    A Hidden Kingdom Series

    Contributed by Scott Turansky on Jan 1, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,983 views

    This is a kingdom where He's going to overthrow the power of sin in your life. This is a kingdom where He's going to come in and reign with peace in your heart. That's the kind of kingdom that Jesus is bringing in.

    Imagine being a disciple, maybe Peter or Andrew or James or John, and the resurrection is taking place. Jesus ascended into heaven and you're kind of lying there on your bed sometimes, and you go, “Whoa, do you remember what He did then? Oh, now I remember why He did that.” Particularly while ...read more

    A Troublesome Verse And A Glorious Future

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 29, 2023
     | 971 views

    What did Paul mean when he wrote about a "baptism for the dead" in 1 Corinthians 15:29? How should it be interpreted? What does it mean in light of further teaching on the resurrection of Christ? Let Scripture speak concerning these and other matters of the faith.

    1 Corinthians is a letter dealing with what could be referred to as a "schizophrenic" church. It had become a crazy quilt of pride, drunkenness, sexual deviancy, arrogance, abuse of spiritual gifts, and personal favoritism towards teachers who had been with them, such as Paul, Peter, ...read more

     | 316 views

    Our look at the twelve apostles continues with the “ inner circle”, or most notable in the Scriptures due to their words and work.

    The list of the twelve ordinary men commissioned by the Lord Jesus Christ to preach the Gospel always lists Simon Peter as the first due to his character, his devotion to Jesus, and was given the task of being the leader of the twelve and be both the pastor and teacher to the “ sheep” and “lambs” ...read more

     | 470 views

    Every believer is a seed, but not every seed grows into a fruitful tree. The key to spiritual growth is being planted in the right ground—grounded in God’s Word, nurtured by a strong spiritual community, and guided by the Holy Spirit.

    SEED AND GROUND By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 1 Peter 2:2 "As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby."

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 24, 2025
     | 258 views

    Jesus lifted up on a cross is the most significant hour in world history. Have you made your most significant hour in your personal history? Will you say, “I believe that my judgment is over, and I have passed from death to life.”

    If you knew your time on earth was winding down, I think you might say some meaningful things to those you love. Jesus spent around forty months publicly teaching. Now, Jesus speaks in what was to be His next-to-last sermon that He will deliver in His life. The date is Sunday, March 29, 33 AD. ...read more

    The Harvest Of The Broken Seed: The Paradox Of A Fruitful Life

    Contributed by Paul Dayao on Sep 11, 2025
     | 117 views

    This sermon unpacks the powerful paradox of John 12:24-25, teaching that like a seed that must die to bear fruit, we must surrender our lives to find true fruitfulness and life eternal.

    Introduction: The Unexpected King Let us transport ourselves to a moment thick with expectation. The city of Jerusalem is trembling with energy. Dust fills the air, mingling with the shouts of a jubilant crowd. The scent of crushed palm leaves is underfoot. It is the week of the Passover, and ...read more

    Life Is A Beach

     | 238 views

    Jesus calls every disciple to daily self-denial and Spirit-empowered cross-bearing that ends not in loss but in resurrection life.

    (Losing to Gain) Part 1 – The Comfortable Illusion It sounds so inviting: Life is a beach. The phrase promises calm tides, soft sand, a life where the hardest choice is whether to nap or swim. We crave that ease. Sometimes we even remake God in that image—faith as a sunny getaway where problems ...read more

    Main Idea: God not only suffers for us, but also with us. His co-suffering love is demonstrated through Jesus' life, death, and resurrection. As followers of Jesus, we are called to co-suffer with others, bringing life and healing.

    You know how sometimes life just sucks? Well, Jesus gets it. He knew He was about to go through some really rough stuff, like dying on a cross. But He also knew that by going through that, He'd be able to help a lot of people. Just like when you're playing a tough level in a video game, you know ...read more
