    Self Series

    Contributed by Chuck Gohn on Aug 24, 2022
     | 3,061 views

    This sermon focuses on culture's addiction to creating various versions of a "false-self" and how only God gives us access to the "true-self" made available through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.

    If you have your Bibles with you today, open up to Matthew 16:24. That is the passage, and by the end of the sermon, I promise I will get to it. If you have been here for a while, you know that we have begun a summer series called “Do not conform. Be transformed”. That series is based on the ...read more

    The Parable Of Someone Else Series

    Contributed by Scott Chambers on Aug 10, 2009
     | 4,461 views

    This message examines our tendency to expect someone else to carry our load within the church.

    The church family was shocked this week to learn of the passing of one of our most faithful members. Your state of shock is obvious as you begin to look around to try and figure out who is not here. I was saddened when I learned that Someone Else has gone on to receive his reward. This death leaves ...read more

    Through The Promises Of Jesus 2nd Coming Series

     | 5,052 views

    Joy is found in believing the Promises of God from the Bible and as we progress to the New Year there is a sense of expectation about the future for most. But there should also be an expectation and excitement about the possibility of Jesus second coming in 2020.

    Opening video illustration – If Jesus returned today – by skit guys. Series: Find Joy in the Journey in 2019 Thesis of series: Joy needs to be experienced in the journey of life! But Joy, like any other attitude, can come and go. It is not guaranteed simply because we are born again believers. We ...read more

    All the way from Eden even until our present time the devil has been constantly busy trying to cast doubt on God’s forever settled Word. There have always been spiritual trouble makers among believers and Jude will point some of these out.

    JUDE 1-24 PROCLAIMING AND CONTENDING FOR THE FAITH 8-20-11 Today Lord willing I am going to talk for a few minutes on the satanic forces that are trying to tear down the truth of the Word of God, and trying too cause us to wonder about our salvation. All the ...read more

    EOLS: The Jesus Test will determine whether a message or messenger comes from God.

    The Jesus Test 1John 4:1-4 (1) Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world.

    The church in Thyatira demonstrates the need to follow the ways of Jesus in order to prevent being deceived.

    In our culture, I think there is sometimes a tendency for us to look around at all the mega churches, even some right around us, and to begin to think that a smaller church like TFC really isn’t all that significant to the kingdom of God. But Jesus’ message to the church in Thyatira ...read more

    God is able to deal with all of our anxieties, not just a portion. He can relieve us of our fears for those things which will not really happen; for our concern for daily survival; and most of all, for our fear of death.

    When We Are Called To Those Who Are Hostile

    After being abused and accused by his fellow Jews, Jeremiah’s counsel was sought and ignored. Modern believers need to take note.

    If I hadn’t had a similar, though less lethal, experience, I probably wouldn’t relate to that scene in “The Godfather” where the old Mafioso tells the young boss how the traitor would try to kill him after his death. With me, we were in a nice restaurant in San Francisco (my executive editor and I) ...read more
