    My wife Chelsey and I went for dinner for my birthday last night, and the restaurant was super noisy. I was already feeling a bit sensitive on my birthday as many of us do, and it got stressful for me. Many of the people were drinking, and carrying on, having a good time, or so it seemed. And I ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,520 views

    God wants us to follow Abram’s example of living by faith, holding loosely to the things of this world, the things that appear to give comfort and security and to act on what God promises even when our external circumstances appear to indicate that it’s n

    If you’ve been here for the last couple of sermons in this series you may remember that one of the things we noted in the account of Adam & Eve was that they were called to live by faith in God’s word alone. All they were given to go on was what God had told them about not eating of the tree of ...read more

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jun 10, 2025
     | 284 views

    Drawing near to God in the beauty of holiness is not only a privilege but a divine expectation. The more we behold Him, the more we become like Him. Holiness is not about external rules, but an internal transformation that reflects God's nature and attracts His presence.

    DRAWING NEAR IN THE BEAUTY OF HOLINESS By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Psalm 96:9 Supporting Texts: Hebrews 12:14, 1 Peter 1:15-16, Isaiah 6:1-5, Matthew 5:8, Leviticus 11:44 INTRODUCTION: God desires that we draw near to Him, but He invites us to do so in the beauty of holiness.

    The Gospel: For All Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Sep 3, 2015
     | 5,356 views

    Paul has expressed astonishment that churches of Galatia have turned from faith alone to faith plus law. He says what they have really done is moved from the true gospel to no gospel at all.

    Is the Gospel really for everybody? You have probably heard someone tell the humorous one liner; you can’t get there from here. That is what the Judaizers were telling the churches in Galatia about coming to Christ only they weren’t trying to be funny. There were a group of people ...read more

    It is not until we see God, that we actually see ourselves (like Isaiah)! Have you tired of the externals yet? Are you ready to be exposed to the raw deity of the God-Man? Thank God, the Bible's full of people who weren't satisfied with the superficial. Are you?

    Consequences – You Don’t Avoid Them Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 14, 2025
     | 141 views

    God has ordained that everything in this universe has consequences. That is why a whole network of scientific laws operate to make all things function. Consequences apply to human behaviour and we look into these. Consequences apply to Christians as well.

    CONSEQUENCES – YOU DON’T AVOID THEM [A]. INTRODUCING THE SUBJECT – All of us know that if we trip on a set of stairs, we will tumble down. If we drive too fast around a sharp road bend, we are likely to skid off the road. If a branch separates from a very tall tree, it falls down and hits ...read more

    Legalism Exposed Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on May 6, 2024
     | 795 views

    This exposition of Romans 4:13-16 addresses the problem of trying to attain righteousness through good works. The law was given to expose our sinfulness and lead us to Christ for salvation. The deception of legalism is a problem that must be addressed.

    Intro Our text today is Romans 4:13-16: “It was not through the law that Abraham and his offspring received the promise that he would be heir of the world, but through the righteousness that comes by faith. 14 For if those who depend on the law are heirs, faith means nothing and the promise is ...read more

    Through this LAW & GOSPEL prophecy from Isaiah we are encouraged to let God heal the eyes and ears of our soul.

    You are handed something that looks like a strange plastic spatula. “Cover your right eye and read the smallest letters you can on the chart on the wall. Now do the same with the other eye,” you are told. The person speaking to you records the results. In another office an assistant to the ...read more
