    Jesus Is Sending You

    Contributed by Bruce Lee on May 28, 2025
     | 260 views

    Do you value the same things that Jesus places a value on? People in the world are eternally lost apart from Christ. Yet these same people are of extreme worth and value in the eyes of God.

    Jesus is Sending You “ On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jewish leaders, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!” 20 After he said this, he showed them his hands and side. The disciples were ...read more

     | 2,147 views

    This is a message given to the staff of an inner-city mission in Toronto, Ontario during Advent 2022.

    The Incarnation of the Word I love the accounts of the nativity, the birth of Christ that we find in the gospels. I love the story, I love lingering with the story, I love its innocence, its directness and its simple beauty. I also love it because I love understatement. Before going to seminary ...read more

    "Our Identity In Christ (Ii): We Are Sinners And Need God’s Forgiveness”

    Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Jun 2, 2021
     | 2,613 views

    Knowing who we are in Christ is vital. Without it, we can be confused, lost, and have no meaning and purpose in our lives, and therefore, fail to accomplish God's plans for us. This is the second sermon series on "Our Identity in Christ."

    The second element about "Self-Identity" that we need to understand is that we are human beings who have sinned and need God's forgiveness. Let's read Genesis 3:6 - “When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for ...read more

     | 1,519 views

    We do not know anything about these two persons, men of position evidently, who had large households. But learned commentators of the New Testament have advanced a very sensible conjecture concerning each of them.

    tom lowe 1/10/2022 Aristobulus and Narcissus Early Church Workers • Aristobulus was the grandson of Herod the Great and lived in Rome as a private citizen. • Since Paul does not greet him, but only those in his household, it is plausible to think he had either passed away or was not a ...read more

    You Can Be Different

    Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Mar 31, 2025
     | 480 views

    This sermon helps us to understand the need for change in our lives, a change that puts away the old self and allows a new self in Christ to begin.

    Let me open with this. If there is no intelligence behind the universe, then nobody or nothing designed my brain for the purpose of thinking. Thought is merely the by-product of some atoms within my skull. If so, how can I trust my own thinking to be true? And if I can’t trust my own thinking, I ...read more

    The Father bridges the distance between word and reality—teaching us to believe before we see, then opening our eyes to worship Him fully.

    Faith and Sight (John 4 & John 9 — The Nobleman’s Son and the Man Born Blind) --- Introduction — The Longest Distance in the World Someone once said the longest distance in the world is only about eighteen inches — the space between the head and the heart.

    Coincidence Or Providence Series

     | 298 views

    Our focus is not technically Santa or a list, but rather Jesus. Let’s look at Jesus’ birth where we will discover two lists and one gift. Tonight, I’d like us to focus on what happened the night of Jesus’ birth.

    based on 1 rating
     | 178 views

    We live in a comfort-driven culture. Everything in the 21st century whispers, “Avoid pain. Escape discomfort. Protect your preferences.” Yet Scripture speaks a very different language. The Bible tells us that pain, in the hands of a loving Father, is not pointless—it is productive.

    The Pain That Produces Peace: God’s Loving Discipline in the Life of a Disciple Introduction: When It Hurts Let me begin with a simple, honest truth: following Jesus is glorious—but it is not always easy. We live in a comfort-driven culture. Everything in the 21st century whispers, “Avoid pain. ...read more
