    To discuss "Paul’s Solemn Appeal to Timothy," his beloved son in the faith. To establish this appeal was given to him for his work in the ministry.

    INTRODUCTION Outline. 1. There are five things he mentions to Timothy. The word "solemn" means "seriousness." 2. They are all found in this text: “authority, urgency, substance, duration, and vigilance.” 3. We will discuss them individually as we move through this lesson. 4. ...read more

    Contributed by Rev. Matthew Parker on Sep 11, 2025
     | 214 views

    This is a reflection for an inner city mission for the mid-level leadership team. The reflection focuses on compassion

    2 Corinthians 1:3–4 (NIV) “Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.” Paul calls God “the Father of ...read more

  • The Veil Torn

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 12, 2025
     | 228 views

    When Jesus died, God Himself tore the temple curtain from top to bottom—forever removing every barrier between His holiness and our hearts. The way into His presence is wide open, not by our efforts or rituals, but by the finished work of Christ.

    Introduction – A Wall Comes Down, A Veil Is Rent Down I still remember the summer of 1964 when our family crossed from West Germany into East. We were crammed into a Volkswagen bus—my parents up front, four sisters and two brothers jammed shoulder to shoulder. The youngest, little Sarah, was still ...read more

  • (2 Of 4) God’s Open Courtroom Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 27, 2025
     | 160 views

    Daniel’s prophecy time-stamps heaven’s public vindication of Calvary, assuring believers that Christ’s finished work secures eternal acceptance and unshakable hope.

    Opening Scene – “If It Is Finished, What Is Jesus Doing Now?” The very last word Jesus spoke on the cross was a single, triumphant cry: > “It is finished!” (John 19:30) Every Christian heart thrills to those words. Nothing can be added to what Jesus accomplished that day. Sin’s penalty was ...read more

  • Presence Over Praise

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 8, 2025
     | 109 views

    When we choose God’s presence over applause, faithful service over spotlight, and trust in waiting over instant recognition, our hearts are shaped for His glory

    There is something sacred in the ordinary. A simple door. A gate. A threshold. A doorkeeper. The one who watches, opens, welcomes, guards. In the temple system of old, the doorkeeper had no glamorous role. Few songs were written about him. He rarely stood in the spotlight. But without him, people ...read more

  • When Fear Knocks, Faith Answers

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 8, 2025
     | 201 views

    When fear knocks again, faith answers with prayer, peace, and purpose—transforming fearful hearts into fearless witnesses of God’s steadfast presence.

    I was a long way from home—traveling through Baluchistan, that barren stretch between Pakistan and Iran. The desert seemed endless, the wind dry as powder. By the time evening fell, I had found what looked like a safe spot to sleep: the flat roof of a little white-washed mosque. The stars were so ...read more

  • The Strength To Comprehend God’s Love

    Contributed by Joshua Blackmon on Oct 9, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 209 views

    This sermon idea came from a sermon preached by my dear friend Eric Henderson.

    The Strength to Comprehend God’s Love Text: Ephesians 3:14–21 Introduction: Trying to Measure the Immeasurable You know, we humans like to measure things. It’s in our nature. We want to know how much, how far, how deep, how high. We measure how deep the ocean is. We measure how high the sky ...read more

  • The Book Of Lamentations – Part 43 – Princes Were Abused And Young Men Forced Into Harsh Servitude By Ruthless Babylon - Lamentations 5:12-13 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 10, 2025
     | 197 views

    The description of horrible conditions continues, this time with degrading action against the princes, and terrible forced labour upon the young men. A conquering army often forces humiliation on the defeated people and treats them terribly. Symptomatic of a sinful world.

    THE BOOK OF LAMENTATIONS – PART 43 – PRINCES WERE ABUSED AND YOUNG MEN FORCED INTO HARSH SERVITUDE BY RUTHLESS BABYLON - Lamentations 5:12-13 The subject matter of Lamentations is not pleasant in most of its content, which is probably why it is rarely preached on, or taught. Here in chapter 5 we ...read more

  • Unreasonably Reasonable

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 18, 2025
     | 159 views

    Our rational age has lost its reason; only faith reunites logic and love, restoring truth, humility, and genuine freedom.

    Introduction – The Smartest Dumb Thing We’ve Ever Done I was sitting in a campus café a few months ago when I overheard a group of students arguing over whether coffee is technically a fruit juice. It started as a joke, but within five minutes one had pulled up research on the coffee cherry, ...read more

  • Re-Centralization

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 28, 2025
     | 229 views

    It is only in Jesus Christ that we are reconciled to God, to each other, to creation, and to truth itself.

    Paul wrote this letter to the church at Colossae because they were in danger of being turned into Gnostics. Now, we aren’t in danger of turning into Gnostics, are we? I mean, how many of you woke up this morning and said to yourself, “you know, this Gnosticism stuff - I think I’d really better look ...read more

  • The First Church Of Noah

    Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 6, 2025
     | 651 views

    First we compare Noah’s Ark to modern churches and then observe 7 details about the Ark which are revelations about the Church of Jesus Christ and our salvation.

    THE FIRST CHURCH OF NOAH 1 Pet. 3:20-21 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. I heard about this elderly couple. They were having a terrible time with their memory. They went to the doctor. He instructed them to start writing down everything they were doing so they wouldn’t forget. 2. The next night, ...read more

  • Paul Preaches In Rome Series

    Contributed by Mark Schaeufele on Aug 8, 2025
     | 302 views

    The Book of Acts ends, not with a period, but with a comma. We don’t get a tidy conclusion to Paul’s story, but we do get a powerful reminder that the mission of the Church is far from over.

    PAUL PREACHES IN ROME Text: Acts 28:17-31 Introduction 1. The Book of Acts ends, not with a period, but with a comma. We don’t get a tidy conclusion to Paul’s story, but we do get a powerful reminder that the mission of the Church is far from over. 2. In Acts 28:17–31, we see Paul in Rome, under ...read more

  • What Does A Sin Unto Death Mean?

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Aug 8, 2025
     | 242 views

    We worry much about the unforgivable sin or as John puts it "a sin unto death?"

    What is a Sin unto Death 1 John 5:14–17 NKJV Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him. If anyone sees his brother ...read more

  • Law And Grace

    Contributed by John Newton on Mar 2, 2025
     | 496 views

    Paul is calling the church members in Galatia to genuine spiritual maturity

    One of the great things about being a follower of Jesus is that you quickly discover that you are a member of a vast international family that encircles the entire world. I am not a huge traveller, but it has been my privilege to worship with other believers in such faraway places as Australia, ...read more

  • The Best Friend

    Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Mar 2, 2025
     | 1,053 views

    This sermon has us looking at what a best friend really means. Do you have a best friend? Are you a best friend? What are the characteristics of a best friend. We are going to discuss those characteristics and show that Jesus meets and exceeds them.

    Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha. It was that Mary who anointed the Lord with fragrant oil and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick. Therefore the sisters sent to Him, saying, “Lord, behold, he whom You love is ...read more
