    When We Don’t Have Enough Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Nov 10, 2020
     | 4,779 views

    The miracle of the feeding of the 5,000 (really, probably the 20,000) is a story about asking God to move in bigger ways that we have the resources to move ourselves.

    MORE THAN A MEAL: Jesus was testing His disciples. - John 6:6. - John tells that Jesus is doing this to test the disciples. Obviously, throughout His three years of ministry He was pushing them to grow and learn the lessons of the Kingdom. - Now, He asks them to sort out this difficult ...read more

    The devil may delay what God has declared—but he cannot deny it.

    Text: Daniel 10:1–21 (Key Verses: 12–13) Here we have a glimpse into an Unseen War Daniel 10 pulls back the curtain on a reality many believers overlook: the spiritual realm is real, active, and contested. It reveals a world where angels and demons battle over nations, destinies, and divine ...read more

    The Divine Audit: Recalculating The Worth Of Your Life

    Contributed by Paul Dayao on Aug 20, 2025
     | 304 views

    This sermon on Philippians 3:7-8 explores why the Apostle Paul counted his most impressive achievements as worthless garbage, revealing the radical re-evaluation of life that occurs when we discover the surpassing worth of knowing Jesus Christ.

    Title: The Divine Audit: Recalculating the Worth of Your Life Text: Philippians 3:7-8 (KJV) At certain times in our lives, it’s wise to take stock. We do a financial audit to check our assets against our liabilities. We do a performance review at work to measure our accomplishments. We look in the ...read more

    John made the statement that he wasn’t worthy even to unloose the latchet of Jesus’ sandals

    " Take off thy shoes" Ruth 4:1-8 Many times in the last few years I’ve questioned in my heart the mercy Christ has given me by my salvation and the great honor bestowed on such an undeserving man as me to preach the gospel. My heart sometimes almost breaks when I realize that the Creator of ...read more

     | 9,780 views

    What is affliction and how are we as followers of Jesus supposed to react to those around us who are afflicted?

    Today let’s talk about Affliction: 1) a state of pain, distress, grief or misery: 2) a cause of mental or bodily pain, as sickness, loss, calamity, or persecution. You know from your own life experiences what affliction is. If you have never experienced affliction you are a very rare ...read more

    Authentic Christianity--Honesty--truth

    The author of these 3 little epistles along with, the gospel of John, and the book of the REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST, is none other than the apostle John. (Don't confuse him with John the Baptist, this is John the beloved). All of John's writings have specific purposes. In the gospel of John he ...read more

     | 9,872 views

    Easter Sunday Morning Sermon: "He Is Risen" is taken from the very first Easter Sunday Morning Message given, and it was by the angels. This sermon looks at what it means to us, that is, a new relationship, an abundant life, and Heaven when this life is over.

    What’s The Price?

    Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 11, 2019
     | 5,138 views

    The doctrine of the blood of Jesus exposes the terrible seriousness of sin, the extremes to which God was willing to go because He loved us, and that only Christianity has a Savior who saves and delivers from sin and the sin nature.

    WHAT’S THE PRICE? 1 Pet. 1:18-20 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: LETTERS TO THE PASTOR 1. Dear Pastor, I would like to go to heaven someday because I know my brother won't be there. Stephen.

    Are you a true witness for Jesus? How can you tell? What does it take to be the kind of witness God has called you to be? We’ll answer those questions as we look today at the example of John the Baptist.

    The John that is in our passage this morning is not the same John that wrote this Gospel. The John that wrote this Gospel is the brother of James. Jesus called him a son of thunder. He was the one whom Jesus loved. But that’s not the John in our passage. The John in our passage is the one we ...read more

    The Week That Changed The World: The Day Jesus Saw The Downfall Of Apostate Religion Series

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 15, 2021
     | 2,132 views

    Jesus finished His final day of public ministry. He taught the crowds in the Temple, confronted difficult questions, and then left for good. The Temple and its religious system was corrupt, useless, and irredeemable, and would be judged by God.

    Mark 12:28-44 gives us details about the final day of Jesus' public ministry and HIs departure from the Temple. He will go to the Mount of Olives and present to His astonished disciples the reality of what is to come in the future, and it does not involve a new Israel free from Rome, nor the ...read more

    Nicodemus’ encounter with Jesus gives us our hope of being a part of the Kingdom of God. We must be Born Again. What does that mean?

    "Filled!"

    Contributed by Darryl Klassen on Aug 24, 2005
    based on 5 ratings
     | 4,292 views

    This sermon concludes part one of a series on who we are in Christ based on Ephesians 1-3. It focuses on the magnitude of God’s love for us and Paul’s prayer that we be filled to overflowing with the knowledge of this love.

    “FILLED” “Empty” or “Full”? Which would describe you this morning? Perhaps that’s not fair. You may feel half-full and are quite fine with that. I thought my tank was better than half full this week until I realized it was nearly empty. My Dad instilled in me a quirky ...read more

    Have you ever wondered if Christ's death had an impact on Barabbas? He knew that Jesus had taken his place on the cross.

    And so this is how it would end, it wasn’t what he expected at all. On Friday he had watched as they crucified the carpenter and he walked free. And that is how it should have ended, a happy ending for him, a not so happy ending for Jesus of Nazareth, the carpenter who almost became ...read more

    A contrast, between a child who received Jesus just the way He offers and a wealthy adult who wanted to come to Jesus on his own terms.

    “How Does One Get To Heaven?” Luke 18:15-27 So how does one get right with God? How does one get to Heaven? Previously in Luke chapter eighteen, Jesus has just told the Parable of the ...read more
