    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jul 8, 2025
     | 214 views

    Adam and Eve had no concept, then, of what a curse would be in reality; what labour pains would be in childbirth; or what hard work and toil would involve in practice. They were condemned and expelled. Jesus was condemned for us and now – justification and pardon.

    What You Have Defines Your Worth Series

    Contributed by Duane Wente on Jul 14, 2025
     | 830 views

    The world says your value is measured by what you own—status, wealth, and accomplishments. But God says your worth is found in who you are (your character) and whose you are (your identity in Christ). We are not defined by what we accumulate, but by our foundation in Him.

    ### **Introduction:*** This morning, we are continuing our series “Lies the World Tells,” and today we are going after a big one. But before we dive into Scripture, I want to start by letting someone else do the talking. You see, there is a video that’s been floating around for years — some of ...read more

    What The World Really Needs Now

    Contributed by Melvin Maughmer, Jr. on Nov 4, 2024
     | 2,389 views

    What the world needs now is for the Church to be what God intended for it to be. We need to walk circumspectly, carefully and discreetly making sure our steps are order by the Lord, that He is leading and guiding us and that we are not just wandering aimlessly through this world.

    What the World Really Needs By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. OPENING:- The other week I spoke about the Evangelical preacher that so-called rebuked the Black church for endorsing and voting for Kamala Harris and by now I am sure you know it was Donnie Swaggart that made the statement and people ...read more

    Protecting The Saints From Scams

    Being aware of the tactics of financial scammers can help protect us from them, but we are also protected by the spiritual practices of faith, contentment, and humility.

    A. Today’s sermon is a unique one in that it is part sermon and part public service announcement. 1. I have titled the sermon: “Protecting the Saints from Scams.” 2. And that’s what I hope to do in today’s sermon – protect our church family from financial exploitation. 3. Our deacon of benevolence ...read more

    While a turducken is not necessary for our physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual health (and in many ways is probably bad for your physical health), giving thanks is necessary for physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual health. Make time to be thankful.

    The Divided Mind

    Contributed by Gordon Brownlee on Nov 20, 2024
     | 576 views

    We cultivate learned responses in life that we call upon as the need arises. This is a gift from God and represents the way in which we become productive people. However this same process also teaches us how to be a casualty of life. Renewing the mind is then found at the Cross of Christ.

    Sermon # 27 - Heed God's Warnings Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 633 views

    God’s message through the Prophet Jonah was one of warning to the people of Nineveh to repent of their sinful ways. The call of God all through the bible is for people to repent and turn back to Him. Genuine repentance alone can bring genuine change that will please God and bless others.

    We read in Jonah 3:3-4, “So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word of the LORD. Now Nineveh was an exceeding great city, of three days' journey. And Jonah began to enter into the city a day's journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be ...read more

    Just as farmers confidently expect a bountiful harvest from the seeds they plant, believers should result from their faith, whether speaking life-giving words or generously supporting God’s work. While seeds may take time to grow, patience is crucial in witnessing the abundant fruits of our labor.
