    God Will Finish What He’s Started In You!

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 8, 2019
     | 24,412 views

    Phip. 1:6 tells us that no matter how imperfect we feel as Christians, and no matter how unworthy we feel to get to go to heaven, it was Christ’s grace that started us on this journey and it will be God’s grace that completes the job and gets us to our heavenly destination.

    GOD WILL FINISH WHAT HE’S STARTED IN YOU! “Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.” – Phip. 1:6 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: THE END OF THE WORLD 1. Jewish scientists are famous for coming up with new innovations. ...read more

    Childlike Faith

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,629 views

    Everyone keeps saying and we keep hearing over and over the phrase, “this is the new normal!” There is an old saying, “if it walks, talks and acts like a duck...it’s a duck!” What we are witnessing is not the new normal, what we are witnessing is the devil getting all of his ducks in a row!

    As we look around the world in the day and age in which we live, we find ourselves questioning everything we’re told. The truth is we have never had more access to information, but have never been more weary of the information we are being told as truth. The go to response for knowledge and truth ...read more

    The Happy Dance

    Contributed by Charlie Roberts on Aug 16, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,484 views

    If your relationship with Jesus doesn’t put a spring in your step and cause you to do a happy dance once in awhile, maybe you’ve hit a spiritual funk? Maybe it’s time to re-evaluate your realization of how much Jesus loves you and exactly what you should be expecting from your relationship with God?

    Psalms 3:1-8 Lord, how they have increased who trouble me! Many are they who rise up against me. 2 Many are they who say of me, “There is no help for him in God.” Selah 3 But You, O Lord, are a shield [a]for me, My glory and the One who lifts up my head. 4 I cried to the Lord with my ...read more

    The Interrogation Of Faith Series

    Contributed by Greg Powell on Aug 19, 2020
     | 4,499 views

    As Paul continues to defend doctrine, he asks the Galatians 6 rapid-fire questions in 5 verses.

    INTRO: These next two chapters are going to be a little complicated. The 60 verses that make up Galatians 3 and 4 are said to be some of the strongest writing that Paul ever penned. His opponents, the Judaizers, were using every possible means to enslave the believers in Galatia, and Paul was not ...read more

    A picture of the depravity of those unbelievers in the last days

    The Unsaved in the last days Introduction: As I said last week in Sunday School you don’t have to look far to find the moral rot that is infesting our culture today. It’s so bad that felons feel like saints, they look around and see society is making them feel normal every day. But what I want ...read more

    Creation Series

    Contributed by Jeffery Anselmi on Jan 5, 2024
     | 2,380 views

    Genesis 1:1 is simple, short, yet profound. (I will lean on Core 52 resources during this series; I also want to thank Dan Raymond, who is a friend of mine, for some of his resource help. James E Smith's book on the Pentateuch was helpful in this message)

    INTRODUCTION • Today, we begin our Core 52 journey together. • Before we dove in, here are some housekeeping items to cover. • Each Sunday (except on Faith Promise and for a couple of weeks in December), Jerry or I will cover a chapter in the Core 52 book. • We will follow the sequence in the book: ...read more

    Christ seeks the lost, the outcast, and the weak, leaving the herd for the sake of the one.

    INTRODUCTION • Do you feel comfortable as you look around you today in the sanctuary? • Many of you know many of the folks here, and that is comfortable for many. • Do you think we have enough people here today? • What do you see when you look at the world around you and the people around you each ...read more

    What do you want healed? If you stand up and walk, Jesus will guide you into the healing that is already planned and waiting for you.

    People have been looking for quick fixes for what ails them since the beginning of time. Every time someone announces a new discovery, hundreds and thousands of people go chasing after the magic potion, the pot of gold, the secret formula that will make all their dreams come true.

    Acts Of The Apostles (8 Of 39)

     | 1,566 views

    One thing every Pastor has remind his congregation of, is, WHEN THE LORD MOVES IN THE CHURCH, WE CAN REST ASSURED THE DEVIL WILL MOVE IN ALSO.

    As we come to the fifth chapter of the Book of Acts, God had moved by the power of the Holy Spirit in a great way. But when we get to chapter five, we see where the devil makes his move, through a couple in the church called Ananias and Saphirra. WHAT KIND OF CHURCH MEMBERS WERE THEY? They ...read more

    Justification By Faith: Two Examples Series

    Contributed by James Jackson on Mar 27, 2022
     | 3,298 views

    Up to this point in Romans, Paul has been pretty academic and intellectual. But now, he puts skin on the truth that justification is by faith alone.

    One of my favorite movies is Steven Spielberg’s Catch Me If You Can.

    The Gift Of The Mediator Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Nov 27, 2021
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,039 views

    Scripture says that Jesus is our "mediator." What is a mediator and what did Jesus do to fill that need in our lives?

    OPEN: Humorist Dave Barry once wrote about gifts that were given to Jesus by the Wise Men. He suggested that if you carefully analyzed what the Bible tells us, you’d find there was an overlooked theological fact in the story. There is no mention of wrapping paper. Now why would the wisemen not use ...read more

    Watch How You Build Series

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on May 4, 2022
     | 4,567 views

    We are all builders in Christ, but there is only one foundation. Watch how you build upon it and be rewarded for what remains on the day we face God.

    Let us RECAP THE CONTEXT. • Paul has been addressing the divisions in the Corinth church, honestly and directly. • The believers were taking sides, glorifying certain leaders and human wisdom. • Paul said it clearly in 3:1 “But I, brothers, could not address you as spiritual people, but as people ...read more

    Contributed by Hylton Davidson on Oct 12, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 421 views

    500 years ago, 5 truths sparked a gospel revolution. The Five Solas—Scripture Alone, Grace Alone, Faith Alone, Christ Alone, to the Glory of God Alone—still anchor our faith today. Join me as we rediscover the foundations that changed the world.

    Introduction: I believe it essential to return to the heart of the gospel—the truths that ignited the Reformation nearly 500 years ago. The Reformers, guided by the Holy Spirit, called the church back to the Bible, and in doing so, they articulated five foundational principles that we call the ...read more
