Sermon # 33 - Bear Fruit Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jul 3, 2025

God’s purpose for every one of us who are part of His body the church, is that we bear much fruit. Sin and rebellion will prevent us from being fruitful. Let’s not take God’s grace for granted but repent of every sin so we can bear good fruit as God desires of us.

Between Two Advents (Revelation 20) Series

Contributed by James Jackson on Nov 30, 2025

Revelation 20 speaks to Christians living in the “in-between”—after Christ’s first coming but before His return. In the tension of the middle, we find hope: Jesus wins, evil ends, and our future is secure.

We come into worship this morning with what may be a once-in-a-lifetime alignment of circumstances, at least as far as a church calendar goes. It’s the first Sunday of Advent, when we begin focusing on Jesus’ coming into the world. It’s ...read more
