As children of God, we need to let our light shine for everyone to see.

Living In the Light Text: Eph. 5:1-14 Introduction 1. Have you ever noticed what often happens when a light burns out? Many times, when a light is turned on for the last time it produces a sudden burst of light (even burning brighter than it normally does) until the element burns into darkness. A ...read more

Real Love- Part 2 Series

Contributed by Kiruba Stephen on Feb 25, 2022

Imagine, if the Lord’s condition for coming down and dying for our souls and doing anything for us was based on whether we’ll be thankful or not.

Imagine, those ten that were healed of leprosy. If the Lord would have stopped, having the foreknowledge that only one would come back and nine would not give him thanks, He had the choice to say, “I won’t do this for them.” But did the Lord do that? No! He did not. He loved freely. Freely we have ...read more

Crazy Little Thing Called Love Series

Contributed by David Owens on Apr 19, 2021

The emotion of love and living a life of love can be very complicated. How do we navigate through all the confusing and emotionally charged stuff involved in love? By knowing God and walking in God's ways.

A. One day two men named Bill and Steve were discussing the possibility of love. “I thought I was in love three times,” said Bill. 1. Steve asked, “Thought you were in love, what do you mean?” 2. The man explained, “Three years ago, I cared very deeply for a woman who wanted nothing to do with me, ...read more

Jesus And Santa

Contributed by Jacob Brimm on Apr 21, 2021

What do Jesus and Santa have in common? Nothing? Perhaps more than you think, just not how you think! The true story of a man who got a name, though he personally would rather all credit go to The Son!

While we know very little about the man who likely bore the name, the most likely person was the Bishop of Myra, near modern Finike, Turkey, in the 300s. Nicholas' parents died when he was just a teenager. His parents left him a lot of money which made him a rich young man. He went to live ...read more

Inner Rubbish

Contributed by Dove Inspirations on Feb 1, 2022

What sins are you hiding? What sins are hiding in you?

There are some things we think, do and or say in our lives that make others wonder if we have ever met The LORD. When we look at these actions, we ourselves get concerned about our commitment to The MOST HIGH. We get uncomfortable and we get desperate to be back on the right path. Here is the ...read more

Walking In Love Series

Contributed by Michael Taber on Feb 9, 2021

A series of messages that suggest that walking with the Lord daily is as easy as Peter's walking on the water. If we keep our eyes fixed on Jesus we will be able to carry out the commands to walk found in Ephesians 4-6.

Here this morning we are moving our message series from Sunday nights to Sunday morning. Because I believe that this mini-series is one that our entire church needs to grapple with and I am praying that this concept will grip your heart.

Cohabitation Series

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Mar 1, 2021

This is the second message in the series that looks at what Christians say about issues and then compares them to what God says about them in scripture.

Who Is The Greatest? A Child?

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Sep 16, 2021
