Does God Rub Off On You? Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Aug 25, 2013

God is good and powerful that, even though we fought Him tooth and nail, He still saved us, cleansed us and now transforms us into His character. That wonderful work is something to behold, and the riches we receive are incredible.

Psalm 112 is about the character of people who have submitted themselves to be led by God. It follows on the heels of Psalm 111 which reveals the character of our God. In that psalm God is described as gracious and compassionate, a provider, Someone who makes promises and keeps them faithfully, and ...read more

Hatching Snake Eggs

Contributed by Gregory Mc Donald on Feb 10, 2010

This morning I want to look at v. 5 especially, and the idea of hatching snake eggs and spinning spider webs. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that in the world today there is a serious breakdown of holiness even among God's people.

HATCHING SNAKE EGGS ISAIAH 59:1 8 Living in the country has so many advantages that I had forgotten about. The scenery, the freshness of the air, the crickets playing their music in the night. And there is also the opportunity for seeing some of God's most beautiful creatures... (do the snake) ...read more

Will You Also Walk Away From Salvation?

Contributed by Spencer Miller on Jun 3, 2013

One of the most vital characteristics of a true Christian is loyalty. Even in the secular realm, loyalty is a highly valued trait of character, yet one that is often abused. How loyal are you to God? To your husband or wife? To your nation? To your employ

“Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? Then Simon Peter answered Him, Lord, to whom shall we go? Thou hast the Words of eternal life. And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God. Introduction Branch Rickey, whose name was recently ...read more

The Good Confession Series

Contributed by Maurice Mccarthy on Mar 12, 2019

I believe that we have entered what I am calling the age of antichrist. The social credit system active in China is the pattern the antichrist will institute around the world. This message is a challenge to be ready to confess your faith even if it costs you.

Heal The Wound, Leave The Scar

Contributed by Shawn Andrews on Mar 14, 2019

Big Idea: Forgiveness is healing the wound, even if it leaves a scar. Forgiving others means choosing not to be imprisoned by the actions of our offender. Jesus will heal our wound, but the scar remains to remind us of God’s work of grace in our lives.

INTRO: STORY: Last year, you all know I had shoulder surgery. I didn’t want to have surgery. I avoided it as long as possible. But eventually, my shoulder hurt all the time. It became debilitating. It was only when I became aware of what my wound was keeping me from, was I willing to do ...read more

Deflating Depression

The Unrequited Love Of God

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Apr 1, 2019

The passionate love of God is the blazing fire at the heart of all creation. God thinks about you every moment of every day. His love will never vary or change. That God would love even the vilest of sinners is the greatest mystery of eternity.

God has commanded that every human being love Him with EVERYTHING in them (Deut 6:5). The GREAT commandment supersedes all others. Sadly, in the lives of too many Christians, God’s love is unrequited. There are some Christians who are not comfortable with the way God truly feels about them, so ...read more

The Tabernacle Series Series

Contributed by Dr. Steve Newton on Oct 3, 2017

The tabernacle series was taught on Wed evening at our church. 2 Cor.5:19 reads, "God was in Christ reconciling the world to him." From the Tabernacle God reached out to sinful man. We should not be surprised to see Jesus in the Tabernacle.

Abundant Life

Contributed by Tony Abram on Oct 14, 2017

Many messages have been preached on John 10:10 telling of the great prosperity that God wants us to have. Even though God wants to bless His people there is more to this message of Abundant Life than just a lot of money.

Accidents Happen

Contributed by Chris Cuthbertson on Oct 16, 2017

God knows all about pain. He experienced the pain of the cross so that we could have the ultimate victory over pain, sickness, suffering, and death. God can bring good, even out of suffering. God will be victorious in the end.

Accidents Luke 13: 1 – 9; Acts 27 The phone rings in the middle of the night. A child is late coming home.

Greed - America's God Series

Contributed by Bob Marcaurelle on Sep 10, 2020

What we think about the most; work the hardest for and love the most is our "god". And for most Americans, even those in our churches, this is material possessions. We worship "ourselves" and the possessions are out offerings to ourselves

The Resurrection And The Life Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Apr 2, 2021

Knowing Jesus as the Resurrection and the Life means having the hope and security that Jesus has always been there for us to give us a comprehensive answer for our pain, confusion, grief and disappointment. Jesus is there even when it doesn’t feel like it.

Sweet As Honey, But Bitter To The Tummy.

Contributed by Howard Strickland on Apr 29, 2021

This is a verse upon verse teaching/preaching message on Revelation chapter 1 through Chapter 21. John on the island of Patmos gives Revelation even though he's confined. Nothing stops God's powerful word.

Sweet As Honey, But Bitter To The Tummy. Revelation 10:1-10TPT I saw a car tag with the state of Missouri on it. In the bottom of the tag it read, “Show Me state.” The phrase, “Show Me,” was coined in 1899 by then Congressman Willard Duncan Vandiver while delivering a speech in Philadelphia. “I ...read more
