Until The Rain Be Past

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 6, 2025

The Spirit’s early rain begins God’s work in us, the latter rain matures it, and Christ’s eternal reign completes it forever.

Text: Song of Solomon 2:11 — “For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone.” --- You can almost hear music in that verse. After months of gray skies and cold wind, the bride lifts her face and says, “The winter is past.” It’s the sound of hope. The feel of life returning after ...read more

Standing In The Gap Series

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 6, 2025

God still seeks intercessors who stand between judgment and mercy; prayerful courage releases divine authority and brings deliverance to His people.

Introduction – The Call to Stand Last week we saw Esther’s victory and Haman’s fall. But there’s more to the story. Before there was a banquet, before the gallows were reversed, there was a woman on her knees saying, “If I perish, I perish.” Every victory begins with somebody willing to stand in ...read more

Inshallah… And Wait

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 10, 2025

To say Inshallah is not to delay life but to dedicate it — to live surrendered to the will of God, waiting in faith and walking in obedience until His “Mashallah” comes.

Introduction – The Word That Waits I once heard a story about a missionary who had served for twenty years in Lahore, Pakistan. He had learned many things in those two decades — how to drink tea politely, how to haggle in the market, how to stay calm when the electricity cut out for the fifth time ...read more

Reason Comes Home Series

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 17, 2025

Reason returns to peace when intellect kneels beside humility—uniting thought and wonder, truth and love, to rediscover meaning beyond knowledge.

The word reason used to sound like a promise. It meant light after darkness, knowledge after superstition, progress after fear. It built microscopes and libraries, engines and empires. It made us believe that if we only learned enough, we could cure every sickness and silence every war. But ...read more

Better Together

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 17, 2025

Faith alive through love turns duty into delight and fear into joy, showing the world what Jesus looks like.

Introduction — A Love That Moves You A few months ago, a young man named Daniel was driving home from work late one evening when he saw smoke billowing from a house on the corner of his street. Most people would have slowed down, maybe called 911, and waited for someone else to handle it. But ...read more

Creation praises God constantly; every blessing flows from Him, inviting us to join heaven’s chorus with grateful hearts and joyful worship.

Introduction — Hearing What We’ve Been Singing We have sung it so many times that it slips out of our mouths on autopilot. The ushers walk forward, the pastor nods, the pianist plays four familiar measures, and suddenly the congregation rises to its feet and a tiny hymn floats through the room. ...read more

Sermon On The Proof Of The Pudding

Contributed by William Meakin on Oct 29, 2025

An established proverb, "Actions speak louder than words" infers that what a person does is a more reliable indicator of their true intentions than what they say.

Rajani LaRocca, a female Indian-American author of children's literature and a primary-care physician once remarked: “Together, we decide that a hero: Is brave, but not without fear. Because if you fear nothing, how can you be brave? Says what they believe is right. Because if you cannot say ...read more

That’s The Book For Me

Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 12, 2025

God’s Word is wonderful to appreciate, vital to absorb, and powerful to apply—it shapes our steps, anchors our souls, and reveals God’s heart.

Part 1 — Appreciate Your Bible Most of us first met the Bible through a song long before we could spell “theology.” > “The B-I-B-L-E, yes that’s the book for me; I stand alone on the Word of God—the B-I-B-L-E. That little chorus carried a big truth: when all other voices clash, there’s one ...read more

Living On The Edge

Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 14, 2025

Living on the edge numbs the soul, but God’s mercy pulls us back from the drift and invites us into renewed holiness and freedom.

INTRODUCTION — “THE DANGER OF ALMOST” There is a way of living that looks safe, feels reasonable, and appears harmless — until suddenly it isn’t. A way of living that doesn’t plunge off a spiritual cliff, but tiptoes toward one. Scripture gives it a name: Living on the edge. Living just close ...read more

Sermon On The Power Of Music

Contributed by William Meakin on May 16, 2025

Hannah Harrington, a female American author once remarked: “He took his pain and turned it into something beautiful. Into something that people connect to. And that's what good music does. It speaks to you. It changes you.” Colossians 3:16 reminds us: “Let the word of Christ dwell in you ...read more

Sermon On An Eclectic Lifestyle

Contributed by William Meakin on May 20, 2025

An eclectic lifestyle is characterized by a broad range of influences and interests, rather than adhering to a single style or approach.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt, an American actor once remarked: "I don't just like one thing. Contrast is key. What do they say? Variety is the spice of life." 1 Corinthians 9:19-23 reminds us: “For though I am free from all, I have made myself a servant to all, that I might win more of them. ...read more
