    (4 Of 4) The Final Call Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 27, 2025
     | 152 views

    The Final Call proclaims God’s everlasting gospel, unmasks deception, and anchors believers in worship, resurrection hope, and patient endurance until Christ’s return.

    God’s Last Word Is Gospel We all know that in life, the last word carries weight. In a courtroom, hours of argument and piles of evidence are settled with one sentence: “Not guilty” or “Guilty as charged.” At a wedding, all the flowers, music, and vows lead to that one moment: “I now pronounce ...read more

    (6) Eyes Wide Open Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 28, 2025
     | 191 views

    John's 6th sign. Jesus calls us to cast off bitterness and blame, receive His mercy, and follow Him with eyes wide open to new life.

    Part One Jesus was on His way out of Jericho. Passover crowds filled the road. The noise of merchants and pilgrims echoed off the stone walls. And on that roadside sat a blind man named Bartimaeus—son of Timaeus. That name is striking. Timaeus means honorable. But nothing about this scene ...read more

    The Cross Marks The Spot

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 7, 2025
     | 99 views

    At Calvary, heaven’s greatest treasure was revealed — where justice and mercy meet, sin is broken, and every seeker finds redemption through Christ’s cross.

    INTRODUCTION — THE TREASURE WE’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR Every child dreams of buried treasure. We’ve all seen the movies — a worn map, a red “X,” a promise whispered through time: “Somewhere out there, something precious is waiting to be found.” But what if I told you that the greatest treasure in the ...read more

    You Can Get There From Here

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 9, 2025
     | 70 views

    Hezekiah’s revival shows that true renewal begins with repentance — a turning from sin and toward God that opens the floodgates of divine mercy.

    Sometimes revival comes in such gradual ways. Without even realizing when it all began, we find ourselves enjoying the spiritual blessings and joy that revival brings. Sometimes revival comes in response to conflict, or persecution, or maybe tragedy. Our complacency, our apathy, is shattered by ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 339 views

    The more we handle the true Gospel of Jesus Christ, the more quickly we will recognise a counterfeit gospel when we hear it.

    Go! And Guard the True Gospel - Galatians 1:6–9 Galatians 1:6–9 (NLT): “I am shocked that you are turning away so soon from God, who called you to himself through the loving mercy of Christ. You are following a different way that pretends to be the Good News but is not the Good News at all. You ...read more

    The Hard Saying

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 20, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 127 views

    Jesus’ hardest saying reveals revival’s secret: life begins when we feed daily on His presence instead of our pride.

    The Shocking Sentence Every follower of Jesus eventually stumbles over a sentence He spoke. Some verses cradle you. Some feed you. And then there’s the one that stops you cold: > “Unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you.” It’s not embroidered ...read more

    Contributed by Dean Courtier on Oct 21, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 397 views

    If salvation were earned by good works, heaven would be full of people boasting about what they did. But heaven is filled with people praising what Jesus did.

    Go! And Live by Grace Alone – The Gift You Could Never Earn - Ephesians 2:8–9 Ephesians 2:8–9 (NLT) – “God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about ...read more

    The Wounds That Won

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 22, 2025
     | 162 views

    Christ’s wounds transformed evil into redemption; His blood conquered sin, and His love still calls sinners home to eternal victory.

    It was early morning on a highway outside the city when traffic stopped for a terrible sight. A delivery truck had struck a small car and pushed it off the road. Within moments, a few drivers left their vehicles, running toward the wreck. One man, a paramedic on his way home, crawled into the ...read more

     | 110 views

    Jesus fulfilled Israel’s Exodus so we could live it—redeemed from bondage, guided by grace, and walking home toward eternal rest.

    INTRODUCTION — A Song and a Hunger There’s a singer named Neil Diamond who once said that every song he writes is really about one thing — the journey home. He didn’t mean a street address; he meant that deep pull inside every human heart to return to where you truly belong. Maybe that’s why so ...read more

    OPENING – THE CROOKED FURROW I was fifteen the summer an old farmer in Tennessee handed me the biggest responsibility I’d ever had. “Take the tractor,” he said, “and plow that field.” It was no small patch of ground.

    God’s delay is mercy. Return to Jesus, repent together, walk by faith. Step into grace. Cross the river. Hope ahead, always.

    (From Bitter to Better While We Wait) There’s a tiny spacecraft drifting through darkness right now. You can’t see it with your eyes. No telescope can frame it.

    Feed The Flock

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 3, 2025
     | 106 views

    God calls pastors to shepherd His flock willingly, humbly, and faithfully—feeding souls, guarding hearts, and awaiting the unfading crown from the Chief Shepherd.

    There is a peculiar ache that only a pastor knows. It’s the ache that comes from carrying both the Word of God and the weight of His people. It’s the midnight burden that wakes you when everyone else sleeps. It’s the sound of the phone ringing when your own heart is still raw from yesterday’s ...read more
