  • Never Surrender Your Authenticity

    Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Apr 6, 2020
     | 2,082 views

    Jesus says let "yes" be yes and "no" be no. Righteousness must exceed the Pharisees. They surrendered their authenticity to appear more religious. This sermon is an encouragement to live in the opposite manner.

    Never Surrender Your Authenticity Counterfeiters make over a billion dollars a year, making fake designer clothes and handbags. That billion is from the United States, not the rest of the world. These are not cheap knock offs from street vendors; they are well-made fakes. There's an ...read more

    The Law of Love: How Compassion Can Change Your Life By The Rev. Rian Adams Have you ever wondered how to spot a hypocrite?

    the word TEST

    February 19, 2022 None of the 3 letters assigned to John bear his name, but early church records and a thematic connection to the Gospel of John suggests that the author is John “the beloved”. All 3 letters were likely written between 80-90 AD. By that time the church had been around for ...read more

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jan 8, 2022
     | 2,436 views

    As a prophetess, Anna receives insight into things that typically remain hidden to ordinary people; she recognizes this child and tells of his significance to selected people in Jerusalem.

    Regarding Anna, Luke provides three terse verses that manage to vividly depict her as a woman deserving the honor bestowed on the elderly in the ancient Mediterranean world (v. 36-38). She could well serve as the Bible's example of a remarkable woman and mother. The appositive prophetess heads ...read more

     | 4,549 views

    When a church has a good reputation, much activity and past accomplishment it does not guarantee a spiritually alive church.

    George Barna in his book Turnaround Churches, profiles thirty churches that were about to die and made a turnaround. He compares dying churches to the Sears Catalogue. For about 100 years Sears was the symbol of mail order catalogue business. They introduced their mail order catalogue in 1894. For ...read more

     | 902 views

    As we end this year of grace, we can confidently face the future, even if we never have a really good king or president or prime minister in our earthly life.

    Christ the King 2023 I have pretty strong memories of the Feast of Christ the King during my elementary years at a Catholic boys’ school. My parents would see me dressed up in my school uniform, which was styled like a U.S. Army class A uniform from WW2, but with maroon dyes, and the whole school ...read more

  • Looking Like Christ

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Mar 28, 2023
     | 1,405 views

    What does it mean that we are made in the "image" and "likeness" of God? How can we look like Christ in our Christian lives?

    When it comes to replicas, there’s nothing that’s been replicated more than expensive watches. There are entire websites that exist simply to sell you a replica Rolex watch. These watches look like the real deal—they even have the Rolex logo—but actually they were made in China and aren’t worth ...read more

  • Coming To The Feast Series

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Nov 5, 2022
     | 3,018 views

    This message is intended to explain the great offense shown in ignoring both the invitation to the Feast and the refusal to wear the proper wedding Garment, which is a reflection of Christ's Righteousness.

    The parable which began Matthew 22, our Gospel lesson this morning, is a parable that can really bug people. It’s shocking and disturbing and I have found over the years that people complain about it because of how harsh it is. It also serves as a good way for us to better understand how to ...read more

  • The Problem That Did Not Prosper

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Nov 24, 2022
     | 1,145 views

    We do not need to let our fears control us. By doing so we make our fears come in front of God. We need to recognize that God is stronger than our fears and when He has called us to do something, He will help us in doing that task.

    Nehemiah was the cupbearer to the king of Persia, Artaxerxes. He was a man of God and was a trusted advisor to the king. Many decades prior, Zerubbabel was able to get the Jerusalem Temple rebuilt. Some years later, Ezra had returned to Jerusalem to help with the spiritual needs of the people. Now ...read more
