     | 1,347 views

    A quote: Philip Yancy. Christianity offers a cross and empty tomb. The sermon deal's with Pilate's question: "What is truth?" N.T. Wright Surprised by Hope, reminds us that the Bible actually does not just teach “life after death,” but rather “life after life after death!”

    Good Grief! Series

    Contributed by Duane Wente on Oct 13, 2025
     | 108 views

    We all thirst for meaning, hope, and grace. In Christ, we find the living water that truly satisfies. “Good grief” awakens us to our need for Him, leads us to repentance, and brings new life. The world is thirsty. Don’t leave them under an empty spigot — point them to Jesus, the living water.

    ### **Introduction** Video Ill.: Cat Funeral — The Skit Guys This morning, we are continuing our study The Gospel According to Peanuts. Charles Schulz, through something as simple as a comic strip, often pointed to some of life’s deepest spiritual truths — and even the truths of the gospel. That ...read more

    Killing "the God Of Me"

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Apr 29, 2021
     | 2,641 views

    There is only one throne in a person's heart; it either belongs to you or to the Lord God Almighty. Jesus won't share it with you and you cannot expect Him to do so. There is only one remedy, to kill "the god of Me" and enthrone the True and Living God there!

    Killing "The god of Me” Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Matthew 5:6-8 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful, for they shall be shown mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall ...read more

    Balak's hired soothsayer tries to curse the Israelites three times, but the words that come forth are a wonderful surprise, which can inspire us all.

    Promise Keeper Series

    Contributed by Brady Boyd on Dec 18, 2019
     | 3,180 views

    My parents never made empty promises to me. Now that I’m an adult, I realize my parents were always honest with me. Because of their honesty, I’ve found it easier to believe in a God that keeps his promises. That is not true for many people who find God too mysterious to understand, much less trust.

     | 5,638 views

    This message compares the state of the world before the flood and its current state of lawlessness. Daily news reports often highlight cases of murder, hatred, and violence prevailing all over the world, attempting to remove God from society. Hence, the question is, would you have assisted Noah?

    Ang Muling Pagkabuhay Ni Hesus Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Mar 27, 2024
     | 6,700 views

    Siya ay nabuhay! Siya ay buhay! Si Jesus ay muling nabuhay upang hindi mamatay. Ang iba sa Bagong Tipan ay nabuhay, ngunit namatay muli, tulad ni Lazarus. Si Jesus ay binuhay mula sa mga patay at siya ay mabubuhay magpakailanman.

    Ang muling pagkabuhay ay ang pinakasentro at esensya ng Kristiyanismo. Ito ay “pangunahing kahalagahan” ng pananampalatayang Kristiyano. Ang kakanyahan na iyon at ang kahalagahan ay nakuhang maganda sa 1 Mga Taga-Corinto 15:3-5. Sapagkat ibinigay ko sa inyo bilang pinakamahalaga sa lahat ang ...read more

    When Jesus was crucified, some turned away and some ran away from Him. But there was at least one man didn't do that and his life changed forever. Do you know who that man was?

    God asked Ezekiel "Can these bones live?" And they did. What did that vision mean then, and what does it mean to us today?

    (We began with this dramatic reenactment of the Ezekiel 37 passage found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8lKpzzOEhyY) What you just saw was a powerful reenactment of the vision that God gave to Ezekiel (the video showed a view of the valley of bones being bought to life while a narrator read ...read more

    Hay victoria en Jesús. ¡El Señor resucitado! La hora de la oscuridad ha llegado y se ha ido. El poder de Dios venció la oscuridad. Él está vivo para siempre. No le des la victoria en tu vida al enemigo derrotado.

    Toda la historia conduce a la cruz y todo desde entonces se deriva de la cruz. Es el punto central de todos los tiempos. Sin embargo, la cruz es un punto bajo en la historia de la humanidad. Es el momento en que el ungido de Dios fue ejecutado. En la línea de tiempo de la historia, la cruz es ...read more

    We Have Access Youth Sermon

    Contributed by Youth Sermons on Sep 5, 2023
    based on 4 ratings
     | 419 views

    While the Crucifixion of Christ allowed for forgiveness of our sins, the Resurrection serves as our entrance into Heaven. We all have a choice to make in this life. Will we follow Jesus Christ to wherever He may lead us? Or, will we try to do things the world’s way, chasing after meaningless, temporary and empty satisfaction for only a few, short years? The Resurrection calls us to have an Eternal perspective.

    Today, we're gonna talk about the Resurrection of Jesus. That's the event we celebrate on Easter. But before we dive in, let me show you something cool. See this locked box? Imagine all the awesome stuff inside, but we can't get to it because it's locked. Bummer, right? Well, Jesus is like the key ...read more
