Faith Of Our Father(S)

Contributed by Joshua Parrish on Jun 19, 2008

We live in a time when the value of fathers is at an all-time low, yet statistics show us that fathers are needed more than ever. Jesus’ relationship to God the Father serves as an example to us, just how important a father is in his children’s lives.

What is it with our infatuation with having kids? Why do we do it? What is that desire, that passion that burns within us that makes us want children? Is it our desire to see ourselves, literally, in another person? Is it our desire to love and be loved? What is it? Its mysterious to me. And ...read more

Do You Want To Get Well?

Contributed by Melvin Newland on Oct 16, 2015

Jesus didn't always do things the way people expected Him to, including healing. Sometimes Jesus' healing was painful because it required people to face truth about themselves that people just don't like to face.

Be Brace, Speak And Don't Give Up! Series

Contributed by Chuck Sligh on Aug 9, 2017

Sometimes we don't see much visible fruit, or past attempts to witness or minister were not outwardly successful and tempted to hold back our witness or cut back our service. God's words to Paul Acts 18:5-11 are just the prescription.

A Shorter List; 30 Vs 2 Series

Contributed by Nickolas Kooi on Aug 30, 2017

In Romans 12:9-21, Paul gives us an overwhelming list of 30 encouragments. However, they can be slimmed down to just two overarching themes: self-sacrificial love and overcome evil with good. We also see how these things point us to Jesus.

Our text from Romans this morning is quite challenging. Paul writes to encourage God’s people to live in their in the calling, but his words are overwhelming to us. “Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil. Hold fast to what is good. Love one another…be fervent in spirit…rejoice in hope, be ...read more

Signs Of The End (Part 2)

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Oct 15, 2017

Just days prior to the crucifixion, Jesus spoke to His disciples regarding the events surrounding the end times. While we cannot predict the day, nor the hour, we can see the stage being set for His return! Jesus revealed much for us in this passage.
