    Mustard Seed-Sized Faith 10/05/25 PRO Sermon

    based on 3 ratings
     | 462 views

    Trusting Jesus with even the smallest faith leads to powerful results, as God values humble obedience over impressive displays of strength or ability.

    If you’ve ever sat at a kitchen table with a bill you can’t pay, a diagnosis you can’t fix, or a relationship you can’t untangle, you’ve likely whispered the disciples’ prayer: "Lord, increase our faith." It’s a simple sentence with a grand ache. We know the feeling of being stretched thin, of ...read more

    Keep Pressing On PRO Sermon

     | 177 views

    God invites us to move forward with Him, leaving the past behind and focusing on Christ, trusting His presence and grace for every step.

    There’s a reason your heart quickens whenever you sense a fresh start. New mercies. New morning. New possibilities. Like a runner at the starting line, leaning forward, muscles ready, eyes fixed—something inside you says, "There’s more ahead." You were made for forward motion with Christ. You were ...read more

    The Truth About Family In Heaven PRO Sermon

     | 146 views

    Despite our current limited understanding, God promises we will one day see Him clearly, fully known and loved, reunited and whole in His presence.

    If you’ve ever peered through a fogged-up bathroom mirror and tried to make sense of the face staring back, you know the feeling. Shapes are there. Outlines are there. But clarity? It waits. Life often feels like that—hints without the whole picture, music through a wall, daylight under a door. We ...read more

    When You're Weary, But Still Walking PRO Sermon

    based on 3 ratings
     | 149 views

    When we feel exhausted and overwhelmed, God invites us to trust Him, wait on Him, and receive renewed strength for each day.

    Some of us walked in today with a quiet question humming beneath the surface: How much longer can I keep this up? The calendar is crowded, the to-do list grows fangs, and sleep feels like a stranger. Parents, professionals, students, caregivers—such faithful folks—yet even you can feel thin at the ...read more

    Loving The People Right Around You PRO Sermon

    based on 3 ratings
     | 80 views

    The sermon urges us to love God wholeheartedly and express that love through everyday acts of kindness and care for those around us.

    Some words from Jesus land in the heart like a familiar melody. They hum along in the background while you’re packing lunches, paying bills, or waiting at a red light. They are simple enough for a child to recite and strong enough to hold up a life. Mark 12:30-31 is like that. It meets us at the ...read more

    Jesus, the Good Shepherd, personally calls us by name, offering true life, guidance, and security amid life’s noise and distractions.

    Some weeks feel like standing in a crowded barn. So many voices. So much noise. Phones buzz. News churns. Deadlines demand. You find yourself wondering, Does anyone hear me? Does anyone know my name? The pages of John 10 open like a quiet pasture on a loud day. They whisper, Yes. The Shepherd does. ...read more

     | 147 views

    The sermon emphasizes cultivating a life of continual prayer, gratitude, and joy, trusting God’s presence and power in every ordinary moment and circumstance.

    Friends, welcome. Some of us walked in with bright hearts, some with tired eyes, and some with questions that kept us awake last night. God sees every sigh, every secret worry, every small smile of hope. He gathers it all, and He meets us here. I once watched my grandmother hum hymns over a sink ...read more

    The sermon urges believers to embody Christ’s love through everyday acts of kindness, service, and hospitality, making faith tangible in ordinary life.

    Some of the most life-changing sermons are preached without pulpits. A handwritten note in a mailbox. A casserole on a front porch. A hand on a shoulder in a waiting room. A smile across a sanctuary. You have seen these sermons. Many of you have preached them. And if you listen closely, you can ...read more

     | 92 views

    God’s unwavering faithfulness means He never forgets us or His promises; His presence and covenant love sustain us through every season and circumstance.

    Some of us keep a shoebox of memories. A faded ticket stub from the big game. A ribbon from a graduation cap. A hospital bracelet that once wrapped a tiny wrist. We keep them because they tell us who we are and whose we are. They steady us. They sing to us on stormy days. They whisper, You’ve been ...read more

    Trust God to provide for your needs, focus on His Kingdom above all else, and find peace in His faithful care despite financial uncertainty.

    Some of us walked in today with a calculator in our pocket and a knot in our stomach. The paycheck was thin, the pantry looks tired, and the math refuses to cooperate. You’ve pinched pennies, stretched spaghetti, checked the account twice, and still you wonder, Will there be enough? Have you ever ...read more

     | 7,703 views

    This is part of a series of very brief messages that can be used in church newsletters for stewardship.

    In the third chapter of Philippians, the Apostle Paul uses the Greek word, dioko, (dee-o-ko, “to pursue”) to describe the nature of his spiritual development. In the sixth verse, he says that he pursued Christians in an effort to protect Judaism. In verse twelve, Paul says that he ...read more

    Gotta Grudge?

     | 15,242 views

    A sermon about letting go of bitterness and embracing forgiveness.

    Are you holding a grudge? A grudge? You know, you can’t physically see it but hidden in your heart is something of substance. Something you have a tendency to hang onto, even hold close. It’s a resistance. It’s reluctance. It’s a rebellion, and it’s resentment. ...read more

    Following Christ means following him to the cross.

    There are basically two kinds of sermons on the Christian life. The first type of sermon views the Christian life as a kind of puzzle to be solved, with the message going something like this: Life is full of hardships, and frustrations, and obstacles. But if you do this one thing; if you ...read more

    The Father Bows At Calvary

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 13, 2025
     | 116 views

    The Father bowed in love at Calvary, endured the silence of separation, and rejoiced in the resurrection that opened eternity for us.

    THE FATHER BOWS AT CALVARY There are moments in Scripture where God steps back the veil just enough for us to see Him. Not His power. Not His throne. Not His fire. But His heart. Moments when the God who is infinite becomes so close, so tender, so grieved, so invested in His children, that you can ...read more
