     | 233 views

    God uses tangible things to remind us of Himself and spiritual things.

    A. WHY SYMBOLS ARE IMPORTANT 1. Christmas is filled with symbols. The world’s symbols are Santa Claus, tinsel, Christmas trees, snow, sleigh bells, holly, mistletoe, and presents.

    Faith That Works

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 9, 2025
     | 105 views

    True faith flows from love, not fear—transforming obedience from duty into joy, and belief into self-giving action that reveals Christ.

    Introduction — A Love That Moves You A few months ago, a young man named Daniel was driving home from work late one evening when he saw smoke billowing from a house on the corner of his street. Most people would have slowed down, maybe called 911, and waited for someone else to handle it. But ...read more

    From Empty To Full Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 10, 2025
     | 86 views

    The story that began with famine ends with fullness—because the Redeemer who restores Naomi’s arms still turns our emptiness into enough.

    (When Grace Finishes the Story) Introduction — The Last Scene Every good story ends where it began—but nothing looks the same. When we opened this book, we found famine, funerals, and tears in Moab. Now we end with a baby in Bethlehem. The story that began with emptiness ends with enough. If ...read more

     | 2,331 views

    Dark times have always been a part of history. There have been wars, famines, uprising, persecutions, tribulations, and trying times. The Bible reads with many of them and how God delivers His people through them all.

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Oct 1, 2024
     | 1,458 views

    “What do you see in the future? It is the same kind of questions people are asking today. When will we return to normal? When will the prices come down? Is there anyone worth voting for? Do we need a set of new leaders?

    Sermon: How Do You See The Future Scripture: Isaiah 21:11-12 This message came to me concerning Edom: Someone from Edom keeps calling to me, “Watchman, how much longer until morning? When will the night be over?” 12 The watchman replies, “Morning is coming, but night will soon return. If you wish ...read more

     | 1,237 views

    Psalm 66 is a corporate Psalm of Thanksgiving or Praise in response to the work of God in the lives of the people of Judah. This introductory message looks at the first four verses and the summons to praise - reflecting on the context of praise, the command to praise, and the content of our praise.

    Psalm 66:1–4 ESV Shout for joy to God, all the earth; sing the glory of his name; give to him glorious praise! Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds! So great is your power that your enemies come cringing to you. All the earth worships you and sings praises to you; they sing praises to ...read more

    Life From The Son

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 17, 2025
     | 92 views

    Worship is the soul turning toward Christ’s light—adoration that becomes transformation, joy that becomes service, life aligned with divine love.

    The Flower and the Smile: What Worship Really Is There are moments when a question feels too obvious to ask and yet too heavy to ignore. One of those questions has followed me for years: Why does God want our worship? If He is all-powerful, all-knowing, and all-sufficient, why would He want—much ...read more

    Easy Street Preacher

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 19, 2025
     | 88 views

    The gospel calls us from comfort to courage—leaving Easy Street to follow Christ on the narrow road where joy and purpose meet.

    1 · Welcome to Easy Street There’s a neighborhood in almost every town called Easy Street. Zillow says the homes are cozy, the lawns are trimmed, and the HOA guarantees peace and quiet—no barking dogs, no loud parties, and certainly no uncomfortable conversations. Everyone wants to live ...read more

    A mother's tears.

    A. INTRODUCTION 1. A mother’s tears: nothing so tender, so convicting, so touching and so powerful. Why? ? Because mothers are more tender and gentler than any others ? Because mothers care deeper than any others ? Because all life comes from mothers ? Because mothers have great hopes for the ...read more

    What Would Make Heaven Hell?

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 26, 2025
     | 150 views

    Heaven is joy only for hearts transformed by Jesus. Without holiness, God’s presence becomes torment. Christ alone gives us a heart fit for heaven.

    Heaven. The word alone sounds like comfort. Endless peace. Reunions. Rest. Joy without sorrow. Life without loss. Every funeral reminds us of it. Every aching heart hopes for it. If you asked the average person today what they believe about eternity, most would say something like, “Oh, sure, I ...read more

    So Near -- So Far

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 28, 2025
     | 123 views

    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

    When God Sings Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 8, 2025
     | 154 views

    God rejoices over His children with singing; His unending melody of love began at creation, triumphed at Calvary, and continues through redeemed hearts

    1 – The Unthinkable Sound We sing to God every Sabbath. We open our hymnals, follow the notes, and hope our voices find the right pitch before the second verse ends. Singing feels natural to us — after all, that’s what worshippers do. But Zephaniah flips the page. He says God sings. That’s not ...read more

    Here Comes Da Judge Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 11, 2025
     | 114 views

    (The Judge With Nail-Scarred Hands) The Judge bears the scars of our defense; His verdict is mercy, and His justice ends in joy for the redeemed.

    1 · When the Courtroom Comes to Town You’ve seen the memes. The judge walks in, everyone stands, and somewhere in your head a voice says, “Here comes da judge!” But the funny thing is— every one of us already has a court date. Not a traffic ticket, not detention for cutting class, but a date ...read more

    Heavenly Scent

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 15, 2025
     | 106 views

    Joy becomes the fragrance of a heart touched by the gospel, where obedience grows not from pressure but from Christ living within us.

    INTRODUCTION — CHILDREN’S SONG I want to begin tonight with something simple— something every one of us learned before we could spell “theology.” A children’s song. We didn’t realize it at the time, but that little song was preaching to us long before we understood it: “I’ve got the joy, joy, ...read more
