Tsur "The Rock" Series

Contributed by David Scudder on Aug 15, 2011

Just as we need a constant supply of water to keep us healthy, we also need a constant supply of God's Word to keep us satisfied. I want to bring some satisfying refreshment to our dry and parched souls today.

Purpose: To extol God as our Rock. Aim: I want the listener to admire God's power and stability. INTRODUCTION: Water is a common substance that we give very little though to.

Remember What We Are To Do Series

Contributed by Alan Tison on Aug 7, 2010

Grace: It’s All God Series

Contributed by Rob Jansons on Sep 14, 2010

This is the summary sermon where I finally reveal that this series covers the same material that is often called the "5 Points of Calvinism." It emphasizes God's grace and that our faith response is us just showing up and accepting what Jesus has already

Today is the wrap up sermon of our winter sermon series. Sadly, though, it is still winter. We have been talking about salvation for five weeks.

Don't Worship Your Pastor Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Sep 20, 2010

You might never think of yourself as worshiping your pastor. But that's just what has happening in Corinth and it happens in churches all over the world to this day. What are the dangers, how to spot it, and how to avoid it are the subject of part two in

It had been only 18 months since Paul left his newly formed church at Corinth. A trusted family had filled him in on what had happened to this fledgling body: fights, divisions, class envy, a return to paganism, and out and out sin.

Historical Fact

Contributed by Ronnie Miller on Apr 26, 2012

Hear With Your Heart Series

Contributed by Dr. Jerry N. Watts on Jun 17, 2011

God Knows When You’re Done

Contributed by Gregory Thomas on Jan 31, 2011

Instead of Epraim depending on God for stability He formed alliances with the people instead of him being a shepherd he became as sheep. The "cake not turned" was burnt on one side and raw on the other. A metaphor for just how mixed up their lives were.

God Knows When You’re Done Hosea 7:8 The idea is of a “half-baked” cake. In that day, bread was often prepared as a cake that was cooked on both sides, something like a pancake. In thinking they can serve both the Lord and idols, Israel is like an unturned pancake - burned on one side, uncooked ...read more

Finding your place in the body of Christ is made difficult by the very nature of the spiritual gifts. People with upfront or flamboyant kinds of ministries can make the rest of us feel insignificant, like we are not contributing or maybe just aren't a par

As humans we like two things: to impress and be impressive. That was one of the main problems the Corinthians faced in many areas including spiritual gifts.

Mothers Make The Difference

Contributed by Christian Cheong on May 5, 2011

Mothers make the difference in our lives. They go unnoticed or unappreciated most of the time, just like Jochebed, who raised Miriam, Aaron and Moses. Mothers, do not under-estimate your influence in the family. Let us honour them for their protection,
