Power In Unity Series

Contributed by Larry Turner on Jul 4, 2014

Jesus prayed that his church would be as united as He and the Father were. This sermon looks at 6 features that the church must be united in.

Two men met on a plane and one man asked the other, "Are you a Christian?" "Yes I am." "Wonderful! Are you Protestant, Catholic, or Orthodox?" "I’m a Protestant." "That’s great. So am I. Are you Calvinist or Armenian in your theology?" "I’m happy to say that I’m a ...read more

"Jesus Came To Reveal His Glory"

Contributed by Sean Harder on Dec 23, 2013

Jesus came to reveal His glory.

“Jesus Came to Reveal His Glory” (John 17:1-5) It’s clear from the Bible that the apostle John was the closest to Jesus. He appears to be the one Jesus loved the most and in his writing we see an intimacy that we don’t see in the other gospels. This is especially true in ...read more

Fitting In

Contributed by Dale Pilgrim on Feb 13, 2011

comedian Lenny Bruce gives our Christian psychology a metaphorical cattle prod shock when he said, “Every day people are straying away from the church and going back to God.’” I suspect it has a lot to do with fitting in.

“Fitting In” John 17:11-19 I read the prologue to a story called Girl in the Middle. The girl is Kim Satinsky who is in eighth grade. She says, “You would think that being in a clique is fun but take my word for it: It’s not. They make me wear expensive things when I’m not really rich and tell me ...read more

The Importance Of Christian Unity Series

Contributed by Rich Anderson on Feb 16, 2011

All true believers have God’s glory within, no matter what they may look like on the outside. Christian unity is not based on the external, but the internal. The very Spirit of God within us.

How important is unity in our individual lives? How important is unity in our church? Jesus had a lot to say about the importance of unity. If Christians cannot be unified, then we are not approaching one another in love. And we cannot be a good witness for Christ if we are bickering with one ...read more
