Sermons on Life Apart From God:

Taking Life & God Seriously

Contributed by Thomas Bartlett on Jan 2, 2021

The nation of Israel watched God provide care for them and release from slavery yet God has to exhort them not to forget Him. How could they forget God after all He'd done? Well, in the same ways we forget Him too.

Death To Life! Series

Contributed by Thomas H on Oct 4, 2010

Death to life - what an extreme! In this passage Paul talks about the amazing thing God did for us through Christ for those who follow Jesus - He took us from one extreme to another - from death to life!

Ephesians 2:1-10 Think of extremes. What extremes can you think of? Perhaps of drought and flood at the moment.

Passionate About Holiness Series

Contributed by Rich Anderson on Feb 16, 2011

To be Holy is to be set apart. Not “Holier than Thou”, not religious, but Holy in God’s sight. Are we set apart? To be set apart is to be a Christ-like example to those around us.

What do we mean when we say something is Holy? Look at your Bible. It says “Holy Bible.” What makes it Holy? The land of Israel is called “The Holy Land.” The city of Jerusalem is called “The Holy City.” Why? There is a quality about all three that they share in common, They all belong to ...read more

The hope we have in Christ is a living hope that will never perish, spoil or fade.

As humans, we live on hope. ...read more

What Is Holiness? (Leviticus 19-20) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Aug 27, 2024

Holiness is a common, fuzzy word. But basically it comes to the idea of "dedication." God is dedicated to his people; God expects them to mirror Him, and be dedicated to Him the same way.

Today, we are going to rabbit trail for just a week, and talk about holiness. One of the hardest things to explain in the entire Bible, in my opinion, is the idea of holiness. The Bible often tells us that God is holy, and when the Bible tells us this, it tends to be in very serious, weighty ...read more
