     | 206 views

    True greatness is found in serving others with everyday acts of kindness, recognizing and loving Jesus in the overlooked and ordinary people around us.

    Some of the most breathtaking moments with Jesus arrive in ordinary clothes. A paper cup of water handed to a weary worker. A brown-bag sandwich shared on a bench. A text sent at midnight that says, “I’m here.” He has a way of walking into our Mondays and Market Streets, our waiting rooms and ...read more

    This sermon encourages steadfast hope in God’s promises, trusting Him through unseen and uncertain times, and patiently waiting for His faithful fulfillment.

    Friends, take a deep breath. If your week has felt like a thousand tiny cuts—emails unanswered, hopes on hold, prayers that feel like whispers in a windstorm—you are not alone. Hope can feel thin on Thursday afternoons and threadbare by Saturday night. Yet right here, in the everyday ache and the ...read more

    Not neccesarily just an Easter message. Even with all of the wondrous signs that the close followers of Jesus had observed, they were still without understanding of what Jesus had come to do. We suffer much the same.

    Simplicity is a spiritual discipline that is, too often, left unpracticed in our consumeristic western culture.

    This morning we begin a four-week journey dealing with the stewardship of life. Over the next four weeks we’ll take a look at the futility that comes from longing for more in a culture of enough, then we’ll take a look at the power of debt to cause stress in our lives. In week three, we discover ...read more

    Paul did not quote Scripture to the Athenians in his sermon. But his sermon was Scriptural

    Can You Preach Christ Without the Scripture? Acts 17:14-34 Introduction It had been a most strenuous journey for Paul.

    James tells us that faith without works is dead. He is not saying Paul is wrong. Paul spoke about becoming a believer and follower of Christ, James is talking about behaving as a believer and follower of Christ. Out loud faith is not merely, words, thi

    Intro: What does your faith say? That is the question you should ask yourself this morning as you listen to this message. What does your lifestyle say about the God you say you serve?

    Dough And Bucks

    Contributed by Terry Melton on Aug 4, 2019
     | 3,430 views

    Looking at “dough” and “bucks.” I am not referring to the kind of “deer” that God created, but rather the "dough" and "bucks" that man created, and hold too "dear" to our hearts, for the love of money is the root to all kinds of evil.

    When my daughter was little, we were driving along a country road, and she spotted a deer. She asked, “Does the deer have any doe?” I said, “Ya. Two bucks.” Today, we will have a look at “dough” and “bucks.” I am not referring to the kind of “deer” that God created, but rather when we hold the ...read more

    The Book of Ecclesiastes is one book in the Old Testament that is seldom preached from.

    But it is a book in the Bible that tells us how we can find the answer to the question, “WHAT’S IT ALL ABOUT?” Very few ever come up with the right answer.
