    Faith Causes Us To Live With A Purpose Series

    Contributed by Duane Wente on May 3, 2025
     | 530 views

    Faith does not call us to sit and wait for something big to happen — it calls us to live every day with purpose. God has gifted each of us uniquely, and true faith leads us to use those gifts in service to His mission. Living beyond belief means living out our calling.

    Though we are hopelessly lost in the storm of sin and powerless to save ourselves, God in His mercy sent Jesus Christ — fully God and fully man — to rescue us through His perfect obedience, sacrificial death, and victorious resurrection.

    God’s Rescue Plan Romans 3:10-12; Psalms 14:1-3; Colossians 1:19-20; Hebrews 10:23-25 Picture yourself lost at sea — no land in sight, tossed about by relentless waves of indifference, selfishness, and rebellion. The wind howls. The sky is dark. You grip whatever you can as each towering wave ...read more

    When Jesus left earth after His first visit, He promised that He would return. In this sermon, we will explore what happens when Christ returns.

    A. Once there was a minister waiting in line to have his car filled with gas just before a long holiday weekend. 1. The gas station attendant worked quickly, but there were many cars in line ahead of him. 2. Finally, the attendant motioned him toward the vacant pump. 3. The young attendant ...read more

    7 The Inviting Overcomer Series

    With these seven churches, Jesus has made it clear: Make NO mistake, JUDGMENT IS coming. But when you read through this Revelation from John and judgment is poured out, no one repents, no one turns back to God. And yet, God continues to reach out and invite all people, anyone, saying, “Come.”

    The world says your past defines you—but God says in Christ, you are a new creation. Your identity is not rooted in what you’ve done, but in who He declares you to be.

    Sermon # 29 - The Power Of Corporate Prayer Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jun 20, 2025

     | 742 views

    Something happens when people gather together to pray. The early church experienced this in a mighty way and they witnessed astounding miracles because they prayed together. Only when families and churches pray together will we be able to see a revival in these last days.

    For our meditation I have chosen Act 4:31,“And when they had prayed, the place in which they were assembled was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the Word of God with boldness.” (AFV) It is a fact that whenever we as a church gather and pray together, there will ...read more

    To Pay Or Not To Pay

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Jun 23, 2025
     | 322 views

    In chapter nine of First Corinthians, the apostle Paul speaks to the issue of paying the preacher. He says it is the right thing to do. On the other hand, he reminds the Corinthians that when he was with them, he did not accept a salary.

    Alba 6-22-2025 TO PAY OR NOT TO PAY I Corinthians 9:1-18 Today's subject is “To Pay or Not to Pay”, that is the question. There was a preacher who had just finished his sermon for the day and went to the back of the church for his usual greetings and handshaking. After shaking a few hands ...read more

    No Hometown Hero

    Some people return home to a hero's welcome, but when Jesus returned to Nazareth, His reception was just the opposite! This message does a deep dive into the possible reasons for this terrible welcome.

    I have entitled our message today, “No Hometown Hero.” This term is often used for an athlete who plays for their home team, having a major impact, like helping them win a championship. This athlete then goes off to play college or professional sports; and when he or she later returns to become a ...read more

    The sermon will explore the story of Jesus appearing to two disciples after his resurrection, emphasizing that his teachings and blessings are for all believers, not just the chosen few.

    Hello Church! Today we’re going to look at a story from the Gospel of Luke which took place the same day as Jesus’ resurrection. In fact, the resurrected Christ appears to two disciples walking towards a town called Emmaus. We’re going to discover that our God is a cruciform God, which means the ...read more

    God’s strength never fails; when we are weary, He renews us, teaching us to hope, trust, and find fresh power in His presence.

    Some of us walked in today with a brave face and a tired heart. Bills and busyness have been barking at your heels. Sleep has been thin. Relationships feel fragile. The headlines howl. And somewhere deep inside, a whisper rises: “I’m worn down.” If that’s you, friend, you are in good company. The ...read more
