    Are You On The Way Or In The Way?

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Apr 5, 2022
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,034 views

    Early Jewish Christians referred to themselves as "The Way," which some have surmised comes from the book of Isaiah, where it was prophesied, "prepare the way of the Lord" (Isaiah 40:3).

    "The Way" is how Jesus referred to Himself, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me" (John 14:6 ESV). Throughout the book of Acts, people who were followers of Jesus were not called Christians but considered "a sect of the ...read more

    Sensing God - Smell Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Jan 18, 2018
     | 9,645 views

    This sermon is the last in a series which considers the five senses and how our senses help us in our relationship with God. In this message we see that we can be a pleasing aroma to God and the calling we have to be an aroma to the world.

    The sense of smell is a powerful sense. If you are like me, as an example, the smell of a coffee especially in the morning, is a reviving smell. You can be asleep and then, if someone loves you enough to make it for you, the smell is able to wake you up. This is fantastic. What a great way to ...read more

    Paul is suggesting we should not necessarily limit ourselves to colleagues, or instructors or even celebrities, maybe especially celebrities, as our examples. We should look to God.

    Ephesians 5:1 Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children 2 and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God. You know those puzzles with a thousand pieces or so? Some are really difficult. If you've ...read more

    If the house, once cleaned of this demon, is not filled with goodness, the evil spirit will return with seven more vices and perversions and make our souls even worse, our souls and families even sicker.

    Third Sunday of Lent 2017 Extraordinary Form Today we find Christ, speaking through the Church’s liturgical texts, teaching us about the birds and the bees. I say the birds because the Communion verse tells us that the sparrow has found a home and the turtle dove a nest to lay her young near the ...read more

    Be Holy... Mission Impossible?

    Contributed by Paul Davidson on May 22, 2017
    based on 2 ratings
     | 23,217 views

    Be Holy… How is this even possible? I have a difficult time just being a decent husband and father. How am I supposed to be as holy as God Himself? I’m just human. I make mistakes. Why am I being commanded to do something that seems to be impossible?

    Please turn in your Bibles to 1 Peter 1:13-22… [READ] Our key verses this morning are verses 15-16… “15 but like the Holy One who called you, be holy yourselves also in all your behavior; 16 because it is written, ‘You shall be holy, for I am holy.’” Be Holy… How is this even possible?

    Many are skeptical of the church because of perceived hypocrites. How do we obtain credibility in our witness to others? How do live and walk in such a way to be an effective witness? We must walk in Christ to possess the credibility we need.

    The Credibility in Discipleship Ephesians 5:1-2; John 13:34-35 We have spent several weeks discussing the importance and need for discipleship. In the Great Commission, Jesus commanded us to teach all nations to observe His teachings. In essence, those who follow Christ as His disciples are ...read more

    Paul writes that we should imitate our Heavenly Father like children. How does a child imitate their parent, how can we "imitate God" and what difference can that make to our witness as Christians?
