(Finding the Blueprint Again) --- 1. The Great Design Problem We live in a world obsessed with building things—apps, ideologies, identities, futures.

Life From The Son

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 17, 2025

Worship is the soul turning toward Christ’s light—adoration that becomes transformation, joy that becomes service, life aligned with divine love.

The Flower and the Smile: What Worship Really Is There are moments when a question feels too obvious to ask and yet too heavy to ignore. One of those questions has followed me for years: Why does God want our worship? If He is all-powerful, all-knowing, and all-sufficient, why would He want—much ...read more

Older brothers get lost at home—close to God yet far from His heart—but the Father invites them inside to enjoy His joy.

INTRODUCTION – MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND Today our nation pauses to remember those who gave their lives for freedom. For many, Memorial Day is a date on the calendar; for me, it is a name.

Thanking God Series

Contributed by D Marion Clark on Mar 6, 2016

Surely our Lord meditated upon Jonah’s fish story. He knew that he was heading into a mighty storm. Unlike Jonah, he was not fleeing from God’s presence. He was heading directly to the storm, and he himself would leap

God Is Never Late

Contributed by Omololu Ogunremi on Apr 7, 2017

Heavy Lifting

Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Feb 25, 2019

I believe in this day and age the Church is in the condition it is and can be summed up by understanding the importance of HEAVY LIFTING. I believe we have stopped doing the HEAVY LIFTING required to lead the Lost to Christ.

TITLE: HEAVY LIFTING SCRIPTURE: ST. JOHN 3:14-15 / ST. JOHN 12:32 One of the things I enjoyed about lifting weights is there's no gray area – • You either manage to lift a certain weight - or you don't • There are clear successes and clear failures • Either you Can or you Can’t • This ...read more

He Leadth Me Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Mar 3, 2019

The Lord is not "the shepherd" and He's not "a shepherd." David says He's MY shepherd. What does that mean for us?

(I started the sermon by singing the first verse of “He Leadeth Me” and then asked the congregation to join me in the chorus) “He leadeth me, O blessed thought! O words with heav’nly comfort fraught! Whate’er I do, where’er I be, still ’tis God’s hand that leadeth me.’ (CHORUS) He leadeth me, He ...read more

A WHOLE NEW WORLD (ACTS 16:1-15) A whole new world emerged to me when I moved from USA to Hong Kong in 2008 after living there for 21 years.

Why Do We Need Jesus As Our Shepherd?

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 1, 2021

Shepherds were known for their devotion to the sheep in their care. This parable illustrates Jesus's love for us as the shepherd of our souls who laid down His life for us. His sheep follow Him because they know His voice.

John 10:1 - 10:  “Very truly, I tell you, anyone who does not enter the sheepfold by the gate but climbs in by another way is a thief and a bandit. 2 The one who enters by the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep hear his ...read more

Successful Prayer

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 13, 2021

If success is pleasing God, and God is not pleased with all kinds of external forms and activities, where the heart is far from him, than it follows that the only road to spiritual success is the road to inner space.

Henry Brown prayed for a way to escape. He was a slave in Richmond, Virginia, and desperately wanted to be free. He finally felt his prayer was answered when he was inspired by a unique idea.
