    Encouragement for those suffering from loss of loved ones, or loss of a dream.

    Mankind has struggled with many things. Probably the most difficult of these is adversity. Every since Adam and Eve were cast from the garden, mankind has faced adversity.

    This sermon was preached as my first sermon in the pulpit of my most recent appointment. It deals with transition and the need to move forward into the future while treasuring the past.

    No Turning Back: Following Jesus In A World That Pulls You Away

    Contributed by Antonio Manaytay on May 27, 2025
     | 738 views

    This sermon revisits the old hymn, I Have Decided to Follow Jesus, which is a powerful testimony of faith in Jesus.

    My dear brothers and sisters, We live in a world of constant pressure—to perform, to conform, and to compromise. Standing firm for our faith in this world can feel not just difficult—but dangerous. Some of you feel it in the workplace, in school, in your own homes. Some of you feel it online, ...read more

    Sermon for the 5th Sunday of Easter

    I would like you to this morning to do a mental cross-word puzzle with me. This puzzle has only one word to it, it is 4 letters long, but it is probably the most difficult word to understand in the English language. This word has caused more thorns in peoples’ sides, it has divided more people and ...read more

    If You Love Me Premium Sermon

     | 1,127 views

    The sermon explores the challenge of obeying Jesus' commands of love, forgiveness, and mercy, and the role of the Holy Spirit in empowering believers to live out these commands.

    I think we can all admit here today that obedience is difficult. It’s difficult to learn, difficult to teach, and it’s a difficult process to watch play out in the lives of others around us. It’s not something we’re good at, hard wired for, or frankly… enjoy. Once upon a time, there was a young ...read more

    Christianity reveals God’s love. Pontius Pilate is a caricature of human failure to govern itself. Let’s compare human governments with God’s wonderful government, the kingdom of heaven. Let’s look at the Palm Sunday parade from Matthew 21:1-11.

     | 3,937 views

    Sometimes it isn't easy to explain the Christmas story, or the reason why Jesus was born into this world. For a good number of people in Galatia, they didn't understand so Paul was led to explain it to them.

    Introduction: many of us are familiar with the stories of Jesus’ birth, as recorded in Matthew’s and Luke’s gospels. Paul seemed to know the story, too, but he never seemed to say much about it in his messages or his letters. He did explain the story to the Galatian believers, though, and this ...read more
