     | 2,795 views

    In a weary world, Jesus calls us to Himself!

    The Jesus Alternative Matthew 11:28-30 August 27, 2023 When you think about it, we make so many decisions on a given day. I really don’t want you to think about it, just trust me, because it’s overwhelming to think about. Want a cup of coffee? You can go to the Alexandria Bakery, Casey’s, Get ...read more

    The Ultimate Wilderness Guide

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on May 15, 2023

    Lack of belief is a sin because if you don't understand that reunion with God is the purpose of life, you will wind up lost. Literally.

    I was 8 years old when my family moved to Brazil. Everything changed: language, food, customs, weather. And one of the things that I at least did not expect was the absence of school buses. If Dad couldn’t take us we had to take public transportation: a taxi, a tram, a bus. We usually took a city ...read more

    Shadows Of The Past

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,371 views

    We have heard the expression, "Let go and let God". Let your problems go and let God deal with them. Let go of your worries and let God take care of that. Let go of your past and let God give you a future. And yet we have forgotten that proven philosophy.

    So many times, we have heard the expression, "Let go and let God". Let your problems go and let God deal with them. Let go of your worries and let God take care of that. Let go of your past and let God give you a future. All of that is as true as the Holy Scriptures themselves. And yet ...read more

    The Four Faces Of Obedience

    Contributed by John Gaston on May 17, 2023
     | 5,196 views

    Christianity is not just a set of beliefs. James said the demons believe and tremble, but their belief doesn't save them, because they don't OBEY God. Our faith should cause us to walk, stand, live, and obey.

    THE FOUR FACES OF OBEDIENCE Gen. 22:1-13 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. There are times when even doing what is right seems like it will backfire on you. Old habits are hard to break. 2. One guy invariably left off the cap to the toothpaste and for years his wife had hounded him about it. Finally, ...read more

    Things are not what they seem to. It's not what I expected.

    As we look at our story, we see that John had been in the desert disciplining himself waiting for this special moment. And when the Word of God came to him, he came out of the desert preaching up a storm. And let me drop something in your spirit early this morning and that is whenever those who are ...read more

    We must solemnly swear that we will support and defend the Faith against all enemies, outside the church and in the church; that we will bear true faith and allegiance to the Word of God; obey the orders of the Son of God Jesus Christ, according to unadulterated Word of God. So, help me God

    Obeying Our General Orders By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. OPENING: - When I enlisted in the Army and before I went off to Basic Training I like every person that enlist in the (military) U.S. Army had to recite the Oath of Enlistment which went “I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I ...read more

    Worship And Justice

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on May 28, 2023
     | 1,448 views

    We deplore the loss of morality, the loss of civility, the loss of social stability - and yet how many of us recognize that those are only the deeper symptoms of a greater loss, the loss of our sense of accountability before God?

    Judah, the Hebrews’ southern kingdom, was big on denial. By 740 BC, when Isaiah began to preach, the brutal and ambitious kingdom of Assyria had amply demonstrated their intentions and abilities. They were bent on conquering Egypt, the prize of the Mediterranean, and had to conquer everything else ...read more

    There are three distinct aspects of salvation: justification, sanctification, and glorification. This message will give details of each.

    For the past few weeks we have been talking about being set apart from the rest of the world. We are set apart because we are Holy as we work at becoming as much like God as we can. In this process we are sanctified, or in the process of being sanctified. That's the direction that we're ...read more

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jun 9, 2023

     | 1,647 views

    So many people are gripped with all kinds of fears, one of the major ones being the fear of death. Learn what Jesus did to set us free from this daunting fear of death, to give us hope for eternity.

    We read in Hebrews 2:14-15, “Since then the children are sharers in flesh and blood, he also himself in like manner partook of the same; that through death he might bring to nought him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; and might deliver all them who through fear of death were all ...read more

     | 4,847 views

    Joseph and his brothers clearly didn't get along and it wreaked havoc on the family. What causes things like sibling rivalry and how can God work through our imperfect relationships? Check out these thoughts from our Family Minister Scott Jewell.

    Did I ever tell you I have three sisters? Growing up, we were quite competitive in just about everything. Be it sports, games, music, acting- there was always something for us to try to outdo each other. If our family had been the one in today’s text, my sisters would likely say that I was ...read more

    Sermon # 15 - The Gradual Steps Of Backsliding Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 9, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 785 views

    Jonah walked away from God and landed everyone aboard the ship he travelled in big trouble. Backsliding is a gradual process, but if we repent and turn back to the Lord we can be reconciled and restored to our first love.

    We read in Jonah 1:10-12, Then the men were terrified. They knew that he was running away from the LORD, because he had told them. They asked Jonah, "Why have you done this?" The storm was getting worse. So they asked Jonah, "What should we do with you to calm the sea?" He told ...read more

    When we fail in our eyes, in the eyes of others even, God doesn’t see failure. He sees redemption.

    I spent the last week at camp with my wife. We were tasked to serve as cabin counselors during the week, Monday through Friday. Let’s just say we had a very interesting week.
