Come On Down

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Sep 14, 2023

Until God changes us, we cannot be good. But we have to accept his invitation.

Once upon a time, about 2,000 years ago, a man named Zacchaeus wanted something so badly he climbed a tree to get it - in a skirt. I'm not too fond of climbing trees myself, even in jeans; I'm not always sure about getting down again. But this man didn't care. He lived in a town in ...read more

Who Needs Miracles?

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Apr 11, 2023

Would you rather have a faith that is based on eye-catching, headline-grabbing miracles, or a faith which doesn’t need them?

I preached my first sermon from this pulpit on January 19, 1997. It’s been well over a year now, although sometimes it seems much longer because I am so very much at home. But as much as one can think of that as a time of beginning, it was also a time of ending. I expect that only those of you who ...read more

Two Types Of Evangelism (1 Corinthians 2:1-15) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 23, 2022

Comparing and contrasting friendship evangelism, with power evangelism. Also, Spirit wisdom, vs. human wisdom.

I'm finding it impossible when working in 1 Corinthians to offer you any kind of introduction each week. There's something about reflecting on human wisdom, and Spirit wisdom, and Paul's criticism of human eloquence and rhetorical nicety that just stifles that. This week, in ...read more

This message deals with the healing of a man who had been lame for 38 years. Rather than being filled with praise and thanksgiving for the miracle he reported Jesus to the religious authorities to get him in trouble because of his resentment of Jesus for confronting him in his sin.

Rebuild, Renew And Restore Pt. 1

Contributed by Hoggan Tevis on Sep 24, 2018

Nehemiah 6:15-16 15 So on October 2 the wall was finished—just fifty-two days after we had begun. 16 When our enemies and the surrounding nations heard about it, they were frightened and humiliated. They realized this work had been done with the help of our God. (NLT) Intro: Nehemiah-Jehovah ...read more

An insightful look at the wonders of the blood running through our veins which will help to bring greater insight - and understanding - of why Jesus had to shed His blood to forgive sin.

When my wife’s kidneys failed, she had to go on dialysis in order to live. Dialysis cleanses the blood of impurities. If the blood isn’t cleansed daily, a person would quickly die.
