent and silent while the guilty go free. In Barabbas, we see ourselves—released not by merit, but by Christ’s substitution.

    Every year at Passover, Jerusalem remembered a story of deliverance. They remembered blood on doorposts. They remembered judgment passing over. They remembered slaves walking free. Passover was never just history. It was identity. It was the story that told Israel who they were and how they were ...read more
