    O Come, O Come, Emmanuel Series

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Dec 3, 2014
     | 7,781 views

    Christmas is not about us, it is about Emmanuel, God with us. What sorts of preparations are you making this year? Are you preparing like the rest of the world, or are you preparing to welcome Christ?

    I hope you all had a wonderful and joy-filled Thanksgiving holiday. I know I certainly enjoyed time with my family. We did all the usual Thanksgiving stuff. We ate too much food, watched some football, played some games, and then ate too many leftovers. And then, the next day, we got up, ate too ...read more

    How To Dress A Sermon Series

    Contributed by Johnny Creasong on Sep 1, 2020
     | 2,584 views

    In order to be presentable, a sermon must be properly dressed!

    HOW TO DRESS A SERMON Preaching involves all the components of dressing appropriately for the occasion. You would not go swimming in a three-piece suit and tie any more than you would enter the pulpit in only your underwear! How your dress your sermon will determine your ability to communicate ...read more

    Equipping The Called Series

    Contributed by Captain Emily Vincent on Jul 11, 2023
     | 2,218 views

    Have you ever been asked to do something that you just did not feel prepared to do at all? God asks BIG things of us, and we feel like we could never measure up...BUT, He will ALWAYS equip us for the things He asks of us, even if we don't think we are ready for it yet!

    As we continue to talk about our Mis-Quoted series…I wanted to focus a little bit on the different things God called His people to do in the Scriptures…WE are going to talk about a guy who, in all honesty, was not equipped to do what God was asking Him to do…but we as His people are called to ...read more

    "Expect The Unexpected This Christmas”

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Jan 2, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,001 views

    As some of said, “If we expect to hear the Christmas gospel without the Advent call to repentance, we will find ourselves surprised by John and unprepared for Jesus.” So, we ask the Holy Spirit to open our hearts to the message and ministry of both John and Jesus.

    “It wasn’t what I expected.” Whether you are young or old, a man or woman, a girl or a boy, you have probably experienced something that caused you to have that reaction. Perhaps it was connected to some food that you tried. You were feeling a little adventurous and you ordered something at a ...read more

    Am I Using Faulty Tools?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 30, 2023
     | 943 views

    The simple things or actions during our Christian walk of faith are just as important as with the things that seem major.

    2 Kings 6:1-7 Elisha has now succeeded Elijah as a prophet to the Northern Kingdom (2 Kings 2:1-18). He has by now already prophesied and God has performed a few miracles through him. But now we will see something peculiar, he makes an axe head float. This situation shows how God cares for His ...read more

    We are all making exciting plans for Christmas. But in this sermon I want to talk to you about God’s plan for the first Christmas.

    One thing that gets us upset, is when we have things all planned out and someone comes along and ruins our plans. For example, suppose you had plans for Saturday. You were going to take the family to the lake, and have a nice family picnic. You have been planning this picnic for weeks and you had ...read more

    Salty Or Bland

    What is salt used for and what is it good for?

    Salt Seasons: To treat or to prepare for use, to give more flavor. Spiritual saltiness - Do not blend in. You add salt to enhance the flavor of food. We are the salt that God uses to lead hungry people to food. But if we are not 'salty' enough we are of no-good use. We have become ...read more

    When in Drought, don’t Doubt.

    In the previous chapter, we learn that Ahab is now the king of Israel. Unfortunately, he was worse than all the other kings before him. Each king prior to Ahab became worse than the one before. Ahab married Jezebel who led him into worshiping Baal. People that worshiped Baal thought that Baal made ...read more

    The supper is ready, and the invitations have been sent. But what is an invitation?

    The supper is ready, and the invitations have been sent. But what is an invitation? An invitation is to request someone to be present, a summons to participate, or an attempt to get someone to join you at a specific event. The man with Jesus saw the brilliance of God’s Kingdom, yet he did not yet ...read more

    "the Days Of Noah"

    Contributed by Kyle Campbell on Oct 24, 2022

     | 2,024 views

    The one great prophecy of the New Testament is the second coming of Christ in judgment. Matthew 24 is one of the lengthiest passages in the New Testament on the subject of the Lord’s coming. Matthew 24:36-39 uses Noah and his family as an illustration of that event.

    Introduction. Alan Wilson commented that unlike other countries that have a pay-as-you use toll system on major roads, Switzerland expects drivers using its autoroute system to pay an annual fee of 40 Swiss francs. When you pay, you get a windshield sticker you display for the rest of the ...read more

    Ezra gave thanks to God for everything He had done for him and through him.

    Ezra was one of three key leaders during the return of the Jewish nation from Babylonian captivity. Zerubbabel was the first to encourage rebuilding of the Temple. Nehemiah was involved with rebuilding of the walls. Ezra was key to restoring the people to worship God. Chapters 1-6 describe the ...read more

    Comforting God’s People

    Today’s text echoes what we see throughout scripture about how the Lord disciplines His children. God disciplines us because He loves us.

    COMFORTING GOD’S PEOPLE (December 6, 2020) Text: Isaiah 40: 1 - 11 Isaiah 40:1 -11: Comfort, O comfort my people, says your God. 2 Speak tenderly to Jerusalem, and cry to her that she has served her term, that her penalty is paid, that she has received from the Lord’s hand ...read more

    Make Sure You Are On The Lord's Side

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Aug 12, 2021
     | 2,569 views

    Following Jesus is more than getting him on our side to cheer for our "team." It is making sure our "team" is on his side. That takes preparation.

    Preparations: I read that in April, 1988 the evening news reported on a photographer who was also a skydiver. He had jumped from a plane along with several other skydivers and filmed the group as they individually dove out of the plane and opened their parachutes. As the video was being shown of ...read more

    Remember Lot's Wife

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Mar 19, 2021
     | 2,966 views

    These scriptures refer to the second coming of Jesus Christ. Sooner than most of us believe, Christ will return to catch his bride away. A warning is found here to those who are not prepared to stand before the judgment seat of God.

    If we are to have a part in God's Kingdom, if we expect to be saved from the judgment of God, we must be prepared. To expect heaven to be our home one day, doesn't come by chance. Heaven is a prepared place for a prepared people. John 14. There will be no time for preparation at the end of ...read more

    God has a plan that turns bad stuff into good stuff. This trial can become a blessing. Let us follow some leaders that journey seemed twisted but God brought the victory.
