    Hey there! All who are thirsty, come to the water! Are you penniless? Come anyway—buy and eat! Come, buy your drinks, buy wine and milk. Buy without money—everything’s free! No Such thing as Free Lunch!

    ““Hey there! All who are thirsty, come to the water! Are you penniless? Come anyway—buy and eat! Come, buy your drinks, buy wine and milk. Buy without money—everything’s free!

    We are living in a remarkable age—an age of breathtaking technological advancement. In just one generation, we’ve gone from rotary phones to smartphones, from libraries to the internet, from hand-written letters to global instant communication.

    "Beware lest you say in your heart, ‘My power and the might of my hand have gained me this wealth.’ But you shall remember the LORD your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth…" —Deuteronomy 8:17–18a (NKJV) ---Introduction: A Moment of Pride--- We are living in a ...read more

    Introduction Martin Luther was one of the most important figures of the Protestant Reformation. Throughout his life, he experienced many serious health crises. One of the most notable instances occurred in 1527, during a challenging period for him personally and professionally. In the summer of ...read more

    Abomination And Secret Sins

    Contributed by Gary Martin on Jul 6, 2024
     | 1,109 views

    People secretly sin (in other words they hide their sin) and still come to church and play a game with God trying to make everyone believe that they are still living right in their life.

    Abominations Before God 2 Corinthians 6:1-2; 14-17 KJV 1 We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain. 2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; ...read more

    Festering Pharoah Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 6, 2025
     | 204 views

    God turns up the heat on pride, not to destroy but to heal—transforming our ashes into grace and our wounds into worship.

    Egypt thought it had already seen the worst of it. The rivers had bled, the frogs had croaked, the flies had swarmed. But pride is hard of hearing. Pharaoh still stood tall, still folded his arms, still told God, “Not today.” So God turned up the heat. No thunder this time. No frogs hopping down ...read more

    Inner Nature

     | 201 views

    The inner man or inner nature has so much power to destroy people and take away the kingdom of God from them. It can cause one to fall on his or her way from this earth to heaven. All of you who have the opportunity to read this write-up should set aside time to fast and pray concerning this matter.

    God created us perfectly, in His own image. He created us to be godly, and 1 Tim 6:6 says godliness with contentment is great gain. God created us to be like Him, but the enemy came and messed us up. Jesus described Satan as a liar and chief of liars (a great deceiver), John 8:44 This murderer and ...read more

    Peace Too Late

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 15, 2025
     | 130 views

    Abner’s delayed surrender and Joab’s proud revenge reveal how pride postpones peace—but David’s mercy shows the heart of true kingship.

    Introduction – A Name That Holds Two Stories My name is David Abner—two names that once stood on opposite sides of a kingdom. One carried the harp and the crown. The other carried the sword and the seal of command. Two men, both strong, both loyal, both flawed, whose paths met too late for ...read more

    God’s mercy will block your path, speak through unlikely voices, and stop you before you destroy yourself — if you’ll listen.

    Opening Illustration – “Ever had your GPS yell at you?” You ever argue with your GPS? You know that calm, polite voice that starts out helpful but eventually sounds like it’s losing patience? > “In two hundred feet, turn left.” “Recalculating.” “Make a U-turn. Make a U-turn.

    A Quieted Soul

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 17, 2025

    Psalm 131 invites restless hearts into humility and hope—trusting God’s presence over answers, like a weaned child content with mother.

    It’s easy to worry. Anxiety is normal. Fear is expected. There’s plenty to be anxious about. I once heard a guy on the radio say, “Anyone who doesn’t have high blood pressure these days just isn’t paying attention.” And maybe he’s right—because we live in a world wound tight with hurry and ...read more

    Cain sought God’s favor without surrender, but Christ’s blood still speaks—calling every heart from self-made worship to obedient, Spirit-filled revival.

    The Conflict at the Altar Every human being builds an altar. Some offer obedience; some offer opinion. Every life lifts something before God—work, worship, wealth, reputation—and waits for fire to fall. That is where the story of Cain and Abel begins: two brothers, two altars, two hearts, one ...read more

    Love Is Not Boastful Or Proud

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Nov 24, 2025
     | 66 views

    So instead of boasting, we can and should be thankful. Thankful that what God did at Calvary is enough for us. Thankful that the price Jesus paid for our sins was the right price. Thankful that when Jesus said it was finished, He meant it.

    Alba 11-23-2025 LOVE IS NOT BOASTFUL OR PROUD I Corinthians 13:4 According to a story in the Grand Rapids Press sometime ago, when foreign cars were new to the U.S., the owner of a small foreign car had begun to irritate his friends by bragging incessantly about his good gas mileage. So they ...read more

    This sermon explores the authority of Jesus as the Messiah, the pride and blindness of the Pharisees, and the call for humility and inclusivity in faith.

    Welcome church! Today we’ve got an interesting passage about the authority of Jesus and the inability of the Pharisees to see Jesus for who He is. And, smack dab in the middle of it all there is a parable about 2 sons. How are these things related? Why is authority important and what role does ...read more

    Last time we saw that Peter’s overconfidence and pride kept him from trusting the Lord. His pride began to cut away at his faith. His weak faith in Jesus began to give way to fear. Denying the Lord Jesus was a natural consequence of this fear. Someone has said, “The conclusion of a dying faith ...read more

    Go! And Live What Jesus Expected - Revelation 3:15-16 Series

    Contributed by Dean Courtier on May 5, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 899 views

    Biblical obedience. Daily surrender. Sacrificial love. Passionate evangelism. Unashamed holiness. These are not lofty, elite-level Christian goals—they are the standard Jesus set. The normal Christian life, in Jesus’ eyes, is anything but lukewarm.

    Go! And Live What Jesus Expected Revelation 3:15-16 (NLT): "I know all the things you do, that you are neither hot nor cold. I wish that you were one or the other! But since you are like lukewarm water, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth!" Introduction: Setting the ...read more
