Measure Upon Measure – The Glorious Conclusion – The Restoration Of God - Part 17 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jul 27, 2025

This last sermon draws it all together and we stand in awe at all that the Lord has done in addressing ALL the consequences of Adam’s sin. Then He has restored what Adam could never have had in full grace and mercy to the sinner. I have loved doing this series and hope you do also.

Surrendered Leaders, Transformed Communities

Contributed by Anitha Jabastion on Sep 23, 2025

All around us, as leaders, we long to see real change. We try different strategies, programs, and initiatives. Sometimes we pour so much energy into them, yet true and lasting transformation seems just out of reach. That raises the question: How can we see our communities truly transformed?

11. Message In 1 Peter – Number 11 – Closing The Letter With A Fond Farewell (1 Peter 5:12-14) Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 8, 2025

Farewell until we meet again. Today we think about the closing remarks in Peter’s first letter as we open up the final three verses. The end of a letter usually states the last important thoughts of the writer he wishes to convey to the readers. We look at that. May God bless us all.

The High Priest Series

Contributed by Sean Harder on Aug 29, 2012

Today’s message is in some ways going to sound like last week’s in term’s of what our high priest has done. But I also want to make this very practical in terms of what Peter says in 1 Peter chapter 2 about the body of believers being a royal priesthood.

The first thing I want to do is debunk the traditional idea of priests in the Church. In the Catholic tradition there is a basic holding to the tradition of the Old Testament. Priests in the Old Testament were very exclusive, and could only come from the family of Aaron and the tribe of Levi. There ...read more

Go Thy Way: He Waited For A Convenient Season Series

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Mar 31, 2020

In this last message for this "Go thy way" series, Felix a Roman governor, talked with Paul about the Christian faith several times. He listened but told Paul "go thy way and I'll talk to you about this when I have the time". Sadly, he never found the time.

Background: Paul has been arrested in Jerusalem, then taken to the Roman barracks (castle, KJV: Acts 21:34, 37, e.g.). Later Paul was sent to the seat of Roman government in Caesarea. He had been tried and accused of charges, serious at the time, but was declared neither guilty nor innocent. Paul ...read more

Just Like Us (Part Seven) Series

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Mar 25, 2019
