Pigs On The Beach Series

Contributed by Denn Guptill on Feb 2, 2014

It seems that Jesus travels to the Gerasense for a specific purpose.

It wasn't your typical day at the beach. Instead of beach umbrellas, lounge chairs and a sandcastle, we have a cemetery, a violent man, the supernatural, outraged citizens and pigs. And I'm pretty flexible, especially about beaches, but I draw the line at pigs on the beach. This is week four of ...read more

Living in our identity as appreciated saints.

Spiritual Lessons From The Lord's Temptation

Contributed by Rick Crandall on Feb 5, 2014

Nobody Likes A Wishy Washy God

Contributed by John Gaston on Feb 11, 2014

Our society today acts like it prefers a wimpy, compromising deity, that will agree its sins are ok. But an honest appraisal of what we will respect and honor as God demands that God be exactly who the Bible portrays: the Holy & uncompromising God!

NOBODY LIKES A WISHY WASHY GOD 1 Sam. 15:29; Ex. 32:14 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. JOKE. Two convicts were working on a chain gang. "I heard the warden's daughter up and married a guy down on cellblock D," the first con says to the other. "The warden's mighty upset about it too." "Why?" asks the ...read more

Tending The Fire

Contributed by Kerry O'neill on Dec 24, 2014

It is ALL about a relationship with Jesus and it takes discipline to pursue Him. It is NOT meant as a guilt trip for those who do not have a daily quiet time, but practical helps on how to. *May be better preached as series. Lots of content, a bit rushed.

The Fire on the Altar - Leviticus 6:8-13 The LORD said to Moses: 9 “Give Aaron and his sons this command: ‘These are the regulations for the burnt offering: The burnt offering is to remain on the altar hearth throughout the night, till morning, and the fire must be kept burning on the ...read more
