    A sermon on the true "Saint Nicholas" and his love for Jesus Christ.

    Christmas: Is Santa for Real? Matthew 2:11; 6:1-4 One of the best aspects about Christmas, frankly, is going into stores or watching a parade and…as it gets near the end - there he is! It’s an odd looking fellow dressed in a red suit! His name, of course, is “Santa Claus” ...read more

    How To Be Confident In Crisis Series

    Contributed by Tom Shepard on Jan 29, 2016

     | 35,390 views

    This sermon looks at three ways people make bad decisions - three wrong moves in a crisis - and four anchors during a crisis.

    How To Be Confident in Crisis The Bible teaches that there are three kinds of storms in life: 1. Storms that we bring on ourselves (as Samson and his self-induced troubles) 2. Storms that God causes (as Jesus stilling the storm on Lake Galilee) 3. Storms that other people cause (as Paul and ...read more

    Paul’s point in this text is that the only way to be released from the Law was to die to it, and to be united to Christ.

    SET FREE TO BE THE BRIDE OF CHRIST Text: Romans 7:1-6 Introduction 1. Illustration: Evangelist Fred Brown used three images to describe the purpose of the law. First, he likened it to a dentist’s little mirror, which he sticks into the patient’s mouth. With the mirror he can detect any cavities. ...read more

    I didn't want to preach this sermon about Sarah's faith... but read the sermon to find out what I learned.

    Children’s story: Do you love your mommy? She loves you too. In fact, I don’t think she could imagine a life without you. Without you, she’d be very sad. Back in the Old Testament there’s the story of a woman who couldn’t have a little boy or girl. She didn’t think she’d EVER become a mommy. And ...read more

    Dream Come True

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Aug 19, 2023
     | 1,435 views

    We dream small, but God dreams big. Mary’s dream was a small one, limited by her time and place and circumstances. Yet when God called her, she became a part of the greatest event the world has ever known.

    What do you think of when you hear the phrase “American Dream”? All of us here are immigrants, one way or another.... Some have been here for two or three hundred years - or more! I think some of mine came in the 17th century. What did your ancestors come here for? Was it for religious freedom, or ...read more

    There are 1000s of different churches with their various views on baptism. Can they all be right? Probably not, but why aren't they all "right"?

    There was an antique collector passing through a small village when he saw an old man chopping wood with an ancient ax. “That’s a mighty old ax you have there,” he remarked. “Yep,” said the villager, “it once belonged to George Washington.” “George Washington??? Not really!" gasped the ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,790 views

    Proverbs 23 says we should "buy truth." But you'd think "truth" was highly valued enough in society that you wouldn't have to be told to pay for it. Why would God advise us buy it?

    (I spent a couple years as a student at Purdue University, and this is one of the jokes I heard there) There were a couple of students - one from IU and one from Notre Dame - standing beside a flagpole discussing something. About that time, a student from Purdue walked over and asked “What ya ...read more

    God loves multi-generational churches and He proves it in the Book of Titus as He specifically addresses the blessing and influence of the young and old. How can godly older people help my faith grow strong?

    One of my favorite country songs is a song written by Toby Keith. It was featured in the movie “The Mule.” The title is: “Don’t Let the Old Man In.” (Any of you ever heard the song?) The song was inspired by a conversation that Toby had with Clint Eastwood. Toby met Clint at a celebrity golf ...read more

    Don't Doubt It!

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on May 19, 2024
     | 814 views

    It can be hard to convince some people. Like doubting Thomas, they say, “I won't believe it until I see it!” Even then you can't convince some people. As they say, “A man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still.”

    Alba 5-19-2024 DON'T DOUBT IT! I John 1:1-4 The following statements were taken from official documents, newspapers and magazines widely read during their day. Listen to what the "authorities" had to say: 1840 - "Anyone traveling at the speed of thirty miles per hour would ...read more

    From The Unknown To The Known God

    Contributed by Derek Geldart on Nov 15, 2025

     | 213 views

    Believers are to engage an idol-filled modern culture with the same wisdom, compassion, and courageous clarity Paul displayed in Athens—understanding people’s longings, building bridges to the truth, and faithfully proclaiming the risen Christ!

    How do we, as Christ’s ambassadors, engage a modern culture with wisdom, courage, and gentleness—so that the gospel is not just another opinion in the noise, but a message carried on “beautiful feet” bringing good news? Everywhere we look, the signs of moral fracture are ...read more
