    Will You Come?

    Contributed by Pastor Steve Zimmerman on Jul 31, 2010
     | 3,368 views

    The beautiful old hymn "Will you come and follow Me" asks us all to consider our call from Christ, both as believers and as church families.

    Will You Follow? Last week we sang a hymn that we have sang before. Will You Come and Follow Me was one of the opening songs and I found myself lost in it for the first time. I ‘felt’ the words as I made my feeble attempt to sing. The words to this hymn are comprised of an ...read more

    The Insignificant Church

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,617 views

    Do we really make a difference in this world? Has the church become insignificant today? Churches have a high calling to honor God in their attitudes and actions.

    Hebrews 10:23-25 Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so ...read more

    we live in the Un-generation--they are unloved, untold, unchurched, unsaved

    Intro: years ago a new soft drink was introduced to America—it was called the UnCola—we know it better by the name 7-up. The ad campaign was to say that this was unlike any other cola, it was unique and different. Today, I would like to give you message simple entitled, “Reaching ...read more

    In This House Of Peacemaking Series

    based on 19 ratings
     | 24,647 views

    Peace is something the world needs to learn from the church. To be peacemakers we must teach all of God’s truth, we must model peaceful resolution, we must equip with real skills, and we must find peace with God through Christ.

    We entered the conference room in stony silence. For several weeks I had noticed the two of them – mature women, well-established, well-grounded in the Lord – but at odds with one another. They had been planning a special event, but had disagreed over the menu. One of them wanted an item dear to ...read more

    If I Could Put Time In A Bottle

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 5, 2026
     | 93 views

    Time is not random or meaningless; it unfolds under God’s sovereign care. Ecclesiastes 3 reminds us that life is lived in seasons, eternity is placed in the human heart, and meaning is found not in controlling time but in reverently offering it to God. What is given to Him is never wasted.

    There are moments in life when time feels generous. Days seem long. Weeks stretch out ahead of us. The future feels wide and open, almost indulgent. And then there are other moments when time suddenly feels thin — compressed, hurried, and slippery. One season we are wondering how to fill the hours, ...read more

    What will happen on the day of investigation for the believer? The purpose of this sermon series is to help Christians bear fruit that will pass the test. In this sermon we cover the fruit of love.

    (Mark 11:12-14) “On the next day, when they had left Bethany, He became hungry. 13 Seeing at a distance a fig tree in leaf, He went to see if perhaps He would find anything on it; and when He came to it, He found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.

    God’s love and glory empower us to shine with Christ’s light and purpose, overcoming darkness and reflecting His presence wherever we are.

    Some mornings feel like a fresh page; others feel like a fog. You wake up to headlines that bruise the heart, to to-do lists that shout instead of whisper, to memories that linger longer than you prefer. Yet into that very real world, God speaks a word that warms like sunlight through a window: You ...read more

    Faith is the foundation of God's message. Hope is the attitude and the focus,. .But love. Love is the action. When faith and hope are in line, you are free to love completely. And through this, we can truly "Seize the Day."

     | 4,575 views

    Any time people are special in our lives, we want to tell others about them.

    This is why we Christians tell others about the GOD OF THE BIBLE AND HIS LOVE AND GOODNESS. The reason some do not talk more about the God of the Bible than they do is because they really do not know Him well enough to talk about Him!
