    Appearances Can Be Deceiving Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jun 7, 2009
    based on 66 ratings
     | 17,644 views

    God doesn’t judge from ouward appearance... but too often we do. What can we do to avoid that tendency?

    OPEN: How many of you have ever watched “American Idol”? (Nearly ½ the congregation raised their hands). Ok, how many of you have ever seen “Britain’s Got Talent.”? (A few hand went up) That’s understandable since “Britain’s Got Talent” is aired in Britain. It’s the English cousin of our “American ...read more

    Making Connections Series

     | 4,705 views

    For some, Paul’s greetings at the end of Romans might seem boring and not relevant. To the contrary, Paul’s connections with other believers offers us a rich tapestry of life and service in the 1st century church.

    Paul’s letter to the Romans was not merely a theological treatise on God’s plan to rescue mankind from evil. He wrote it to people he had (mostly) never met, in a city where he had never been. The purpose of his letter was that of introduction. “Hi, I’m Paul, and this is what I believe.” In ...read more

    Mary Woman Of Grace

    The intent of my message is not to elevate the story of Mary to the point of glorifying her in any way. We try not to glorify people around here much. Mary was highly favored , not highly exalted. We are here to glorify Jesus.

    MARY - WOMAN OF GRACE We have begun our holiday season. Thanksgiving through Christmas is a time when we get with family and friends to celebrate the joy of the holidays. During this time we are more conscious of the more meaningful things in life. This is the time when we are more thankful of ...read more

    True Fasting Series

    Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Sep 18, 2008
    based on 65 ratings
     | 48,183 views

    Though the people wanted the blessings of God, they were not interested in allowing God to change their heart, their attitude & their actions. They wanted their religion to gain them special favor with God so that they would win the dog eat dog struggle

    ISAIAH 58:3-12 TRUE FASTING Job 32:17-20 / Matthew 23:13-36 Going through the motions of religion, even those of sacrifice and fasting, does not move God. A true and vital relationship with God does not come through external religion and ritual. What brings the response of God into life is a ...read more

    Making The Right Kind Of Impression

    Contributed by Brian La Croix on Nov 17, 2008
     | 2,755 views

    Message about how Christians are supposed be looked on with favor, not with disgust, as happens so often today. While the gospel is offensive to many because of its call to repentance (and which is the basis for the world "hating" Christians), Scripture

    Making the Right Kind of Impression Acts 2:42-47; 5:12-13 November 2, 2008 NOTE: THE ME/WE/GOD/YOU/WE FORMAT USED (AND ADAPTED) IS FROM ANDY STANLEY’S BOOK, "COMMUNICATING FOR A CHANGE."

    Getting To The Heart

    Contributed by Dennis Lee on Nov 13, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,813 views

    Religion is about keeping and maintaining laws and traditions, but Jesus nullifies these rules and regulations in favor of a relationship, and within that relationship all the laws of God are contained and worked out. It is through this relationship that we can get to the heart of God.

    Getting To The Heart Watch on our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4o5NlL02LPU There is a popular phrase that is used when we want to get to the bottom of something, or of our need to get to the most important aspect of something. We say that we need to get to the heart of ...read more

    The Joy Of The Gospel And The Option For The Poor Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 24, 2015
     | 3,972 views

    When we act in favor of the poor–either by providing housing and food and medical care or by helping them to build systems that provide those things–we are acting as the Father and Son have done for us.

    Thursday of 1st week in Advent 2015 Joy of the Gospel During the time of Advent, we look forward to the return of Our Lord Jesus Christ. The prophet Isaiah speaks of this “day of the Lord” as one based on the security provided the faithful by the Rock, the Lord God. The haughty and ...read more

    Thankful In Praise

    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,579 views

    At a time when we are mindful of all that we have, the proper response to God’s blessings is to praise Him for the favor He has showed us, and the great things He has done in our lives.

    Thankful In Praise At a time when we are mindful of all that we have, the proper response to God’s blessings is to praise Him for the favor He has showed us, and the great things He has done in our lives. Simply being thankful is not enough; in fact, it’s the least we can do. Taking ...read more

    Greetings To The Church Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Sep 2, 2020
     | 4,737 views

    Paul's welcome in Thessalonica was less than favorable. Although he had been ill-treated while there, being forced to flee for fear of harm, his commitment and love for the church never diminished.

    Greetings to the Church 1 Thessalonians 1: 1-4 In the book of Acts we discover Paul receiving the Macedonian call, Acts 16: 8-10. This led Paul initially to Philippi and then on to Thessalonica. In that day, Thessalonica was the prominent seaport and capital city of the Roman province of ...read more

    based on 14 ratings
     | 32,595 views

    Many religious people - and even Christians - believe in some form of "karma". What's wrong with that? And why should we not accept that view of God?

    OPEN: This month we’re exploring “stupid things even Christians believe”, and this morning we’re going to be examining a theology that is seemingly common to every religion on earth. So many people, in so many religions, believe this particular theology because it seems to ...read more

    What Is Grace? Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Jun 1, 2015
     | 8,156 views

    The definition of God's grace is very simple: It is God's favor even when we do not deserve it. It's been given through Jesus Christ, we are called to live for Him after we receive it, and then we are to show it to others who need it as well.

    What is Grace? Grace Sermon Series, Part 1 Titus 2:11-14 - We have two baptisms after the service … A GREAT DAY! Introduction - The word translated "grace" in the New Testament comes from the Greek: -- It is the word “charis”, which means “favor, blessing, or ...read more

    The Unlimited Love Of God

    Contributed by James May on May 22, 2005
    based on 34 ratings
     | 29,244 views

    God’s Love is unlimited toward all people, but do we still have his blessings and his favor? God loves the sinner but we are required to serve him before we can truly experience his great love.

    THE UNLIMITED LOVE OF GOD By Pastor Jim May Scriptures used: Romans 5:8, James 1:17-18, 1 Samuel 9:2, and the primary source, 1 Samuel 12:19-25 If there is one thing that defines how God feels toward humanity, it’s His unlimited love.

    The Magi's Sign

    based on 1 rating
     | 7,746 views

    Christmas is also about the gifts we are to offer in return, not to earn God's favor, but like the magi it is worth a life’s journey to follow whatever destinations may be given us to worship and to give our treasures to our Savior and our King.

    Matthew 2:1-12 The Magi’s Sign 12/8/02 D. Marion Clark Introduction “Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are.” At least that is everyone’s concern about the star of Bethlehem. Of all the elements of the Christmas story, the visit of the magi who ...read more
