Christmas And Love - The Connection

Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Dec 16, 2021

For many, Christmas is a secular holiday where people feel "the Christmas spirit" and thus are a little more caring of others. It's a time for giving gifts and having large family gatherings for a holiday meal. But for a Christian, it anything but. For a Christian it is about Love.

Christmas and Love – The Connection Scripture: John 3:16; Mark 12:30-31; First Peter 4:8; First John 4:16-19 This morning I want to talk to you about the connection between Christmas and love.

Core Value 2 - Mission Minded Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Mar 20, 2019

This sermon uses Matthew 28:18-20 to give biblical teaching on the NEC core value of being Mission Minded where we seek “To lead not-yet-believing family, friends and neighbours into a mature relationship with Christ and integrate them completely into the life of our church.”

Message Matthew 28:16-20 Mission Minded In a town near a river which is full of fish there is a fishermen’s club. Week after week the fishermen in this club meet to talk.

Women Of Faith Sermon V: Woman At The Well: Thirst-Quenching Faith Series

Contributed by Charles Cunningham on Jun 24, 2020

When a way of life conforms to worldly standards, thereby destroying one's family as well as oneself, it's time to quit pretending everything's okay and to get right with God via a spiritual encounter with God's Son the Savior.

First In Everything! (A Christmas Sermon)

Contributed by David Mende on Dec 1, 2018

Christ deserves the first place in all things: in our lives, in our families, in our time, in our conversations, in our studies, in our mission and ministry, in our jobs and businesses, in our decisions, and in everything! I would be delighted if you could rate this sermon and give brief feedback.

INTRODUCTION (SECURE ATTENTION) & BACKGROUND OF THE PASSAGE: PRAY before starting the sermon. We live in a pluralistic society and thus presenting the uniqueness of Christ is a great challenge. Some see Jesus as a great teacher. Some see Him as a prophet. Others perceive Him as a great ...read more

Don't Throw In The Towel

Contributed by Greg Carr on Feb 10, 2011

Lately, I have been hearing how the enemy has been picking on people in our church. When the enemy attacks you or your family or some aspect of your life, it might be easy to give up and let him have the victory but that is not what we are supposed to do.

Let’s pray. Father, Open my eyes so I can see Your truth. Open my ears so I can hear Your voice. Open my mind so I can understand Your Word. And open my heart so I may receive all that You want me to receive. AMEN Have you ever felt like throwing in the towel? Do you know what it means to ...read more

What Is The Proof

Contributed by Dr. Abraham Obadare on Dec 27, 2022

Every Christmas people gather in churches and exchange gifts among families and friends. Glory and honor to God for giving us His Son, Jesus Christ. We thank Jesus Himself, who chose to be born into our lives, die for us, and resurrected to give us eternal life.

Although there are some people who do not celebrate Christmas because they claim Jesus was not born on the 25th of December. Okay, maybe they are right. Contrariwise, others celebrate Christmas, regardless of when Jesus was born. The question I would like you to ponder today and answer is, ...read more

Sukkot - Feast Of Tabernacles, The Ingathering

Contributed by William Akehurst on Sep 25, 2021

The Feast of Tabernacles, families create outdoor living space to eat their meals and rest, spending as much time as possible in this outdoor “booth”. As I look to the open sky, I am reminded to “Look up, for your redemption draws near.” But to understand the INGATHERING, this means so much more!

Sermon # 12 - God's Grace And Man's Responsibility Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 15, 2024

God’s grace and His justice are like two sides of the same coin. Both go hand in hand and if we underplay one or overplay the other, we will err and miss out on God’s eternal reward. The life of Lot and his family will help us understand this better.

We read in Genesis 19:16, When Lot still hesitated, the angels seized his hand and the hands of his wife and two daughters and rushed them to safety outside the city, for the LORD was merciful. (NLT) Most of us are familiar with the incident of the destruction of the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. ...read more

Resurrection: Fact Or Fiction?

Contributed by Scott Maze on Apr 16, 2025

Some of you have played Jenga with your family, right? You seek to pull piece after piece out without the tower collapsing. If Christianity were a Jenga tower, the resurrection is the one block that, when pulled, the tower comes crashing down every single time.

Dead people stay dead.1 “Nobody goes to funerals and says, ‘What’s the over/under if this person comes alive again?’” I have yet to see one dead person come back to life. I doubt you have seen any dead person live again, either. Once people have gone down the road of death, they just don’t return.2 ...read more

Contributed by Alan Tison on Sep 9, 2010

We Must Pay The Price Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 4, 2019

we must discern as families how to respond to the attacks of secular culture, and use our assets, out time, talent and treasure, to restore beauty to our worship, teach religious and moral truths to our communities, and do everything we can to show goodness to the world–to become saints.

Epiphany 2018 The Cost of Discipleship When we compare the stories we have been reading in St. Luke’s Gospel with the reading today from St. Matthew, we are tempted to wonder if this is a story about two different families.
