  • The Holy Miracle Series

    Contributed by Randy Shepard on Jan 5, 2019
     | 3,062 views

    The miracle of Christmas is the God became flesh so that every one of His Children would know that he or she is valued and highly favored by God.

    Christmas eve is my favorite day of the year. Some of you may find that odd especially if you know that I love everything about Christmas. And, I do love everything about Christmas. I love the lights, the decorations, the eggnog, the cookies, and my grandma’s homemade banana pudding that my mom ...read more

  • The Calling Of The Twelve Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on May 10, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,128 views

    Jesus called twelve men to serve as disciples. These men came from different backgrounds, varied occupations, and unique personalities. Jesus used ordinary men in extraordinary ways. That should challenge and encourage every believer.

    The Calling of the Twelve Mark 3: 13-21 Surely you would agree that our study thus far has revealed a very busy, and often difficult time for Jesus. His ministry had gained momentum and immense popularity among the common people. Everywhere Jesus went, He was met with large crowds of people, all ...read more

    Jesus said the gates of hell will not destroy His Church (Matthew 16:18). He was not talking about a building. People are the Church. Let’s look at Luke 21:5-19 and discuss fear and enduring to the end.

  • New Life, New Way

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,431 views

    As we emerge "this side of Easter," Luke's description of the early church community in Acts makes us think deeply about the effects Jesus' resurrection might actually have on our lives.

    “Ahhhhhh. Those were the days!” So begins one of our favorite pastimes, recalling the pastimes. But it never seems to take too long before eyes start glazing over or heads start shaking. Because there’s nothing like a good dose of nostalgia to make life seem pretty awful. And for ...read more

  • "Wwjd?"

    Contributed by Ken Sauer on Sep 27, 2014
     | 6,311 views

    A sermon about adopting the attitude of Christ.

    Philippians 2:1-13 "WWJD?" Back in 1989, a youth group created the acronym WWJD? The idea caught on and some advertisers made some serious money on the concept. By the 1990's just about everyone was familiar with WWJD? Bumper-stickers, Bible covers, tee-shirts, jewelry, and more came out of ...read more

  • Fire: Pentecost Is The Norm - 14 Of 14 Series

    Contributed by Russell Metcalfe on Jan 28, 2021
     | 2,335 views

    What is Pentecost? Why should anyone call it one of the "big three" Christian holy days? Do you know?

    May 31, 1998 In the last days, God declares, I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh ... Acts 2:17 Today we celebrate one of the three great days of the entire church year. Everyone celebrates Christmas, and most people even know that it has to do with the birth of Jesus, whether or not they ...read more

  • Our Lord And Our Land Series

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 22, 2021
     | 1,429 views

    Paul was proud to be a Roman citizen. It was not because the empire was perfect, but because his citizenship gave him rights that were vital to his personal dignity, and to his service for God.

    Human rights is a major issue in our world today, but it is not a new issue. Even under the Roman Emperor men had rights and they were precious. The Apostle Paul was unjustly arrested. He was about to be beaten when he calmly asked the Roman Centurion in charge if it was lawful to scourge a man ...read more

  • Compromise Series

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 22, 2021
     | 5,666 views

    I think there are at least three kinds of compromise, and each of them is illustrated by Daniel's experience in Babylon.

    A man who had been a notorious thief was telling a friend how going to church had really changed his life. He was in a store just that week and saw the nicest pair of boots. They were just his size, and while he was there the owner of the store stepped out. He could have easily slipped them under ...read more

  • Addressing Liberal Theology: Was Jesus Nicer Than Thou?

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 30, 2021
     | 1,353 views

    If you interact on the web, or with folks in your hometown you may come across Christians who tend to believe that Jesus Christ was the nicest of nice person who ever walked the planet.

    If you interact on the web, or with folks in your hometown you may come across Christians who tend to believe that Jesus Christ was the nicest of nice person who ever walked the planet. This Jesus apparently never offended anyone. This Jesus was all inclusive. This Jesus endorsed gay marriage. ...read more

  • Peace, The Church And Society

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Apr 3, 2015
     | 2,602 views

    God will deal with the evil people of this world who do not repent and turn from their evil ways. We as members of the church are not to judge but are to be shepherds of the sheep, seekers of the lost, friends of sinners, the poor and broken-hearted.

    “You have heard it said of old, an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, but I say unto you; do not resist the evil person. If he strikes you on the left, turn to him on the right”. Jesus tells us in Matthew 5 verses 38-39 not to contribute to further violence by retribution, but ...read more

  • Preparation For Ministry 2: Understanding Power Series

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Apr 11, 2021
     | 1,177 views

    The devil's offer of giving to Jesus authority over all the nations might have seemed like an easy shortcut to fulfill his calling, but of course, Jesus saw through the temptation of power. He saw power far above coercion. He saw the power of love and servanthood.

    When you hear me say the word, “power,” I’ll bet it can stir up all sorts of feelings inside. On one hand it may bring memories of a time when someone used power over you in a painful and destructive way and you cringe a bit inside. On the other hand it may stir up a hope of having power ...read more

  • The Week That Changed The World: The Day Jesus Conquered His Critics Series

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 3, 2021
     | 2,039 views

    In His final week of public ministry, Jesus confronted a series of challenging questions His enemies attempted to use as traps. One question dealt with the issue of paying taxes to Caesar. Jesus' surprising answer would settle the issues of loyalty and obligation to both God and Caesar.

    Jesus had spent the first days of His final week shaking up the status quo concerning the worship of the LORD, the reverence due to the House of God, and to recall its purpose. He exposed the moneymaking schemes of the religious leaders, rebuked their practices, and drove out the merchants who ...read more

  • "Looking Good Is Not Enough”

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,073 views

    Jesus challenged the Pharisees..... religion is useless and worthless, ineffective when it substitutes a human plan of salvation for God's plan of redemption; when it rests upon man's works. (Illus. Pharisee robes and rules.) (Illus. what people do to look better)

    In Jesus Holy Name Pentecost XIV August 29, 2021 Text: Mark 7:1-14 “Looking Good Is Not Enough” Recently “People” magazine selected the 50 most beautiful people in the world, I wasn't on the list. It was quite a blow. Years ago Cindy Crawford was a heartthrob for many men and ...read more
