    Finish What You Started

    Contributed by Nettie J Pennington on Dec 26, 2024
     | 1,161 views

    God’s BIG IDEA is for us to become disciples of the Lord, love Him wholeheartedly, and make our bodies a living sacrifice to Him.

    Prayer: Father God, Lord Jesus, hallowed is your holy name. In times like these, Lord, help us follow Your way and truth. We understand that we cannot fight evil with evil, so we humble ourselves before Your mighty throne and ask for strength to rise to Your level of integrity and discipline as we ...read more

    A Fresh Start In This New Year

    we need to approach this new year leaving all the garbage behind and live into the love that God has given us

    Last week we heard about a New Year’s resolution – one that encourages us to not compare ourselves to others. We need to recognize and revel in the growth in ourselves. Jesus told us, “I came so you can have real and eternal life, more and better life than you ever dreamed of.” (John 10:10, ...read more

    We long for revival, but revival seems to be delayed. Contemporary Christians must "break up the fallow ground" if we will ever experience revival.

    “From the days of Gibeah, you have sinned, O Israel; there they have continued. Shall not the war against the unjust overtake them in Gibeah? When I please, I will discipline them, and nations shall be gathered against them when they are bound up for their double iniquity. “Ephraim was a ...read more

    This is the third in a 7-part series on The Apostles Creed. I used this as a way to give folks in my new churches an understanding of my beliefs and our common ground as Believers.

    Revival doesn’t happen with wishful thinking, my brothers and sisters, but with purposeful prayer, amen?

    I know that I’ve been talking about a lot of discouraging things lately … there’s a lot to be discouraged about. I’ve got my list and you’ve probably got yours. But today, I want to remind us that it is never too late. There is always … hope! You see … as crazy as things are right now … as ...read more

    A Fresh Start For A New Year Series

    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Jan 5, 2019
     | 4,551 views

    In order to make “A Fresh Start for the New Year”, therefore, we need to understand and walk in 1) The Desire for Freedom (Galatians 4:21-23 , 2) The Design for Freedom (Galatians 4:24-27), and celebrate 3) The Delight of Freedom (Galatians 4:28-31).

    Dr. Yoel Abells in his article, Avoiding the failure trap of New Year’s resolutions wrote this: “(A New Year) is an opportunity to reflect on days past and to consider the future”. Typically at this time, we make resolutions or commitments to change something (or multiple things) about ourselves. ...read more

    Leadership requires preparation. Nehemiah has stepped into this role of leadership and now it is time for him to get prepared.

    BIBLICAL LEADERSHIP “Getting Started” Nehemiah 1:1-11 In 2016 we had one of the most interesting presidential elections we have had in decades. Perhaps ever.

    The turn of the year is the perfect time to deal with people about the big picture of their life's direction.

    A New Year…A New Start Pastor Eric J. Hanson January 1, 2017 People think of the start of each new year as a special time; a time of stepping through an important door into a new room; a room that has never been occupied and explored before. I believe that God has wired us this way. We mark our ...read more

    In spite of the fact that Prophet Elijah was one of the greatest spiritual giants of all time, he almost became a spiritual and kingdom dropout because of a combination of many factors. No matter what you're going through today, God's Word encourages you not to give up.

    "And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: because the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away." 1 Kings 19:14 (KJV).

    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

    If we will allow God to, He will do a great work in our lives. We must trust Him with all of our being knowing He knows what is best for our lives. He wants us to live an abundant, joyful life.

    Fresh Start for the New Year John 10:10 God wants us to have an abundant, joyful life. In order for that to happen, we must do some things to make it happen. We must also realize that Satan is constantly trying to rob us of that abundant life. He wants us to be bound up by things. He wants ...read more

    Celebrating life change that occurs through the Holy Spirit. This is a sermon that I have previously used and altered for the current situation in Fiji.

    When I think of the word, Pentecost I think of an Island that was discovered on that day in 1768 that is now one of the Islands of Vanuatu that I have flown over and that is the home of the original Bungy jump. Pentecost as a historical Jewish festival goes by a few different names that have ...read more

    God has gifted us with a fresh start through Jesus Christ. We are encouraged to (1) let go of our past, and (2) live with a renewed sense of purpose.

    Today, we will explore the incredible truth that God has given us a new life through Jesus Christ. This new life calls us to leave behind our past and embrace a renewed purpose. Let us dive into 2 Corinthians 5:17, which states, "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old ...read more
