    What Did Jesus Leave For Us?

    Contributed by James May on Jun 11, 2006

     | 20,294 views

    When the Son of Man ascended to Heaven he didn’t leave us empty-handed. He left us with all we need to be victorious in every fact of life.

    WHAT DID JESUS LEAVE FOR US? By Pastor Jim May I was somewhat amused this week with so many people who were concerned about the passing of the date 6/6/06. It never ceases to amaze me that people, who are supposed to know and understand the Word of God, are so superstitious, and so afraid, of ...read more

    The empty tomb means that we are freed from the power of sin over our lives and we can live the kind of lives God originally intended right now in the present.

    A Life of Discipline: Lent week 3 March 7, 2010 Intro: The season of Lent can sometimes feel like the opposite of the season of Advent, don’t you think? Advent, our preparation for Christmas, seems to be full of excitement and anticipation and joy and merriness, as we prepare to gather ...read more

    Psalm 32 - Acknowledging Our Sin Is To Be Our Regular Practice

    Contributed by Neil Olcott on Jul 29, 2023
     | 1,691 views

    Have you ever felt that your relationship with God has been, not just stagnant, but wooden and hollow, with no life, no relationship, no joy, no vibrancy or flourishing? Like it is forced and faked and empty?

    This morning we are looking at Psalm 32 and we find that it is written by King David. It’s a psalm paired with Psalm 51. They’re bound together. “Have mercy on me, O God, according to Your steadfast love.” And they’re bound together because the context of the psalm is 2 Samuel chapters 11 and 12. ...read more

    The empty tomb is not a symbol of loss—it is a declaration of victory. Jesus is not in the grave; He is alive forevermore! Because He lives, we live. Because He rose, we rise.

    HE IS RISEN INDEED! By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Luke 24:6 Supporting Texts: 1 Corinthians 15:14-20, Romans 4:25, Acts 2:24, Revelation 1:18, Matthew 28:6 INTRODUCTION: The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the cornerstone of the Christian faith.

     | 1,778 views

    This message looks at two "demon-possessed" men, discusses the translation "demonized," and provides a spiritual application on how to recognize the devil's activity, overcome Satan's attacks, and find deliverance.

    I want to get us started with some observations and an illustration by Neil T. Anderson, the president of Freedom in Christ Ministries. He says, “Psychologists and psychiatrists routinely see patients who are hearing voices: chemical imbalance is the standard diagnosis . . . But how can a chemical ...read more

    Let us look beyond the pleasantry of Christmas day this morning. Christmas will soon be over; and, for many they will go back to hearts filled with bitterness, hatred and burden. You see the hearts of humanity may appear to be EMPTY from post-Christmas

    Post-Christmas Battle for Your Heart David Tack – December 22, 2011 INTRO: Christmas is a wonderful time of year. It promotes joy and goodwill to humanity and most people purposely spread the spirit of peace, love and toleration! Christmas day arrives and it is a time of great communion, ...read more

    The Seed Of Change Series

     | 7,935 views

    God brings change to our world slowly, one person at a time, but with dynamic results.

    I guess the parable of the sower is a familiar one to most of us. It’s one of those stories that have been told and retold countless times. So the danger is that when we hear it again we can think we already understand everything that there is to learn from it. Yet God’s word is living and active, ...read more

    What is true worship in spirit and in truth?

    TRUE WORSHIP by Pastor Jim May In Psalms 122:1 David penned these words, "I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD." Are you glad to be in House of the Lord this morning? I want you to know that you are so very welcome to come and worship with us. I am so very glad ...read more

    God’s Wisdom Is Health For The Whole Body

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Nov 21, 2021
     | 2,322 views

    Either our heart is slowly being filled with evil things, or gradually being filled with good. One heart condition ends in death, the other leads to life. So guard your heart! Then God will bless your life, from the inside out.

    Some of us are involved in health care. In our church, we have nurses and others who work at nearby hospitals or nursing homes. Health and wellness are their daily focus. But health is vital for everyone, of course. We should all give it attention. How do you care for the body God has given you? Do ...read more

    The Book Of Lamentations – Part 10 – A Defeated Nation Mocked And Hissed At – God’s Word Never Returns Empty - Chapter 2:15-17 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Mar 22, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 364 views

    The enemy mocking and hissing at a defeated and downtrodden people was the delight of passers-by, but persecuted Christians suffer that today increasingly. It’s an ugly world when sin is in control. Wickedness these days is galloping. Do not oppose the Jew or Israel.

    THE BOOK OF LAMENTATIONS – PART 10 – A DEFEATED NATION MOCKED AND HISSED AT – GOD’S WORD NEVER RETURNS EMPTY - CHAPTER 2:15-17 Jeremiah is sometimes called “the weeping prophet,” and I like to think of him as one of the most passionate writers in the Old Testament, in fact, in all of scripture. ...read more

    Tears are a language that God understands. Tears speak more about what our hearts feel than any words could ever express. When words just won’t come, it’s our tears that shout out to God.

    Prayer of Tears Psalm 56:8 (The Living Bible) We’ve started a new series called ‘When you pray…’ and over the next few weeks we’re going to be looking at this thing we call prayer and the different types of prayer that are available to us.
