Why We Need Revival

Contributed by Jerry Flury on Sep 12, 2012

I believe there are four reasons that we need revival as a church and individually – our eyes have been distracted, our hearts have become discouraged, our joy has been diminished, and our work has been disrupted

Why We Need Revival Psalm 85:1-6 Revival is the giving of a new breath of life to that which is either waning or has ceased to breathe. Revival is a visitation of God which brings renewed life to Christians who have been sleeping, restoring them, producing a deep sense of God's near presence and ...read more

Those Bones, Those Bones! (Hix)

Contributed by Jimmy Haile on Oct 20, 2012

Eyes seeing, ears hearing, feet walking, mouths talking, but dead without God. Rubbing elbows with the dead, that's why we have jobs, school, and shopping, and doctor appointments, to reach out to those who are dead!

Ezekiel was the Watchmen! Verse 1-2-The hand of the Lord came upon me and brought me out in the Spirit of the Lord, and set me down in the midst of the valley; and it was full of bones. Then He caused me to pass by them all around, and behold, there were very many in the open valley; and indeed ...read more

Part 9 - Matthew 9:27-31 - Have A Girl Look And You'll Find It! Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Mar 27, 2010

Many people have eyes but cannot see. They need to have a "GIRL LOOK" if they are ever to find Christ. And by that I don't mean I have to be a wimp. I just mean I need to seek Him with all my heart.

Part 9 - Matthew 9:27-31 - HAVE A GIRL LOOK AND YOU'LL FIND IT! My granddaughter was here yesterday. She is two years old. I pointed out some Pelicans sitting on a pole, but for a long time she could not see them. She didn't know where to look. I should talk. I ask my wife sometimes "Where are the ...read more

The Danger Of The Familiar Series

Contributed by David Henderson on Mar 28, 2010

Often our faith becomes stale. We can get so accustomed to things as they are and we become comfortable with our faith and in doing se we get stuck. This message challenges us to look at faith issues through fresh eyes.

“The Danger of the Familiar” Matthew 21:1-11 In the Episcopal church and also in the Catholic church they use phrases in the service that become very familiar to the congregation because they use these phrases over and over. In addition they also chant or sing the words. As a young ...read more

Surely Jesus Didn't Mean That!

Contributed by Greg Nance on Apr 5, 2008

Hate your parents, spouse, kids??? What is going on here in Luke 14? Before we decided to change the Word of God, consider the unthinkable with me for a bit. It might just open our eyes to a deeper understanding of who Jesus is.

(If you rate this sermon please offer helpful comments, God bless, Greg) When was the last time you said something that you really didn’t mean? What if I got up here and said, “If anyone comes to this church and does not hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters ...read more

Barzillai Series

Contributed by Bala Samson on Jul 23, 2013

The word ‘help’ is pretty rare in a society that turns a blind-eye and deaf-ear to the cries and pleas of people in need! This being the scenario, ‘help during times of danger’ is a rare commodity that we seldom hear of.

Barzillai! 2 Samuel 19:32 ‘Now Barzillai was a very aged man, eighty years old. And he had provided the king with supplies while he stayed at Mahanaim, for he was a very rich man.’ The word ‘help’ is pretty rare in a society that turns a blind-eye and deaf-ear to the cries ...read more

Bad things happen even to Christians. Yet, we are not alone. God places us in the family of faith. And as we keep our eyes on Jesus, we can endure anything, for his sake, knowing our faith will be rewarded, if not in this life, then in the next.
