The Visitor Who Never Arrived Series

Be Strong In The Lord & In His Mighty Power Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Dec 15, 2016

Never give up in the fight against sin and evil. But always remember the power of God and the armour with which he’s equipped us. And pray on every occasion that you’ll be able to stand firm.

Do you remember when we looked at Paul’s prayer in Eph 3 that I commented how difficult it is to achieve the sort of unity that God wants from his church? In fact I pointed out that that’s why Paul prays the way he does: because only by God’s power can this miracle come about. Paul knows that apart ...read more

Contributed by Charles Cunningham on Sep 11, 2019

Christians have been set free to flee the selfish desires of evil doers who prey upon us, so as to become the person God wants us to be and enjoy the abundant life Christ wants us to live!

FOUR GREAT FREEDOMS IN CHRIST SERMON IV: FREEDOM FROM WANT If I had to pick one of the many adages that I grew up with - the one that stands out more than the rest - I suppose it would be the admonition from my mother: “Nobody ever gets everything they want.” It ...read more

Parable Of The Foolish Farmer Series

Contributed by L Lee on Oct 3, 2010

The Paradox Of Pride Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 19, 2021

Man is in a strange predicament, caught between his own dignity and depravity; his own worth, and his wickedness. The result is another great paradox of life. Man's self-love is both an evil and a good.

Some people, probably most people, and maybe all people have to learn how to be humble the hard way, and that is the humpty dumpty way of having a great fall. This was the case with Max Eastman. A film was being made on the life of Christ, and he happened to meet the well known woman photographer ...read more

Expand - Gods Kingdom Series

Contributed by Selwyn Robins on Feb 1, 2014

* He was killing the system of Satan. The greatest trick Satan has is for us to believe he doesn't exist. It's not one man beating another, but a puppet master pulling the strings. It's good against evil.

Expand - God’s Kingdom (Intro) I hope everyone has not just been enjoying our Expand series, but getting filled with the word. Through this series our expectations are high that we get fed with meat and not milk. Amen? Amen. Speaking of Amen, we learned last week that Gods Amen was part of ...read more

The Purpose Of Walls

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Nov 23, 2015

God built His church to be ONE... but Satan builds walls to divide that church. How do we identify what the Devil does so that we can unify our church and challenge the power of the evil one?

Once upon a time, there were three little pigs. (You’ve heard this one, haven’t you?) The first little piggy built his house of straw, and the big bad wolf came and huffed and puffed and blew that house down. The second piggy built his house of sticks, and the big bad ...read more
