Healing Church - Helping Others Series

Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Oct 8, 2023

A church that brings healing accepts people “as is” and forgives people’s flaws but provides means of seeing people delivered and set free from their addictions. A Church that heals strictly follows the path of dealing with others with love and truth.

New Testament Religions

Contributed by Kyle Campbell on Aug 15, 2022

Introduction. You likely know that sin separates us from God (Isaiah 59:1-2). Therefore, in order to get back to God, we need religion. The word “religion” basically means to “tie or bind back to God again.” This fundamental belief in sin and redemption has fueled the development of many varied ...read more

James - A Faith That Works (2021) Series

Contributed by David Owens on May 31, 2021

In this introductory sermon for a series on the Book of James, we explore two questions: who is the author and who are the recipients. The sermon also drives home the point that we must be doers of the Word of God and not hearers only.

How To Test The Reality Of Your Religion Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 31, 2021

A Christianity that is not practical is not a real Christianity. If it does not control your conduct, and change your character, and make you more sensitive to the will of God and the world's need, then you better stop and ask some questions about the reality of your religion.
