Doing Thanksgiving Right

Contributed by Scott Maze on Nov 21, 2022

The Bible says only one in ten will return to praise God for what He has done for me. Nine people were healed, but only one person honored the Lord. Only one person was found to be kneeling at Jesus’ feet, thanking Jesus.

Jesus met ten anonymous people in our story today, we are never told their names. All ten men were soon to die and all ten men were miraculously healed. Only one of the ten came back to thank Jesus. I wonder, if you were one of these ten, would you be a part of the nine who didn’t return to give ...read more

Total Restoration PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Sep 30, 2025

God invites us to humble ourselves, pray, and turn from sin, promising forgiveness and healing when we seek Him with sincere, repentant hearts.

Storms come with headlines and hard weeks. They rattle windows and rattle nerves. But some promises feel like a porch light left on—steady, warm, welcoming us home.

Pastor Appreciation PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 5, 2025

Jesus gives pastors as a loving gift to His church, calling us to honor, support, and pray for them as they shepherd and serve us.

Some of the greatest gifts Jesus gives to His church have names and faces, coffee-stained sermon notes, calloused knees, and tender hearts. They stand at hospital bedsides, whisper prayers in empty sanctuaries, answer phone calls after midnight, and show up again on Sunday with a smile that says, ...read more

Will You Give Him Thanks? PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 7, 2025

Gratitude transforms our lives; when we return to thank Jesus for His mercy, we experience deeper wholeness and the richness only gratitude can bring.

Some of the most powerful moments in Scripture begin with a simple cry for help. Think about it: a whisper becomes a waterfall, a sigh becomes a song. When weary people raise faint voices to heaven, heaven hears. In Luke 17, ten tired men lifted ten shaky prayers. They were outcasts, pushed to the ...read more

Friends, welcome. Some of us walked in with bright hearts, some with tired eyes, and some with questions that kept us awake last night.

Stewardship Begins With Prayer PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 29, 2025

Prayer transforms worry into peace, gratitude turns scarcity into joy, and intentional generosity creates lasting impact when we bring everything to God with open hearts.

Some days it feels like life is lived in the space between sighs. Between the doctor’s call and the next appointment. Between a stack of bills and a thin bank account. Between what we hoped for and what is here. In those spaces, God is nearer than breath. He leans over the rail of heaven, ...read more

When Should We Be Thankful? PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 31, 2025

True gratitude is not dependent on circumstances but is a daily response to God’s faithfulness, shaping our hearts and sustaining us through every season.

Friends, some weeks feel like a kaleidoscope of errands and emotions—school drop-offs and late invoices, texts we forgot to answer, headlines we wish we hadn’t read. Yet right in the middle of muddy shoes by the door, burnt toast on the counter, and the ache we can’t name, there is a whisper from ...read more

A Better Walk With God Through Thankfulness PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 31, 2025

Gratitude opens our hearts to God’s presence, transforming ordinary moments and burdens into opportunities for praise, hope, and deeper relationship with Him.

Some of us walked in today with full hearts; some with heavy ones. Either way, here you are, and here God is—nearer than the breath you just took. Picture an old, sturdy gate swinging open. Hear the hinges creak a welcome. On the other side? Not a cold courtyard, but the warm smile of a Father who ...read more
