Sermons on Living For Others:

Has The Resurrection Changed You?

Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Mar 22, 2023

If we aren't in awe of the resurrection of Jesus as a historical event, we may only see it as a fairytale. The resurrection is scientifically impossible, but historically true. The resurrection is history-making, earth-shaking, life-transforming, and eternity-changing truth.

Jesus is the risen King who is victorious over death, recognized by His disciples, validated by Scripture, and enthroned over all creation. That truth changes our faith, theology, and life. The resurrection also changes our practical living. The resurrection isn't just a doctrine to believe, ...read more

Inward Intimacy With Christ

Contributed by Joe Dan Vendelin on Mar 2, 2024

Samson is a story of a man who had an outward consecration but was missing an internal intimacy. Our number one charge as believers is to maintain an inward intimacy with Christ and to work "with God" (instead of "for Him).

Being strong is important. King David told Solomon to “be strong, and show yourself a man” (1 Kings 2:2 ESV) when he gave his final exhortations to him before he passed away. Being strong is part of what we have to do in order to fulfill what God has called us to do. It is true that God has ...read more

What Makes Your Prayer Powerful? (Praying From The New Covenant 2) Series

Contributed by Christabel N. Onuoha on May 6, 2023

What makes the believer’s prayer powerful is not the verboseness of the speech, not the gyration or energy or loudness in our voice, it’s not even the number of scriptures we quote when we pray. Paul says, “for I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL of Christ: for it is the POWER of God unto salvation…”

This is a continuation of the Praying From The New Covenant series. In my last message “Praying From Victory” as opposed to praying for victory, I mentioned that praying from victory is praying from the perspective of the finished work of Jesus on Calvary. And this is a perspective issue, it’s a ...read more

Ruth And Boaz: The Story Unfolds Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jan 5, 2024

Ruth represents one of the great redemption stories of the Bible. From cursed outsider, to redeemed. What about us? What about our line in Adam. He was cursed and banished from the garden of Eden. But God had a plan of redemption for all of us.

My friend has written a book with this title; His story in our story for his glory. That could be the theme for the life of Ruth. Ruth is from the worst family line in the Bible. She is a Moabite cursed to the tenth generation. Ruth places her faith in the God of Israel, and she is about to ...read more

Murdered For Truth (Acts 7)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Aug 19, 2025

Why are some so offended by Jesus?

Do people generally despise hearing the truth about their own wrongdoing? Are we afraid to call for repentance? Let’s look at Stephen’s example in Acts 7. How did Stephen defend himself against false accusations? “Is this true?” the high priest asked. “Brothers and fathers,” he said, “listen: The ...read more

The Absolute Source Of All Goodness

Contributed by Paul Dayao on Aug 26, 2025

In a world of shadows and decay, our hope is anchored in the absolute, unchanging goodness of God, who, as the ultimate Giver, sovereignly chose to give us His greatest gift: a new and eternal life through the word of truth.
