Guarding Against The Enemy's Schemes Series

Contributed by Shaila Touchton on Mar 16, 2025

In this sermon, we will explore biblical examples of individuals who guarded their minds, hearts, and actions, and remained under the cover of God's protection.

The Bible warns us that the devil is like a roaring lion, seeking to devour those who are not prepared to resist his attacks (1 Peter 5:8). Sin, whether secret or open, can give the enemy a foothold in our lives, leading to destructive consequences such as broken relationships, anger issues, and ...read more

God's Discipline Vs. Our Pain Series

Contributed by David Wilson on Oct 12, 2007

From a series of Wednesday night Bible Studies on Psalms 1-23. David thinks he has been disciplined enough, but we take the time to contrast parental discipline and godly discipline.

Notes From Psalm 6 Verses 1-2 Discipline is unavoidable for the child of God. God’s discipline is a demonstration of divine love. See Hebrews 12: 4 - 11 Proverbs 13:24 The purpose of God’s discipline is not to crush us, but to create a right heart within us. What we think is God’s ...read more

Havin' Church

Contributed by Thomas Bowen on Nov 8, 2004

Corporate worship is up to you. We must not harden your hearts. Worship is the sharing of joy and the humbleness of our place.

A look at Revelation 5 and the all conquering lion who turns out to be a lamb that was slain, the paradox at the heart of Christianity and what it means for us in our daily struggle.

"God's Waiting Room"

Contributed by David Henderson on Sep 30, 2013

Patience is often defined in the Bible as longsuffering. Patience is an attitude of the heart. It is a virtue and in the eyes of God it is very valuable. He wants all of His children to have it.

“God’s Waiting Room” James 5:7-12 About ten years ago I had the bright idea that I would play football with a group of teenagers from the church. Tackle football. One of the first times that I got the ball 3 of them came up to me and grabbed me by my left arm and began to swing ...read more

Pull Up!

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 26, 2025

Holiness is God rescuing us from spiritual drift. Grace lifts us above sin, shaping our hearts to love what heaven loves forever.

(Call to Holiness) INTRODUCTION — The Great Danger of Drifting Every pilot knows that you don’t have to crash to die. Sometimes you just drift. A degree off-course here. A little neglect there. The gauges still look fine. Engines hum. Wings steady. But gradually… quietly… you descend. Until a ...read more

So Near -- So Far

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 28, 2025

Older brothers get lost at home—close to God yet far from His heart—but the Father invites them inside to enjoy His joy.

INTRODUCTION – MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND Today our nation pauses to remember those who gave their lives for freedom. For many, Memorial Day is a date on the calendar; for me, it is a name. My older brother Bob, now laid to rest in Arlington National Cemetery, reminds me that freedom always carries a ...read more

It Begins With Me

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 31, 2025

Revival starts where one heart turns—opening closed doors, cleansing hidden sin, and welcoming the Spirit’s rain until joy returns again.

Introduction — The Long Wait for Rain Sometimes revival doesn’t arrive with thunder. Sometimes it seeps in quietly—like rain through hard, cracked ground. For years we may live with the crust of complacency, calling it contentment. We tell ourselves that the season of power is past, that we’ve ...read more

Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 10, 2025

God values every soul, judges with mercy, and calls each heart to freedom—because He takes us more seriously than we ever imagined.

1 · When Nobody Seems to Notice High school can make you feel invisible. You walk down a hallway packed with noise, and somehow nobody really sees you.

That’s The Book For Me

God’s Word is wonderful to appreciate, vital to absorb, and powerful to apply—it shapes our steps, anchors our souls, and reveals God’s heart.

Part 1 — Appreciate Your Bible Most of us first met the Bible through a song long before we could spell “theology.” > “The B-I-B-L-E, yes that’s the book for me; I stand alone on the Word of God—the B-I-B-L-E. That little chorus carried a big truth: when all other voices clash, there’s one ...read more

I Wander As I Wander

Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 13, 2025

Wandering ends when we trust God more than our fears, letting His presence lead our hearts out of old circles and into promise.

There’s a phrase that has been turning over in my heart—one you might recognize, though not quite in the form you learned it. We know the old carol, “I Wonder as I Wander.” But somewhere along the way, in the wilderness seasons of my own life, it became this: “I wander as I wander.” Not poetic. ...read more
