There is comfort for those who grieve at the death of a loved one who died in the Lord. The message explores that comfort that is ours in Christ the Lord.

“We are always of good courage. We know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord, for we walk by faith, not by sight.

Better To Be Sure Than Sorry

Contributed by Bill Burress on Feb 25, 2012

Many people have the misconception that there are several ways to get to heaven but Jesus tells us there is only one.

“Better To Be Sure Than Sorry” Who in this room wants to go to heaven? Heaven is our hope and our goal for the Christian life and obviously everyone wants to go to heaven and I realize with this message I am going to be preaching to the choir. But a ...read more

We Must All Appear Series

Contributed by Guy Mcgraw on Mar 5, 2012

You would think that the most certain appearance of our lives would be the one we would prepare for the most but the truth is that many are not prepared.

Life is filled with certain events that we want to make sure we don’t miss: jury duty, court appearance for a speeding ticket, April 15th. There will be tremendous consequences if we choose to ignore important appearances. ...read more

Contributed by Jay Mccluskey on May 2, 2012

This sermon begins with an affirmation of absolute truth then focuses on three absolute promises Jesus shared in in John 14

KNOWNIN’ WHERE YOU ARE GOIN’ (I began this sermon by flipping a coin several times asking folks to guess if the result would be heads or tails. After several tosses, only a few people had been right ever time.) There is much in this world that is uncertain and unpredictable. Will ...read more

Death Of The Righteous

Contributed by Segun Omole on May 3, 2012

Christians pray about heaven but no one really wants to die. Death I have come to understand is a vehicle to glory for a Christian.

To man death of a righteous man means a waste. Their place is left vacant and what they used to do is left undone. We mourn and cry for we see them no more. Wondering whether we would ever see them again even in eternity as we are still on the journey hoping to reach the right destination in ...read more

When Evil Touches Us , Is It From God ?

Contributed by David Leach on Jan 29, 2014

When evil touches my life is it indirectly from God or can there be another or second cause that has nothing to do with God?

When evil touches my life is it indirectly from God or can there be another or second cause that has nothing to do with God? This is an age old question. Before we became true believers in Christ many of us assumed that when bad things happened to us God was the cause. As young born again ...read more

Hell And Destruction

Contributed by Martin Holland on Jan 31, 2014

The Bible speaks of two distant places one (heaven) is talked of by men often, but the other (hell) is rarely mentioned and the reality of it goes ignored by man.
