The Three Legged Race Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Sep 4, 2012

The Three Legged Race (2 Corinthians 6:14-18) 1. Here is an old joke about a three-legged race of sorts. One day a traveller was driving down a back country road when he noticed that there was a three-legged chicken running alongside his car. He stepped on the gas but at 50 miles per hour.

Reward For Being Obedient

Contributed by Rev. Felix Cornelius Agyei on Jun 10, 2023

God's promise of a new beginning are not in a vacuum. It does not just take God to make it possible. Abraham had a part to play. In the same way, the new life and restoration that Jesus brings demand our participation. What then is our participation? THIS IS OBEDIENCE.

THE LORD, OUR OBJECT OF OBEDIENT The one whose voice and command we are to obey is the LORD Himself. The Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. He is the One who commanded OUR Father Abraham (Gen. 12:1). In Matthew, it is Christ Jesus Christ. We must learn to obey the Holy Spirit who now works in ...read more

Sermon On The Real Father Christmas

Contributed by William Meakin on Nov 25, 2025

Whether the real Father Christmas exists or not is a matter of personal belief.

Our Excellent God Series

Contributed by Joseph Marshall on Oct 3, 2022

One of the purposes of the Bible in general & the Psalms in particular is to teach us the character & nature of God so that we will be led to praise Him. David here used the word excellent to describe God. Our Excellent God.

Psalms 8 & 9 are psalms of praise. I’m convinced that we do not praise God enough. The reason we do not praise Him is that we do not think much about Him & the reasons why He deserves our praise. One of the purposes of the Bible in general & the Psalms, in particular, is to teach us ...read more

Eliminate All Hurry Youth Sermon

Contributed by Youth Sermons on Sep 4, 2023

Jesus was busy but never in a hurry. We can follow His example by prioritizing our time and protecting it based on our priorities. However, we must remember that our worth is not determined by our productivity.

Jesus was always on the go, but never in a rush. He knew how to prioritize and protect his time. And guess what? Our worth ...read more

I Once Was Lost But Now I'm Found

Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 2, 2025

Identity is not found by looking inward but revealed by God. We are lost in self but found when the Father comes running.

I will never forget the moment when someone I loved looked at me and said, “I need to find myself.” I can still remember the quality of the light in the room, the strange hush in the air, the way those four words seemed to rearrange the furniture of my life in an instant. It wasn’t loud. It wasn’t ...read more
