    Making sure we are rooted and grounded in Christ that brings hope and life not just looking good and decorated on the outside like our Christmas Tree which are dying and life-less

    Rooted and Grounded in Christ As I was pondering on what to share today, I began to think about my Christmas tree...yes my Christmas tree. I'm not sure what your typical tradition is, but we typically put up our tree as soon as possible after Thanksgiving day. And of course, we always get a REAL ...read more

    Invitation To An Encounter With God

    Contributed by Dr. Madana Kumar, Phd on Feb 26, 2018
     | 4,502 views

    It is certainly possible for us to miss the presence of God wherever we are, and be immersed in many other activities. How about being focused on seeking an encounter with God?

    Good evening. I realise that there are three categories of people here. First category are the new students who are eager to know what lies ahead of them.

    Why did Jesus give us this prayer?”

    Who has been watching the Olympics this week? There was a lot of excitement around the newest event, snow-board-cross. We do like new things, don’t we. Even the winter Olympics themselves are, in a way, new. The Ancient Greeks didn’t ski, or ice skate. In fact, the first 13 Olympiads featured only ...read more

    Responding to sinners with grace imitates God’s own treatment of us.

    Preacher David Hoke tells a great story about a weary truck driver who pulled his rig into an all night truck stop late one summer evening in Broken Bow, NE. He was tired and hungry. The waitress had just served him when three tough looking, leath-er-jacketed bikers of the Hell's Angels type ...read more

    Worry Warts Series

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Nov 24, 2022
     | 1,372 views

    If you really believe that God is in charge, and that He loves you and will meet your needs, then you can live in faith rather than in fear.

    Anxiety is no joke. Maybe that’s why there are so many jokes about it. Take the old Peanuts cartoon that shows Linus coming up to Charlie Brown, dragging his blan-ket as he observes, “You look kinda depressed.” “I worry about school a lot,” Charlie replies. Then he adds, “I worry about my worrying ...read more

    Suffering is part of the process of changing us into people fit for the kingdom of God.

    Everybody knows that Christians shouldn’t boast, right? Some people are so leery of boasting that they hide the gifts God has given them in the mistaken notion that God will be pleased with their humility. But that’s just as bad as seeking every opportunity to grab the limelight, because God can’t ...read more

    The day of the Lord is indeed near. For us, every day is his.

    Have you ever fantasized about living in some other time in history? What is it about that period that appeals to you? People have often tended to look back at earlier, simpler days with a sort of nostalgia, longing for a time when the mail held nothing worse than unsolicited requests for money or ...read more

    The Sign Of The Cross Series

    Contributed by Mike Lewis on Dec 29, 2022
     | 2,114 views

    The people during the time of Jesus’ crucifixion also wrote a sign and there were some people who didn’t like what it said while others saw it as a necessary statement about the man hanging on that cross. This morning we are going to share in hearing about the Sign of the Cross.

    WELCOME & INTRODUCTION WARNING LABELS We live in a world that unfortunately has an abundance of people who do things they shouldn’t.

     | 3,863 views

    Jesus said, 'You therefore must be perfect'. What an unreasonable demand! And yet, there are so many reasons to strive for it.

    INTRODUCTION We’re continuing in our series in the Sermon on the Mount. In our passage for today, Jesus starts by saying, ‘Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.’ What do you think of that!? Back in March I told you about an interview I heard on Radio 4.

    Don't Walk Away From An Answered Prayer

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 12, 2022
     | 2,503 views

    We tend to pray for the salvation of someone we know, or for a job, or for the return of the LORD, or some other issue, and He answers it in a way that either we don't expect or like. Let's not forget that God is in charge. His will overrides our ideals.

    I want to share with you an insight that the LORD impressed upon me pertaining to prayer and how the LORD graciously answers our petitions and requests presented before Him. You are probably familiar with the saying that He answers our prayers three ways: Either "Yes", "No", ...read more

    In this message I want to challenge the listener that if the plan of Jesus was correct and crucial when it was delivered, then it is crucial today!

    Mat 28:16-20 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them. (17) And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted. (18) And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. (19) Go ye ...read more

    Finding Rest Matthew 11:28-30 Good morning everyone, today we are going to look at Jesus words to us about rest. For some of us, you’ll see that you need rest.

    Where Are You? Pt. 4 - Adulting SERMON BUMPER I. Introduction I remember learning in school that there are a lot of types of question. There are loaded questions. There are leading questions.
