    Good News?

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Oct 22, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,786 views

    John wants to know whether Jesus is the Messiah, because it doesn’t seem that the gospel he’s proclaiming is good news. But it is!

    I guess everyone has some idea what we mean when we talk about the gospel. But I wonder what your preferred translation of that word would be. Is Good News the correct translation do you think? Is the gospel necessarily good news? You may never have thought about that question, but if you do ...read more

    You were planted to produce fruit. What is your purpose, productivity and produce?

    PLANTED TO PRODUCE FRUIT A young man wanted to become a missionary. He was told to come to the missionary examiner’s home at 5:00 AM. So the next morning, with snow on the ground, the young man showed up at the home at 5:00 and rang the bell at a missionary examiner’s home. Ushered ...read more

    Rising Or Rejecting? Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,986 views

    The man at the pool of Bethsaida had lost his will to achieve, and blamed others. Jesus, however, gave Him his self-worth as well as his health. Do not blame prejudice or racism for failure; turn to Jesus and be healed and motivated.

    The day dawned like any other day ... a little chillier, maybe, than you might have expected this time of year. But still, about as gray and bleak and unpromising as any other day. After all, every day was about like every other day. What reason did he have to expect anything different? For 38 ...read more

    Vacillating Vision

    Contributed by Donnie Martin on Mar 21, 2011
     | 5,115 views

    This message deals with the process involved in biblical vision. Just because one is led by God to see what He intends for a particular work, does not mean that all will remain static, and without obstacles.

    Vacillating Vision Text: Ex. 3:7-10; Ex. 4:29-31; Prov. 29:18 Intro: When one uses the word “vision” he could be talking about any number of things. One could be talking about the faculty of sight, a perception gained by supernatural means, or simply intelligent foresight. However, the biblical ...read more

    Just Another Manger

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Nov 10, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,053 views

    Angels' music, while sweet, was not designed to be a resting place for a baby's head. Since cribs are not found in stables, the only thing that could serve that purpose was something as simple as the feeding trough of the stable animals ... the manger.

    The sun was setting over ancient Palestine, as it had done so many times before. The wife of the manger-maker walked to the back door of the little workshop in the back of the house, as she had done so many times before. She went there to tell her husband that the evening meal was ready. ...read more

    When you experience conflict as a result of following Jesus, you are not headed in the wrong direction. Instead that’s a sign you are being faithful to the Gospel.

    The Conflict Matthew 10:22-25 Last week we learned if we are going to commit to following Jesus then we need to make sure we know what we’re signing up for because following Jesus can lead to pretty hazardous work.

    Heart Bypass (1996)

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,144 views

    If we do not understand what God does for us every day, then we will not receive what He wants to do when we really need Him. Sometimes He must withdraw from us because our abundance blinds us. (Communion message)

    If we do not understand what God does, every day, then we will not receive what He wants to do when we really need Him. If with both minds and hearts we do not grasp that it is God who provides for us, day after day, even when we don’t think we need Him, then our minds will be closed and our ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,498 views

    In order for God to show up and display his power in our life and church we need to do a spiritual inventory and confess and repent of our sin.

    Today we have set aside as a day of prayer and fasting. We began our 24 hour vigil at midnight last night and it will go until midnight tonight (so if you just heard about it this morning you are still in luck). We are preparing ourselves, our church, our community, for a God visit during our ...read more

     | 6,224 views

    People need hope and so many are living a hopeless life. In this message we will see the hope that can only come through Jesus Christ.

    What ever happened to hope Proverbs 13:12 (NKJV) Hope deferred makes the heart sick, But when the desire comes, it is a tree of life.

    Do we long to worship God?

    June 30, 2013 Psalm 84 Why are you here this morning? If you pray, why? If you read the Bible, why? Is it out of duty? You feel you have to do it. And if you don’t, God will be mad at you and bad things may happen to you. I hope those aren’t the reasons. My hope is that we ...read more
