    What Christmas Is All About--From An Authority Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Dec 26, 2018
     | 4,278 views

    Though not one of the traditional Christmas stories we refer to when we consider Christmas, the prologue of John's Gospel perhaps offers the most complete explanation found anywhere about what Christmas is really about--the God-man came to earth to rescue us from this present darkness.

    Christmas: What It's All About—From an Authority John 1:1-14 Christmas Eve, 2018 I know most of you this evening came expecting to hear another repetition of the Christmas story, focusing on the angels visit to Joseph or Mary, the virgin birth in Bethlehem, or even the Magi's visit. And ...read more

    Building Blocks In God's Holy House

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Jan 23, 2022
     | 2,485 views

    We are “living stones,” called to be linked with one another in Christ, tightly integrated like stones in a wall. This requires us to strengthen our connections with each other, in fellowship, mutual support, and prayer.

    God has given us a real blessing in this church building. In many ways, it’s a hub for congregational life. It serves as a centre of our worship, our learning and study, and it’s a place for our communion together. It’s a good gift of God to us. Yet how does the Bible speak about our places of ...read more

     | 3,557 views

    Don’t be so full of yourself that you make a fool of yourself. Instead, depend on the Lord’s wisdom, depend on the Lord’s power, and obey Him.

    A young pastor was asked by a funeral director to conduct a graveside service for a homeless man who had died while traveling through the area. He had no family or friends, and the funeral was to be held way out in the middle of nowhere in a brand-new cemetery. In fact, the homeless man would be ...read more

    God Uses Who You Are

     | 5,129 views

    We need to get rid of the ill-fitting fashion, or armor, that we’ve tried to squeeze into that’s strangling the life out of us. We need to be who we are in Christ, and utilize our own special equipping. This is what David decided was best.

    Have you ever felt as though you don’t quite know where God wants to use you, and you often feel awkward where you’re presently serving? Perhaps it’s because you’ve been pushed into an area of service that doesn’t suit how the Lord has made you and equipped you, and who you really are inside. ...read more

    Living In The Tree Of Life (Part 1)

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,606 views

    Many believers are living in fear, guilt, shame, and condemnation. They are partaking of death instead of life; unknowingly eating from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, instead of eating from the tree of life.

    This morning I want to talk about life, not the facts of life or difficulties of life, but how to have true life in the Lord. In our United States Declaration of Independence we encounter the phrase, “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness,” which is one of the most well known statements in ...read more

    Gods Own Cause

     | 5,954 views

    When we feel overwhelmed by trouble and despair, it is easy to forget what we know about God.

    God's Own Cause Arise, O God, plead thine own cause: remember how the foolish man reproacheth thee daily. Psa 74:22. Prayer is the atmosphere that every Believer breathes; it is something that we cannot do without, if we are going to retain our spiritual life, it’s just like the body which ...read more

    Do Not Give Place To The Devil Through Anger

    Contributed by Glynda Lomax on Feb 1, 2022
     | 2,348 views

    The wages of sin is always death. Whenever you sin, look at your life and realize that death is coming to something in it. Anger sins often bring death to relationships. They can bring death to trust, to jobs, to friendships, you name it.

    So today I want to talk to you about anger, specifically the kind of anger that causes outbursts, especially if those outbursts are way out of proportion to the situation at hand. The reason we are talking about this NOW is a lot of folks have been struggling with this and I think it could be an ...read more

     | 2,807 views

    In this message we examine what Jesus said about how we should treat our enemies. This follows what we covered last week where Jesus talked about how we should be willing to turn the other cheek. To be a part of His kingdom, we must learn to love our enemies.

    Living in the Kingdom 12 Scripture: Matthew 5:43-48; 7:12; Leviticus 19:18; James 4:17 In my message last week I shared with you what Jesus said about turning the other cheek and going the extra mile without being asked.

    We are sometimes asked how to know when we have been filled with the Holy Spirit. These are my thoughts.

    Has anyone here ever grown fruit trees? Maybe an apple tree or a cherry tree. I am not a farmer or a gardener, but in 1990 we moved into a rented house we were told had five different fruit trees in the backyard.  When I heard that I thought, “wow that’ll be cool.” The day we arrived, one of ...read more

    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on May 1, 2022
     | 1,971 views

    In Part 16, we examine what Jesus said about storing up riches in heaven. The term "riches" mean difference things to different people, but what is important is that we value nothing here on earth as more important than God and His Son, Jesus Christ.

    Living in the Kingdom 16 Scripture: Matthew 6:19-24; Proverbs 4:23; Mark 7:20-23 This is a continuation of my series, “Living in the Kingdom.” This morning we will examine what Jesus says about riches in His Sermon on the Mount. We will look at verses nineteen through twenty-four which says, ...read more

    It was essential for Peter to admit (And us), when prejudice is in operation. Our prejudices and biases always collide with God's grace. God has no favorites; we are all equal in his sight. He welcomes whosoever!
