    Beast From The Land Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Feb 3, 2017
     | 7,394 views

    If the second beast has the horns of a lamb, and he speaks like a dragon, the very voice of Satan is heard when he speaks. The mode of Satan’s language is the lie; he is the father of lies (John 8:44).

    A Litmus Test Of Spiritual Well-Beng

    Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on Mar 5, 2022
     | 1,387 views

    Using the analogy of a litmus test, this sermon juxtaposes the traits of arrogance over against the traits that reflect the DNA of love. It explores the inclusion of 1 Corinthians 13 sandwiched between chapters 12 and 14.

    “Litmus test” is a process used to determine the nature of something. In the 14th century scientists discovered that litmus, a mixture of colored organic compounds obtained from lichen, turns red in acid solutions and blue in alkaline solutions and, thus, can be used as an acid-base indicator. ...read more

    This is a series of sermons based upon 1 John that focuses on the foundation of the Christian experience, love and fellowship with God. 1 John is about application of these two themes. This is sermon 4 of 14, a series about a genuine relationship with God and right living.

    What mother ever gives birth to a child with the goal for the child to remain a baby, never to grow into maturity? What mother would ever delight in seeing her child go immediately from infancy to heaven? On this day, my heart is heavy when I think about the children who never get to enjoy their ...read more

    Do you really want to find life and fulfillment? Be around people of wisdom who lead you to the path of wisdom and point you to the person of Wisdom - Jesus.

    What is godliness? Who even uses this term “godly” today to describe fellow Christians in the church? Is this something that we personally aspire to?

    Cosy In The Culture Series

     | 1,779 views

    The story of Esther is an amazing story of how God can use His people to accomplish His will. But Mordecai and Esther were not always the heroes. Much like our world today, Esther and Mordecai were cosy in their culture. As Christians, we need to be different from the world.

    God’s grace awakens us from spiritual slumber, inviting us to embrace Christ’s love, leave behind darkness, and live each day clothed in His light.

    Some mornings feel like mercy. The light slips under the blinds, the scent of coffee drifts through the house, and you think, “I can do today.” Other mornings feel heavy. The alarm sounds like a siren, the covers cling like chains, and your mind measures all the miles ahead. We’ve all known both ...read more

    God has uniquely created and called each person to serve others, turning ordinary moments into purposeful opportunities to reflect His love and grace.

    Some mornings the mirror asks more questions than it answers. You brush your teeth, pour the coffee, scroll the headlines, and somewhere between the toast and the traffic you whisper, “Lord, why am I here? What do You want with a Tuesday like this?” If that’s you, you’re in good company today. God ...read more
