     | 3,624 views

    In this final "one another" from our "One Anothering" series, we explore what it means to spur one another on toward love and good deeds. One of the challenging sides of loving one another, is our duty to provoke and challenge each other to be all that God has called us to.

    The Prayer Of Gethsemane Series

    Contributed by Chris Anderson on Mar 10, 2023

     | 4,540 views

    Jesus clearly knew God’s will, and yet he had intense angst and the deep feeling of despair that came from actually obeying God’s will. This sermon is intended to equip you for those moments where DOING God’s will, is really really hard.

    If you’ve been around Christian circles for any length of time, there is a considerable amount of frustration in trying to determine God’s will. For some, it’s because we love the Lord and want to please him, so we want to make sure we’re making right choices that would honor him. But for others, ...read more

    Cross Purposes 3: Mercy And Justice Series

    Contributed by Vic Folkert on Dec 13, 2019
     | 4,181 views

    Why can't God ignore or excuse sin? Sacrifice of atonement (OT background). Righteousness through faith. God is "just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus."

    CROSS PURPOSES 3: Mercy and Justice Crosses are everywhere: Hanging on chains around people’s necks. Tattooed on people’s bodies. Surrounded by artificial flowers along the side of the road, where an accidental death occurred. Lined up in cemeteries, or on grave markers. Towering over churches, ...read more

    Love: The Reason It's Most Important

    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Dec 30, 2019
     | 7,606 views

    This message discusses why love is most important. God is a God of love and He created us to give love and receive love. In this message you will see that our physical hearts enables us to do both.

    Love: The Reason It’s Most Important Scripture: I Cor. 13; Mark 12:30-31; 1 Peter 4:8; 1 John 4:16-19 Introduction Do you know that the heart is the first functional organ to develop in a fetus and beats spontaneously by week 4 of development?

    Breaking down the barriers of self, and the anguish of curing the soul-sickness of loneliness and disappointment.

    It is a wonderful and joyous thing to experience God and the supernatural gifting of His anointing and power. However, the Christian life is more than just feelings, emotions, and experience - it is trusting God in EVERY circumstance – no matter what! I have always been a ‘car guy.’ I have ...read more

    Gaal’s Call To Rebellion Series

     | 2,119 views

    Gaal’s aim was not to regain Shechem's liberty, but instead, to change their tyrant: "O that this people were under my hand! What I would do!—I would remove Abimelech from his kingly office, and rid Shechem of him, and all the country round about, and indeed remove him out of the world.

    Chapter 41 Gaal’s Call to Rebellion [Judges 9.26-9.29] Scripture: Judges 9:26-29 (KJV) 26 And Gaal the son of Ebed came with his brethren, and went over to Shechem: and the men of Shechem put their confidence in him. 27 And they went out into the fields, and gathered their vineyards, and ...read more

    Christmas Significa Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Jul 11, 2021
     | 2,887 views

    The real beauty and power of Christmas is how it is as mundane as it is holy, secular as it is sacred, temporal as it is eternal, physical as it is spiritual, worldly as it is heavenly … and this is by design.

    Today’s scripture reading reminds me of Christmas hymns like “Angles We Have Heard on High” in which the angels “sweetly sing o’er the plans” (UMH, verse 1; p.238) or “Hark! the Herald Angels Sing” … “glory to the newborn King” (UMH, verse 1; p. 240). Songs like these beautifully capture the drama ...read more
