     | 936 views

    This sermon will explore the concept of suffering and pain as unavoidable aspects of life, emphasizing that God has a purpose for these experiences and uses them for His glory.

    Hello church! Glad to have you all here today as we jump into a huge topic together. Suffering is something so personal, so universally understood, and so imperative in the lives of those who follow Jesus. Everyone suffers at some point or another. Everyone experiences pain and hardship. Everyone ...read more

    Faith is best understood in the context of attempting great things for God.

    I am really excited to be starting a brand new series. It is called, "Stepping Out in Faith." What you read just a moment ago were some quotes from our founding fathers. And what we see in their lives is that they were men of faith. They were believers, by and large. Not everyone, and not everyone ...read more

    Are you going to believe Brown or the Bible? This sermon focuses on the facts of how we got our Bible and why we can believe it.

    This Ain't No Fish Story

    Why is it that we don’t share our faith in Christ more? Maybe Jonah can shed some light on the subject. Learn 5 attitudes that keep us from reaching others from his life.

    This Ain’t No Fish Story! I want to tell you a story this morning about a fish. But it’s anything but a “fish story”. Most of us can probably remember the story of “Jonah & the Whale” from our Sunday School days, but maybe now that we’re all grown up, we kind of put it in the same category as ...read more

    Mirror, Mirror On The Wall Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 11, 2008
    based on 9 ratings
     | 9,799 views

    We can be hearers of the Word and deceive ourselves, or we can be doers of the Word and be blessed. James calls each Christian to be a doer of the Word, receiving the blessing of doing what God commands.

    JAMES 1:22-25 MIRROR, MIRROR ON THE WALL… “Be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what ...read more

    Religion Condemned Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 25, 2008
     | 3,685 views

    James exposes the difference between religion that comforts us and religion that reveals the power of Christ among us.

    JAMES 1:26 RELIGION CONDEMNED “If anyone thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person’s religion is worthless.” Someone has said, “You can’t believe half of what you hear, but you can repeat it.” This points out a real problem in the church today—we ...read more

    The way to overcome rudeness is to begin to show 'respect' to all people.

    Love Is Not Rude #LoveIs IN – Just a couple of days Jesus is going to be arrested, beaten and crucified. BUT TODAY – He is in the temple area teaching the people, and answering questions that the religious leaders kept throwing at Him trying to trip Him up.

    What happens when a church begins to tolerate just a little bit of evil? The study is a consideration of this particular question.

    “To the angel of the church in Thyatira write: ‘The words of the Son of God, who has eyes like a flame of fire, and whose feet are like burnished bronze. “‘I know your works, your love and faith and service and patient endurance, and that your latter works exceed the first.

    Paul's closing words summarise what has been presented to Timothy in this letter.

    “O Timothy, guard the deposit entrusted to you. Avoid the irreverent babble and contradictions of what is falsely called ‘knowledge,’ for by professing it some have swerved from the faith. “Grace be with you.” [1] It is no secret that I am a news junkie; I fill my ...read more

    Come Before Winter Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Oct 15, 2016
     | 11,691 views

    The coming of winter imposes an urgency on our service to Christ. For someone we know, it is "winter, or never." Whatever we are to do, it must be now.

    “Greet Prisca and Aquila, and the household of Onesiphorus. Erastus remained at Corinth, and I left Trophimus, who was ill, at Miletus. Do your best to come before winter. Eubulus sends greetings to you, as do Pudens and Linus and Claudia and all the brothers. “The Lord be with your ...read more

    Do Christians seek comfort? Or do we seek substance? Jesus offered substance, but it wasn't always appreciated, even by those identified as disciples.

    “When many of his disciples heard [Jesus’ teaching], they said, ‘This is a hard saying; who can listen to it?’ But Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples were grumbling about this, said to them, ‘Do you take offense at this? Then what if you were to see the Son of Man ascending to where he ...read more

    When a Christian prays, God is pledged to act. This is especially true when we pray for fellow Christians who have begun to stray.

    “This is the confidence that we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us. And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of him. “If anyone sees his brother committing a sin not leading to death, he shall ...read more
