    The Command To "Cheer Up!"

    Contributed by John Gaston on Nov 4, 2015
     | 10,017 views

    In one of Paul's most discouraged moments, the Lord Jesus appeared to him and told him to cheer up, giving him several reasons why. We too should be buoyed by the same command and encouragements.

    THE COMMAND TO CHEER UP Acts 23:6-11 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Dear Abby: One of the toughest tasks a church faces is choosing a good minister. A member of an official board had watched the pastor search committee reject applicant after applicant for some fault, alleged or otherwise. It was time ...read more

    We have to make choice to live a righteous life

    Lead me in the paths of righteousness for Your Name’s sake PS 23:3 Historians will probably call our era “the age of anxiety.” Though we have it easier than our forefathers, we have more uneasiness. I have read that if sheep are left by themselves they will wander in the same tracts over ...read more

    This Pentecost sermon emphasizes that the power of the Holy Spirit is greater than the evil in the world. Congregants are called to intentionally plan to come together and received the power of the Spirit.

    Scripture: Acts 2:1-21 NLT 1 On the day of Pentecost all the believers were meeting together in one place. 2 Suddenly, there was a sound from heaven like the roaring of a mighty windstorm, and it filled the house where they were sitting. 3 Then, what looked like flames or tongues of fire ...read more

     | 26,465 views

    How to take advantage of the new heart God promised to those who trust Him.

    Last week we looked at some attitudes we need to have when we’re facing difficulty. We reconsidered the fact that the problem isn’t always the problem. The problem is our attitude, or our focus, about our problems. We need to focus on our Great High Priest, Jesus, who is able to help ...read more

    Becoming A Difference Maker

    Contributed by Dennis Lee on May 2, 2016
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,902 views

    This sermon looks at how we can make a positive difference in our communities for Christ. We look at things that we can do 1) Change our thinking (Confession and Repentance). 2) Meet the needs of others, and 3) Share the Gospel message.

    Becoming A Difference Maker It's easy to assume that because we’re just one person we can’t possibly make or affect any sort of real change or difference. In "It’s A Wonderful Life", Jimmy Stewart plays a man named George Bailey. George has big dreams, but instead he winds up ...read more

    In the midst of troubling times, Christians must possess and live by faith. God is calling us to examine our faith and stand, committed to Him.

    Consider Your Faith Haggai 2: 20-23 Today I hope to conclude our study in the book of Haggai. Although written some 2,500 years ago, it has been very relevant for our day. If there were any doubts, I hope our time in Haggai has confirmed the timeless nature of God’s Word within your heart ...read more

    Sons Of The Resurrection Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,041 views

    The resurrection is real and Jesus, the Son of the Living God, will prove its reality in less than a week. God is the God of the Living not the dead.

    LUKE 20: 27-39 [JESUS’ LAST WEEK SERIES] SONS OF THE RESURRECTION Here is the final attempt in Luke to confound Jesus by arguments. It is only here that Luke’s gospel mentions the Sadducees. In order to question the Resurrection, a belief held both by Jesus (14:14) and the Pharisees (Acts ...read more

    The Thessalonians

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on May 26, 2022
     | 2,068 views

    On of the things that hurts the Lord’s work is that sometimes people join the church who are not sincere in their relationship with the Lord.

    These join for wrong reasons. For example, if you ask people what kind of church they are looking for, some answers will be: • “Well, I do not really like that church, but I probably will join the one down the street because it is convenient.” • “I am looking for a church with a good youth ...read more

    Preach The Word

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Nov 1, 2021
     | 4,535 views

    Paul gives Timothy one of the most solemn injunctions in scripture: 'preach the word'. He is talking about preaching God's word to God's people rather than sharing the gospel with people outside the church. It's a solemn message to us too, to hold fast to God's word.

    INTRODUCTION (EARLIER IN THE SERVICE) Today is our last week on 2 Timothy. Over the past three weeks we’ve looked at chapters 1 to 3. Today, we move on to chapter 4 – the last chapter in 2 Timothy. I’m going to do a short recap on what we’ve looked at so far before we turn to chapter 4 later in ...read more

     | 8,413 views

    If we are humble enough to ask, Christ will let His power rest on us to help us dear with the thorns we encounter in life.

    The year 1527 was the most trying year of Martin Luther’s life. On April 22 he was preaching in Wittenberg when he became dizzy and fainted. Over the next several months he dealt with debilitating depression and sickness. It had been 10 years since he had published his 95 theses. He had battled ...read more

    What Does It Mean To Say God Is Sovereign?

    Contributed by Douglas Phillips on Jun 23, 2019
     | 5,417 views

    TO SAY THAT GOD IS SOVEREIGN DOES NOT LIMIT OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM TO "DO'S AND DON'TS". IT ALLOWS US THE ASSURANCE THAT OUR AWESOME GOD, WANTS THE BEST FOR US AND IF WE ALLOW HIM TO BE SOVEREIGN WE WILL BE BLESSED AS A RESULT
