Sermon # 2 - Walk With God And Fulfill His Purpose Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jul 2, 2024

Every believer has been chosen by God to fulfill a specific purpose in and through their lives. Only those who walk with God and discern His will can accomplish that purpose and bring glory to God.

We read in 1 Samuel 2:35, And I will raise up for myself a faithful priest, who shall do according to what is in my heart and in my mind. And I will build him a sure house, and he shall go in and out before my anointed forever. (ESV) The Lord’s promise to us for the New Year is that God will build ...read more

Sermon # 37 - The Father's Love Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jul 17, 2025

The love that God the Father demonstrated when He sent His only begotten Son Jesus into this world is unfathomable. It’s this love of God that saved us, protects us, provides for our needs, trusts and accepts us in spite of all our faults and failings.

For our meditation today let me highlight this verse from 1 John 3:1, “See how much the Father has loved us! His love is so great that we are called God's children—and so, in fact, we are.” (GNB) Can you imagine the amazing love God the Father has lavished on us, that we have the wonderful ...read more

Kindness: Overcoming Selfishness Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Feb 5, 2023

Mark Twain said, “Kindness is a language which the deaf can hear, and the blind can see.” Many think it only take willpower to be kind. No, it takes supernatural power to be kind.

Did you see the recent news article about the cabbie that found $187,000 in cash? Yes, a Boston taxi cab driver dropped off a homeless man at a hotel.

Witchcraft Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Apr 27, 2003

Saul continues to disobey God, this time by resorting to witchcraft. But God never abandons his people. He has a king prepared who’s a man after his own heart, who’ll restore the fortunes of Israel: David, the shepherd boy, who’s become a great warrior th

What we find as we read through the books of 1&2 Samuel is a mix of battle narratives and character studies. The action sequences are important because they show how the nation of Israel emerges as a force to be reckoned with, but often it’s in the character studies that we find the points of ...read more

Lessons In Glorious Giving

Waiting Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Oct 29, 2012

The thing we have the least patience with is waiting. When we are facing a difficulty we want instant results. When God doesn't operate on our table we get frustrated. David got frustrated too but how he handles it can help us have patience too.

Psalm 13 teaches that waiting is really hard. There is nothing worse than being in a tough space and pleading with God and nothing happens! We saw this in Psalm 10 as well when David cried: “Why do you stand so far away?” 1 David feels like God must have forgotten him in his trial. ...read more

Pardon Me, But Your Frame Is Showing

Contributed by James May on Mar 4, 2013

David said in Psalms 103:14 that God knows our frame, that we are created from the dust of the earth that is corrupted by sin. How often does that frame show as we go about our daily lives? So many times I just want to stop someone in their tracks when

Pardon Me, But Your Frame Is Showing By Rev. James May One of my favorite bumper stickers says, “Christians aren’t perfect, just forgiven”. That sums up the life of a Christian in just about as few words as I could think of. The Bible tells us in Romans 7:18 For I know that in ...read more

Moving When God Moves

Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 20, 2019

After a military victory, David didn't rush back to battle, but inquired of the Lord. As a result he was informed where and win to engage the battle. Without this heavenly intel, he and Israel would have been defeated. We too must inquire of God and move when God moves!
