    Kingdom Keys - Romans Series

     | 870 views

    Christian Unity provides the quintessential witness that allows us to move towards the goal of giving everyone the opportunity to know Jesus as we do.

    So maybe you’ve heard it said, ‘read your bible’ so you tried and failed. Our hope as leaders is that all of us will pick up God’s word and come to understand the true nature of God. After all, the bible is God’s Word curated over centuries detailing His nature, His will, the meaning of life and ...read more

    Rejoice And Again I Say Rejoice!

    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,116 views

    God knows what’s around the corner, He knows what’s up around the bend. He knows and that’s all we need to know! That’s where the hard part comes in, because human nature feels like we ALWAYS need to know more!

    Rejoice and again I say Rejoice! So lift your hands and praise the Lord, for He is good, and His mercy endures forever! (Psalm 106:1) Hebrews 13:15 15. Therefore by Him let us continually offer the sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to His name. Everyone ...read more

    Focussing on the actions of Herod, we see that no one stood up to tell him he was doing wrong, and how well this speaks to us now when we stay silent, when we should really be speaking up.

    In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen. “Oh what a tangled web we weave when we practice to deceive.” A saying often mistakenly attributed to Shakespeare, but in fact was first published by Sir Walter Scott in the poem, “Marmion” in 1808. A phrase which speaks of betrayal, and ...read more

    This is a baby dedication service that can be adapted and used for any dedication of a baby or child

    Introduction The practice of dedicating a baby to the Lord is found in the presentation of Samuel by his mother, Hannah, in 1 Samuel 1:28 where Hannah says, “So I have also dedicated him to Yahweh; as long as he lives, he is dedicated to Yahweh.” When Jesus was still a few days old, Mary & ...read more

    Expect The Unexpected

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 27, 2022
     | 4,336 views

    Life is full of unexpected moments—it would be boring without them. But what happens when that unexpected moment is huge? It affects you personally, and it’s something that seems unbearable. It causes you to doubt. That’s what we find in Luke 7 with John the Baptist.

    Has something unexpected ever happened to you? —you find a 20 dollar bill in between the cushions on your couch —you bump into someone at the store that you haven’t seen in 5 years —the forecast says it’ll be sunny, but it pours —the dog decides to bring you a gift from the outside world, ...read more

    Introduction: Paul, Silas and Timothy had left Philippi. Now they’re heading towards Thessalonica and later Berea. People believed the Gospel, but others did not, so Paul and the others had to move on to other locations. 1 The Ministry in Thessalonica Text: Acts 17:1-9, KJV: 1 Now when they had ...read more

     | 1,252 views

    If we reject cultural stereotypes, classism and our own spiritual pride, in favor of unity, love and admiration for God and one another, we will accomplish the mission we have been placed on earth for.

    This week we continue our series called Chronos. A term which means time. We have decided to study the scriptures this year in the order they were published. It gives us a very unique insight into the early church and the struggles of a growing movement. This review of history is important because ...read more

    "i Speak As To Children"

    Contributed by Kyle Campbell on Aug 15, 2022
     | 1,653 views

    In 2 Corinthians 6:13 Paul said, “I speak as to children” which obviously shows Paul’s concern and love. In this text we can find several instructions that’ll benefit the children with whom God has blessed us (Psalm 127:3-5).

    Introduction. The Bible occasionally contains passages of dual application. An example of this would be in Ephesians 5:22-32 where Paul teaches about the relationship of husbands and wives, which he likens to Christ and the church. A similar passage is in 2 Corinthians 6:11-18 where Paul makes ...read more

     | 2,351 views

    Living a Godly life in Christ Jesus is profitable in all things on the earth and in the heavens. We are called to be good stewards of the Kingdom of God and as we work in the Kingdom of God we must be profitable by multiplying the favor and grace of God over all that our hands are spread over.

    SCRIPTURE: 1 TIMOTHY 4:6-11: If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained. 7 But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself rather ...read more

     | 2,125 views

    Surveys show that 94% of Americans own a Bible; 90% of us believe it still applies today—yet only half of us read it weekly (including church), and only 29% read it weekly outside of church. There is a disconnect here.
