    There’s a moment in the history of Israel where they felt they had no hope. They believed in God, but they didn’t believe God could fix their situation. Have you ever been there? Have you been in those moments? You believe in GOD, YOU BELIEVE IN THE BIBLE

    This message reveals the great grace, mercy, and love of God extended to the lost sinner. But only those willing to realize their sinful condition, and repent from the heart can be true recipients of the Father’s forgiveness and restoration.

    The Path Of A Prodigal Text: Luke 15: 11-24 Intro: The passage before us today is a parable of Jesus that beautifully illustrates the grace, mercy and love of God toward lost sinners, and the joy their repentance and salvation gives Him. This parable is the last of three stories Jesus used to ...read more

    We focus on their debt to us, instead of our debt to God!!

    Matthew 18:21-35-Then Peter came to Him and said, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?” Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven. Therefore the kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who wanted to ...read more

    Abram knew that things went haywire in Egypt and that he got it wrong. At this altar there is real indication of REPENTANCE as he CALLS UPON THE NAME OF THE LORD. We don't have any recorded words of this prayer, but we see it his WORDS AND ACTIONS towards

    This is where He HEALS A PARALYSED MAN. Why does Jesus heal this paralysed man then, but doesn't heal Joni now? Joni is paralysed too. I can only say that Joni has been used of God all around the world to bring many people to Christ. Could God heal her?

    Part 1 - Matthew 9:1-8 - LORD, HEAL THE PARALYSIS OF MY HEART! I remember being invited to hear Joni Earekson Tada speak many years ago - a beautiful Christian woman who was paralysed from the neck down after a diving incident. When she spoke, the presence of God filled the room. In Matthew 9:1, ...read more

    Blessed Are The Picker Uppers Series

    Contributed by David Swanger on Feb 6, 2013
     | 3,985 views

    We must be before we do. Our Father who is "rich in mercy" expectes as much of His children and promises the same merciful treatment to them as they extend to others.

    Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. A Christian must be something before he can do something. One bankrupt in spirit, broken with grief, submissive to God’s leading, and living with an insa¬tiable hunger for righteousness is now ready and able to live out the life he has ...read more

    Many skeptics use Christian hypocrites as an excuse for rejecting Christ. In this sermon, we make the distinction between sinners and hypocrites. Everyone in church is a sinner, but not everyone is a hypocrite.

    Introduction: A. One day Robert Redford, the famous actor, was walking through a hotel lobby, when a woman recognized him and ran over to him. 1. With great excitement, she gushed, “Are you the real Robert Redford?” 2. As the doors of the elevator closed, he replied, “Only when ...read more

    Resentment is a real part of our lives that must be recognized and dealt with in God honoring ways.

    Welcome everyone and thank guests for joining us. I want to warn all of you right up front that my message today is a little longer than usual so I pray you will settle in and let God speak to you. Do you believe God is sovereign?

    Hate is a mental condition that harms the mind, body and spirit, which if allowed to remain will also destroy our relationship with God.

    Introduction The Hatfield and McCoy feud was recently on TV; this is one of the saddest things I have ever watched. It is so wrong for people to hate people just because of their name or because of something they have done in the past. When Christians hate people they are in direct violation of ...read more

    Only as we deal with our past can we move ahead into God’s bright future.

    No, dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it, but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead (Philippians 3:13-14 NLT). I have a past. My journey back to God began with a pack of cigarettes and an offer to teach a Sunday School class. I was saved ...read more
