    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 9, 2021
     | 4,122 views

    Think about your life for a moment. Have you missed an opportunity you regret? Do you think you are still on “Plan A” for your life? For many in the room with any years of experience, you feel like your closer to plan "ZZ" rather than plan "A."

    [Scripture read before this sermon] 20 When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small tempest lay on us, all hope of our being saved was at last abandoned. 21 Since they had been without food for a long time, Paul stood up among them and said, “Men, you should have listened to me ...read more

  • Why The Lord Withdraws

    Sometimes we can become prideful and overconfident in our own abilities, which is sin; and so, God will hide His face from us (Isaiah 59:2). The Lord will hide from us in order to gain our attention and cause us to cling to Him.

    One day a mother was out shopping with her son. Every time she took him shopping with her she couldn’t keep him by her side. As soon as she would turn her back, the boy would wander off somewhere, though keeping his mother in sight the entire time. She would then have to go and retrieve him. ...read more

  • Sin Leading Unto Death

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 9, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,876 views

    The Bible tells us that there is a sin that leads unto death - one single sin - and it might not be what we expect. In fact, this one disqualifying sin will exclude us from ever going to heaven and receiving eternal life. So, what is this sin?

    If there was a crime worthy of death, what would it be? Would it be murder, rape, spouse abuse, adultery, theft, gambling, or perhaps lying? Many of us would say that murder is worthy of the death penalty; and if any of us had a child that were raped, we would probably believe the person who ...read more

    Mt Zion was a comforting security for the pilgrims. It means our stability too. Wickedness rules our nations but we must uphold the scepter of righteousness and do good to one another for God does good for us. Contrast of good and evil.

    Because we live in a fallen world, there will be times in our life when we will have to endure trials and difficulty. Job went through such a time; however, he had Someone to stand in his defense. Job called Him his Redeemer.

    I want to share with you this evening a message from the book of Job. It is a message that gives hope to each of us who are struggling with sin, whether it be the consequences of sin in this life, or the consequences of sin that we must face in the Day of Judgment.

    Several Christians were going from door to door on visitation in the Bahamas. Most of the people in the area were very cordial to them. However, one place was different.

    They came to a home and saw one of the servants working in the yard. They began to witness to him and he professed to be a Christian, and from all indications, his life reflected that he was. In fact, he was so excited about the Lord that he wanted those Christians to talk to his employer about ...read more

     | 1,230 views

    Injustice is everywhere and how does that affect the Christian? Faith must be placed in God, and this Psalm is exploring that. We are not to fear. The Psalm takes up redemption then moves to ultimate death for all when we take nothing with us. God redeems from the power of hell.

    I didn't want to preach this sermon about Sarah's faith... but read the sermon to find out what I learned.

    Children’s story: Do you love your mommy? She loves you too. In fact, I don’t think she could imagine a life without you. Without you, she’d be very sad.

  • This Way Out

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Apr 28, 2023
     | 1,252 views

    We are imprisoned by sin in exactly the same way that we are imprisoned by gravity. We are prisoners of our own humanity, and it’s a life sentence with no time off for good behavior.
