Elevate To The Next Level - "Living God’s Vision”

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Jan 11, 2026

God put us on this earth for a reason. Therefore, God has a vision for our lives and wants to use us for His purpose, which is far beyond anything any of us could ever imagine. As we look at Joshua chapter one, there are four things we need to do if we desire to be used by God.

Contributed by Charles Wilkerson on Nov 14, 2003

Hear I Am Series

Contributed by Troy Borst on Jul 29, 2015

How are we supposed to know when God is speaking to us? How do we know when we are hearing from God or it is an idea from our own brain? 1 Sam 3 has four essential truths of guidance for us in answering this very important topic of hearing God’s voice.

"I Will Never Leave You Nor Forsake You!”

Contributed by John Gaston on Apr 10, 2019

We can be assured of God's provision and of His love because He promised with a five-fold negative that He would never leave us nor forsake us. Four different people in Scripture received this promise from God, so we can see God's faithfulness to them.

The King Has Come Series

Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Dec 24, 2021

Since the King has Come and is coming again, the Apostle Paul presents four aspects of the Father’s exaltation of the Son: 1) The source (Philippians 2:9a), 2) The title (Philippians 2:9b), 3) The response (Philippians 2:10–11a), and 4) The purpose (Philippians 2:11b).

Philippians 2:9–11. 9 Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, 10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. ...read more

“The woman with an issue of blood” is told in three of the four gospels: Matthew, Mark and Luke. Twelve years, many physicians and much expense, still her condition grew worse. By faith, she knew Jesus could heal her. Even if she just touched the hem of his garment, she knew she would be whole.

The Stubborn Evangelist Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on May 24, 2021

This short story is one where Jonah is in flight; it’s also one where God is in pursuit. Jonah’s life is really one of a boomerang for he ends up in the place that ran from in the beginning. For four chapters we’ll witness Jonah’s futile flight as well as God’s persistent pursuit.

Note: The entire book of Jonah is read before I preach. Today we launch a new four part series entitled Jonah: The Stubborn Evangelist. And it is coming at just the right time for our church (more on the timing in just a moment). Most only know it as an amusing story about a prophet and a “whale.” ...read more
