    Peter Emerges At Pentecost

    Contributed by Jamie Bogaard on Jun 5, 2017
     | 6,204 views

    Peter, empowered by the Holy Spirit, steps up and delivers and epic message. Using scripture to show what was happening the people were cut to the heart and over 3000 were added. Are we adding to the church's numbers today??

    Peter Emerges Acts 2:14-41 June 4, 2017 – Pentecost Today we celebrate Pentecost and I thought it would be good to pay a little visit to our friend, Peter. Earlier this year we spent some time looking at Peter and his time of ministry didn’t end with Jesus ascension. In many ways that is when ...read more

    The Suffering In His Ministry Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jul 10, 2018
     | 7,556 views

    God had entrusted to Paul and his fellow evangelists this treasure of great worth—the gospel of Christ—but why would He do this? Because He delights in empowering the weak in order to confound the strong.

     | 545 views

    Spiritual growth is a lifelong journey of transformation empowered by God’s grace, sustained through our daily surrender to the Holy Spirit, nurtured in Christ-centered community, and aimed at becoming more like Jesus for the glory of God.

    Partners in Growth: God's Work and Our Walk 1 Corinthians 3:5-9 Last week, we began an exciting new sermon series entitled “Rooted.” Picture the scene: Jesus is seated in a boat, speaking to a large crowd gathered along the shore—many of them fishermen. To capture their hearts and minds, He ...read more

    Running Your Race

    Contributed by Derek Geldart on Oct 25, 2025

    “Running Your Race” calls believers to reject comparison and discouragement, embrace their God-given lane with faithfulness and joy, and keep their eyes fixed on Jesus—the One who empowers, sustains, and rewards every step of the journey.

    Running Your Race I remember the first time I attended a large Christian conference. Though we all shared a love for the Lord and His Word, this “unknown” attendee quietly wondered if anyone could see past the mask of confidence—past the polished smiles and ministry talk—to the ...read more

    Not By Might But By My Spirit

    This sermon proclaims that God’s work in rebuilding His temple—and in strengthening His people today—is never accomplished by human effort but solely by the empowering, obstacle-flattening, hope-renewing work of the Holy Spirit.

    Not by Might but by My Spirit Zechariah 4:1-9 Let’s begin with the remarkable story of how God’s people — weary from exile yet renewed by hope — rebuilt the house of the Lord. Because of their idolatry, moral corruption, and rejection of God’s prophets, the nation of Judah fell to ...read more

     | 4,828 views

    In the 23rd Psalm we see David reflecting upon his life from the Green Pastures of his youth to the valley of the shadow of death(which was not far off). He notes one common theme namely that the Lord was his shepherd, today can we say the same thing?

    Is The Lord My Shepherd? Psalm 23 ORIENTATION: • Have you ever taken a moment to reflect upon your life? • To simply stop what you are doing, be quite and reflect? • For some of us maybe this is too difficult (the hurts to great, and pain to unbearable) for others impossible (especially if ...read more

    “We already know that we’re not supposed to take drugs, have sex, or drop out of school. Sometimes adults think we’re just a bunch of goofballs, only interested in pizza and concerts. But kids in our youth group really do want to learn all about Chris

    The September morning air felt cold as I walked from my car toward the flagpole.

    My first combat was only a few days after I arrived in Vietnam. The invincibility of my youth left me swiftly. I wrote each letter home with care, for I suddenly knew that each letter might be the last words. Luke records some of Christ last words.

    When we consider that God is watching us, we may ask, as Job did, whether He is watching us to hurt us, to humiliate us, or to rescue us. Actually He is watching us in love to empower us.

    “I can’t let you out of my sight for one minute.” How many parents here have ever said that? “I can’t let you out of my sight for one minute.” How many have said it at least a thousand times?

    Paul’s prayer in Ephesians 3 should be the first thing we pray for each other and ourselves - that the Holy Spirit would strengthen and empower us to understand the vast extent of the love of Christ for us, and to know that love for ourselves.

    ASPIRATIONS One of the new phrases dotting the political landscape of late has been the one "aspirational voters".
