    Colossians: Household Rules Series

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on Jun 21, 2025
     | 426 views

    This passage contains the dreaded "S" word, submit. But what did that mean 2000 years ago in Colossa and what does it mean for us today.

    It was a struggle; I was thinking that this week I would preach from Colossians 4:5–6 Live wisely among those who are not believers, and make the most of every opportunity. Let your conversation be gracious and attractive so that you will have the right response for everyone. I thought that I would ...read more

     | 390 views

    If you’ve ever felt stuck in your faith, stalled in your growth, or just unsure of where you stand with God, Paul has a word for you today: The Gospel isn’t just how you begin—it’s how you keep going. And it’s how you’ll finish.

    “The Gospel at Work in You” Philippians 1:1–11 Ok, I can be honest with myself: I need to lose weight. This isn’t about vanity—it’s about health. I’ve felt it in my energy levels, my sleep, and the way my clothes fit. I remember back in December thinking, “I really need to get serious about ...read more

    Elevate To The Next Level - "The People God Uses”

     | 984 views

    One of the greatest needs in the church is for people who will not only serve, but who will also lead. It is about those who will invest themselves in the lives of others. I see four examples in Nehemiah’s first actions that separates him, not only as a leader but as a person that God uses.

    When You Feel Abandoned

     | 1,567 views

    Emotional abandonment is a powerful feeling. It makes us feel like we are unwanted, forgotten, left out, and ignored. We often feel this way when we feel that we are cut off from God or unnecessary to God. What does God call me to do when I feel distant and and abandoned by Him?

    One of the greatest rescue stories in history occurred in 2010; 33 miners were trapped underground in a copper mine in Chile when suddenly the shaft collapsed and they were buried alive deep in the earth.

     | 1,684 views

    Why Wikipedia beats printed encylcopedias. How doing the hardest thing (what's that?) can help lift our spirits when we are low. And how that fits not just with Jesus's saying about saltiness but with the rest of today's bible readings. A sermon from September 2015

    Have a taste of this [hand out teaspoon of salt to someone in the front row] “If salt loses it’s saltiness with what will you season it?” I have two things that I would like to draw out of today’s texts about ways in which we can lose our saltiness - one personal and one public. One personal - ...read more

    Sermon - The Paradox Of Biblical Faith

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Oct 15, 2024
     | 901 views

    Believers today must likewise persevere in faith and trust God, even when they do not see all the promises of God fulfilled in their lives. The faith that pleases God is a faith that can surrender God's promises back to Him and trust God for their fulfillment according to His will.

    Subject: The Paradox of Biblical Faith Scripture Text: Hebrews 11:13-16 "All these people died still believing what God had promised them. They did not receive what was promised, but they saw it all from a distance and welcomed it. They agreed that they were foreigners and nomads here on ...read more

     | 947 views

    The rest provided by God energizes us for God’s Kingdom Business, and it all comes down to a matter of faith. Will we trust and believe? And so, the rest that energizes us to engage this world is a rest that can only be found in Jesus Christ.

    An Energizing Rest Watch on YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6RmLBe143tg&t=39s I wanted to end our series on Energizing to Engage with the topic of rest, and that’s because the rest provided by God energizes us for God’s Kingdom purposes.

    Contributed by Melvin Maughmer, Jr. on Nov 4, 2024
     | 2,331 views

    What the world needs now is for the Church to be what God intended for it to be. We need to walk circumspectly, carefully and discreetly making sure our steps are order by the Lord, that He is leading and guiding us and that we are not just wandering aimlessly through this world.

    What the World Really Needs By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. OPENING:- The other week I spoke about the Evangelical preacher that so-called rebuked the Black church for endorsing and voting for Kamala Harris and by now I am sure you know it was Donnie Swaggart that made the statement and people ...read more

    Sermon - Rejection Is Not Your Final Destination

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Nov 5, 2024
     | 1,527 views

    While rejection is painful, its purpose is planned. God often uses man's rejection to redirect his people back into His will for their lives.

    Subject: Rejection Is Not Your Final Destination Text: Judges 11:1-11 “Now Jephthah of Gilead was a great warrior. He was the son of Gilead, but his mother was a prostitute.
