    Rules Of Engagement

     | 10,530 views

    The rules by which we are to conduct ourselves as strangers in this world are provided in the Word of God.

    “Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Resist ...read more

    All Things! Really? All Things? Series

     | 18,905 views

    When Paul writes "for those who love God all things work together for good," he writes to encourage Christians not to be discouraged by trials. "All things" urges us to look beyond the moment to see the glory that is to be revealed.

    “The Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of ...read more

    How Sheep Become Shepherds

    Contributed by Darryl Klassen on Oct 24, 2007
     | 3,362 views

    This is an ordination sermon I wrote when we accepted 2 deacon couples and a minister as leaders in our church.

    HOW SHEEP BECOME SHEPHERDS Murray had a little lamb…shouldn’t that be Mary? No, my brother Murray once had a lamb named Lambert that was white as snow and terribly cute. But then it grew up. And boy was it the stupidest animal ever. I had heard that sheep were dumb but this one was a prime ...read more

    How Do You Hear The Word? Part 1 Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Sep 29, 2008
     | 3,329 views

    When God’s Word is communicated, the state of your mind can greatly affect how your heart receives what God is saying. We have the first part in a discussion from Acts 17 on the ways the Bible is communicated and received.

    Chapter 17 gives us three glimpses at how people process the Word of God. Isn’t contrast great? Medical science uses contrast to find anomalies in the body, and here we use contrast to see the different approaches people take to the Word of God and the gospel of Jesus Christ. We’ll look at the ...read more

     | 3,377 views

    What are you doing with all the Lord has given you?

    I recently heard a radio commercial that caught my attention. It was an advertisement to refinance your home and save $1000’s. The commercial asked, “What could you do with all that savings?” People exclaimed, “We could buy a new car! We could go on a cruise! We could remodel the kitchen.” ...read more

     | 3,950 views

    Consider the reasons why a person prioritizes weekly activities more than the Lord’s day.

    Have you ever been guilty of anticipating Monday more than enjoying worship and service to God on Sunday? What causes a person to anticipate Monday to the exclusion of the Lord’s day? In the book of Amos we find this subject addressed. The Israelite people said "When will the New Moon be past, that ...read more

    A brief vignette about joy as part of a jointly held Christmas service in which four different pastors each spoke of either the Joy, Hope, Peace, or Love of Christmas

    Joy – a Christmas Vignette I. Introduction A couple of weeks ago Pastor Gary asked me if I would be willing to speak on one of the “four themes of Christmas.” I was lucky enough to be the first to be asked that, so I was able to pick my topic. I chose “Joy.” To illustrate this, I want to jump ...read more

    In view of the ’Passion Week’ we all begin at the great account of Jesus entering Jerusalem. This great event would begin a journey that would end at the cross--but the end was just the beginning. Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem proved His triumph

    There are (3) Developments that transpired with Jesus entering Jerusalem. I. The Anticipation for the King Many centuries have passed with nations anticipating a mighty king. Israel had seen its share of kings: Saul, David, and Solomon each reigned 40 years in the United Kingdom. However, after ...read more

     | 7,762 views

    Writing the Romans, Paul speaks of his gratitude for them, giving some surprising reasons for being thankful.

    “First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed in all the world. For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I mention you always in my prayers, asking that somehow by God’s will I may ...read more

    Two Men Enter Heaven

    based on 1 rating
     | 9,485 views

    Death is inevitable for those now living. The sole exception will be should the Lord return. Christ offers life for all who receive Him. Our responsibility is to prepare for the inevitable, trusting Him.

    “The other [thief] rebuked [the first], saying, ‘Do you not fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? And we indeed justly, for we are receiving the due reward of our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong.’ And he said, ‘Jesus, remember me when you come into your ...read more
