Generosity

Contributed by Chuck Gohn on Jun 24, 2022

This sermon is about the false narratives that surround the idea of "generosity" or "giving" and the things that hinder Christians from having a generous spirit.

I want to start off by saying giving in the Christian life is not so much an external action. Something that we do out of guilt or obligation, but really what we do in response to the love of God and the generosity of God. A generosity that we try to imitate as we seek to be more like Jesus ...read more

The Day Of Reckoning Series

Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Jul 15, 2022

In Romans 2:1-5, the Apostle Paul presents three principles by which God will judge sinful humanity on The Day of Reckoning. He does so on the basis of: 1) Knowledge (Romans 2:1), 2) Truth (Romans 2:2–3), and 3) Guilt (Romans 2:4–5).

Romans 2:1–5. Therefore, you have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things. 2 We know that the judgment of God rightly falls on those who practice such things. 3 Do you suppose, O ...read more

To God Be The Glory - Philippians 4:20 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Apr 23, 2022

God’s glory is that which is spectacular, amazing, & beautiful about God. To glory to be to him means that we give him the credit for his works and nature. We glorify God by making him more glorious in people’s sight.

Imagine the world’s fastest race car. Every component on that car is the best you can buy. The wheels cost $5000 each. The problem is, the car can’t go anywhere because the left rear wheel decided it wanted to be in charge, so it’s in the driver’s seat. So the tire is accomplishing nothing, ...read more

A Passion To Serve

Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Sep 3, 2020

There is this big disconnect between loving the Lord and serving Him because many who say they love the Lord really don’t love Him. We will learn today that Jesus links together love and service.

If one were to take a survey and ask Christians the question “Do you love the Lord” the results of the survey would probably indicate that 99.9% of all surveyed "loved the Lord." Most would even say they "loved the Lord a lot." If one were to survey these same people and ask ...read more
