Better Together PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 4, 2025

The sermon emphasizes the grace and necessity of Christian community, highlighting how God designed us to support, encourage, and walk alongside one another in life.

There’s a quiet kind of courage in the person who shows up for another. A text that says, “I’m here.” A hand that steadies the ladder. A shoulder that catches tears. If you think back across the years, who taught you that you don’t have to carry the couch alone? Who sat in the waiting room when ...read more

Take Your Turn PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 6, 2025

Gratitude transforms us when we respond to Jesus’ mercy with obedience and thanksgiving, drawing us closer to God and shaping our hearts through prayer.

Some of us walked in today with weary hearts, carrying questions that don’t quiet down when the lights go out. Have you ever felt like those lepers in Scripture—near enough to hear hope, far enough to feel invisible? Maybe you’ve been standing “afar off,” waiting for a word, wondering if God still ...read more

Whom Does Jesus Call? PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 10, 2025

Jesus calls ordinary, flawed people to follow Him, offering transforming grace and acceptance that overcomes our failures and invites us into a new story.

If you’ve ever felt passed over, mislabeled, or just plain tired, take heart. Jesus has a way of walking into ordinary places and turning them into holy ground. He steps into tax booths and kitchens, into cubicles and carpools, into hospital rooms and waiting rooms. He sees what others miss. He ...read more

When I Pray PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 14, 2025

Prayer is a powerful, intimate encounter with God that brings healing, unity, and hope when we approach Him honestly and support one another.

Some of us walked in today with a whisper instead of a shout. Hearts carry heavy headlines—doctor’s reports, strained relationships, silent worries that keep us wide awake at 3 a.m. You’ve prayed before, and maybe your prayer felt like a paper airplane tossed into a hurricane. But friend, the God ...read more

Sustaining Grace PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 14, 2025

God’s grace meets us in our weakness, offering love, strength, and acceptance, empowering us to face life’s struggles with hope and courage.

If grace had a face, I think it would be smiling at you today. Not a plastic grin, but the kind that crinkles the eyes and warms the room. The kind you long to see when the week has been heavy, the bank account thin, and your heart even thinner. Maybe you woke up with that familiar knot of worry. ...read more

Don't Have A Grasshopper Mentality PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 14, 2025

When we face overwhelming challenges, prayer and faith in God’s promises empower us to overcome fear and step forward with courage and obedience.

Some days, the mirror tells the truth you’d rather ignore. Not the truth about hairlines and headlines, but the whisper that says, “You’re small.” Bills stack tall, bosses bark loud, diagnoses loom large, and your heart crouches like a child in the hallway of a big, echoing house. Have you felt ...read more

God's Witness Protection Plan PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 27, 2025

God’s love transforms us, reconciles us to Himself, and sends us out to love others with grace, forgiveness, and the hope of new life.

Some of us walked in today with hearts humming like quiet engines, carrying the week on our backs—school runs, bills to pay, conversations we wish had gone better. Others of us came with hope rolling like a sunrise—news of a baby on the way, a victory over a habit, a fresh start at work. Wherever ...read more

The sermon encourages honest, simple prayer, trusting God to guide and provide, reminding us that He listens and shapes our lives through our prayers.

Good morning, church family. Some of us came in today with hurried hearts and full calendars, others with quiet questions tucked inside.

Elijah, Ahab And Obadiah: The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly

Contributed by Clark Tanner on Nov 6, 2000

Things look bad for Israel; then, God's man comes from the East (can you hear the spurs jingle?)

Following the reign of King David, his son, Solomon reigned in wisdom and the strength of God for approximately 30-35 years before his own apostasy and decline. After Solomon, the Kings of Israel all did evil in the sight of the Lord. They forsook His ways to serve idols, and led the people ...read more

Song Sung New

Contributed by Clark Tanner on Nov 7, 2000

His Song is always new

We have been created to sing. Nations have national anthems; armed forces march to martial music, colleges have alma-maters. Almost every organization you can think about has a theme song.

Jesus: Master Evangelist

Contributed by Clark Tanner on Nov 9, 2000

The Savior meets us right where we are.

It may seem a little unnecessary at first...sort of stating the obvious, to call Jesus “Master Evangelist”. The word evangelist means, ‘messenger’, or ‘one sent out’, and He is the one who has sent out every messenger of God; whether man or angels. Since it is His message that they bring; ...read more

The Sons Of God And The Daughters Of Men Series

Contributed by Eddie Snipes on Nov 18, 2000

Who are the sons of God and why did their marriage to the daughters of men produce violence and unrestrained sin in the world? Jesus used this as a reference to the sign of His second coming, so how do we apply this today?

The Sons of God and the Daughters of Men Genesis 6:1 Now it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born to them, 2 that the sons of God saw the daughters of men, that they were beautiful; and they took wives for themselves of all whom they chose. 3 ...read more

What Makes Jesus So Special?

Contributed by Dan Erickson on Nov 21, 2000

Why Christmas is such an important celebration and why 2000 years after His birth, Jesus Christ is worthy of our trust, love, and devotion.

In less than two weeks it will be Christmas and almost all of us will celebrate the birth of someone born 2000 years ago. Why? That is the question of the day. What makes Jesus Christ so special? Why isn't the birthday of Mohammed, Confucius, or Buddha the biggest holiday of the year? Why does our ...read more
