China And The Throne Series

Contributed by Stu Hodges on Jun 19, 2013

Treat him like a king on a throne and treat her like fine china, and you'll get out of the love shack.

Our culture wants you to believe something about romance and relationships that simply is not true. And a lot of you believe it. Culture says, love is all about me. The way I feel. The things I want. The desires I have. To prove my point, we’re going to play this little game. I’m ...read more

Whining In The Wilderness Series

Contributed by Sean Harder on Jun 28, 2013

We need to stop complaining and cry out to God, depending on him to meet our most important needs of this journey. That we don’t just rely on leaders to connect us with God but rather we are all responsible for having our own relationship with Him.

(Exodus 15:22-27) So Moses/God led them into the desert for three days without water. Experts say that in a warm dry environment like that, 3 days would be the upper limit of survival without water. So these people would be very near death when they came upon this watering hole. And imagine their ...read more

One Simple Question Series

Contributed by J. D. Greear on Jul 11, 2013

Apostle Paul teaches us a principle that should undergird all of our relationships.

Introduction: Couple of important points from last week: First, there are no married people issues; only single people issues that get worse in marriage. Marriage doesn’t create problems; it merely exposes them. Let me apologize in advance for this illustration, but how many ...read more

Deepening Desire Series

Contributed by Kyle Idleman on Jul 28, 2014

In love, if we start by asking God what he wants, chances are we will find a love like the one in Song of Solomon, and it will become its own song.

The Song of Solomon, or Song of Songs, is one of the most interesting, unique books in the Bible. Nothing else is like it. Psalms has poetry, but not like this. Ruth and Esther have love stories, but not like this one. Paul talked about marriage, but not as Song of Solomon does. This book of the ...read more

Forgiveness Is Not A Choice

Contributed by Reggie Corfield on Aug 12, 2014

Forgiveness has eternal consequences. Perhaps that is why Jesus included it in his model prayer saying we are forgiven only when we forgive. Satan does not have to get us with every sin in the bible. All he needs is to get us with one.

I want to start with something funny, so listen to this. One Sunday a Preacher’s message was about forgiveness. Hoping to have made an impact, towards the end of the sermon, he asked his congregation, “How many of you have been able to forgive those who offended ...read more

Selflessness Series

Contributed by Pat Damiani on Sep 4, 2015

Authentic relationships are enhanced when I yield my rights in order to prevent unnecessary fights

For the past several years, we’ve spent some time around Mother’s Day and Father’s Day to do some topical preaching on the family. And in a culture that is increasingly pressuring us to abandon what the Bible teaches about the family, that teaching is more needed than ever. This ...read more

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Oct 14, 2013

Cultivating Connection Series

Contributed by Brad Bailey on Jun 11, 2009

We’re focused on so many things outwardly that it’s a challenge for us to focus inwardly.

Making Connections Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jul 13, 2009

For some, Paul’s greetings at the end of Romans might seem boring and not relevant. To the contrary, Paul’s connections with other believers offers us a rich tapestry of life and service in the 1st century church.

Paul’s letter to the Romans was not merely a theological treatise on God’s plan to rescue mankind from evil. He wrote it to people he had (mostly) never met, in a city where he had never been. The purpose of his letter was that of introduction. “Hi, I’m Paul, and this is what I believe.” In ...read more
