    A Faithful Mother Series

    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on May 6, 2011
    based on 1 rating
     | 10,820 views

    1) Authority (2 Timothy 1:1–2a), 2) Altruism (2 Timothy 1:2b), 3) Appreciation 2 Timothy 1:3a), 4) Appeal (2 Timothy 1:3b), 5) Affection (2 Timothy 1:4), and 6) Affirmation (2 Timothy 1:5).

    You can tell a lot about a relationship by the way people address each other. One of the most ironic of addresses is the "dear sir/madam" form letter address. In no way can someone be described as "dear" if we do not even know their name. When we give mother’s day cards, one of the basic addresses ...read more

    The Gospel Series

    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Aug 9, 2018
     | 7,082 views

    In Galatians 1:1-5, the Apostle Paul explains these facts of the Gospel in stating: 1) His authority (his right to speak) (Galatians 1:1-2), 2) His message (the truths he speaks) (Galatians 1:3–4), and 3) His motive (his reason for speaking) (Gal.1:5).

    Martin Luther (1483-1546), is known by many as the father of the Reformation. Luther had tried everything he knew to be a good Christian. He wrote:?"I was a good monk and kept my order so strictly that I could claim that if ever a monk were able to reach heaven by monkish discipline I should have ...read more

    Imagine if a governing authority told you, you must travel on January 1 – no exceptions. Let’s say you were given a one-way plane ticket where you can travel first class. Immediately you are excited but in the midst of your packing you pause to ask, “Where am I going?”

    Learn how to bring to bear the power, authority, and resources of heaven to your situation. While it's Super Bowl Sunday for the world, it's Super Sunday at church. Jesus said, “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” (Matthew 6:33)

    Lent 2019 - Jesus Under Attack Series

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Apr 6, 2019
     | 6,591 views

    Jesus, in His time on earth, was under attack in many ways by the Jewish leaders. He was argued with, defamed and crucified. Many in our society are attacking Jesus as well even from within some churches. Do we know enough about Jesus and His Word to recognize false teaching?

    Lent 2019 – Attacking The Rock Please stand as we read our newest memory Scripture together … 2 Timothy 4:3-4 “The time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ...read more

    Teacher's Pet Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 17,223 views

    I want to be Jesus' teacher's pet. I want to be His favorite pupil. This passage gives us the key to pleasing Jesus and becoming more like Him in my life. (Spoiler alert - it has to do with how I treat people I don't like)

    OPEN: A great scholar was once asked about a young man who was in his class. The person said, "So and so tells me that he was one of your students." The scholar just smiled sadly and said, "Well, he may have attended my lectures, but he was not one of my students.” What was that scholar saying? ...read more

    Top Ten Reasons Why Easter Jesus Is Better Than Christmas Jesus – Part 2

    Contributed by Peter Pilt on Apr 28, 2019
     | 6,748 views

    This was a creative way we presented the Easter Story. We looked at the ways that Easter Jesus is better than Christmas Jesus and then decorated the auditorium half as Easter and half as Christmas. It worked very well.This post is Part Two of Top Ten Reasons.

    During Easter 2019, I preached a creative message on Good Friday and Easter Sunday looking at the The Top Ten Reasons why Easter Jesus is better than Christmas Jesus. Now I understand that Christmas and Easter Jesus are the same Jesus…but the point I am trying to make is that the world is more ...read more

    You can put a bunch of cats in a burlap bag and you'll have ONE bag full of cats, but you won't have unity. So what makes us one body? The answer is so obvious we sometimes miss it.

    OPEN: Today is our “Unity Service”. We have 3 different languages represented: Burmese; Spanish and English. A lot of us look forward to this worship service because (despite the fact that we come from different backgrounds) we all really seem to like each other. I believe that this is the type of ...read more

    The Lies We Believe

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Jul 18, 2020
     | 6,539 views

    There are phrases we’ve heard and used over the years that are not true even though we use them as if they were.

    This morning, we’re going to talk about the “The Lies (L-I-E-S) That We Believe “ And the reason I titled it “The Lies We Believe” is because that’s what the Lord told me to title it. (Laughter) Stephen and I were watching a program on ESPN called “30-30” which looks at the history of athletics ...read more

    Sermon # 30 - The Blessings Of Obedience Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 10, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,176 views

    Obedience to God and His word has rewards, and disobedience also has its consequences. The experiences of some from the bible will help us learn how we too can be recipients of God’s blessings in our lives.

    We read in Genesis 22:18, “Every nation on the earth will be blessed through your descendants. I will do this because you obeyed me." (ERV) We also read in Genesis 3:14, “So the LORD God said to the snake, "Because you have done this, you are cursed more than all the wild or domestic ...read more

    "where Is The Glory Of God In Today's Church?"

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,874 views

    Those who accept this message will be motivated to seek a deeper relationship with God. Nowadays, many individuals in the church tend to follow pastors rather than seek God's presence, resulting in more spiritual power outside the church than within.

    Sermon # 34 - A True Disciple Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,576 views

    There are many who follow Jesus, but only a few who genuinely seek to live as His disciples. Let’s understand who a true disciple is, and what Jesus expects of those who are His disciples.

    We read in Matthew 4:25, “Large crowds followed him. They came from Galilee, the Ten Cities, Jerusalem, Judea, and from across the Jordan River.” (GW) Great multitudes of people followed after Jesus while He was here on earth, and there were several reasons why they did so. As we study the ...read more

    Is God In Control - Part 1 Series

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Dec 27, 2023
     | 1,284 views

    When it comes to the belief that God is in control of the things that happen, many in the Church believe that He either consents to what happens, or He allows what happens. This is a two-part Bible study on the subject.

    NOTE: New Light Faith Ministries and Barry Johnson Ministries, founded by brothers Rodney V. Johnson and Barry O. Johnson, respectively, are partnering to offer Bible studies for Christians who are seeking to grow in their relationship with Jesus. This is a Bible study lesson, not a sermon. The ...read more

    One of Aesop’s Fables is about a wolf in sheep’s clothing. A wolf had his eye on a certain flock of sheep, but he couldn’t get any of the sheep he wanted because of the vigilance of the shepherd and his dogs. Then he saw the skin of a sheep that had been flayed, so he put the skin on as a costume ...read more
