    Persistent Petitionary Prayer

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 15, 2016
    based on 5 ratings
     | 4,365 views

    Jesus emphasises the importance, validity and efficacy of persistent petitionary prayer. The basis of our prayer is our relationship with God.

    PERSISTENT PETITIONARY PRAYER. Luke 11:1-13. It all began with Jesus at prayer, and with the disciples’ desire to learn from Jesus how to pray (Luke 11:1). Surprisingly, we are encouraged to pray in much the same terms as Jesus Himself. Our address towards God is to be one of familial ...read more

    Resurrection Sunday 2020 - The Resurrection ... A Wall Or A Gate

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Apr 17, 2020

     | 2,736 views

    The resurrection of Jesus from the dead is either fact or fiction. If it is fiction we are all lost in our sin. If it is fact then our eternal destiny pivots on whether we believe it or not.

    The Resurrection – A Wall or A Gate Please open your Bibles to Matthew 28:1-7 which Pastor Karenlee will be reading and teaching from in a few minutes. We hope many of you were able to join us for our Good Friday service. It was good to remember all that happened between the Passover Meal, which ...read more

    Why Hope? Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 4, 2021
     | 2,406 views

    Peter calls on the Christians in his day to have hope much like Martin Luther King Jr. did in his day. Peter says, “I command you to be hopeful though you are suffering greatly.”

    Sometimes our hope is invisible. The last words of dying people have always fascinated me. They are so revealing of a person's heart and soul. John Wilkes Booth who assassinated President Lincoln said only two words at his death: “Useless. Useless.” These are words of hopelessness. Fox News ...read more

    The Power Of Forgivness Series

     | 5,359 views

    If you are a genuine Christian, you will be both willing and able to forgive others. According to Jesus, when you say, “I cannot or will not forgive,” you’re essentially saying, “I am thinking about going to hell.”

    We are in the last installment of a sermon series entitled Digging Deeper. Our goal is to answer this question: WHAT makes Christianity more “sticky” in some? What is the PROOF that determines if a person truly follows Christ? Or, What makes a Christian a Christian? We lose a lot of items in ...read more

    Where did Halloween come from? What are Christians to do with it? Is it innocent fun? Does it take us down a dangerous path?

    Communion Confusion

     | 5,396 views

    Is communion a sacrament, ordinance or memorial? Are bread and wine mere symbols or is there something deeper?

    Is Communion a sacrament, an ordinance, or a memorial? Are bread and wine mere symbols or is there something deeper? Let’s look at what Jesus said in Luke 22:14-27. Passover Luke 22:14 “When the hour had come, He reclined at the table, and the apostles with Him.” The appointed hour that the ...read more

    God Wants You To Know!

     | 5,250 views

    While many poeple may feel uncertain of what will happen to them when their life comes to an end, God wants us to know exactly what to expect. These words from 1 Thessalonians bring confidence and comfort to the Christian in the face of death.

    “I don’t know.” Those can be some of the most difficult words for us to say. To say, “I don’t know” is to admit that we don’t have all the answers. And we like to have answers because it makes us feel more in control, more secure, more prepared. That’s probably one of the reasons that doctors ...read more

    Beginning well is important in the Christian Life; ending well is critical. We witness both as we see what the Apostle Paul has written near the end of his days on this earth.

    2 TIMOTHY 4:1-8 HENCEFORTH “I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom: preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching.

    From Our Mouths To God's Ears Series

     | 3,611 views

    In the midst of the spiritual wilderness that we find ourselves in today, our serenity … our comfort … our confidence comes from the fact that God provides us with our daily bread.

    After Jesus was baptized, the Gospel writers say that Jesus was led by the Holy Spirit into the wilderness where He was tempted by the devil for 40 days (Matthew 4:1-11; Mark 1:12-13; Luke 4:1-13). During that time, Jesus ate nothing. At this point, the devil attempts to use Jesus’ hunger to ...read more
