    Victory In Jesus Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 23, 2016
     | 13,990 views

    Far too many believers live defeated lives. The Lord is never pleased when we surrender to our difficulties and admit defeat. Granted we can't overcome within our own ability, but with the help of the Lord, we can live victoriously.

    Victory in Jesus 1 John 2: 1-6 As I studied this passage, I was reminded of the relationship John enjoyed with Christ. He was part of the inner circle, one of three that were closest to Jesus. I am convinced Jesus didn’t love those three more than the others, but they were privileged to ...read more

    Disciple’s Lack Of Understanding Rebuked: Blind Man Healed Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 22, 2017
     | 8,117 views

    These verses in Matthew and Mark are some of Jesus’ teaching concerning false doctrine. He compared false doctrine to yeast. It appears small and insignificant, but it grows secretly and soon saturates everything.

    -AD 29- Magdala (45) Disciple’s Lack of Understanding Rebuked: Blind Man Healed (Jerimiah 5:21) Matthew 16:5-12, Mark 8:14-26 These verses in Matthew and Mark are some of Jesus’ teaching concerning false doctrine.

    A message to adult's about the Lord's emphasis on children.

    “The Children’s Champion” Mark 10:13-16 Mark 10:13 And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his disciples rebuked those that brought them. 14 But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them ...read more

    The Pharisee And The Tax Collector

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Jul 29, 2018
     | 6,375 views

    Some people soak in their own righteousness; others seek a righteousness not their own. It is the latter who are in a right standing with God.

    HOW DO YOU KNOW that you’re right with God? Can you know such a thing? When I was in the eleventh grade, one of my friends took his own life. Some of you have heard me tell that story. I don’t want to get into the details now, but I do want to talk about the effect my friend’s death had on me. ...read more

    A Starting Place For Successful Ministry

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Sep 9, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,687 views

    The Apostle Paul who had invested so much in the life of young Timothy, helps him prepare for a new beginning by offering him a starting place for success. I believe this is also a starting place for successful ministers as we prepare others to make it on their own.

    Sermon: A Starting Place for Successful Ministry Scripture: 1 Timothy 2:1-6 1Ti 2:1 ¶ I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; 2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and ...read more

    Men Of Faith Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Nov 9, 2016
     | 10,617 views

    Paul planned to send Timothy and Epaphroditus to Philippi. He encouraged the church to embrace these men and benefit from their presence. They exemplified committed Christian service. We need those who will invest in others, impacting lives for Christ.

    Men of Faith Philippians 2: 19-30 Following a great discourse on the obedience of Christ to the will of the Father, and our obligations to possess the mind of Christ, Paul offers yet another example of faithful Christian service. In our text he makes an announcement that Timothy and Epaphroditus ...read more

    Nativity Series

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Dec 12, 2016
     | 6,848 views

    The word, "nativity" comes from the Latin word meaning, "to be born". But on that day it wasn't just about who was born, but also what was born. There were four things that came with the arrival of Jesus. Today we'll look at the first two-hope and peace.

    NATIVITY INTRODUCTION: The word, "nativity" comes from the Latin word meaning, "to be born". And if I were to ask you, who was born you would all answer, "Jesus". But on that blessed day it wasn't just about who was born, but also what was born. I'll be talking about four things that came with the ...read more

    Reflections on Jesus’ words to Mary and John from the cross

    At the cross her station keeping, Stood the mournful mother weeping, Close to Jesus to the last. Through her heart, his sorrow sharing, All his bitter anguish hearing, Now at length the sword had pass’d. Oh, how sad and sore distress’d Was that mother, highly blest Of the sole-begotten ...read more

    This is the 39th sermon in our series on Genesis, and in this sermon we talk about the death of Sarah and what we can learn from Abraham and Sarah's life and faithfulness.

    Finishing Strong (Genesis Pt. 39) Text: Genesis 23:1 – 20 By: Ken McKinley (Read Text) Well in last week’s sermon, we saw how Abraham’s faith has reached a new height. We saw how he was willing to trust God, even though he didn’t fully understand what was happening. He trusted God to the point, ...read more

    The Fear Of The Lord And The Love Of The Lord

    The Lord is to be feared, especially by those who are in rebellion against Him. However, the fear of the Lord seems to be absent from many churches. Is that spiritually healthy?

    Please open your Bibles to Mark 4:35-41 which we will read in a few minutes. This past week I saw a video of a comedienne ridiculing a devout, born again Christian and she was saying, “I am Christian, I love Jesus, but he thinks Jesus tells him to say things.” So, setting her slander aside, I was ...read more

    Invitation To An Encounter With God

     | 4,519 views

    It is certainly possible for us to miss the presence of God wherever we are, and be immersed in many other activities. How about being focused on seeking an encounter with God?

    Good evening. I realise that there are three categories of people here. First category are the new students who are eager to know what lies ahead of them. You are all charged up, all excited to be part of this great institution that you have joined. Second category is mixed lot of old students, ...read more

    Seek, Find And Obey: An Encounter With God

    Contributed by Dr. Madana Kumar, Phd on Feb 26, 2018
    based on 2 ratings
     | 13,473 views

    What happens when we seek the Lord? How do we react when we actually find him and have the encounter with the awesome God? We are called to obedience once we have the encounter with God. How often do we do this Seek, Find and Obey?

    Good morning. This morning, let us start with a basic question. Why do we come to church? Our church is a small congregation, and hence the number of responses we can get here might be limited. But if you do a poll in a large church, there are many common answers to this question. Some of us come ...read more

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

    Contributed by Peter Pilt on Apr 28, 2019
     | 7,099 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
