     | 1,080 views

    People have a preconceived idea of what a Christian is supposed to be or act like. They also have their understanding of what a local church is all about. How do we change the negative stereotype?

    Contributed by Jeffrey Dillinger on Apr 11, 2023
     | 1,873 views

    Because of the resurrection of Jesus we have victory over sin and the joy of living for eternity. The resurrection is central to the Christian faith, yet, on that day the believers didn't believe and the unbelievers faced truth.

    Resurrection Victory Intro: A. It really is amazing to me. There was a truth that was known, yet not believed. A truth that was told yet seemed to remain hidden. A truth that enemies feared more than followers believed. The same people that went to Pilate to seek him to put Jesus to death, ...read more

     | 1,498 views

    Shame will keep us from living out what Jesus has called us to do. Walk with Jesus and Simon Peter to see Jesus recommission Peter to work in the Kingdom of God.

    Recommissioned (John 21:15-19) Intro: A. I want to share some quick highlights in the life the Apostle Peter. He gets his name after his brother brings him to Jesus down in Judea when they were following John the Baptist, but he gets his commission up in Galilee after Jesus preaches to a crowd ...read more

    The first coming of Jesus brought to us "the Word which became flesh," We beheld His Glory," and "Grace upon Grace. This is a different way to talk about why Jesus coming in the flesh is so important.

    The First Advent (John 1:14-18) Intro: A. Its a time of year when some Christian denominations talk about “Advent.” The word simply means “the coming of someone or something important.” Traditionally “advent” is the four Sundays prior to Christmas Day, in which people celebrate the coming of ...read more

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on May 29, 2025
     | 547 views

    This sermon looks at the establishment of the church and looks at what a firm foundation should look like. It should make you think "Am I doing my part"

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Feb 13, 2025
     | 996 views

    This is a sermon to prompt us to look at our lives and determine if we are in line with where God would have us be. It begs the question of what standard or measure helps us to align with God's will in our life. (Please feel free to use my personal illustrations if you like)

    Aligned for the Kingdom Amos 7:7-9 Visual: Hold a plumb line in hand, letting it sway gently in the air. Ask, “Does this look straight to you? This simple tool might not seem like much, but it’s a builder’s best friend. Without it, entire structures can fail. Now, let me ask you—what tool is ...read more
