Take A Stand For Jesus Series

Contributed by Darryl Klassen on Nov 4, 2008

In a world that is hostile to the message of Jesus, do we dare to stand for him whatever the cost?

TAKE A STAND FOR JESUS Taking a stand on any issue requires conviction. You have to believe that what you are standing firm on is somehow the most righteous position you can think of. Without this conviction you will be swayed by persuasive argument to give up your position, or at least to see ...read more

Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 16, 2009

Juy 31, 1988. When we don’t have enough, materially, it’s easy to be spiritual, and we respond with gratitude. When we have enough, materially, it’s still easy to be spiritual, and we respond with responsibility.

You may not know it, but we may be in the vicinity of a piece of history. We may be in the neighborhood that gave rise to a revolution in the restaurant business.

To Be Missional Is To Be On Mission By ‘bearing One's Cross'

Contributed by Jim Kane on May 18, 2009

Third and final sermon in the second part of an initial 2009 series, ‘2 Things 2 B in 09’

Language is an interesting thing. It changes with new words added each year to our lexicon and old ones falling out of favor. It also means that the meanings of words change and some are used as either as a verb or a noun. (Slide 1) For example, we when say ‘ADdress’ we mean a specific location ...read more

Keeping Up Appearances Series

Contributed by Peter Loughman on Mar 9, 2010

Do we equate the things we love about our Churches with the authority of Scripture? You bet we do.

What is the most authoritative part of the Bible? Is the New Testament the most authoritative part of the Bible? The New Testament is the New Covenant that Jesus Christ gave to us, that sure is a powerful thing. Could the Gospels be the most authoritative part of the Bible, because they are about ...read more

Share how we can live our lives best as possible for Jesus Christ and stop being so concerned about our appearances

People look at ...read more

Letters To The 7 Churches 5 - Laodicea Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Oct 22, 2007

we need to resist the pressures of our culture to conform unthinkingly to the status quo and to compromise on the major principles of our faith. We need to recover the radical edge of Jesus’ teaching, that turns the values of the world upside down.

It’s interesting how we can go from the two letters we saw last week where one church thought they were alive and were actually dead and another thought they were as good as dead but actually had plenty of life in them, to the final letter of the seven where the church is neither one thing nor the ...read more

Blocking And Tackling Series

Contributed by Steven Spillman on May 2, 2008

“The secret of success is in the blocking and tackling. Focus on the blocking and tackling and everything else will come along.”

It was something I should have learned in High School football. After all, I played tackle; it would have made my experience more meaningful if I knew it then. But I didn’t. It was a lot of years after high school; when I was in business and a mentor shared it with me. “The secret of success is in ...read more

This sermon deals with how to experence God's presence in our lives.

Being at the right place at the right time! 5/22/11 Leviticus 16 We all have probably used the excuse about “Being at the wrong place at the wrong time”. I didn’t mean to do it; I was just at the wrong place at the wrong time! If you have teens you know what I am talking about. ...read more

Repentance And Refreshing Series

Contributed by Steven Simala Grant on Oct 28, 2009

One of the things that traps us in our places of emotional and spiritual and relational lameness is that we get to a point where we cannot really imagine life differently.

Intro: Last Sunday we began our look at the second section of the book of Acts.

Interpreting Life's Events Series
