This week I learned about an interesting paradox called The Mother’s Paradox. Mothers, see if you can relate to any of these ideas: • Motherhood is a complete sacrifice of alone time, but it can be so lonely • In Motherhood, the days are long but the years are short • Motherhood is hilarious, but ...read more

Is The Marriage, Idea Of God Or Human? Series

Contributed by Shaila Touchton on Mar 1, 2024

Let us recognize and honor marriage as a divine institution, ordained by God from the beginning. May our understanding of this truth shape our perspective on marriage and our commitment to upholding its sanctity.

Some might say that marriage is a human construct, a social convention created by man. But let us look to the Bible for guidance. Origin of Marriage: In Genesis 2:23-24, we read: "The man said, 'This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called woman, for she was ...read more

Paul's Model Of Pastoral Care (Acts 20:28-31)

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 13, 2024

The Beast From The Sea: A Portrait Of The Antichrist (Revelation 13:1-10)

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 13, 2024

Revelation 13 gives us a detailed picture of Satan's counterfeit Messiah, whom the Scriptures call the Antichrist. He is "the Man of Sin" who will delude the whole world into following him with horrific consequences and eternal regret.

Revelation 13 gives us the description and work of the prophesied Antichrist. The Bible describes this agent of Satan as "the man of sin" (2 Thessalonians 2:3) and "the Son of Perdition". He will be the worst blasphemer, the worst hater of God, the worst dictator, the worst ...read more

Joseph In Trouble (Genesis 39)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jul 21, 2024

When faithful believers are in deep trouble will God intervene to help? Let's look at Genesis 39.

Sometimes in life people sell us out because they hate us, we are falsely accused and land in trouble. Do we trust in God, who even in the worst of times, can make our lives prosper, help us and be good to us? In the midst of slavery, did God look after Joseph? Now Joseph had been taken down to ...read more

Godliness Is A Deep Internal Transformation Series

Contributed by Shaila Touchton on Jan 15, 2025

True godliness is a deep internal transformation that aligns our thoughts, words, and deeds with the character of God.

In this Sermon, we will explore the biblical concept of "another gospel" and its implications for Christians.

The Deception Of Sinless Hell Series

Contributed by Shaila Touchton on Apr 9, 2025

In this sermon, we'll explore biblical examples that refute the idea of a sinless hell.

The notion that we don't go to hell because of sin is a misleading concept that has been circulating in some Christian circles.

A good Fan just shows up for the weekly event. Good Fans do that you know! And they will stay a Fan as long as it benefits them. A Follower of Jesus will follow. They will follow him even when there is a crisis, even when they do not fully understand.

Generosity

Contributed by Chuck Gohn on Jun 24, 2022

This sermon is about the false narratives that surround the idea of "generosity" or "giving" and the things that hinder Christians from having a generous spirit.

I want to start off by saying giving in the Christian life is not so much an external action. Something that we do out of guilt or obligation, but really what we do in response to the love of God and the generosity of God. A generosity that we try to imitate as we seek to be more like Jesus ...read more
