    Evangelism is not a dirty word, and we’ve got to reclaim it from those who distort it.

    “Evangelism” What comes to mind when you hear that word? Some of you grew up in the time of tent revivals. For a week, folk would gather from miles around underneath large tents to share a good meal, sing Gospel hymns, and listen to a fiery preacher bring the message that we all need Jesus ...read more

    Did you know that only 15% of churches in America are healthy? Could God be asking us to change? If so, in what areas? How do we identify what God is wanting us to change?

    An interesting article that I found. “Age changes things.” Who changed everything when I wasn’t looking? I’ve noticed lately that everything is farther away than it used to be. It’s even twice as far to the corner now, and they’ve added a hill! I’ve given up running for the bus; it leaves much ...read more

    Hail To The King Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 6, 2025
     | 188 views

    When heaven thunders and earth falls silent, every false throne collapses — and only the true King stands, reigning in mercy and power.

    When Heaven Starts Throwing Stones The morning sky looked ordinary—blue stretched thin above the Nile, windless, calm. Then the first crack of thunder rolled across the horizon like a war drum. No one in Egypt had ever heard thunder like that. Moses stood before Pharaoh one last time. The man who ...read more

    The demonstrations on Palm Sunday show that good and evil cannot coexist easily; but there is always room for those who repent and receive grace.

    Today the city is jammed with people who have come to demonstrate. They have a point of view, and they intend to speak their minds. It may be crowded, it may be inconvenient, it may disrupt business; but the issues are too important. The demonstrators will speak their minds, they will march for ...read more

    The passion of Jesus and how it relates to Holy Communion

    John 19: 1 - 20 HE DID IT FOR US The story of the trial and crucifixion of Jesus is a story of hypocrisy and raging hatred. It is also the story of the power and majesty of Jesus.

    We should persist in prayer because God’s justice is certain, but our faith is in question.

    “Why Bother To Keep On Praying?” Luke 18:1-8 INTRODUCTION: Do you ever feel as though your prayers are being returned unopened? Does it ever feel like you’re just getting heaven’s voice mail?

    Fueled by Philip Yancey’s What’s So Amazing About Grace?, Jesus’resurrection showed that God opened the door for oddballs and misfits.

    Acts 10:9-16 – From Lamb to Ham I’ve been wanting to preach this message for some time. And right after Easter is a good time to do it.

    Jesus tells us to strive to enter the narrow gate, while many will seek to enter when it is too late. The difference between seeking and striving for the kingdom of God.

Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved? And he said unto them, Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for ...read more
