    God’s Spirit seals us in Christ to serve the will of God and to bring others into the fold

READ EPHESIANS 1:2-14. This morning we’re going to focus on verses 11-14. Specifically, we’re ...read more

    Ascension Sunday-Today is called “ascension” Sunday. Not long ago we celebrated Easter, and about forty days out from the Resurrection, we find in the Scriptures that Jesus left the Earth and ascended to Heaven in plain view of his disciples, who were eye

    Don’t Just Stand There Lookin! Acts 1:6-14 Act 1:6-14 (6) So when they had come together, they asked him, "Lord, will you at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?"

    The Price Of Freedom

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on May 25, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,409 views

    We must understand that Christ paid the ultimate price for our freedom from sin and the clutches of Satan. The price of our freedom from sin was paid in blood. How do we respond to that sacrifice will ultimately determine our eternity too!

    Opening illustration: When I talked to some young men shortly before D-day during Gulf War II, I observed that they were scared. None of them wanted to die. However, the vast majority expressed their conviction that the cause for which they were fighting was right and worthy of the risk. Queen ...read more

     | 7,199 views

    This is the second message in the series "Auto-correcting God".

    In the first message of this series, looked at Adam and Eve’s rebellion, from the perspective of how it changed their relationship, and ours, from being “dumb phones,” being dependent on God to becoming “smart phones” and acting independently of God. Smart phones have a function that dumb phones ...read more

    Jesus Predicts His Death Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 12, 2021
     | 2,770 views

    Think of it: Jesus marshaled no army and He carried no weapon. Jesus never used His miraculous powers to throw the Pharisees off the nearest cliff. Yet, the threat of Jesus was so great, He often made enemies into allies:

    A New York Times editorial claims that America’s views on the death penalty are changing. 35 people were put to death in 2014 which was the fewest in 20 years. And 2014 marked a nearly 40 year low in the number of new criminals placed on death row. While the method of execution may have changed, ...read more

    Paul set two principles for the conduct of Christians: (1) Seek the good of others, and (2) seek to glorify God in everything we do.

    1 Cor 10:23-11:1 Do Everything for the Glory of God Finally, we have come to the end of the discussion on eating food offered to idols and the need to exercise self-control and not stumble another. • Paul wants the Corinthians to watch our conduct so that everything can be done to the glory of ...read more

    Bethel: "o Altar, Altar!"

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Aug 25, 2020
     | 7,711 views

    This may be the only sermon preached against an altar! When God's prophet came to Bethel, some interesting things happened. Something even happened to the altar itself.

    Introduction The Bible records messages proclaimed against many topics. This is especially true in the Old Testament: the prophets spoke about (and against) various kings, nations, and even the nations of Israel and Judah. The text here is unusual because, first, it’s spoken against an altar! So ...read more

    How Pride Destroys A Church Series

    Contributed by Ken Mckinley on Mar 2, 2023
     | 2,992 views

    This is the seventh message in a series we're doing on 1st Corinthians. Today we're talking about how a little leaven will leaven the whole lump, and how Church discipline not only keeps the integrity of a congregation, but how it is actually a loving act to the sinning member.

    Text: 1 Corinthians 5:1-13 OPEN WITH PRAYER AND THANKSGIVING Now we've been in 1 Corinthians for a while, and we've seen Paul address a few of the issues that were going on in that Church. And I don't know about all you, but I'm thankful that God chose to add this book to the ...read more

    Lord Of The Storm

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Mar 11, 2023
     | 4,285 views

    Everyone experiences storms in life. Storms are miserable. They are dangerous. But Jesus wants us to be calm in them. And they provide almost unique opportunities to learn to trust Jesus.

    The story of Jesus and his disciples in a storm on the Sea of Galilee is short. But it has a huge amount to teach us. I’d like to show you a little video clip of an actual storm on Lake Galilee so you can get an idea of what that storm might have been like. [Video clip.] Jesus and his disciples ...read more

    Communion And St. Patrick's Day Sermon

    Contributed by Ken Mckinley on Mar 11, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,508 views

    This is a Communion message that I've attempted to tie in with St. Patrick's Day. It is focused on The Lord's Supper, but ties in how the missionary to Ireland was Christ focused, and how we should be as well.

    Communion March 2020 / St. Pats Day Text: 1 Corinthians 11:23-30 As you can tell by this table that’s been set here, we are taking communion this morning, but I want, if I’m able, to try and tie it in with St. Patrick’s Day… Because I think that sometimes there can be some confusion about both of ...read more

    Go Thy Way-The Parable Of The Workers In The Vineyard Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Feb 21, 2020
     | 7,693 views

    Jesus gave this parable to His disciples after the rich young ruler had come running to Jesus but had walked away. Look for the "go thy way" in the text--it may surprise you!

    Introduction: Just after the rich young ruler came running to Jesus, and walked away, Jesus gave this parable about workers in a vineyard. This was one of the last parables Jesus ever told. The immediate context stems from the disciples’ reaction to what Jesus said to the rich young ruler. Peter, ...read more
