    Murder Or Mercy: The Death Of Potential

    Contributed by Ron Auch Jr on Apr 18, 2025
     | 179 views

    Because of the deep place murder holds in the heart, most of the time we tend to even ignoring God’s forewarnings.

    “Murder or Mercy” The death of potential I find the simplicity of this statement striking, especially in how it contrasts murder and mercy. Today we are focusing on the contrast between personal choices and God’s mercy. We will also be connecting this idea to how people often take their ...read more

    Good morning, beloved members of our church family. It's always a joy to gather together, to celebrate our shared faith and to encourage one another in our walk with the Lord.

    We are built God tough. We are built on a firm foundation and Jesus is that foundation. Today if God were to hold the plumb line up to measure your life, how would you line up with the plumb line of the perfect life of Jesus Christ how would we hold up?

    Whose Line is it Anyway? There are many times in our lives when we must make decisions/choices. We choose what type of friend we are going to hang around, and we choose the type of food we are going to eat. We make decisions about daycare and schools and jobs. We choose what to wear each day ...read more

    Greed Series

    based on 34 ratings
     | 13,530 views

    Greed with it’s power to grab hold of your soul will rob you of making wise decisions, and will turn you into a fool. Greed is costly, it’s not a cute little sin that just sits there being harmless, it’s robs, steals, kills and destroys all that you hold

    Passage: Genesis 13:10-13; 2 Peter 2:7-8 A woman decided to have her portrait painted.

    Never Give Up, Never Surrender Series

    Contributed by Austin W. Duncan on Sep 26, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 403 views

    Paul shows how to return and keep moving—admitting we haven’t arrived, forgetting what holds us, and pressing on toward Christ (Philippians 3:12–16). The direction is the point: let go of past wins and wounds, lean forward, and run because Christ already holds you.

    Last week, we kicked off our series "Back At It," and we talked about how Jesus meets us where we are, even when we've drifted back to our old ways. We looked at the story of Jesus cooking breakfast for His disciples on the shore, calling them back to their true purpose. Today, ...read more

    A country preacher sold a mule to a friend, and told him the mule was trained to go when the rider said "Praise the Lord," and to stop when the rider said, "Amen." The buyer mounted the beast and commanded, "Praise the Lord," and the mule shot off like a rocket. The startled rider panicked. "Whoa!" ...read more

    Life is a precious gift of God. Does that mean we cannot destroy it or that we must hold men accountable for destroying it?

    INTRO: The death penalty receives much criticism from unbelievers and believers. Often those who claim to be Christians oppose it more vehemently. People reach very different conclusions about this subject based on the same principle—the sanctity of human life. Some say that because life is such ...read more

    There is much that can be learned from the biblical order in which the handwritings of God were given. These writings hold a message for all mankind.

    “THE FOUR HANDWRITINGS OF GOD” “And Moses turned, and went down from the mountain, and the two tablets of the Testimony were in his hand. The tablets were written on both sides; on the one side and on the other they were written. Now the tablets were the work of God, and the writing was ...read more
