Will You Remember Me?

Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 27, 2025

God remembers us in life and in death; through Christ’s resurrection we are known, valued, and restored to everlasting, resurrected life with Him.

I. THE QUESTION THAT HAUNTS THE HUMAN HEART When I was a little boy, I used to imagine my own death. I didn’t understand theology, I didn’t know Greek or Hebrew, I didn’t know about immortality or resurrection. I only knew the ache inside a child’s heart. I would picture myself buried in the ...read more

The Name We Claim Series

Contributed by Johnny Wilson on Feb 10, 2009

Early believers were able to face opposition and tribulation because they focused upon their identity, following Jesus. What is our identity?

Sometimes, we get suckered in by the idea that identity and relationship are not important. We buy into Shakespeare’s rhetorical question and answer from Act II, Scene II of Romeo and Juliet: What is in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet. We ...read more

Christ’s Childhood Series

Contributed by Paul Clemente on Aug 22, 2011

As Christians, we have responsibilities on earth (family, work, school, society, etc…), but we must always remember where we ultimately belong (we are citizens of heaven)!

When Jesus Christ was on earth, He was fully man and fully God! This of course is a mystery, but it is truth. This is similar to the truth and mystery of God is One but exists in Three Persons. If Jesus Christ was fully man and fully God on earth, how was His growing up? God gives us a glimpse of ...read more

One With Christ ~ Christ Series

Contributed by Ava Ch on May 11, 2025

This sermon is part of a three-week Stewardship Series about the communion commitment of "one with Christ, one with each other, and one in ministry to all." Three strands of one binding together in one cord that cannot be broken as we commit ourselves to the kingdom of God.

Opening Illustration:?Many of us love receiving gifts—birthdays, holidays, anniversaries. But have you noticed that the most meaningful gifts are not the ones that fade or break but connect us to someone’s love? A letter. A family heirloom. A handmade card from a child. These are gifts that hold ...read more

Contributed by Darryl Klassen on Feb 28, 2006

This is the fourth sign the Gospel of John gives us revealing the identity of Jesus. The feeding of the 5000 is more than a miraculous feeding.

GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD… When I hold a hockey puck in my hands, it’s just a hockey puck. But when you place that hockey puck in the hands of Team Canada…aaahhhh, it’s just a hockey puck.

"I Am Gifted" Series

Contributed by Sean Harder on Mar 5, 2014

What Does It Mean To Be "In Christ"?

Contributed by Bruce Willis on Dec 21, 2006

This sermon seeks to contrast the difference in the persons life who is "in Christ" as opposed to one who is "in Adam" from the perspective of The Exchanged Life.

In those four verses what phrase is referred to three times? It’s the phrase “in Christ” or “in Him” meaning Christ. So my question and the subject of this sermon is: “What does it mean to be in Christ?” For a couple of weeks now, I’ve talked about what it means to be “in Adam.” In fact, 1 ...read more
