    From The Unknown To The Known God

    Contributed by Derek Geldart on Nov 15, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 217 views

    Believers are to engage an idol-filled modern culture with the same wisdom, compassion, and courageous clarity Paul displayed in Athens—understanding people’s longings, building bridges to the truth, and faithfully proclaiming the risen Christ!

    How do we, as Christ’s ambassadors, engage a modern culture with wisdom, courage, and gentleness—so that the gospel is not just another opinion in the noise, but a message carried on “beautiful feet” bringing good news? Everywhere we look, the signs of moral fracture are ...read more

    Grace Versus Works - Saved By The Faith Of Jesus

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Aug 20, 2025
    based on 4 ratings
     | 270 views

    In the Bible, Jesus is often referred to as God's "free gift" (Romans 5:15 NIV). A person is free to reject that gift just as they are free to reject the offer of friendship and love from another.

    Works-based Christianity is similar to the principle of Karma, which is the "law of the deed," a centuries-old worldwide belief that if you do good things, good will come back to you, and if you do bad things, bad will come back to you. It is believed that suffering is a result of a ...read more

    Sermon: The Attributes Of God The Father

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on May 13, 2025
     | 731 views

    What is God really like? Some people think the most important question of life is “Do you believe in God?” But a more important question is “What kind of God do you believe in?” God is love! Really!

    Sermon: The Attributes of God the Father Text: Luke 15: 11-24 “And he said, A certain man had two sons: And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me.

    Sara is a person who worked downtown.

    “One out of Ten” “One of them, when he saw he was healed, came back, praising God in a loud voice. He threw himself at Jesus’ feet and thanked him—and he was a Samaritan. Jesus asked, “Were not all ten cleansed? Where are the other nine? Was no one found to return and give praise to God except ...read more

    One day a man was walking down the street, saw a hole, and fell in it. The next day the man walked down the street and saw the hole and fell in again. The third day the man partially changed his course but still fell in the hole.

    Choose Your Weapons Wisely “By the humility and gentleness of Christ, I appeal to you—I, Paul, who am “timid” when face to face with you, but “bold” toward you when away! 2 I beg you that when I come I may not have to be as bold as I expect to be toward some people who think that we live by the ...read more

    Your Past Defines You Series

    Contributed by Duane Wente on Jun 8, 2025
     | 668 views

    The world says your past defines you—but God says in Christ, you are a new creation. Your identity is not rooted in what you’ve done, but in who He declares you to be.

     | 2,594 views

    There are always two categories of people anywhere – those who seek God for personal gain and the ones who seek God for who He really is. Which group do we belong to?

    We remind ourselves that this series of messages are based on Act 11:21“And the hand of the Lord was with them: and a great number believed, and turned unto the Lord.” (KJV) The Lord’s hand is a powerful hand, a hand that helps, a hand that exalts us, and His hand is at work in all areas of our ...read more

    This Centurion in our story today is a model for us of Christian service. He is a man with authority over 100 soldiers, but he became a servant to his own servant when he called upon Jesus to heal him.

    Faith That Marvels Luk 7:1-10 Read: Luke 7:1-10 Practically all Bibles today are divided up by chapter and verse, but many are also by divided by chapter or sectional topics.

    Nowhere To Run, Nowhere To Hide! Series

    Israel acted as if God did not see their heart and their attitude. God saw all the meeting and plans with Egypt. God saw the attitude towards His word. How strange that so many people think that they can hide from God.

    Sermon: Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide! Scripture: Isaiah 30:1-14 NLT “What sorrow awaits my rebellious children,” says the Lord. “You make plans that are contrary to mine. You make alliances not directed by my Spirit, thus piling up your sins. 2 For without consulting me, you have gone down to ...read more

     | 4,286 views

    Valentine's Day: Peter came very close to viewing himself by his failures instead of seeing himself through the eyes of Christ. He finally came to realize that he was a beloved disciple. And Jesus sees you as cherished too!

    This morning I want to address the topic of our identity in Christ, concerning how we are a people covered by grace, and how we are deeply loved and cherished. Many believers walk about feeling defeated. They come down hard on themselves and never accept the forgiveness that God wants to offer ...read more

    Message In 1peter – Number 4 – Born Again Through That Which Is Imperishable, But What Is It? – 1peter 1:23 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 9, 2023
     | 1,426 views

    Peter teaches on the new birth. Being born again by the imperishable seed. There can be no regeneration of the human soul in any person’s life, which is dead to God, without the operation of the word of God. Therefore a preacher must be aware of the importance of the quickening word in preaching.

    MESSAGE IN 1PETER – NUMBER 4 – BORN AGAIN THROUGH THAT WHICH IS IMPERISHABLE, BUT WHAT IS IT? – 1Peter 1:23 [A]. INTRODUCTION – BIRTH AND DEVELOPMENT Some people are so delighted when they become grandparents for the first time. They are seeing the continuation of their imprint on human life, ...read more
