Knowing Who I Am. Series

Contributed by Brian Williams on Mar 7, 2024

What does it mean to be created in God’s image?

Sermon # 2 - Don't Miss Out On God's Presence Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 23, 2024

As Jonah fled from the presence of God, he had no idea as to the consequences he would face. We as a church too must be cautious in many ways so that we do no lose out on the awesome presence of God and His Holy Spirit.

We read in Jonah 1:3, “But Jonah rose up to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD. And he went down to Joppa. And he found a ship going to Tarshish. And he paid its fare, and went down into it, in order to go with them to Tarshish, away from the presence of the LORD.” (AFV) As we continue ...read more

Sermon # 11 - Our God Given Authority Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Apr 2, 2024

There is an authority that God has bestowed on us as His children which many of us are not aware of. If we can understand who we are in Christ, our lives will change and so will the situations around us.

We read in Numbers 23:24, “The nation of Israel is like a mighty lion: It doesn't rest until it has torn and devoured, until it has drunk the blood of those it has killed.” (GNB) Though this verse seems strange these are the words that were spoken by the Prophet Balaam about the people of ...read more

Thy Will Be Done In This Election Season

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 13, 2024

Each of these commandments, when obeyed, restores part of the order given to us in the beginning. When disobeyed, the natural consequences of that disobedience punish us, and often that leads to grave consequences.

Pre-Election Sermon In the beginning of human history, or pre-history, to be precise, God created a man and a woman, and, like He did with all other animate creatures, He ordered them to be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth.

Go! And Let The Spirit Tame Your Tongue James 3:7–12 Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on May 20, 2025

Words matter. In a world full of noise, God calls us to be voices of truth, grace, and love. James reminds us that the tongue—though small—holds immense power. Our words have the capacity to praise God or to curse people.

Go! And Let the Spirit Tame Your Tongue James 3:7-12 James 3:7-12 (NLT): "People can tame all kinds of animals, birds, reptiles, and fish, but no one can tame the tongue.
