Crowns You With Lovingkindness And Tender Mercies PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 5, 2025

God meets us in our lowest places, lifts us with His grace, and restores us with lovingkindness, inviting us to live in grateful trust.

Have you ever felt like life lowered you into a pit and then took the ladder away? The walls are slick with worry, the floor is sticky with regret, and every echo from the past seems louder than hope. David knew that feeling. He wrote like a man who had mud on his boots and a song in his mouth. In ...read more

The Birth Of The Messiah Foretold

Contributed by Peter Reece on Nov 27, 2022

The genealogy of Jesus in Matthew's gospel looks ultra boring, but does in fact have important things to say. Matthew shows not only that Jesus is the Messiah, but He is the only possible Messiah.

I love watching all those television programmes where people explore their ancestry. Do you? In the words of the Ancestry website – it brings their back-story to life. Which is exactly what Matthew seeks to do with his genealogy of Jesus. Matthew wants to bring the back-story if Jesus, the ...read more

Holding On To Hope Series

Contributed by Brian Bill on Aug 15, 2022

To get through your groaning, focus on the glory to come.

Some time ago, George Barna polled adults: “If you could ask God one question, what would you ask?” The top response was, “Why is there pain and suffering in the world?” I can’t think of anything more universal to the human experience than suffering. In fact, many people point to the problem of ...read more

The Three "onlys" All Worked Out (Joshua 21:43-45, 22:1-9) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 28, 2022

Joshua's book tension results from the 3 "onlys" of ch. 1. But they all work out: God is faithful, Joshua is brave, and the people obey.

When we started this study on Joshua, it was kind of overwhelming. How can you tell what you're supposed to focus on as you read? How can you tell what's important to the author? Usually what biblical authors do near the start of their books is give you some help in this. They'll ...read more

A Warning Given

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Jan 30, 2022

God has set warnings that come out of His word. These warnings are so we can get our lives right with God. If I could give a summary statement about Sunday’s message it would be, “A Warning Given,” “A Warning Taken,” and “A Deliverance Achieved.”

A Warning Given Ezekiel 33:3-5 Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-egtJBTubwE When it comes to warnings, here in America we have a whole bunch of systems designed to warn of impending danger.

A Wrestling Match With God

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Sep 12, 2022

Jacob needed to deepen his relationship with God. He also needed an object lesson that would teach him some things about the way he related to God. Because Jacob needed a change. Most of us need that too, both the lesson and often the change.

Alba 4-21-13 A Wrestling Match With God Genesis 32:22-32 Most of you probably know about the song called “A Boy Named Sue” that was recorded by Johnny Cash.

PRETTY EASY TO FOLLOW! If God said it, “100% that it will happen!’ 100% that is it true! The Redeemer is working right where you are to redeem and restore what you lost!

Well, these super-promising words were spoken by the Prophet Isaiah to the Jews, and he was talking about something that would happen to the Jewish nation in the future; that of being exiled in foreign Babylon.
