    What’s Your Business?

    Contributed by Sherm Nichols on Jan 28, 2014
     | 3,818 views

    To urge people to deliberately begin to love and to associate with at least one lost person for the purpose of unapologetically inviting them to answer Jesus’ call to repent

    I want to begin this morning by showing a deeply moving and theologically packed video clip that not only is animated and frivolous, but also 3 months too early in the year. But, this does help introduce a certain character we’re going to learn from this morning. (Show clip from “The ...read more

    A sermon to assure us that Jesus is Lord over our teaching, over the natural world, and over the spirit world

    You need to know your enemy. • Smart coaches study the strengths and weaknesses of the teams they’re going to play. • Smart military leaders study the strengths and weaknesses, even the personalities of their counterparts, for the enemies they’re going against. ...read more

    Gone Fishin’

    Contributed by Sherm Nichols on Jan 28, 2014
     | 4,405 views

    Right in the middle of our world, Jesus calls us to become disciples committed to a work of eternal significance

    Fishing is a favorite subject of mine. If I can’t get out to do it, I can at least sit around and talk about it, and that’s the next best thing. There are some who would rather not do either. So, I wouldn’t want to push fishing on anyone. Even though 4 of 12 of Jesus’ ...read more

    A reminder that the best thing we can receive from Jesus is forgiveness

    You’ve had a run-in with your wife. She didn’t understand your point of view, and she really laid into you. You both had to leave for work, and you both left in a huff. The day went on, though not very well, and your anger subsided. Finally, you’re both about to get to sit ...read more

    A reminder of the complete sovereignty of Jesus

    I’ve talked about Steve and Alberta Kelly’s dogs before. They’re not just regular dogs. These dogs are hardship cases. Every one of them has a story - one nearly died of exposure as a puppy; one has been shot with a shotgun; one, hit by a car. The vet fixes them up, and they ...read more

    Will You Be Ready?

    Contributed by Scott Nichols on Jan 18, 2019
     | 13,033 views

    What if in the next moment - even as my words fall upon your ears - Christ returned with the shout of the archangel and the trumpet blast? "Faithful and true would He find us here, if He should come today?" Would you be ready?

    The hymn we have just sung asks a pointed question. A question that I fear too often we dismiss in our daily lives. With all the concerns of living in the present moment - with all of the accompanying joys or frustrations - we fail to give much thought to the final moment. That moment when time, as ...read more

    How To Look At The Lord's Supper

    Contributed by Scott Nichols on Jan 18, 2019
     | 7,004 views

    Paul, in I Corinthians 10:23-34, reminds us that if we would eat and drink this Supper to our benefit, we must be looking in four directions. In communion, we must be looking back, looking ahead, looking within and looking around.

    Something special is about to happen this morning. Something miraculous. Paul in chapter 10 of this same letter calls it a "participation in the body and blood of Jesus Christ." We know it as communion. As we take a piece of bread and cup of juice, we will be participating in a mystery. ...read more

    Blind Bartimaeus

    based on 1 rating
     | 18,602 views

    Do you think it would take a miracle to get your life back on track again? So did Bartimaeus. But one day he took a chance and all of his dreams came true. The same can happen to you. Let's consider his story.

    Have you ever felt as if your life has come to a standstill? As if you have been relegated to the side of the road as the rest of the world passes by? Do you think it would take a miracle to get your life back on track again? So did Bartimaeus. But one day he took a chance and all of his dreams ...read more

    You Must Remember This

     | 4,553 views

    This little prayer in Psalm 25 might be entitled a Prayer of Remembrance. In these words David speaks of the memory of God. In these three great "Remembers," I think we too can find a place to anchor our faith in God's memory just as did David.

    As we turn to the Word of God this evening I want us to briefly consider just two verses from Psalm 25. Listen again to verses six and seven: "Remember, O Lord, your great mercy and love, for they are from of old. Remember not the sins of my youth and my rebellious ways; according to your love ...read more

    Thursday morning. Jasmine Gardner was desperate to catch the #30 bus. For some reason she’d been forced off the subway. She had to get to work. She was already 45 minutes late. The bus wasn’t the usual for her, but rush hour traffic was, and she was all set to get on. The driver ...read more

    The Deal Breaker

    Contributed by Sherm Nichols on Sep 1, 2015
     | 3,756 views

    Easter Sermon - The resurrection of Jesus, or the lack of it, is a deal breaker when it comes to accepting the authority of Jesus

    If you’re in the market – for anything – there’s a list of conditions called “deal breakers.” Everything else might be right, but if one of those conditions is present, forget it. If it’s a house, it might be something like pet odors, or a bad location, ...read more

    Why America Needs The Church To Pray

    Contributed by Sherm Nichols on Sep 1, 2015

     | 5,844 views

    A call to prayer for the US - useful for a 4th of July type message, but not limited to that. Prayer for our nation is biblical, necessary, and a regular practice of the citizen of the Kingdom of God

    It’s the time of year still that you have to keep an eye on the weather. I’m a fan of Doppler radar, and of smart phone technology. I have an app now that tells me how many minutes it will be before it starts to rain where I’m at, and then it tells me how long the rain will last. ...read more

    Our Mission, Should We Decide To Accept It

    Contributed by Sherm Nichols on Sep 1, 2015
     | 6,336 views

    Our mission from God is bigger than what we come up with on our own. This sermon is specific to our church's mission, but applicable on a broader scale.

    Intro: (MI theme plays on video for a minute as I come up) Good morning, Mr. Phelps… That’s how the tape would always begin in the old MI shows. (I guess it was always in the morning.) Then, the voice on the tape would explain to Peter Graves the impossible mission he was being ...read more
