    My Friend Jesus

    Contributed by C. Scott Ghan on Dec 30, 2013
     | 8,872 views

    I've tried to describe the believers relationship with Jesus in testimony style. "Let me tell you about my fiend Jesus...Let me tell you what He has done for me..."

    I started with Chris Jordan's sermon: i-Pray #3: What a Friend we Have in Jesus. Scripture is the same, maybe a phrase here and there, more so at the beginning. But this is a different sermon. TITLE: My Friend Jesus 12-30-2013 TEXT: Romans 5:8-11 8 But God showed his great love for us by ...read more

    The Word, Love & Work Of God

    Contributed by Rev. Matthew Parker on Jan 19, 2014
     | 7,145 views

    Jesus is the Foundation of the Christian life. Upon that foundation there are three key pillars that enable to live the abundant life that Christ wants for us: God's Word, God's love and Grace, and our active engagement in doing the work of God.

    Today we want to take an opportunity to think about strengthening and making firm the foundation of our lives. The parable that was just read talks about the importance of building on a sure foundation. If life was always calm, if there were no storms, if troubles never came our way, then perhaps ...read more

    Every day at the beach isn't a day at the beach, this message looks at how Jesus wants to be the master of our lives

    It was a dark and stormy night. I’ve always wanted to start a story like that. The wind howled blowing the top off the breakers before they crashed back into the troughs below. The darkness was broken by momentary streaks of light as the clouds raced across the face of the full moon. ...read more

    Do You Have A Servant’s Heart To Use Your Spiritual Gifts?

     | 6,144 views

    Use your gifts!

    1 Timothy 4:14: “Do not neglect the gift that is in you.” Using our gifts to serve God and serve others is something that goes against our natural desire for popularity, influence, and prominence.

     | 7,615 views

    How often do men fail to search out God simply because they only see him as a God of judgment, represented in the Silvert! Yet, he desires us to find him, and when we do we find Gold - that gold that represents all things of our Good God!

    We are going to get into the most essential but most overlooked aspects of our lives; the spiritual side of Christianity. Spiritual warfare, spiritual aspects of eternity, the supernatural and what God shows us through His word and His Holy Spirit about our destiny.

    Comfort says, “If I did not tell you these things it would be like a doctor not telling you that you have cancer and you would die a slow and painful death unaware of your true circumstances.” Many people disregard spiritual warfare, spiritual influence and the unseen realms altogether ...read more
