    When A Doggie Bag Isn't Available (Jesus Feeds The 5,000) Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Aug 2, 2024
     | 635 views

    All cards on the table now: I would have been skeptical had I been there that day. I would have been looking around to see if someone else brought food. Had He only fed the multitudes, I probably would have never believed this story.

    Today, we look at one of Jesus’ most famous miracles. We look at when He feeds the multitudes with a boy’s sack lunch. In just a few moments, we invite all believers in Christ to take the Lord’s Supper with us. Invitation After today’s message, you will be invited to respond to Jesus’ offer of a ...read more

    There Are Two Certainties In Life; Taxes And Death. And I'm Not Here To Talk About Taxes

    Contributed by Robert Irvine on Aug 16, 2024
     | 493 views

    Being diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer back in March (presently at Stage 3), really changed my outlook. It also brought me face to face with the fact that I am going to die at some point. Death isn’t now some concept that I could ignore, but a reality that I had to face.

    Being diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer back in March (presently at Stage 3), really changed my outlook. I started to declare the Good News of Jesus Christ much more seriously. It also brought me face to face with the fact that I am going to die at some point. Death isn’t now ...read more

    The Christian's hope is not just to live a long life on earth, but to live forever with God in heaven. —J. I. Packer

    Good morning, dear friends. I'm so delighted to see each one of you here today. There's a sense of shared joy, shared faith, and shared hope that fills this room and each home online as we gather, and it's a beautiful thing. We are here, not because we are perfect, but because we are ...read more

    Our Troublesome Tongues

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Aug 26, 2024
     | 1,119 views

    As James challenges his readers to have a true religion, he comes to a part of our faith-life that is nearly impossible to control - our tongues.

    Before we dive into the main content of the message today, I want to point out something rather obvious - there are no notes in your bulletins. There is a sense in which this sermon is set up fairly similarly to others - a couple of main points with smaller points, but there is also a sense in ...read more

    Offended By Jesus Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Aug 28, 2024
     | 915 views

    I want to answer one question this morning: How Do You Know if You are a Genuine Believer?

    Can you remember a time when you were truly offended? I’ll be 53 later this year, and I was recently asked if I’d like the “senior discount” at a nearby restaurant. After I noted all my grey hair, the waitress really recovered well when she said, “Well, you don’t have wrinkles on your face.” Have ...read more

    The promise of the King of Glory arriving

    Who is this King of Glory? Psalm 24 Good morning. In Medieval times, a King had total dominion, and giving an order to kill a subject was completely at a king’s discretion. Paying homage to a king involves a subject, publicly declaring their total allegiance to a monarch, and the king had the ...read more

    The Laws Of Almighty God (2 Of 5)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Sep 5, 2024
     | 595 views

    This is the second message in this series on The Laws of Almighty God. The one thing we learned in the first sermon in this series is that a law is a proven fact, which works EVERY TIME for EVERY ONE!

    Such is the case with the scientific LAW OF GRAVITY. For the law of gravity says, “What goes up must come down.” It does not matter who throws something up in the air, the law of gravity says the results will be the same every time for everyone. If this was not true, then the law of gravity ...read more

     | 1,203 views

    In Acts 27, we discover that as long as we trust in God’s PRESENCE, God’s PLANS, God’s PEOPLE, and godly PRAYERS—we’ll reach the end of our journey safe and sound, just like Paul.

    There Is One Lord Series

     | 1,860 views

    For Jesus to be our Savior, He must also be our Lord. The Lordship of Jesus in our lives is lived out in view of God's ownership and our discipleship. The Lordship of Jesus is not a burden, but is our blessing, provision, and protection.

    A. As you know, we are in a sermon series about the 7 ones that equal unity. 1. God wants His people to be unified and the 7 ones are the things that unite us. 2. So far in our series we have discussed the one body, the one Spirit, and the one hope. 3. Today, we want to talk about a subject that ...read more

    Sermon # 6 - The Secret Schemes Of The Enemy Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 15, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,799 views

    Satan’s schemes are many and we as God’s children should be aware of them. Also, we need the right people who will guide and counsel us to walk in the right path and avoid the traps that the enemy sets for us.

    We read in Numbers 22:6, Come now, curse this people for me, since they are too mighty for me. Perhaps I shall be able to defeat them and drive them from the land, for I know that he whom you bless is blessed, and he whom you curse is cursed." (ESV) As we continue to meditate on this portion ...read more

    Today it is not unusual to hear some of these questionable television preachers on television claiming they have all kinds of visions and revelations they have received from God.

    I do not doubt that many of these have received these visions and revelations they claim they have received, but knowing the life of some of these, I do doubt that these visions and revelations came from God. Some are quick to point out that many of the New Testament Saints had such visions. ...read more

    Beware Of Ravenous Wolves Series

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Feb 23, 2024

     | 2,446 views

    Things are not always as they seem; and Jesus shares what to look for in identifying false prophets. These are false teachers, ravenous wolves, who seek to feed and save themselves, rather than feed and protect the flock.

    Allow me to begin with an illustration: As Little Red Riding Hood is heading to her grandmother’s house; a wolf comes along and finds out where she lives. He travels ahead, enters the house, and eats the grandmother! When Little Red Riding Hood arrives, she notices her grandmother’s unusual ...read more
