Child Of God, Family Of God Series

Contributed by Robert Higgins on Apr 15, 2008

Trials Expected & Conquered

Contributed by John Gaston on May 28, 2013

The worst harm that can come to us, comes when we don't expect it. Believers should never be blindsided by trials. We are going to look at why trials should be expected, that they will not destroy believers, and the secret to conquering trials.

Safe? Who Said Anything About Safe? Series

Contributed by Fr Mund Cargill Thompson on Dec 24, 2012

Do you come regularly to church .... regularly once a year at Christmas? Perhaps you are more committed to God than you yourself think, and perhaps God has things in store for you that you don’t yet realise.

The Fire And The Calf

Contributed by Rick Pendleton on Nov 7, 2012

God told Joshua the reason He would not answer their prayers or protect Israel was because "there is sin in the camp". I believe that is true for the church and Christians today. If you're afraid to preach sin... don't look at this one.

Sin in the Camp Joshua 7 Today I want to talk to you about something very serious… sin in the camp. I believe this is one of the biggest problems in the world today... sin in the camp.... Sin in God’s people I think most Christians do not take this very seriously because they say to ...read more

Do You Have Salt?

Contributed by John Gaston on May 27, 2014

The world poses a threat; anti-Christian elements don't understand us; the media often stereotypes us as ignorant or hypocritical. Our response? To withdrawal into our Christian subculture. Jesus said that's NOT the way. We're to be Salt!

Gratitude Series

Jesus said in Matthew 24:12 He said that as the end draws near because lawlessness is increased the love of many will grow cold. It is very obvious we live in a wrecked world. Wrecked ...read more

Living With The Enemy Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jun 8, 2015

We compromise because we believe in alternatives and we do not believe in the grave consequences of our actions. Don't fall for the devil's lies. Hold fast to what God says. God's commands are inherently good and not impossible to be obeyed.

Sin Is A Disgrace To Any People

Contributed by Melvin Newland on Jul 12, 2015

Now it would seem ridiculous to ignore sin & Satan completely, so they don’t. But what God calls sin in the Bible isn’t necessarily what they consider to be sin. And the idea of a real Satan is hard for some to accept.
