    The Virgin Mary Has So Much To Teach Us As The Fountain Of Faith, And Grace

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Dec 21, 2014
     | 4,860 views

    We always know who Mary was the mother of our Lord, but forget that for a moment, and focus on her faith and her calling, and you will see how powerful and relevant that is for us today. Read on and enjoy !!!

    This sermon (Advent 2 year B) was delivered to St Oswald’s in Maybole, Ayrshire, Scotland on the 7th December 2014 by Gordon McCulloch (a Scottish Episcopal Church in the Dioceses of Glasgow and Dumfries). Summary: We always know who Mary was, but forget that for a moment, and focus on her ...read more

    Already, But Not Yet

     | 5,430 views

    What are the kingdom of heaven and the kingdom of God? Where are they located? Does knowing hold any significance for the believer? The kingdom was part of Jesus' message, and it should be a part of our message too.

    I have entitled our message this morning “Already, But Not Yet.” This sermon title may sound a bit strange; however, it will soon make sense. I am going to have us focus on the topic of the kingdom, and see if we can identify its location. Many of us will probably say, “Well, that’s easy! The ...read more

    The Sifting Of The Saints

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 25, 2022
     | 6,929 views

    This passage of scripture has to do with the “sifting” of the saints. Before we can fully appreciate what this passage is teaching, we have to know something about sifting.

    Illus: Some of the older women in this congregation can remember when years ago they had a “sifter” in their kitchen. This was something they could hold with one hand, and use the other hand to turn a handle that rotated a wire wheel inside the sifter basket. As they prepared a meal for their ...read more

    Lost And Found

    Contributed by James May on Feb 27, 2022
     | 6,739 views

    We may lose some things that may be desirable in this life by surrendering our lives to Jesus, but the life we gain is far greater than anything we have now. And the life in Christ is always learned through the preaching of the Word, in whatever form it comes to us.

    How many of you have found yourself looking for something that was lost, but no matter how hard you searched, you couldn’t find it? I think we can all say that this has happened to us at some point. There is a commercial running on the TV right now where a man is searching the house over trying ...read more

    Our Salvation In Jesus Alone Series

     | 1,794 views

    Here is a very simple truth: for us to reach the world we must uncompromisingly be church the church that Christ called the Church to be.

    As we continue through the book of Ephesians, we’re getting ready to transition from the introductory blessings into the meat of this book. I want to reiterate the dominating theme of Ephesians. That should be evident by the title of our series, Jesus Only. The Christian faith will always, always ...read more

    Thou Shalt Have No Other Gods Series

    America has turned its back on the God of the Bible. There are so many religions and beliefs in our country today. The only God America has rejected is the God of the Bible. The Ten Commandments are the very soul of America. This is why the Ten Commandments are so important to the people of God.

    If you have your Bible, turn to Exodus chapter 20. Today, we are going to begin a sermon series called, "The Ten Commandments: The Soul of America", starting with the message, "Thou Shalt Have No Other Gods". America has turned its back on the God of the Bible. There are so many ...read more

    Taken from John Ortberg's book and small group series. These are sermons that I created to go with series.

    We are starting a brand-new series of messages that we will not only preach about on Sunday morning, but we will talk about in small groups this week using video, using guides for discussion. This series is called “eternity is now in session.” The basic premise is that God just doesn’t want to get ...read more

    Jesus invites to experience his presence and union with him. Jesus calls it "abiding." What is it and how does it happen?

    Eternity is now in session. We are wrapping up a five-week series in which we have tried to understand that eternity doesn’t start way out there after we die, eternity and eternal life and the abundant life starts now, we can have it now. Following Jesus is not about getting us into heaven later, ...read more

    What Will You Do With Christ Child? Christmas!

    This sermon looks at the motives of four different Christmas characters of why they came to Christ and what they went away with once they left. The characters are the shepherds, the soldiers, King Herod and the Magi.

    What Will You Do With The Christ Child? Mathew 1:18-2:1-12 Luke 2:4-18 12/22/2019 Let’s see what type of groups we are made up of this morning.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,898 views

    What do we expect God to do in our lives in the coming year. What can we expect from the new year that God brings to us. The Life of Elijah shows that God works even through our discouragement.

    “What Are You Doing Here” 1Kings 19:1-18 1 Peter 4:12-19 1/13/2020 Have you ever given someone an assignment to go and do something, and you thought they had left to do it. But then you turn around later and they are in the same spot, and you ask the question, “what are you doing here?” ...read more

    Psalm 1 – This Way And That Way – Which Way Are You On? Part 2 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 5, 2022
     | 2,408 views

    Part 2 continues the examination of Psalm 1, the Psalm of The Two Ways. One is either in Christ or not in Christ; in the camp of the saved, or the camp of the unsaved; living with a glorious hope, or living with a fearful expectation. We draw out lessons from this Psalm.

    PSALM 1 – THIS WAY AND THAT WAY – WHICH WAY ARE YOU ON? PART 2 PSALM 1 – THE TWO WAYS This message continues on from PART 1 THE TREE OF VALUABLE BLESSING VERSE 3. {{Psalm 1:3 “and he will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water which yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does ...read more

    The Man With The Pitcher, Not The Picture, Just The Pitcher Series

     | 2,792 views

    Guidance can be difficult and we may struggle with it. God often send to us the man with a pitcher. We don't have much of a picture of what lies ahead, but the Lord is there. Just take note of the man with a pitcher.

    THE MAN WITH THE PITCHER, NOT THE PICTURE, JUST THE PITCHER [1]. THE MESSAGE FROM PILGRIM’S PROGRESS Who has read Pilgrim’s Progress by John Bunyan? I love that book. Many decades ago, and all through the 1800s etc., nearly everyone read Pilgrim’s Progress, even non-Christians. Sometimes in ...read more

    Living In The Kingdom Part 13 Series

     | 1,834 views

    In Part 13 of this series, we examine what Jesus said about our charitable giving being private. When we give to the church or do anything for those in need it should not be publicized in a desire to receive recognition for what we have done.

    Living in the Kingdom 13 Scripture: Matthew 6:1-4; 23:2-5; Exodus 13:16; Numbers 15:38 I am continuing with my series “Living in the Kingdom.” This week we will begin examining what is recorded in the first four verses of Matthew chapter six.

    In 1 Samuel we have the very exciting story of David and Goliath. From the human viewpoint, this was the biggest mismatch that has ever occurred.

They would not think of putting a "feather" weight, weighing just a little more than a hundred pounds, in the ring with a ...read more

    Inward Or Outward Focused?

     | 5,416 views

    This passage about the four lepers shows us the results of being either inward focused or outward focused. We are able to see the consequences of turning inward, versus the rewards of looking outward and stepping out in faith.

    Our message this morning is entitled, “Inward or Outward Focused?” How many of you have heard of churches being either inward focused or outward focused? I am sure some of you have encountered this idea at some point in your Christian walk. Leith Anderson, the pastor of Wooddale Church in Eden ...read more
