    Contributed by Mark Opperman on Dec 5, 2011
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,607 views

    When our suffering life connects with our prayer life – it sends a cry out to the heavenly realms which God hears. Some thoughts about suffering and where it fits in to our temporary lives on this earth.

    Longing for Something Better Romans 8:18-28 18 I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. 19 The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed. 20 For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its ...read more

    This sermon is the final in a series on consider the passion through the book of Matthew. By considering a number of passages we see that confusion around the death of Jesus turns into enthusiasm and commitment to stand up for Jesus.

    This was an Easter Sunday Message It was delivered in two parts. Title:- Jesus Provides ... Mankind Sees. Messag-ette 1 We are not going to focus on one specific passage of the Bible today – rather we are going to put together a series of passages and historical events. What we want to do is ask ...read more

     | 3,000 views

    Advent is a time in which we reflect upon the return of Christ and prepare for that Day.

    To Be Blameless at the Advent 1 Thessalonians 3:9-13 Advent is a time of reflection. Most people spend the season of Advent contemplating the birth of Jesus Christ. We tend to concentrate on the Baby Jesus in the manger. We wonder why He came to such an awful place as earth, a world filled with ...read more

    This message focuses on Jacob’s complaint as seen in the title. We learn, as he learned, it was not so. Brief mention is made of Paul’s triumph over his difficulties. There are lessons and applications for our daily Christian walk.

    Charles W. Holt email: cholt@gt.rr.com ALL THESE THINGS ARE AGAINST ME By Charles W. Holt But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel; (Phil. 1:12) And Jacob their father said unto them, Me ...read more

    Being fed in church is fine, but if all we do is eat and not put our faith into action, all we get is spiritual obesity.

    Guarding Against Spiritual Obesity Mark 10:35-45 November 11, 2007 We are coming to the end of our autumn stewardship emphasis. Next week is Consecration Sunday when we will present our Estimate of Giving cards to God’s work through Calvary church. Throughout the last few weeks, we have been ...read more

    When God gets involved, words such as "likely" and "unlikely" don’t apply.

    (Note: the title comes from a message by Rick Warren; however, the sermon itself is original) What are the odds of the Cleveland Browns playing in the Super Bowl this year? They’re about 1-in-15, according to the Las Vegas bookmakers, with a 1-in-20 chance of actually winning the big game. That’s ...read more

    Twenty-Four Carat Faith

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 11, 2025
     | 229 views

    We don’t have to suffer for our faith. But we do have to live for it. And if we never grate against a sinful world, how true to Christ are we being?

    Peter is one of my favorite Bible characters. He’s the one who always opens his mouth before his brain has switched into gear and that’s a failing I have a lot of sympathy with. Remember when the disciples were alone on the boat out in the middle of the Sea of Galilee and they saw Jesus walking ...read more

    Jonah did not know the mind of God or feel the heart of God or accept the will of God. Therefore Jonah quarrels with God, quits on God and is quietened by God.

    INTRODUCTION I like Charles Swindoll’s outline of the Book of Jonah. He says in chapter 1 Jonah is running away from God; in chapter 2 Jonah is running to God; in chapter 3 Jonah is running with God; and, in chapter 4 Jonah is running against God. I have preached a message on each of the first ...read more

    Disciples Must Spread The Gospel

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Feb 22, 2022
     | 1,125 views

    It is past time that the disciples of Jesus Christ start fighting for the Kingdom of God. We must fight back against the wokeness that is trying to destroy to the church.

    Disciples Must Spread the Gospel Mark 14:1-2 Rev. Dr. Michael H. Koplitz 1 Now the Passover and Unleavened Bread were two days away; and the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how to seize Him by stealth and kill Him; 2 for they were saying, “Not during the festival, otherwise there might ...read more

    If you walk in the Spirit, you'll not fulfill the lusts of the flesh.

    We must remember that we must not judge the meaning of the Word of God by what our lives are, but we must judge our lives by what the Word of God says. The 7th chapter of Romans is probably one of the most controversial, and I think one of the most misunderstood, chapters in the Bible. Romans ...read more

    This sermon explores how to embody humility, honor others, and heed God's guidance in our speech, as instructed in the book of James.

    Welcome, dear friends, to this sacred gathering where we come together to seek wisdom from the Word of God. We are here to draw from the life-giving fountain of Scripture, to drink deeply of its truths, and to let its life-transforming power wash over us. We stand on the precipice of a new ...read more

    I'm going to use Jesus' letter to the church at Sardis today to help us to become vigilant against becoming complacent.

    Today I want to talk about complacency. Complacency is defined as a feeling of pleasure or security many times while being unaware of any danger. I'm going to use Jesus' letter to the church at Sardis today to help us to become vigilant against becoming complacent. Our focal passage of ...read more

    Defending discipleship against division caused by loyalty to a human persona creates an ongoing allegiance to our Master and Lord.

    Introduction Today, we tread troubled waters. We may ‘strain at the oars’ so to speak. Pride will be confronted today. It may even be a little painful. Believe me when I say to you, “This is necessary; to be the real deal, to be genuine and authentic, to become the group of disciples which is the ...read more
