    Clean Hands And Defiled Hearts Series

    I fear too often we major on the minor things and neglect the greater aspects of our faith and service unto the Lord. Jesus confronted the hypocrisy and neglect of the Pharisees. This passage reveals similarities to the modern church.

    Clean Hands and Defiled Hearts Mark 7: 1-23 It has been a while since we’ve heard from the scribes and Pharisees, but they were a continual nuisance to the Lord as He ministered among the people. It appears they followed Jesus as often as they could, seeking any means to accuse Him and discredit ...read more

    Faith Promise

     | 8,040 views

    This is a sermon but realistically it is more of a framework that could be used for a FP service in your church. FP is giving to missions on a weekly/monthly basis that makes giving above tithes more systematic and keeps missions in the forefront.

    Please open your Bibles to Romans 10:9-15 which we will read in a few minutes. (You can insert your own intro here. this is what I used) [Ten days ago when our guest speakers were here for our Faith Promise service things got mixed up and we ended up not making the presentation for Faith Promise ...read more

    Don't look at the big setback, see the big picture. Don't look at the big self, see the works of God. Don't look at the big things, listen to the voice of God.

    Elijah had a great victory against the false prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel. • He challenged the 450 prophets to call on their god to bring down fire and burn up the sacrifice. They failed, after a whole day of shouting. • At the time of the evening sacrifice, Elijah repaired the altar of the ...read more

    How do you see Jesus at this Christmas season? Is he still a tiny baby in the manger or is He the person that God has given a Name above every Name. How you see him determines how you receive from Him.

    Christmas Baby Jesus Valley Grove words 1629 December 1, 2017 Philippians 2:9-11 In the movie Talledega Nights the race car driver Ricky Bobby asks the blessing over a family meal.

    Message for a Deacon Ordination Service - Why deacons?

    Acts 6:1–4 (NKJV) Brother Sharber, our former pastor, a number of years ago was explaining to me the difference between the pastor and the deacon. Both are charged with doing good.

     | 9,093 views

    John gives us three important lessons from his testimony: 1. We are not the focus of the witness; 2. We are not the light of the world; and, 3. We proclaim (for others) our own belief in Jesus. Before we can ever grow, we must realize these first!

    The Forerunner to the Messiah John 1:14-28 Introduction - The gospel of John screams of the faith that we should have in Christ -- It is the clearest example of living life FOR the one who redeemed you and I - If we can learn to love like Jesus’, we can bring others to Him -- Re: We ...read more

    It is imperative that believers maintain the wonder and awe of Christ and salvation in Him. As we ponder His abundant grace, we are compelled to live for Him, in a way that pleases Him.

    Series: Saved, Settled, and Sanctified The Wonder of it All 1 Peter 1: 18-23 We have considered much in the past few weeks.

    Defined And Delivered In Love Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 23, 2016
     | 7,540 views

    If only one word could be used to describe you or your church, what would it be? As believers, many Christian attributes come to mind, but love would rank at the top. The world needs to see a church defined by love.

    Defined and Delivered in Love 1 John 4: 7-10 Our text this evening again deals with the continuing theme of love John has presented throughout this epistle. In fact, the remaining verses of this chapter deal with love. John was originally known as one of the “sons of thunder,” but ...read more

    Absolute God

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jul 27, 2016
     | 4,789 views

    Many in this world do not believe in any idea that is absolute. Jesus was NOT one of those. Jesus declared the Gospel in absolute terms with no "wiggle room" built in. Thank you, Jesus, for such a glorious gift!

    John 14:1-14 As we look up this Scripture we are (hopefully) remembering some of the sermon from last week when we saw that: Jesus lived His life with the Father ever before His face And that we have a natural inclination to take our eyes off of Jesus and look at the things of this world which ...read more
