     | 338 views

    The Bible, the infallible Word of God, is not merely a record of what God said once, but the living Word of God still speaking today - God’s revelation to humanity. It is God’s heart and God’s truth, given so we can know Him and live for Him.

    Go! And… Believe the Word: The Bible is the Infallible Word of God Introduction — The Voice of God in Your Hands Church, let me begin with a picture. Imagine you receive a personal letter from the King of Kings. Not typed up by a secretary, not relayed through a messenger, but written by His own ...read more

     | 998 views

    The fourth reaction to Jesus’ claims comes from the religious and civil authorities. It paints a clear picture of men in every generation who reject or oppose Jesus. That’s because what Jesus says is tragic for all unbelievers.

    We have been studying the reactions of the people to Jesus’ claims for the past 3 studies. Tonight, we are going to look at a fourth reaction. The fourth reaction to Jesus’ claims comes from the religious and civil authorities. It paints a clear picture of men in every generation who reject or ...read more

    A man with two severe handicaps--deaf and mute--was brought to Jesus. Take a look at what our Lord did for this man, and what He used to heal him.

    Text: Mark 7:31-37, KJV 31 And again, departing from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon, he came unto the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis. 32 And they bring unto him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his speech; and they beseech him to put his hand upon him. 33 And ...read more

    I cannot imagine living the Christian in isolation without your fellowship and the fellowship of God.

    Introduction Today as we conclude our sermon series on Light in the Darkness, the challenge for each one of us is to keep the light the God’s says that we can walk in shinning bright in our lives. However, if we are honest there might be short spans of time or maybe even longer spans, let’s call ...read more

    To encourage believers to acknowledge God's majesty, express gratitude for His blessings, and seek His guidance in all aspects of life.

    Good morning, Church! Today, we're going to look at 1 Chronicles 16: 7-14. Today's sermon will cover acknowledging, expressing gratitude, and seeking guidance from the Almighty. Max Lucado once said, "A man who wants to lead the orchestra must turn his back on the crowd." In the scripture we read, ...read more

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 12, 2025
     | 97 views

    A reflective call for a modern generation to stop hiding behind progress and rediscover God’s presence through honest surrender.

    A favorite game my boys used to play was hide-and-seek. They thought they were experts at it—but they usually hid in plain sight. One would crouch behind a curtain, little feet sticking out at the bottom. Another would dive under a blanket that looked suspiciously like a small, wiggling ...read more

    God Buries His Workers, But Carries On His Work

    Contributed by Ronald Moore on Nov 4, 2025
     | 47 views

    Every believer must eventually come face to face with one humbling truth: God’s work does not depend on us. He uses us, yes—mercifully, powerfully, even miraculously—but when our task is finished, He sets us down, and His work continues without pause.

    Text: “Moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them.” — Joshua 1:2 (NKJV) Introduction: The Ending That Wasn’t the End Every believer must eventually come face to face with one humbling truth: God’s work does ...read more

    The God Of All Comfort Series

    Contributed by Joshua Blackmon on Nov 5, 2025
     | 83 views

    Suffering can leave us feeling weak and alone, but God meets us in our pain. In 2 Corinthians 1, Paul shows how God comforts us so we can comfort others. This passage invites us to see our struggles as a way God works His mercy through us.

    Introduction: Paul opens his second letter to the Corinthians as a man who has suffered deeply, been misunderstood, and yet found fresh strength in God. This letter is more personal than 1 Corinthians; it reveals Paul’s heart, his wounds, and his theology of divine comfort. Corinth, as the ...read more

    It is not always convenient to be a Christian, as is revealed by the character of the people whom Paul greets at the end of his letter to the Romans.

    An Inconvenient Truth A Sermon on Romans 16:3-16 Zig Ziglar once visited the Washington Monument on a trip to DC. As he arrived with some friends, he heard a guide announce, “Ladies and gentlemen, there is currently a two-hour wait to ride the elevator to the top of the monument.” The guide then ...read more

    Jesus The Controversialist Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Apr 17, 2023
     | 2,099 views

    Mark portrays Jesus as strong and bold as He dealt with spiritual controversies "head on." In this section of Mark, he grouped together four incidents that showed how Jesus faced the controversies and taught the truth. We need to ask ourselves if we are more like Jesus or the Pharisees.

    A. Let me begin with a question: when you try to picture Jesus in your mind, how do you picture Him? 1. Do you picture Him being gentle, meek and loving? Certainly, He was all those things. 2. But Jesus also had other characteristics and other sides to Him. 3. When we read the Gospel accounts, ...read more
