God Gives The Growth, Not Church Leaders

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Sep 16, 2006

A short homily given at a mid week communion service, encouraging us to fix our eyes on Jesus and not upon leaders, forms of worship or types of evangelism. It’s all about Jesus!

Blessed Are Those Who Mourn Series

Contributed by Eloy Gonzalez on Mar 7, 2004

Lent Mid-Week 2: When death comes close, it is painful. The faithful mourn. Even in this, the Lord tells us, we are blessed because He will draw close to bring comfort.

It is an emotional reaction based on outward circumstances. But ‘blessed’ in the Beatitudes refers to much more. It speaks to ...read more

Who Is Afraid Of New Beginnings?

Contributed by Stan Simonik on Nov 19, 2005

When changes come, we will not fear but put our faith to work and trust in the Lord. I preached this sermon on Reformation Sunday, a week after the Senior Pastor left to take another assignment.

Upgrade To First Class I Series

Contributed by Blake Inscore on Sep 1, 2008

The thought that occurred to me this week is that we as believers are often satisfied flying “coach” when our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ died and rose again to offer us a “first class” ticket.

When we began two weeks ago we saw that the key to unity within the Body of Christ is love. That is why Paul said in Colossians 3:14—“Above all, put on love—the perfect bond of unity.” ...read more
