    This sermon focuses on the actual journey from Nazareth to Bethlehem by Mary and Joseph before the birth of Christ

    Christmas: Reason To Hope

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Nov 28, 2020
     | 4,162 views

    Simeon hoped to see the messiah before he died and he did. His story teaches us something about why we hope and how to hope.

    We’ve just sung that great song by Keith Getty and Stuart Townend, ‘In Christ alone my hope is found.’ That’s quite a declaration! Getty wrote the music and Townend wrote the words. Townend isn’t merely saying that Jesus is A source of HOPE. He’s saying that Jesus is the ONLY source of hope! ...read more

    Letting Peace Rule Series

    Contributed by Doug Fannon on Dec 7, 2020
     | 4,120 views

    We have been given the means by which we can have peace within the body of Christ. All Bible references are from the NASB.

    Peace. How much we long for it. We look around the our world, and we find no peace. We look around our nation, which is more divided than I have ever seen it, there is no peace to be found. We look around our town, our community and even here, peace is often elusive. In many of our homes, I ...read more

    The Hope Of Singing Series

    Contributed by Rev. Duraimony Dickson on Dec 10, 2020
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,096 views

    Let us prepare for the birth of Christ with songs of joy and thanksgiving. Let us sing as God’s people with one unified voice. Let us come closer together as God’s children as we sing His praises.

    The Hope of Singing Isaiah 35:1-10 There was once a woman who was talking to her parents who had recently retired. Her mother had always wanted to learn how to play the piano, so her father bought a piano for his wife’s birthday. A few weeks later, the woman asked her father how she was doing with ...read more

    The Purpose Of The Parables Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Sep 10, 2020
     | 6,205 views

    Jesus uses parables to either reveal callous hearts where the word is being taken away, or reveal receptive hearts which have an increasing harvest.

    Message Matthew 13:10-17 “The Purpose of the Parables” Today we are starting a series of sermons which will look at the Parables of Jesus. “Parable” is the English translation of a Greek word which literally means “to place alongside”. From this literal meaning we get the idea that a parable is a ...read more

    This is a 7 Year Anniversary sermon reflecting on two churches that merged together and the ministry God has done through them

    What’s Still The Same? Psalm Psalms 93:1-5 Hebrews 13:1-8 It was about 8 years ago that Glenville New Life Community Church and Calvary Presbyterian Church began to explore the idea of coming together to form one congregation. After a lot of prayer, discussions, meetings and votes, we ...read more

    Modern-Day Legalism (Part 1) Series

    Contributed by Greg Powell on Sep 23, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,360 views

    We have seen how legalism in Paul’s day added works to salvation, but that is largely not what modern-day legalism is in the church now. Legalism for us applies in the area of how we perceive our sanctification and how we portray our spirituality to others.

    INTRO: I need to explain what is going on with the next couple of messages. We have dipped our toe in the water of legalism as it has been addressed in the book of Galatians so far. I am going to take a couple messages and jump into the entire pool of what legalism looks like for us today. We ...read more

    The Gift Is Better Than The Wages

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Oct 3, 2021
     | 4,501 views

    Thankfully, Romans 6:23 does not end with the words the wages of sin is death. It continues with the promise we all need, saying that yes, death is the punishment for sin, “but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

    Alba 10-3-2021 THE GIFT IS BETTER THAN THE WAGES Romans 6:23 Sin. There is that word again. It dogs us, it tempts us, and it uses us and tears us down. It is like a virus that doesn't go away. Sin is the virus that has infected the whole human race – there is no human cure for it and there ...read more

    If you can take your own blood to fix some of your bodies ailments, how much more can the blood of Jesus do for us!

    TITLE: NOTHING BUT THE BLOOD SCRIPTURE: LEVITICUS 17:11 (Main points adapted from sermon from Rev. Jerry Shirley) Last month I had gone to the hospital for what was supposed to have been a simple surgical procedure that ultimately turned out to be a nightmare.

    Seven Days To Revival

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 25, 2021
     | 3,129 views

    We look at 3 key turning points in Scripture. We have the choice of living in a backslidden state or to take definite steps to change, to decide "I will have more of God and God will have more of me!"

    SEVEN DAYS TO REVIVAL INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. It happened at an Amazon Call center. The manager was walking down a line of cubicles listening as the phone staff fielded orders for products. 2. He stopped when he overheard one say to a customer, “No ma’am, we haven’t had any for weeks now, ...read more

    Gathering For Encouragement Series

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Aug 2, 2021
     | 5,372 views

    Hebrews 12:1 tells us to 'run with endurance'. Only long races need endurance - marathons, for example. In a marathon, encouragement makes all the difference. The Christian life can be tough. We need encouragement and we need to encourage others.

    Today we’re starting a new series. We will have four talks on the theme of ‘Why we gather’. Last Sunday we met back at church after sixteen months of having our morning services online. That’s a significant moment. But something else has been happening. About four months ago we started a new ...read more

    Preserved, Not Pickled

    Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 8, 2021
     | 4,433 views

    When canning fruits and vegetables, there have always been two primary ways to preserve them: as preserves, or pickled. The difference? Preserves are sweet but pickled things are sour. Which are you?

    PRESERVED, NOT PICKLED Ps. 121:1-8 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Week after week, a man came to his preacher with a big problem. He said, “When I go to bed, I can’t sleep because I’m afraid of monsters under my bed. I know it’s silly, but I can’t help it.” 2. His preacher recommended prayer, ...read more
