Sermons on Gone Too Far:

The Scale Of The Almighty

Contributed by Daniel Olukoya on Apr 9, 2009

“You may decide to call yourself a pastor or an apostle or an evangelist, but in the book of God, which is the only book that matters, He writes that you are a messenger.” It is not what you call yourself that matters; it is what God calls you.

THE SCALE OF THE ALMIGHTY Dr. D. K. Olukoya It is one thing to call yourself something; it is another thing for God to call you something. One of our elders in the Lord said, “You may decide to call yourself a pastor or an apostle or an evangelist, but in the book of God, which is the only book ...read more

What The World Needs Now

Contributed by Bruce Ferris on Aug 19, 2005

A famous lyric from a 1965 Burt Bacharach song says, “What the world needs now is love, sweet love. It’s the only thing that there’s just too little of; what the world needs now is love, sweet love; No, not just for some, but for everyone.” Thirty-nin

Settled In Complacency

Contributed by Mark Roper on Nov 20, 2007

Sometimes Christians entertain very foolish and dangerous thoughts such as; Don’t get too concerned, keep things as they are, let someone else take care of it, set back, relax, and see what is going on. After all God will work things for us, or don’t g

Earthen Treasure Series

Contributed by Guy Mcgraw on Feb 13, 2012

Why doesn’t God put His valuables in the most valuable looking containers? You may think they you are not valuable enough for God to be able to use. You think have too many ‘chips’ and ‘cracks’ or past or present problems and failures. What is valuable

What is the most inexpensive container you have ever put something valuable in? Money in a sock? Cigar box? God chose to place in human vessels the very presence of His Holy Spirit. If I would have been in charge of presenting Jesus to the world 2,000 years ago I would have used a stadium ...read more

What The World Needs Now Is Love

Contributed by John Lowe on Apr 27, 2013

One of our most basic needs is to be loved. The lyrics of a classic song reflect this worldwide longing—“What the world needs now is love, sweet love, and that’s the only thing there’s too little of.” God has met this need in Christ.

Trusting God's Timing: Hezekiah's Patience For The Sign

Contributed by Christian Jones on Jul 18, 2023

In our journey of faith, we often encounter moments when we must wait on the Lord's timing. Just as Hezekiah displayed unwavering patience and trust in God's promises, we too can find inspiration from his story in 2 Kings 20:8-13.

1. God's Assurance in the Midst of Adversity (Isaiah 41:10) During times of trial, God assures us that He is with us, strengthening us and upholding us with His righteous hand. Like Hezekiah, we must find comfort in God's presence, trusting that His plan is greater than our ...read more

The Hand Of Grace

Contributed by David Zachrich on Aug 9, 2023

It isn’t a story about work and wages. It isn’t a story about justice or fairness. It is a story about life in the church when new saints are included with those who have been in faith for a life time. They, too, receive the vast blessings of God’s grace, forgiveness, and eternal life.

Jesus, when speaking about the wealthy owner, said to the disciples, “Am I not allowed to do what I choose with what belongs to me? Or, are you envious because I am generous?’ So the last will be first, and the first will be last.” Matthew 20:1-16 Friends in Christ, Let’s begin here: The pastor ...read more

Overcoming Unbelief

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 22, 2022

We see that God speaks highly of a man named Caleb that he would be the only one to enter into the Promised Land which God promised he would give to him and his descendants. Not only did Caleb receive commendation from God, there was a promise of God’s blessing on his descendants too.

For today’s meditation we will look at Deuteronomy 1:36, “Only Caleb son of Jephunneh will enter it. He has remained faithful to me, and I will give him and his descendants the land that he has explored.'” (GNB) A background about Caleb We see that God speaks highly of a man named Caleb that ...read more

Found Among Sinners Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Apr 5, 2017

Large crowds followed Jesus, coming where He was. He could've waited on them to come to Him, but often He went out, seeking them. Jesus was often found among those society rejected. We too must be willing to go where they are, seeking to reach them.

Found among Sinners Mark 2: 13-17 Following a season of ministry around the region of Galilee, Jesus had returned to Capernaum. His return created quite a stir, as multitudes arrived at Peter’s house, hoping to see Jesus. The palsied man was miraculously healed, and Jesus made a statement that ...read more

Sermon: Rest For The Weary Series

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jan 31, 2023

Jesus, our blessed Redeemer never became too weary of his labor of love. He ministered to mass crowds, taught the disciples at night, rose early in the morning for prayer, faced relentless opposition and never gave up. Jesus found a rhythm in ministry. He knew when to work, and when to rest.

Sermon: Rest For the Weary Scripture: Matt 11:25-28 “At that time Jesus prayed this prayer: “O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, thank you for hiding these things from those who think themselves wise and clever, and for revealing them to the childlike. 26 Yes, Father, it pleased you to do it this ...read more

On Eagle's Wings

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Feb 1, 2025

The phrase "on eagle's wings" symbolizes God's protection, strength, and ability to lift us above our challenges. Just as eagles soar high above the storms, we too can rise above life's difficulties through faith in God.

ON EAGLE'S WINGS By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Isaiah 40:31 – "But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint." Supporting Texts: Exodus 19:4 Psalm ...read more

Easter Changes Everything Youth Sermon

Contributed by Youth Sermons on Jan 31, 2024

The resurrection of Jesus Christ has the power to transform our lives in ways that are difficult to put into words. It's an experience that is better felt than explained. Just like the disciples who had to see the empty tomb for themselves, we too can experience the hope and transformation that comes from Jesus being alive.

Hey guys, Happy Easter! Today we're talking about something epic, something that changed the world forever - the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It's like that moment when Michael Jordan made that insane shot in 1989, winning the game for the Chicago Bulls. It was a moment that defied gravity and ...read more

Preach The Word

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Nov 1, 2021

Paul gives Timothy one of the most solemn injunctions in scripture: 'preach the word'. He is talking about preaching God's word to God's people rather than sharing the gospel with people outside the church. It's a solemn message to us too, to hold fast to God's word.

INTRODUCTION (EARLIER IN THE SERVICE) Today is our last week on 2 Timothy. Over the past three weeks we’ve looked at chapters 1 to 3. Today, we move on to chapter 4 – the last chapter in 2 Timothy.
