Sermon # 31 - The Purpose Of The Church Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jun 26, 2025

The Parable of the Good Samaritan is familiar to all of us. However, if we study this from a deeper spiritual angle, we will understand God’s greater plan for us as individuals who believe in Him and His purpose for the church at large.

As we continue our study on the church, for today’s meditation we will study this portion of scripture found in the Gospel of Luke chapter 10.

Living In Lack In The Middle Of Abundance

Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Jul 4, 2025

As Christians, if we are called to live in the abundance of God’s provision, love, and grace, why are so many of us living in a mindset of lack—spiritually, emotionally, and even materially? Why do we say that we serve a God of abundance, and settle for scarcity?

John 10:10 – “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.” Philippians 4:19 – “And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” Introduction: As Christians, if we are called to live in the ...read more

In this sermon we receive a clear revelation of the devil's works, and the greater works of Jesus to destroy the works of the devil.

Losing A Loved One To The Enemy's Schemes Series

Contributed by Shaila Touchton on Sep 3, 2024

As Christians, we are not immune to the challenges and trials of life.

A Tale Of Two Kinds Of Wisdom Series

Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Sep 3, 2024

James focuses on the leaders of the church as he calls into question the source of wisdom - essentially noting that wisdom from God is drastically different than wisdom of the world.

There are decisions that all of us make on a daily basis. Some of those are minor and relatively inconsequential, others are major and potentially life altering.

Sermon # 7 - Throw-Off, Rebuild, Unite Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Sep 11, 2024

The call of God to the church today is to cast off everything that hinders us from reaching our destination, to rebuild the broken altars, and to work towards the unity of the body of Christ. The coming of the Lord is near and the church must be ready to receive the bridegroom.

One Flock, One Shepherd: The Unfinished Mission

Contributed by Scott Maze on Nov 11, 2024

It’s not a small thing for Jesus’ followers to be scattered. He needs to gather us “so there will be one flock,” and even so there is “one shepherd.” Jesus cares for people all over the world. As one of His followers, do you care for people all over the world?

Today, we conclude our week of praying for missions by fasting and praying. If your personal priorities were like favorites on your phone, what would be included? Like the saved numbers you place in your cell phone, what priorities would be included among your favorites? The care of your family, a ...read more
