Communion

Contributed by Steve Pearman on May 15, 2017

Communion is something we do in church often; yet, in the routine, we can forget its roots.

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Jan 8, 2018

Celebrating the birth of Jesus is appropriate and good, but we must not forget the life-altering habits that should follow!

Christmas Overflow (Luke 2:17-20) Unlike some of my previous Luke 2 sermons, this focuses primarily upon verses 17-20. 1.

Gods Own Cause

Contributed by Charles Jones on Jan 31, 2022

When we feel overwhelmed by trouble and despair, it is easy to forget what we know about God.

Test 2: Preference Test Series

Contributed by Jim Drake on Oct 8, 2007

When we glory in the status of people, we forget how far we all fall short of the glory of God. The only thing we can glory in is the imputed righteousness of Christ. We forget that when we don’t treat people right.

Before It’s Too Late

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Feb 15, 2017

We can easily forget the importance of time in our lives and how a single moment in time can change our lives for eternity. We can become overwhelmed by the fast pace of our lives and the world forgetting that the next world is just a breath away.

Before it’s too Late Luke 12:54-59 New International Version (NIV) 54 He said to the crowd: “When you see a cloud rising in the west, immediately you say, ‘It’s going to rain,’ and it does. And when the south wind blows, you say, ‘It’s going to be hot,’ and it is. Hypocrites! You know how to ...read more

God Rewards At The Perfect Time

Contributed by Anitha Jabastion on Sep 4, 2020

God knows the moment when His blessing will have the greatest impact in our lives. God doesn’t forget all that we do for Him, He doesn’t forget what he has promised us. He waits for the perfect time!

Realistic Reminders Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Nov 17, 2020

We need reminders to keep us realistic about human social behavior, about our tendency to accommodate our own sin, and about the nature of government leaders.

Realistic Reminders (Proverbs 28:11-16) 1. Everyone is forgetful at times. The difference is often this: some people remember they are absent-minded, others forget they are absent-minded. 2. One of my favorite original jokes is also true: I read a book about how to remember, but forgot what it ...read more

Part 1 - Genesis 16:1-6 - Forget It! I'll Do It Myself! Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Apr 3, 2010

In my arrogance and indignation I have said in effect, "FORGET IT LORD, I'LL DO IT MYSELF!" GOD'S TIMETABLE IS OFTEN NOT MY TIMETABLE. It is not Him that needs to change.

Part 1 - Genesis 16:1-6 - FORGET IT! I'LL DO IT MYSELF! I remember seeing some shorts to a movie once where a millionaire agrees to pay a couple a million dollars if the wife will sleep with him for one night. What would you do?

Forgiveness- What Do We Carry And What Do We Let Go?

Contributed by Simon Harrison on Apr 4, 2001

Forgiveness is not about accepting that something wrong is somehow right, or trying to forget it: a prayerful reflection on Matthew 18.

Today I would like to say a few words about things in our lives that we carry and things that we let go. I find today’s Gospel reading one of the most challenging in the Bible. With any apology, Jesus talks quite bluntly about the forgiveness God offers to us, and the expectation God has of us, as ...read more
