     | 154 views

    None of us are perfect workers, praise God for using imperfect people.

    A. THE RICH YOUNG RULER: LUKE 18:18-23 1. He came to the right person. “There came one running, and kneeled to him, and asked him, ‘Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?’” (Mark 10:17). 2.

    Do We Value God's Wisdom Or Our Own?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Nov 17, 2025
     | 141 views

    Many see their own wisdom as being more important than the wisdom of God. This is their way of turning away from listening to God.

    Do We Value God's Wisdom or Our Own? 1 Corinthians 3:16-23 (18-21) 2 Corinthians 11:16 First Corinthians 3:16-23 is the third allegory Paul uses to clarify the connection between spiritual development (growth), works, and God's judgment of our endeavors. An accentuation here is on the ...read more

    Faith And Fealty Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Dec 1, 2025
     | 261 views

    As the disciples as Jesus to increase their faith, Jesus urges that faith is more a matter of quality than quantity. Our ultimate responsibility is faithful obedience.

    Faith is an interesting issue. Over the years, I’ve heard stories of people who seemed to demonstrate great faith as they recounted the ways that God has answered prayer. One such person was George Mueller. He lived from 1805-1898. In an era when people would pay “pew rents” in order to have ...read more

    You don’t have the power to obey until you make a choice to obey.

    A. WHAT WAS THE PROBLEM? 1. “In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in his own eyes” (21:25). a. No spiritual leadership to give godly direction. b. No one preached God’s standard. “In his own eyes.” c. When left to themselves, they turned to the left, i.e., to ...read more

    What Is A Miracle?

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Dec 29, 2025
     | 164 views

    The greatest miracle of all is knowing that things will come out right in the end because of God’s love for us.

    My brother Jeremy picked me up at the airport a couple of weeks ago when I flew to Pittsburgh. He isn’t from Pittsburgh, though, he’s from Alaska. So we relied on Mapquest to get from the airport to the seminary. Pittsburgh is the hardest city to drive in I know. Well, they tell me Boston is worse, ...read more

    Sweeter Than Honey: The Wisdom Of A Word-Soaked Life

    Contributed by Paul Dayao on Jan 10, 2026
     | 284 views

    This passage reveals that true wisdom is not found in the quantity of information we consume, but in a deep, daily love for God's Word that transforms our character and guards our steps from evil.

    Introduction: More Than Information We live in what people call the "Information Age." We have more data at our fingertips than any generation in human history. We can search for any fact in seconds. But as we look at the world around us—and sometimes even at our own lives—we have to ...read more

     | 307 views

    Why does this parable sound more like a life hack than a parable?

    - Some life hacks, according to people online (I haven’t tried these): - "For chores that I don't like to do (like washing a big pile of dishes), I set a timer for four minutes and tell myself I will do it for four minutes, and after the time goes off, I can stop if I want to.

    Lessons Of Faith From Ehud And Gideon

    Contributed by Kevin Call on Jan 19, 2026
     | 137 views

    The Book of Judges, in Hebrew, is also called (the Shophetim) Shophetim (שֹׁפְטִים) It is the Hebrew title for the Book of Judges, meaning "Judges," "Rulers," or "Deliverers," referring to the leaders who governed Israel. Of course, I’m talking about Ehud and Gideon.

    Cycles in history refer to the idea that patterns, events, and societal moods recur over time. It’s usually described as repeating rhythms of growth, stability, decline, and crisis, most famously theorized by Strauss-Howe in their "Fourth Turning" model. These cycles are said to recur ...read more

    Courage

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Jan 26, 2026
     | 337 views

    Christian courage is essential to faith; in fact, the Bible says we cannot enter heaven without it. This sermon reviews why courage is so important, and how we can strengthen our courage to obey God.

    This morning, I’d like us to think about Christian character. And specifically, a Christian virtue that we don’t usually hear much about from the pulpit. It’s mentioned only eight times in the New Testament, but it’s critically important, for at least two reasons. First of all, it’s important ...read more

    We spend so much time believing in “coincidence” that we take away the very will and direction from God.

    “The Providence Of God” Acts 15:30-35 We spend so much time believing in “coincidence” that we take away the very will and direction from God. I, for one, decided that there is no real coincidence for the child of the living God; but rather we have His mighty hand directing our lives even if it ...read more

    Good morning, brothers and sisters in Christ. In our walk with God, there are moments when we’re challenged, when we’re called to step out of our comfort zones, to evaluate the lives we lead. Today, we will be diving deep into a passage from 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 that serves as a reminder of the ...read more

    This sermon explores cultivating a steadfast, fruitful faith through fostering fellowship, obedience to Jesus, and spiritual growth, as exemplified in Acts 11:22-24.

    Good morning, beloved family. Today, I want to ask a simple question for us to consider: How do we cultivate a faith that is not only steadfast but also fruitful?
