    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Jul 26, 2018
     | 3,861 views

    Agape is the highest form of love … the love that everyone wants to receive but few are ready to give because of the sacrifice involved. How can anyone receive agape if no one is willing to live and to share and to give agape?

    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? I have a ...read more

    Lesson 21: Do Not Conform To Their Sinfulness Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 10, 2018
     | 6,130 views

    The danger is that we begin to think of the morally abnormal as normal and the things that tend to cause moral carelessness as matters of indifference. Christ-like love banishes the indecent.

    In this passage, we are told of yet another way in which we are to imitate God—we are to be “light.” Once the believers were “darkness,” but now they were “light in the Lord.”

    Commentary on the Book of Ephesians By: Tom Lowe Date: 11/8/17 Lesson 22: Confront them with the Gospel (Ephesians 5:8-14) Ephesians 5:8-14 (KJV) 8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light: 9 (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and ...read more

    This message explores the concept of crying out to God observed in Scripture.

    “Crying Out To God” Selected Passages It seems that it normally takes a severe crisis in our life before we truly cry out to God from the depths of our heart. Our relationship with God seems to have lost a real passion. We have lost the sense of desperation regarding our own condition as well as ...read more

    Our world is in need of great role modes, someone that one can look up to.

    Introduction In the previous years during the time that I grew up there seem to be a couple of hero’s that one could look up to and strive to be like. However today that list seems to be fading away, as I look around and realize that Billy Graham in November will turn 98 years old, truly on of ...read more

    As Christians we are to be distinctive from walking in the ways of the world by walking in love.

    Introduction Back in the late summer and fall, we explored together the fourth chapter of Ephesians, a chapter rich with teaching about the church and the individual Christian life. Let’s review briefly. The first three chapters of Ephesians form one glorious doxology extolling the riches we have ...read more

    Addresses sexual immorality and crudeness.

    Introduction We all have limits as to what we will and will not wear. Even if we are not fashion conscious, there are boundaries we will not cross.

    Develop Healthy Partnerships Series

    Since the Church has too long tolerated the teaching of our culture on sexuality and sexuaol relationships, it's time to speak up about building quality relationships.

    “Building Quality Relationships: With Jesus – Develop Healthy Partners” Eph. 5:3-8; 1 Cor. 6:9-20 Sometimes the words of Scripture hit me in the gut. In preparation for today’s message I was directed to such words, from Jesus Himself. In Rev. 2:19 Jesus commends the Church ...read more
