    What is our reason for living? What are the factors why we get up in the morning? After this pandemic, what happened to our faith? Is it still alive? We need the power of God to make it alive once more.

    Intro Good morning and Happy 43rd Anniversary to all of us. I hope many of us witnessed the glory of God in our church as we watched last Saturday, October 30, 2021 our virtual anniversary here in our GA church. With our anniversary theme “Triumphant Hope”, I know that everyone already had our own ...read more

    Contributed by Ryan Akers on May 7, 2009
     | 4,221 views

    Conflict is unavoidable and spiritual conflict is no different. This message looks at how Paul deals with spiritual conflict amongst the religious and how we still today battle between being religious and being saved by faith alone.

    Illuminate Part 6- Conquering Conflict Pastor Ryan Akers Have you ever felt like no matter what you do you will never be good enough? Job- no matter how hard you work, how many extra hours you put in, how much you give up to be the best you always seem to get passed over for promotions, or your ...read more

    Truths Worth Fighting For

    Contributed by Michael Stark on May 26, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,994 views

    Some truths, those that define the Faith of Christ the Lord, demand that we stand firm in defending them against distortion. The faithful depend upon each of us as followers of Christ to defend the Faith, speaking the truth in love.

    “Some men came down from Judea and were teaching the brothers, ‘Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.’ And after Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and debate with them, Paul and Barnabas and some of the others were appointed to go up to Jerusalem ...read more

    Man Has Twisted, Contorted, Inverted, And Opposed All God’s Creation – Part 1 – Genesis Chapter 1 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 27, 2023
     | 1,417 views

    Every aspect of God’s perfect creation in Genesis 1 has been inverted by man to make monstrosities out of what God created and said, “It is good.” Satan is the one who will destroy and mangle all for evil. We look at these items Satan has mangled, twisted and inverted.

    MAN HAS TWISTED, CONTORTED, INVERTED, AND OPPOSED ALL GOD’S CREATION – PART 1 – GENESIS CHAPTER 1 We are now living in a twisted, contorted and inverted world. In fact the change has not been a slow creeping of the years, but a very rapid convolution that has ascended from the pit and into the ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 4, 2023
     | 1,013 views

    We continue the study in Genesis chapter 1 to see how sinful and deluded man has overturned all that God set in place, inverting and destroying it. We especially look at evolution and God is Light. Man’s inversion of God’s order causes chaos and growing evil.

    MAN HAS TWISTED, CONTORTED, INVERTED, AND OPPOSED ALL GOD’S CREATION – PART 2 GENESIS CHAPTER 1 In Part 1 we looked at how man has taken what belongs to God and cancelled God out of the whole matter. The self-deceived in the world dismiss God and His creation and wallow in their own intelligence ...read more

    God's math when it comes to grace.

    8 “Those who cling to worthless idols forfeit the grace that could be theirs.” (Jonah 2 – NIV) 15-17 Yet the rescuing gift is not exactly parallel to the death-dealing sin. If one man’s sin put crowds of people at the dead-end abyss of separation from God, just think what ...read more

    The cure for those who are in Jesus by faith is much more powerful than the curse for those who are in Adam by nature

    It seems that almost every time I turn on my TV lately there is a commercial for some new prescription drug. And I’ve got to tell you that when I watch most of those commercials, the required disclaimers make it seem to me like the cure is often worse than the disease. These two clips from a ...read more
