    In a divided world, the call to open our hearts to authentic Christian love is crucial. Through unity in the church, strong family bonds, and a deep connection with God, we can reflect Christ's love powerfully.

    Open Up Your Hearts! The Gift of Authentic Christian Love 2 Corinthians 6:11-13 Introduction: Brothers and sisters in Christ, I am deeply grateful for this opportunity to speak with you today.

    Everyone A Leader?

    Contributed by Victor Nazareth on Sep 24, 2002
    based on 40 ratings
     | 3,842 views

    Can everyone become a leader in the local church? The writer of Hebrews is bemoaning that after so much time the saints were still immature. Is that the case of the church today? Everyone is expected to be and can be a leader!

    Introduction: The fervor of the early church was already dwindling by the time of the writing of this later book of the New Testament. Persecution was causing many to fall away. The writer is bemoaning the fact that by this time many of them should have been teachers. They were still spiritual ...read more

    Christ's Farewell

    based on 154 ratings
     | 15,079 views

    Many times a "final" farewell surrounds the death of a friend or loved one, but Christ’s farewell was about comfort, vision, and encouragement to his disciples and the Church.

    Have you ever spoken with someone knowing it was the last time you would see them and your last opportunity to speak with them? I remember having that type of conversation with a cousin several years ago. He was dying from a terminal disease, and Paula and I made the trip to see and speak with Pat ...read more

    Why can’t people help but say "I love this place" It is because of our purpose and strategy. This message deals with why we exist as a church.

    “I Love this Place” part 1 (The Power of Purpose) Brian A. Moon One of golf’s immortal moments came when a Scotchman demonstrated the new game to President Ulysses Grant.

    This is an introduction to a study of 2 John. Is the chosen lady an individual or is it a church?

    As we continue to study the writings of the Apostle John, we come to the book of 2 John. It is believed to be written by the Apostle John around 85-95 AD.

    based on 10 ratings
     | 3,418 views

    Being the church requires we show one another the full extent of our love.

    I’ll wash yours if you wash mine. Thinking about last week and the verse John 13:34 and 35 where Jesus says “A new command I give you love one another as I have loved you. All men will know that you are my disciples if you love one another.” We talked loving each other as Jesus loved us and ...read more

    As a Christian, we have a duty to love our Lord and love each other, for the Word of God says there are no other commandments greater than these.

    Romans 12:9-21 OPENING: In a sense, Paul is telling us how to act or behave towards others, on God’s behalf. This is how the Lord wants us to behave while in waiting for His Second Coming.

    Living Under Judgement And Loving It.

    Contributed by Cameron Conway on Oct 3, 2018
     | 3,108 views

    God is not just storing up all of His judgments for the last day like some vindictive squirrel, but He is watching and judging the world, the church and ourselves constantly.

    At one point or another you’ve probably heard a Christian talk about God’s judgment falling on some person, place, organization, or even on yourself. Biblically it is the great equalizer that reminds us that one day we are all to stand before God for our celestial hearing (Revelation 20:11-15) ...read more

    The church is not supposed to mimic other human institutions. It is built up the foundation of never-ending love – supernatural power - unsearchable riches –immeasurable vision.

    OPEN: So as we’ve begun exploring the fourth chapter of Ephesians – we’ve been looking at a proper response to the blessing Jesus provides for those who are in the Church. These are all first response issues – these are the baby steps. If we don’t get these first ...read more

    Love one another. Seventeen times in the New Testament we are called to love one another. It is told to us by 3 authors in 7 different New Testament Books. It is also the only one another statement that comes directly from the lips of Jesus.

    Introduction Last week we began our series “you ought to see a whole lot of “one anotherness” going on in the church house” and we talked about the first of the two pillars upon which all the rest of the “one anothers” depend upon. And if you remember, the first pillar was forgiveness- there ...read more

     | 1,330 views

    This sermon focuses attention on the kind of relationship that God desire each of us to aspire to in order to enjoy genuine relationships. It uses the story of the friendship between Jonathan and David to illustrate the type relationship God blesses.

    Three simple words, words worth dying for! “I Love you.” Ernest T. Bass, a character from “The Andy Griffith Show” gives us a glimpse of a friendship moment: “Malcom, I ain’t gonna touch a hair on your head. You’re my friend, my true friend.
