    What if there is no resurrection? It means death has won and there is no life. It means darkness reigns and there is no hope. But Christ has been raised, therefore now we have God’s gift of life and hope.

    [I’ve taken some points in this sermon from Rodney Buchanan’s sermon ‘Jesus, the Living Savior’ at SermonCentral.] BUDDHA’S FINGERS In 1981 there was a devastating flood in central China.

    "Learn Your Lessons When It Comes To Christian Living”

     | 24,649 views

    History helps us to not repeat the same mistakes. We have learned dozens of lessons after watching others make mistakes. Why should day-to-day Christian living be any different? Paul teaches us about Christian living by using history and God’s promises.

    “Learn Your Lessons When It Comes To Christian Living” I. Listen to warnings written in Israel’s history (1-12) II. Look to the Lord to get you out of temptation (13) Dear Friends in Christ, My car has a yellow light that turns on when the gas in my gas tank level gets down low. With another ...read more

    God has called us to be constantly fanning the spiritual flames inside us, and it is up to us to train ourselves to make the Spiritual Disciplines part of our routine, or lifestyle.

    Spiritual Disciplines Living the Baptized Life Last week we examined the Spiritual Discipline of Celebrating the Lord’s Table. One of the ways we discovered we do this was by making Communion a “Memorial”; a way of remembering what Jesus has done for us. Today I want to continue on the idea of ...read more

    Our church's final service was held on April 8, 2018, and we discussed three critical things as we each look ahead to what God has for us next: 1) remember what God has done, 2) tell others of what God has done, and 3) imagine what God will do next.

     | 5,505 views

    This is the 10th sermon in a series through 1 John. It deals with the attitude "I am saved by grace, why should I go through the trouble of living the Christian life?" We live a godly life because of God’s love for us.

    why should I love a Godly life? Though many of us would come right out and ask this question, I am sure many of us have spent considerable time wondering. In case you haven’t heard, living a God-honoring life isn’t easy. God is constantly calling us to step out of our comfort zone and enter into ...read more

    In the way the world thinks today God has been removed from the throne of judgment. God has been stripped of His authority. God has been robbed as the moral ruler of this universe.

    Isaiah chapter 1/Duet chapter 6…Gods Statutes/ Constitution A revival is a spiritual awakening...So if we need a spiritual awaking then...we must be dosing off spiritually.

     | 25,778 views

    Paul urges us to live a joyful life in Christ. We are to (1) choose to rejoice in Christ, (2) let go of our worries through prayer, and (3) think and meditate on God’s truths.

    Philippians 4:4-4:9 How can we live a happier life? Paul gives us three principles: 1. CHOOSE to Rejoice Always Paul says we can choose to rejoice - it is a choice. • We are not victim of the circumstance • If we believe God, then He is our Guide, not fate, not some kind of force.

    Jesus reminds us that one of the guaranteed things about being a Christian is that we will encounter troubles. This sermon helps us view troubles from God’s perspective and that we should not be afraid of it.

    When you sense difficulties how do you react? When you sense problems what is your response? Recently I saw some hilarious videos of how people respond when they are in trouble In one video a man was carrying a box of photocopier paper when some jumped out from the behind corner and scared him….he ...read more

    What happens after we are saved? Sometimes we treat salvation like a car wash - God cleans us up and then tells us not to get dirty again. But is that really grace?

    I can’t lift very much - I don’t know how much I bench press - and even though I exercise fairly regularly, I don’t consider myself buff. But if I had a human exoskeleton I sure could be!
