    Show respect for everyone in your actions and your attitude, because everyone has been made in the image of God.

    An attorney was speaking to a woman who had just lost her husband. He said to her, “Your husband did not leave a will, so we need to know the last words he ever said to you.” She replied, “I don't want to tell you.” The attorney said, “Look, he did not leave a will.

    What The Hell Series

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on Jan 31, 2016
     | 6,306 views

    This sermon looks at the question: How can a loving God send people to hell?

    Long before I knew about God’s grace I knew about Gods’ wrath. Long before I had encountered a loving God I knew about the fires of hell. Some of those images came from culture and some came from art. All in all I think I prefer Larson to Michelangelo, but I’m that kind of ...read more

     | 10,164 views

    "For Dummies" books are a raging success! Why? Full of practical wisdom and simple "How To's" Wouldn't a "Christianity for Dummies," a book full of practical wisdom & simple How Tos on how to live out our faith, be great? James & this series is JUST THAT

    Christianity For Dummies: The Power of Patience James 5:7-11 I. Introduction A. A woman saw a father shopping with a fussy two-year old in his grocery cart. "Be patient, Billy," he whispers. "You can handle this, Billy. It's okay, Billy." The woman said to him, "I don't mean to ...read more

     | 19,093 views

    What kind of mindset should we have as we approach a new year? Using Paul's comments in Phil. 3, this message identifies three ways of thinking that should be embraced by all Christians.

    1-1-17 Phil. 3:8-14 Philippians 3:8-14 in NLT “Yes, everything else is worthless when compared with the priceless gain of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. I have discarded everything else, counting it all as garbage, so that I may have Christ 9 and become one with him. I no longer count on my own ...read more

    We leave a legacy through our giving, but some of those legacies last longer than others.

    Length of Your Legacy How long will you be remembered? I remember my Grandfather Guptill, we called him Da. He passed away when I was 11. I vaguely remember my mother’s grandfather, he passed away when I was seven, but we had moved overseas when I was five so those were my last ...read more

     | 7,571 views

    This message looks at what we can learn from Jesus about Giving.

    If there's anything more annoying than a preacher who is always bringing money into the mix, it's one who sneaks money into his messages. One minute he's talking about love and prayer and then wham the next minute he's talking about what people give and don't give and then he has the audacity to ...read more

    Being A Good Father

    Contributed by Vince Miller on May 7, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 31,627 views

    This sermon, designed for Father's Day, addresses two components I wish I would have known before I became a dad myself. Two simple principles that can be easily applied to a father of any age and includes material for men, women, and various life stages.

    There is no script or instruction manual, for being a good father. Most men are thrust into the task of fatherhood that will change how we view our earthly father, Heavenly Father, and even ourselves forever. It is an adventure that will challenge us, drain us, beat us up, lending us to a few ...read more

    What Can I Say?

    This is a farewell sermon I preached at two of the churches I've been serving as I move on to my next appointment.

    Ah … famous last words. Here’s a few I thought you might enjoy or find interesting: When convicted murderer James W. Rodgers was put in front of a firing squad in Utah, he was asked if he had any last requests. “Yeah,” he said, “bring me a bullet-proof vest.” Drummer Buddy Rich died after ...read more

    Real Leadership Series

    Contributed by C. Philip Green on Feb 22, 2019
     | 9,792 views

    If you want to be a real leader that inspires people to real greatness, define the vision, delegate the work; but most important, deny yourself just like Jesus did. That’s because real leaders are real servants.

    Several years ago, a 19-year-old man, desperate to get to Tokyo’s Haneda Airport, hopped a bus and demanded that the driver take him there. Some say the man was drunk, others that he was disturbed. Either way, only a few of the passengers were concerned, and everyone stayed calm. That’s because ...read more

    Talk Is Cheap

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Mar 6, 2019
     | 7,319 views

    Actions or works may not create faith but they can reveal the substance and form of a person’s faith. To me, works is our faith made visible. “For just as a body without the spirit is dead” … a corpse … “so faith without works is also dead” … a corpse (James 2:26).

    [Put up picture of me on screen.] Let me tell you a little bit about that man in the photo. He was 40 years old when that picture was taken. He was 20 months sober at the time. Well … “sober” is not the right word. He was a dry drunk” … which means that he hadn’t picked up a drink in 20 ...read more

    We live in a world full of closed doors, but God did not want the world to be like this.

    You know in many ways, life is all about the doors. We come into doors and go out of doors. We open doors and shut doors. Sometimes, we slam doors, no need to confess, we’ve all done it. And if you really stop to think about it, it’s the closed doors in life that really are the most ...read more
