Paul's Song Series

Contributed by Nickolas Kooi on Oct 12, 2017

We have heard the song "Don't worry, be happy!" and "Hakuna Matada." While their points are nice, they are easier said than done. How would Paul rewrite those lyrics? In Philippians four, we see his answer: don't be anxious, pray!

“Here’s a little song I wrote, you might want to sing it note for note. Don’t worry, be happy!” That line is from a famous song that we have all probably heard before. If you aren’t familiar with it, perhaps you might be more familiar with this more recent line sung by a warthog named Pumba and ...read more

The Marriage Of The Lamb Series

Contributed by Larry Grant on Sep 12, 2021

Years ago Pastor Alan Carr preached “A Marriage made in Heaven” where he talked about the marriage of the Lord Jesus as the catalyst for Heaven’s anthems of praise. Those in Heaven lift their voices in four “Hallelujah’s” (4 Specific praises to God)!

We have arrived at an exciting portion of the Bible. After the dark, dreary chapters from 6 to 18 these verses gleam with the glory of Heaven. We are going to talk about the marriage super of the Lamb. You see, for the church, the end times shape up like this: In the Rapture, we will be Caught Up; ...read more

31) Why Share The Gospel! Series

Contributed by Brandon Max on Feb 27, 2022

True believers have always been called to share the Gospel - but why? Today we look at four reasons through the Scriptures: 1) Jesus Did It; 2) The Disciples Did It; 3) Paul Did It; and 4) We Are Told To Do It.

"A Commitment-Filled Heart”

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Mar 12, 2023

The sad reality is that most of the world lives by phrase, “I want to keep my options open.” But nothing great in life happens without making commitments. Commitments give our lives direction and purpose. In this message we’ll look at the four “P’s” of commitment.

Looking All Around!

Contributed by Tony Abram on Jun 25, 2020

It is easy to get lost in a strange location. We need to look both ways before crossing when first time visiting a country that drives on the opposite side as your country. Walking with Jesus may require you looking four ways to have the blessings of God.

Elevate To The Next Level - "The People God Uses”

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Jun 29, 2025

One of the greatest needs in the church is for people who will not only serve, but who will also lead. It is about those who will invest themselves in the lives of others. I see four examples in Nehemiah’s first actions that separates him, not only as a leader but as a person that God uses.
