    Taking God For Granted

    Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Nov 27, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 265 views

    Are we truly devoted to God whole heartedly no matter what? Or are we only Christianity to see what's in it for us? Are we taking God for granted or are we humble before him? Today, I want us to search our souls and our hearts for the answers to these questions as we dive into the Gospel.

    The problem with our world today is not with a God who has never failed and is faithful from generation to generation. The problem in the world today are the hearts of evil men who take God for granted. And today, we turn to Psalms 78, and we see a chapter in Israel's history in which, time ...read more

    Hey Zach, Let's Go Home

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 30, 2025
     | 137 views

    Jesus stops under our tree, calls us by name, enters our desolate house, and fills our deepest loneliness with restoring, transforming grace.

    Part One — The Ache for Home There is a painting by Norman Rockwell that I have loved for years. Even before I knew why it gripped me, it spoke to something deep inside — that universal ache, that timeless yearning we all have for home. Not simply a house or a street address, but the place where ...read more

    My Child Has Come Home

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 3, 2025
     | 103 views

    The Father runs toward wandering children with restoring love, covering shame, celebrating repentance, and welcoming every prodigal home with joy and resurrection life.

    Introduction — When Words Can’t Touch the Wound There are some wounds in life that do not bleed outwardly, yet they bleed continuously inside a parent’s heart. These wounds have no bandage, no cast, no sling. They don’t show up in X-rays or MRIs. And yet they ache every single day. They are the ...read more

    Murder At The Altar

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 3, 2025
     | 175 views

    The first murder at the altar exposes the danger of unsurrendered worship, but Jesus’ blood speaks mercy, transforming Cain-like hearts through grace.

    There is a sentence that sounds almost unbelievable the first time you hear it. A sentence we tend to rush past because it feels too severe, too intrusive, too revealing. But when you slow down long enough to take it seriously, it begins to open a doorway into the human heart… and into the ...read more

    What God Wants Isn’t What You Think

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 4, 2025
     | 132 views

    Faith is not belief alone but a heart returning to and reaching for Jesus—seeking relationship, surrender, and wholeness in His presence.

    There are moments in Scripture so brief, so quiet, so easily passed over, that we almost miss the entire weight of Heaven behind them. Luke 17 records one of those moments—an encounter tucked into a journey, a miracle overshadowed by a greater truth, a healing overshadowed by a deeper kind of ...read more

    According To Your Faith

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 4, 2025
     | 187 views

    Jesus moves not according to our need, but according to our trust. True faith surrenders, saying “Yes, Lord,” and receives transforming grace.

    There are moments in the ministry of Jesus when His words fall like a key into the lock of the human heart—turning something, opening something, revealing something that changes everything about how we relate to Him. Matthew 9 contains one of those moments. It is only a sentence, only a breath, yet ...read more

    When Religion Collides With Revelation

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 8, 2025
     | 132 views

    Cain and Abel reveal two spiritual systems: self-made religion or grace-filled revelation. God accepts only the worship shaped by surrender to His revealed way.

    Some of the most defining moments in Scripture arrive without fanfare. No thunder. No angels. No miracles that split seas or shake mountains. Just a simple scene, described with almost startling brevity, that quietly reveals the inner architecture of the human heart. The story of Cain and Abel in ...read more

    Grace is the oxygen of heaven—opening the heart, empowering the climb, and transforming resistance into surrender so we can breathe freely at God’s altitude.

    >>> The Voice We Ignore There is a universal gesture that needs no translation. It crosses cultures, languages, borders, and time zones. Teenagers use it. Grandkids use it. Some husbands use it. And nearly every wife has perfected it. It’s the motion that says: “I am not receiving ...read more

    Unshakeable Joy In A Shaking World - Advent Message

    Contributed by Rev. Matthew Parker on Dec 14, 2025
     | 258 views

    This is a message about joy, during Advent. It is about how it is that we can have joy that does not change in the midst of our circumstances, and how we can sustain our awareness of that joy through loving obedience to God.

    Sermon for Advent 3 - Joy - December 14, 2025 - What gives you joy? Name one thing. What are some examples of joy? Of course I’ve had times of great happiness in my life which come close to joy. Marrying my beautiful wife Barbara in 1987 was a great highlight. And then comes the challenge of ...read more

    Have you ever thought about what it would be like to see and talk to the President of the United States? This would be a great honor but could prove to be a very difficult assignment, if not impossible!’

    • You would have to first get through some of the tightest security in the U.S. • Even if you did get past them you would have to get past a professional staff that is trained to keep people like you and I from invading the White House • If you made it to the White House you would have to ...read more

    God equips us with strength, armor, and prayer so we can stand firm, persevere, and find hope amid life’s battles and anxieties.

    Good morning, friends. If you carried worry into this room, welcome. If your week felt like an uphill climb through fog and thorns, you’re in the right place. If your heart is tired, your prayers feel thin, and your hope seems to fade by midweek, hear this: God has not forgotten your address. He ...read more

     | 128 views

    Relying on God’s strength and prayer, not our own efforts, equips us to stand firm and face life’s battles with confidence and peace.

    Friends, you made it here today—some with a spring in your step, some with a sigh in your chest, and some just barely holding it together. That’s okay. God loves honest hearts. Maybe you’ve been standing in a storm: the phone call you didn’t expect, the bill you can’t pay, the diagnosis you don’t ...read more

     | 64 views

    Jesus sees and loves His church, calls us to repent from compromise, and urges us to hold fast to Him with hope and faithfulness.

    Friends, gather your hearts. The Lord of the church has written us a letter. Not a postcard from far away, but a message pressed with nail-scarred love, addressed to people He knows by name. He sees the late-night prayers and the early-morning faithfulness. He hears the sighs nobody else hears. And ...read more

     | 182 views

    God’s mercy meets us in our deepest failures, offering forgiveness, cleansing, and restoration when we honestly confess and turn to Him with humble hearts.

    If you’ve ever sat in the quiet and felt the ache of regret—the kind that whispers, “How did I end up here?”—you’re in good company. If you’ve replayed a conversation you can’t unsay, a click you can’t undo, a glance that went too far, a promise you didn’t keep, you’re not alone. The Bible doesn’t ...read more
