    When we die to ourselves only then are we truly alive.

Since Christ Suffered Jesus ...read more

    A sermon about learning to love ourselves as Jesus loves us.

    “Looking at Passing Feet?” Luke 13:10-17 Our Gospel story for this morning is about a woman who “was bent over and could not straighten up at all.” Isn’t that an interesting way to be identified? She has no other name that we know—history has named her, judged her and labeled her by her ...read more

     | 16,848 views

    Like the Israelites of old, many of us find ourselves staring at an obstacle of some kind that stands between us and the spiritual goals we have set for ourselves for the new year.

    NAVIGATING THE NEW YEAR Overcoming the Obstacles Bette Nesmith had a good secretarial job in a Dallas bank when she ran across a problem that interested her.

    Sin at its worst is the inability to understand ourselves and to control ourselves, leading to separation from self, others, and God. The cross, the empty tomb, and Christ’s life rescue us.

    Well, are you ready today for the fourth step, the step that’s all the way down at the floor level? Those who were not here last Sunday do not know what I’m talking about.

    The Book Of Galatians – Chapter 4:8-11 - Message 14 - Do Not Become Wallowing Sows In Bondage – Protect Your Freedom In Christ Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 1, 2024
     | 610 views

    The Galatians had exchanged the bondage of idolatry for the bondage of the Law. False teachers promise freedom but chain their adherents in bonds. Our freedom in Christ must be protected. Do not use your freedom as an excuse to sin.

    THE BOOK OF GALATIANS – CHAPTER 4:8-11 - MESSAGE 14 - DO NOT BECOME WALLOWING SOWS IN BONDAGE – PROTECT YOUR FREEDOM IN CHRIST [PART A] Galatians 4:8 However at that time, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those which by nature are no gods, Galatians 4:9 but now that you have come ...read more

     | 5,415 views

    Christians were persecuted by the Jews, then by the Romans, and by the Nazis and the Communists, and by fundamentalist Muslims and others today. Why should we in the West or US, Canada, Autsralia or New Zealand be excused from suffering for our faith?

In the Gospels Jesus is recorded as saying some lovely things, that we are loved, that we are forgiven, that we are his friends, but in today's Gospel reading, his words are far from lovely.
