    How To Grow God's Kingdom

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Jul 22, 2015
     | 7,113 views

    We, like the disciples, are expected to bear fruit by spreading the seeds of faith-namely, the Good News of salvation-and nurture it as best we can. Then, we have to let God go to work. God will eventually reap the harvest and save those who hear His word

    The Gospel reading from Mark 4:21-34 is a series of parables about the kingdom of God. Jesus used parables to explain the kingdom because the kingdom is so vast that our limited human minds can't understand it on our own. Jesus used these parables to explain the kingdom in terms that we, the ...read more

    The Only God, The First And The Last Series

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Aug 7, 2022
     | 2,260 views

    It’s foolish to put our confidence in what we own, or in what we look like, or in the people we love. All these good things only spring from the Lord God, the overflowing fountain. And none of these things can save or redeem, for God alone is the First and the Last.

    One of my favourite Bible stories is in 1 Kings 18. That’s the chapter where God has a showdown with Baal, a dramatic contest on the top of Mount Carmel. You remember how Elijah challenges the prophets of Baal to a competition. ‘Come up the mountain,’ he said. ‘Bring two oxen for sacrifice, wood to ...read more

    Samson Part 1 Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Sep 2, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,805 views

    Samson had everything going for him: supportive, godly parents, a good home environment, and blessing from God. So why did he decide to walk a path of selfishness and what does that say to us?

    Samson is a puzzling character. He had great successes for the nation of Israel but personally was a total failure. He was as weak morally and spiritually as he was strong physically. Why the Lord ever used him is beyond me and why his story is just so interesting and compelling floors me. I think ...read more

    Why God Allows Bad Things To Happen

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Dec 20, 2015
     | 8,720 views

    We must remember that when bad things happen, God is in control. He loves us and wants us to be saved. He allows events for his good purpose.

    An old church building needed remodeling, so during his sermon the minister made an impassioned plea and looked directly at the richest man in town. At the end of the sermon, the rich man stood up and said, “Pastor, I will contribute $1,000.00” Just then plaster fell from the ceiling ...read more

    Is Jesus At The Center Of All You Do And Think

    Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Apr 22, 2014
     | 7,501 views

    You can choose to humble yourself, though it's not an easy thing to do, I know, and God will involve you in what He's doing; God wants to involve you in what He's doing...but, it's always on His terms not yours.

    In Luke 10 Jesus tells one of his most famous stories. If you went to Sunday School or VBS when you were a child then you're familiar with this story. The story begins with a Jewish man walking from Jerusalem to Jericho when he is attacked, robbed and left for dead on the side of the road. Two ...read more

     | 10,127 views

    This message is intended to encourage ministers who are afraid of losing what is good or who are burdened by what is bad.

    I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the sharing of his sufferings by becoming like him in his death, 11if somehow I may attain the resurrection from the dead. 12Not that I have already obtained this or have already reached the goal; but I press on to make it my own, because ...read more

    Gratitude is good, but when your attitude is not good you cannot show gratitude. Praising God and confessing His awesomeness is our means of expressing our gratitude to Him.

    SPIRITUAL GROWTH ENHANCERS My mouth is filled with your praise, declaring your splendour all day long.

    The Rightness Of Divine Self-Promotion Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Nov 1, 2021
     | 3,998 views

    While it is wrong and inappropriate for us to make it all about us and to devote our lives to self-promotion, it is altogether right and good to make it all about God and for God to be engaged in divine self-promotion.

    A. One day a little boy was overheard talking to himself as he strutted on to the baseball diamond wearing his baseball cap and toting a ball and bat, “I’m the greatest hitter in the world,” he announced. 1. Then, he tossed the ball into the air, swung at it, and missed. 2. “Strike One!” he ...read more
