    Finding A Goal Worth Pursuing

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Nov 23, 2021
     | 3,177 views

    Finding your purpose, enjoying your relationship with God, and sharing his goodness with others is living the dream. Living one day like that is better than a thousand days away from God. It is a joy to serve and please God.

    Sermon: Finding A Goal Worth Pursuing Psalms 84:1 How lovely is Your dwelling place, O Lord of Hosts!2 My soul longs, yes, even faints for the courts of the Lord; my heart and my body cry out for the living God. 3 Yes, the sparrow has found a home and the swallow a nest for herself, where she ...read more

    Real Talk - Pt. 5 - Hacksaw Ridge Series

    Movies + Pop Corn + Church = Reel Talk

    Reel Talk Pt. 5 - Hacksaw Ridge Luke 15 is unique. It is probably no more than a 20 or 30 minute slot of time in Jesus' life. However, it stands out against all other moments when Jesus speaks because the entire exchange is simply stories. Stories to respond to the religious folks and their anger ...read more

    A Simple Prayer For Complicated Times

     | 6,273 views

    In a culture that wants to hear and tell lies and are obsessed with who has what and how much they have, this prayer is a breath of fresh air. Our culture is very self-centered but Agur's prayer is God-centered.

    Lessons From The Prayer of Agur Proverbs 30:7-9 Introduction: In recent years a lot of public attention has been focused on prayer. Our courts have banned prayer from public schools, public functions, and public display. And as we've seen in protest, regardless of opposition, it hasn't ...read more

    A Quieted Soul

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 17, 2025
     | 51 views

    Psalm 131 invites restless hearts into humility and hope—trusting God’s presence over answers, like a weaned child content with mother.

    It’s easy to worry. Anxiety is normal. Fear is expected. There’s plenty to be anxious about. I once heard a guy on the radio say, “Anyone who doesn’t have high blood pressure these days just isn’t paying attention.” And maybe he’s right—because we live in a world wound tight with hurry and ...read more

    The Cure For Want

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 6, 2025
     | 30 views

    The Sabbath celebrates God’s sufficiency; covetousness denies it. Creation, redemption, and completion all declare one truth—Christ has provided everything we need.

    Introduction The Sabbath has always been God’s weekly reminder that enough is enough. It whispers through the quiet hours: You can stop striving now; you already have Me. And yet, in a world that never stops chasing more — more success, more recognition, more possessions, more happiness — it’s ...read more

    The Evidence Of The Existence Of God Is The Actions Of Godly Men And Women.

    As we examine the actions of Joshua and the nation of Israel throughout the sixth chapter of the book of Joshua, God further reveals His divine strategy for the success of those chosen by Him.

    Submitting to God or the way of Jesus is a key requirement in our development into the men and women of God. Submitting to God cultivates our oneness with God. Once we submit to the will of God by first loving God mentally, physically, and spiritually, God will empower us to do His will. From ...read more

    Choosing Your Attitude

     | 15,893 views

    Everyone acknowledges that a bad attitude stinks. We don’t even need to discuss about how and why to have a sick attitude … it comes so natural because naturally we are born with it … though we are born in sin but we have a choice to choose our attitude.

    A businessman read a little book entitled “Men of God.”

    He was so moved that he was determined to secure copies for all of his employees. • He wired the publisher in Chicago: “Send 125 copies of ‘Men of God.’” • The publisher wired back, “Chicago is out of ‘Men of God” they are hard to find.

    Our culture heavily promotes physical training. This morning, you will be encouraged to get involved in spiritual training.

    How do you "win from within"? 1 Timothy 4:7-8: 7 Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives’ tales; rather, train yourself to be godly. 8 For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to ...read more

    The Content, the Condition, and the Consequences of a fruitful vineyard.

    What Does it Mean That Jesus Is the True Vine? John 15:1-17 In the book of John, Jesus says “I AM” seven times. Seven is the number of completeness, of spiritual perfection. They are: I AM THE BREAD OF LIFE – (John 6:35) I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD – (John 8:12) I AM THE DOOR – (John 10:7, 9) I ...read more

    Do we really understand what "The Fear of the LORD" truly means? JESUS was a “friend of sinners”, and HE told us to call upon the Almighty as "Abba, FATHER". So what is this "Fear of the LORD?"

    "Sharing Our Wealth"

    Contributed by David Henderson on Dec 22, 2015

    The apostle Paul had something to say about that in a letter he wrote to a young preacher named Timothy. He told Timothy that we should be content with what God has given us. Happiness. Contentment.

    "Sharing Our Wealth" Be content with what God has given you and share his blessings with others. Scripture: 1 Timothy 6:6-8 6 Yet true godliness with contentment is itself great wealth. 7 After all, we brought nothing with us when we came into the world, and we can’t take anything with us ...read more
