Fixing Your Eyes On The Promises Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jul 23, 2021

God commended Joseph's faith for the strangest reason - because Joseph "gave directions concerning his bones." Seriously? Joseph's faith was praised because of his funeral arrangements? What's that all about, and what can it mean to us?

CHILDREN'S STORY: When we get done here I PROMISE you I’ll give you a sucker. Do you know what a promise is? A promise is when someone tells you they’re going to do something… and then they do it.

The Mighty Name Of Jesus Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Nov 18, 2021

The name of Jesus is a powerful weapon in spiritual warfare; however, His name must not be taken lightly or used inappropriately. Also, Jesus promised to be present in power among His followers whenever they acted in His name.

When we speak the precious and powerful name of Jesus, it’s not a magic word. We must be wholly submitted to Jesus to use it. - Dean Sherman(1) The name of Jesus is the most powerful weapon in spiritual warfare. Jesus is the Word (Jn 1:1, 14), and by the Word and through His holy name “the ...read more

Thanksgiving Grace

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Nov 28, 2021

This Sunday we’ll be looking at how we are to “Say Grace.” While we look at the giving of blessings for the food that we eat, saying grace is so much more, which in turn should literally change the way we thank God for what He has so graciously given.

Thanksgiving Grace Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RduI0CrSBJA As I approached today’s message, I really didn’t know what the Lord wanted me to talk about. Thanksgiving is over, but the holiday and what it stands for I just couldn’t get off my mind. And then, I was inundated in my time ...read more

How Christians Must Understand The Israel And Hamas Situation Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 10, 2023

The civilised nations are appalled at the horrible events in Israel in recent days, but Israel is the focus of God’s plans and God’s prophetic time clock. We look at how we as Christians can understand these events and what lies in the very near future for Israel and the Church.

HOW CHRISTIANS MUST UNDERSTAND THE ISRAEL AND HAMAS SITUATION One would have to be deaf and blind not to realise all the news on the terror situation in Israel. It is not my desire to recount the things that have happened, but it is my concern and desire to see all this from the Christian point ...read more

Forgetting What Lies Behind

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 2, 2022

It hurts when we realize our own failures; but when other people point them out it can be debilitating. This message looks at how Satan tries to hinder God’s people by holding their past over them, and how Paul was able to overcome.

Have you ever been led to step out in faith and tackle a mission that God placed on your heart? Maybe the Lord asked you to witness to a friend or coworker. Perhaps He asked you to tell a relative about the love of Jesus, or maybe He asked you to surrender to the call to preach or become a ...read more

Is Official/Formal Church Membership In A Local Church According To Scripture? – Part 4 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 7, 2025

This is the final part and we look at a numbers of issues here as well as two statements from Internet sites on why membership is important. Over and over I am opposing this notion that commitment is connected with official membership. It is judgemental and untrue. I hope this is of some value.

Wrestling And Reconcilliation Series

Contributed by Brian Williams on Mar 31, 2025

God had patiently pursued Jacob, wrestled with him, wounded him, weakened him so Jacob could see that the greatest blessing was God himself.

The same night he arose and took his two wives, his two female servants, and his eleven children,e and crossed the ford of the Jabbok. He took them and sent them across the stream, and everything else that he had. And Jacob was left alone. And a man wrestled with him until the breaking of the ...read more

Some Visible Results Of Faith Series

Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Nov 7, 2022

When we step out by faith in God, led by the Spirit of God, grounded in the Word of God, we see visible answers to our faith. These answers act as verification for our faith in the unseen spiritual realities and encourage its growth.
