Go! And Stand Firm In The Truth - 2 Timothy 4:3–4 Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Sep 8, 2025

We are living in a time when truth is treated as flexible, as if it bends to the winds of personal preference. Social media influencers, self-help gurus, and even some pulpits echo the same empty promise: “Follow your heart. Create your own truth.”

It's About Time

Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 7, 2025

God invites us to slow down—to listen before reacting, to speak with grace, and to let His Spirit shape our emotional responses. When we follow James 1:19, our relationships reflect the patient, gentle heart of Jesus.

There are moments in ministry that arrive quietly, without fanfare or warning, and yet they end up shaping the way you see people, see yourself, and even see God. One of those moments for me came on a day that seemed ordinary. I was on my way to visit a dear church member I hadn’t seen for too ...read more

No Room For Darkness Youth Sermon

Contributed by Youth Sermons on Sep 4, 2023

Jesus wants us to be people who bring light into the world. To do this, we need to be careful about what we allow into our hearts and minds. The things we see and focus on can either bring light or darkness into our lives.

He emphasizes the importance of where we look, as it can lead us down a path of darkness. Often, temptation starts with a glance, but if we're not careful, it can turn into ...read more
