Family + Series "raising Godly Kids" Series

Contributed by Dr. Jonathan Vorce on Nov 24, 2019

Some of us have had the privilege of raising Godly children. I don't take that lightly. I will also say that it didn't happen by accident. Here are a few things that I have learned along the way...

GENESIS 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

Harvest Is Bigger. God Does More.

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Oct 1, 2022

At our harvest festival we usually think of food, crops. But we need to expand our concept of harvest. We also need to recognize just how much God is involved in providing for us.

Today is our Harvest Thanksgiving service. It’s a time to thank God for the harvest. But what exactly are we thanking God for? I want to do two things today. The first thing is to encourage us to see harvest as something bigger than what the combine harvester picks up. The second thing is to ...read more

God Created Male And Female! Series

Contributed by Paul Clemente on Oct 6, 2022

If god didn't create male and female, He couldn't give the command to be fruitful and multiply; the world sinning against God today!

We read from the Gospel of John, In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men……. The Word ...read more

In The Image Of God

Contributed by Efren V. Narido on Apr 22, 2023

How do we understand that we are created in the image of God? What would be its effect on us, as we reflect God in His creation? Could it be that because we are created in His image or likeness, we could also have an idea why we were born?

“Then God said, ‘Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.’ So God created man in ...read more

Sermon # 32 - Reflecting God's Image Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Apr 27, 2023

We are created in the image of God, and when we choose to reflect His image through our lives we may be hated or even persecuted. Let’s see how God’s justice and righteousness will always prevail over every evil plot of the enemy.

We read in Genesis 1:26, And God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.” (KJV) Why was man ...read more

Lgbtq

Contributed by Lee Houston on Apr 28, 2023

I was inspired to write this sermon by Genesis 1:24-28 and by Reverend Calvin Robinson’s rebuttal in debate at Oxford Union February 15, 2023. He spoke of LGBTQ and its conflict with Christianity in a powerful loving way. I will quote him in this work.

LGBTQ: Lov is Love In Genesis 1:24-28, we read that “God said, ‘Let the earth bring forth living creatures of every kind: cattle and creeping things and wild animals of the earth of every kind.’ And it was so. God made the wild animals of the earth of every kind, the cattle of every kind, and ...read more

Patience In The Battle

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on May 16, 2023

One of the things that the Church, from my perspective, does not see how patient Satan is when it comes to seeing his destructive agenda manifest in our country and the world. This message examines looks at one example of this.

Let’s open this evening with Hebrews 10:35, the foundational verse for this message. It says, “For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.” I was raised in a small country church in Tennessee in the 1960s and 1970s. When I say small, I’d ...read more

Kingdom Keys - Ecclesiasties Series

Contributed by Robert Butler on May 22, 2023

The meaning of life is to enjoy the freedom and the simplicity of life given to us by God's grace through the realization of God’s absolute control to the point we trust in the Lord’s love.

So maybe you’ve heard it said, ‘read your bible’ so you tried and failed. Our hope as leaders is that all of us will pick up God’s word and come to understand the true nature of God. After all, the bible is God’s Word curated over centuries detailing His nature, His will, the meaning of life and ...read more

Image Is Everything Series

Contributed by Brian Bill on Nov 8, 2022

Because we are image-bearers of God, our purpose is to reflect, reveal, and represent Him.

A man once said, “I set my alarm to tell me when to get up, but some days I need something to tell me why I should get up.” In his new book, “Truth Changes Everything,” Jeff Meyers, president of Summit Ministries, where many of our students and young adults have received apologetics training, and ...read more

Gender Matters Series

Contributed by Brian Bill on Nov 15, 2022

In God’s good design, He created everyone as male or female.

I want to begin this message called, “Gender Matters” with some ground rules and foundational points. 1. The topic we will be addressing may not be appropriate for younger children as I will be using terms some may not be ready to hear. 2. Normally, I like hearing “amens” when I’m preaching but ...read more

God Is Love

Contributed by Stan Lobin on Nov 16, 2022

What do we do with the the fact that God is love and we were created in His image? How do we, in our brokenness, love an invisible God and those hard to love people that God has commanded us to love? God has a plan or a road map for us to follow to make us more loving.

God is love! Of course all Christians should have heard that phrase and believe that it is true because we are told that God is love in the Bible. 1 John 4:7-21 NASB 7 Beloved, let’s love one another; for love is from God, and everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8 The one who ...read more

Genesis Chapter One Series

Contributed by Tom Shepard on Nov 19, 2022

These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter One. In his work, "What does every Bible chapter say..." John Hunt gives an overview of each chapter of the Bible. It is my intention to do the same thing here.

GENESIS CHAPTER ONE OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is creation of all the world and everything we know in the universe. Joseph Benson’s Commentary (1857) Says: We have three things in this chapter: (1) A general idea of the work of creation, Genesis 1:1-2. (2) A particular ...read more
