    Overcoming Our Reluctance Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Mar 12, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 23,609 views

    Gideon was an unlikely candidate to lead Israel against the Midianites, but God often uses the weak and inadequate. Our service to Him is not dependent upon our wisdom or ability, but it must rely on the Lord through faith.

    Overcoming our Reluctance Judges 6: 11-16 Living the Christian life isn’t always easy. In fact, we are often forced to deal with difficulties and struggles. At times we surrender to defeat and feel as if we lack the ability to overcome. I am sure we have all dealt with moments of insecurity, ...read more

    Putting Our Love Into Action Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 23, 2016
     | 14,090 views

    Our efforts for the Lord will be futile without love. We know the Bible commands that we love one another, and yet we fail to fully heed the command. Our world needs to experience love in action, not just in word.

    Putting our Love into Action 1 John 3: 11-17 Our text this evening continues to deal with the great theme of love that John has already dealt with extensively. I suppose there is no wonder John felt so impressed to emphasize love among the believers. He was blessed to walk with the Lord, studying ...read more

    This message was from the funeral of a Christian young person who died unexpectedly. It does not seek to answer all of the questions of their death, but point us to the one with the answers.

    MESSAGE - God’s Answer For Troubled Times There are times that test the soul. This is one of those times. It is at times like this that we wonder if anyone has ever experienced pain and loneliness so intently. This is the moment that that one pivotal question swirls unanswered and ...read more

    Hearing The Loneliness Of The Cross

    Contributed by Steven Chapman on Jun 22, 2015
     | 6,768 views

    This good Friday message speaks of the abandonment that Jesus expresses when God turns away from him. But it is loneliness that has meaning and purpose -- our salvation.

    Hearing The Loneliness Of The Cross Matthew 27:45-46 Usually, we have the cross posted at the top. Today, we have it right up front, some place that it can not be overlooked. On Tuesday, as the Worship Team prepared for rehearsal someone asked about the cross. It was said that it looks so much ...read more

    The world system we were raised in taught relative truth. Self-reliance, and only that which can be perceived through the natural is real. 2 Corinthians 4:18, teaches us that the unseen world is more real than the seen world.

    Hidden… With… Christ… In… God. Colossians 3:3 Colossians 3:3KJV ”For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.“ Several years ago, a pastor made appointment to see me.

    By keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus we receive comfort and unspeakable joy that is “eternal and transcends death, offering us something more than the grave as the goal of life!” So, let us not "water down" God's word to appease society but instead stand firm in the truth!

    Just as the biblical figure Jonah was summoned to the city of Nineveh to deliver a message of repentance, today's spiritual Nineveh represents a population that may lack understanding or awareness of moral and ethical principles.

    SCRIPTURAL REFERENCES (Jonah 1:1-4) (1) “Now the word of the LORD came unto Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,” (2) “Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness is come up before me.” (3) “But ...read more
