Medical Missions Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 27, 2021

People have to be saved before they can be saved. That is, they have to be delivered from temporal death in order to be delivered from eternal death.

Everyone of us lives with a doctor, and to make it even better the doctor we live with can write prescriptions and get the medicine delivered immediately. If you think you don't take drugs, it is only because you do not know what your doctor is doing. Your doctor is your brain. I have had ...read more

The Church Is Missional Series

Contributed by Chuck Gohn on Jul 5, 2022

The focus of this sermon is that the church not only is about the sending short and long-term missionaries, but that the Church exists for missions and that every Christian is a missionary.

Commissioned For Missions

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 12, 2022

Commissioning Service: This message explores a significant ministry, as it looks at the "missionary call." To be discussed is the role played by God, and also the commitment required of the home church in the missionary’s support.

Compared to the larger ...read more
