     | 5,111 views

    In today’s world we constantly hear the philosophy being taught that says all of us must focus on moving up, being more than we are now, climbing the ladder of success. Moving higher up. Keeping that in mind the words of John in this passage can be very

    The Falling Away Comes First

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Mar 18, 2024
     | 1,072 views

    The Thessalonians were looking forward to His coming. But something caused them to be “shaken in mind and troubled.” The assurance Paul gives to them gives assurance to us as well: the Lord has promised to return for His own, and we have not missed it. The falling away will come first.

    Alba 3-17-2024 THE FALLING AWAY COMES FIRST II Thessalonians 2:1-12 My wife, Janine, tells about a dream she had when she was very young, likely no more than four years old. At that time her family lived on a farm in North Dakota. There was a long driveway from the road to the house. In her ...read more

    Sermon # 4 - In God's True Image Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Mar 12, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 295 views

    God’s image in us as human beings is what makes us special. But, we should also bear in mind that we are the temple of the living God and He dwells within us. Only when we live in total obedience to His word will all of our confusions be turned to peace and rest.

    We read in Philippians 4:8, “Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.” (ESV) The word of God counsels us ...read more

    Sermon # 7 - Time To Stop Murmuring Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 21, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,296 views

    Do we find ourselves complaining and murmuring about many things? Why do we do so, and how can we stop doing this? This sermon will help us examine ourselves in the light of God’s word.

    If we as a church today desire to resemble the early church, and if our aspiration is that people should be added in great numbers, then it is only appropriate that we not only evaluate ourselves in the light of God’s word, but also investigate to see what the early church did differently that made ...read more

    Secular psychologists have developed methods for dealing with Low Self-Esteem. But what does the Bible teach concerning this matter? This message offer three principles for dealing with self-esteem based on Scripture.

    Intro Last week we introduced the subject of self-awareness. Self-awareness is a fact of life. God made us in such a way that we are aware of self, aware of our interaction with God, aware of our interaction with other people, and aware of our interaction with our environment. The self-awareness ...read more

    What do you think about when you think of Christmas? What words pop into your mind? Home? Family? Gifts? Crowds? Jesus? Food? Santa Claus? All of these, & more, I imagine!

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK (Revised: 2014) Why does Christmas seem to be so much more important than all the other holidays of the year? Why is so much attention given to Christmas? Mother's Day, Father's Day, 4th of July are important holidays, but put ...read more

     | 3,088 views

    We often try to get away with putting forth the least effort possible in order to achieve the greatest results. But this is far from a Biblical concept. God has a better idea in mind, as he has already shown in Christ.

    Passage: 1 Peter 1:13-21 Intro: One of the most prevalent tendencies among human beings is our desire expend as little effort as possible to achieve our goals. 1. weight loss without diet or exercise, pill. 2. destroy Iraqi regime in a week. 3. “what do I need to do to pass this course” 4. ...read more

     | 4,862 views

    This message encourages those who hear it to take time to "rest" and seek God. If we don’t take time to know God, we can never love him with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength.

    “Nine Out of Ten Ain’t Bad…” By: Pastor Wade Hatfield Today, we are going to begin by looking at the Ten Commandments. How many think they could stand up and recite all ten?

    The cross is hideous. It’s not a pretty thing we hang on our walls. It’s not a fine piece of jewelry hanging from our neck. It is the most brutal instrument of death ever conceived by the cruel mind of man.

    For the past few weeks, we’ve been looking at the events of the last few days of Jesus’ life on earth. With each of those events, we’ve seen a sense of urgency. Each week we have seen an example of urgency. But this morning is different. In this morning’s passage, our Lord shows a sense of ...read more
