    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 7, 2024
     | 1,664 views

    We have a mighty God who can turn things around overnight. If only we can trust God and commit everything to Him in prayer, we will experience God’s miraculous intervention in our seemingly impossible situations.

    We read in Genesis 19:27-28, “Early the next morning Abraham hurried to the place where he had stood in the presence of the LORD. He looked down at Sodom and Gomorrah and the whole valley and saw rising from the land, like smoke from a huge furnace.” (GNB) God had revealed to Abraham that He was ...read more

    Many of us have had moments when we expected God to act a certain way, only to be surprised by how He actually revealed Himself. Perhaps you were praying for a breakthrough, but God brought transformation in a different form.

    The Unexpected Jesus: Discovering God in Surprising Ways Introduction Today, I want to explore a theme that could radically transform your relationship with God: the idea that Jesus often shows up in ways we least expect.

  • Praying When I Am Stressed Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Sep 9, 2024
     | 1,097 views

    David speaks to God before he speaks to the people who are causing the problem. So many times, we reverse this. If we have a problem with someone, we talk to them first and only talk to God as a last resort.

    I want to talk to you about turning to God prayer to destress your home for the next few minutes. We launch a new series where we are looking at four attitudes that every home should have in the coming weeks. I invite you to find Psalm 4 with me. Children and parents are stressed! Parents face ...read more

  • Sermon # 20 - A Repentant Heart Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 25, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 976 views

    Jonah was brought to the depths and after being battered in the belly of a big fish, Jonah repented and turned back to God. Rebellion is detrimental to us and only those who repent and get back to God can fulfill His purposes for their lives.

    For this study and meditation we will read, Jonah 1:17, “When Jonah fell into the sea, the LORD chose a very big fish to swallow Jonah. He was in the stomach of the fish for three days and three nights.” (ERV) When Jonah disobeyed God, and voyaged in the opposite direction to the place God bid him ...read more

     | 1,008 views

    The rest provided by God energizes us for God’s Kingdom Business, and it all comes down to a matter of faith. Will we trust and believe? And so, the rest that energizes us to engage this world is a rest that can only be found in Jesus Christ.

    An Energizing Rest Watch on YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6RmLBe143tg&t=39s I wanted to end our series on Energizing to Engage with the topic of rest, and that’s because the rest provided by God energizes us for God’s Kingdom purposes.

  • God’s Promises Through His Savior Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Jul 13, 2025
     | 276 views

    God's promises of protection, provision, and upholding a covenant with His people are a wonderful focal point for the Christian today. However, these ALL come with a catch and that catch is: The only way to benefit from any of this is to receive the promise yourself!

    Isaiah, Part 25 God’s Promises through His Savior Isaiah 61:1-11; Luke 4:17-21 Dismiss kids for Children’s Church and Nursery (9 and under) - Welcome to Seasons – intro – we are so glad you’ve come to worship today - Continuing our series in Isaiah: we’ll unpack Ch 61 today and 62 ...read more

  • Enter Through The Narrow Door!

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Aug 26, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 727 views

    In this Gospel Lesson we hear our Savior speak words of warning and encouragement. Jesus said that there is only one way to enter heaven. He said that we should make every effort to: “ENTER THROUGH THE NARROW DOOR”

    “How do you get into heaven?” A Sunday school teacher asked that question of her 2nd grade class. It seemed like a simple question for a group of little Lutherans. But no hands went up. Silence. Crickets. The teacher was confident that the students knew the answer, so she waited patiently. ...read more

  • Clothed With Christ Series

     | 889 views

    Have you ever tried to prove yourself—only to realize the gift was already yours? In Galatians 3, Paul reminds us that we don’t need to earn God’s love—we’re already clothed in Christ.

    I remember the first suit I ever bought for myself. It was 1988, and I was working at Men’s Wearhouse—so I had access to the good stuff, not Hart, Shafner, and Marx, but high quality suits. I picked out a charcoal gray, double-breasted suit with chalk line pinstripes. Sharp. Classic. It was a $300 ...read more

     | 634 views

    I believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit. I use a glass filled with water. Then I take the full glass and submerged in a bucket of water. The glass is not only full but completely surrounded by water. I liken this unto the infilling of the Holy Spirit.

    In the Christian life, there is only one audience that matters—our Heavenly Father. In Matthew 6, Jesus teaches us to live for the Audience of One. He warns us not to perform righteousness before others but to pursue a life that pleases God alone.

And Live for an Audience of One: The Secret Life of a True Disciple - Matthew 6:1-18 Introduction: Living for the Audience of One There’s an old story about a young violinist who practised day and night for years.

    Contributed by Joseph Ondu on Nov 17, 2025
     | 186 views

    Noah’s obedience is a challenge to every believer. It is not enough to hear God’s Word; we must follow it carefully and consistently. The preservation of Noah’s family shows that righteousness does not only benefit an individual; it becomes a covering for generations.

    Genesis Chapter 6: The Corruption of Humanity and the Grace of God Introduction Genesis chapter 6 marks a turning point in the story of humanity. What began as a creation filled with beauty, order, and divine purpose has now descended into deep corruption. The chapter shows the seriousness of ...read more

     | 73 views

    One of the greatest questions we may face in our journey of faith is: "What can we hold onto for strength to endure in our belief?" Jesus clarifies this with a declaration that ONLY the Son of God could make!!

    based on 1 rating
     | 670 views

    Ishmael's story teaches us the importance of trusting God’s timing and avoiding decisions based on impatience. While human efforts can bring temporary success, only God’s promises bring true fulfilment.

    CHARACTER STUDY OF ISHMAEL – SON OF ABRAHAM AND HAGAR By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Genesis 16:10-12 "The angel of the Lord also said to her, 'I will surely multiply your offspring so that they cannot be numbered for multitude.' And the angel of the Lord said to her, 'Behold, ...read more

  • An Extraordinary Commission (Part 1)

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 9, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 705 views

    Does Jesus still call and empower believers to do bold and amazing things in His name, like healing the sick, raising the dead, and casting out demons? Does this passage only apply to the first apostles, or can it be applied to us?

    I have entitled our sermon this morning, “An Extraordinary Commission,” and this is Part 1 of a two-part message. I want to begin by saying that I was raised in a small country church with a pastor who loved the Lord and His people, and proclaimed only the basics, like sin, repentance, salvation, ...read more

    Contributed by SermonCentral on Sep 11, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,131 views

    Its only when we remove ourselves and the word 'if' from the equation, and trust God to do the impossible, that we truly step into faith. The story of David is not a question of 'if', but a testament to his faith. Are you willing to do the same?

    Introduction: Imagine a scenario where a king needed a faithful servant and had to choose between two candidates. He hired both individuals and instructed them to fill a basket with water from a nearby well. The king promised to inspect their work in the evening. One of the men became discouraged, ...read more
