    Jesus said that he came so that we could have life and have it more abundantly. God loves us, so that we can love ourselves, in order to love others.

    How can we love ourselves Things we don’t like about ourselves Tattoos People don’t like my preaching I intentionally hurt another person Other person intentionally hurt me I’m overweight I’m out-of-style Psychologists say that everyone of us has things that we keep hidden from the outside ...read more

    This sermon explores the profound, active nature of God's love, demonstrated through His sacrifice of His only Son for the salvation of believers.

    Good morning, dear church family. We gather here today, not as strangers or as mere acquaintances, but as brothers and sisters united in the love of our heavenly Father. A love so profound, so unending, that it surpasses our understanding. I stand here today, not to preach my own words, but to ...read more

    In preparing this sermon this week I found myself in somewhat of a quandary in regards to how to approach today’s sermon topic: love and romance.

    In preparing this sermon this week I found myself in somewhat of a quandary in regards to how to approach today’s sermon topic: love and romance. The reason for my distress is that today is Valentines Day. For some it’s a great and wonderful day because you are in love with somebody. For others ...read more

    Love Came Down At Christmas

    Contributed by Reggie Corfield on Dec 22, 2024
     | 584 views

    At Christmas if all we speak about is Jesus and the manger in isolation of his life of love and sacrifice we are doing the gospel a disservice. Christmas is a redemption story - tell it with all its glory.

    As we prepare for Christmas, sometimes I wonder if we have allowed the Savior to be stolen from our celebrations. I say this because “Merry Christmas” has been replaced with “Happy Holidays”, businesses exclude Christmas by saying “holiday sale” and when someone asks if you are ready for Christmas ...read more

    Approaching this Mother’s Day message, two distinct things came to mind. The first was the lovingkindness of God, and the second was the story of Hagar. Therefore, what we will be looking at is then Hagar and the lovingkindness of God.

    God’s Loving Kindness Psalm 63:3 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b38ttun-apc As I was approaching what to say for this Mother’s Day message, two distinct things came as I was in prayer. The first was to look at the lovingkindness of God, and the second was the story of Hagar. Now, ...read more

    #4 in a series. God is pouring out a whole new level of city-wide cooperation amongst churches and church leaders. Prayer-Care-Share is a concentrated effort focusing on "Building Bridges to our Community"...loving our communities to Christ.

    PRAYING FOR MY CIRCLE OF INFLUENCE: MY STORY By Intern Pastor Dave Doyle I’ve been excited by the whole concept of churches in Cedar Rapids coming together in prayer. Think about it. Jesus said that wherever two or more are gathered in His name, He is there as well. Now try to imagine the power ...read more

    The story of Jeroboam and Rehoboam teaches us the importance of wisdom, and we can draw many applicable conclusions from their stories.

    Note: This sermon is by Daniel Kirkendall, our Associate Minister. Call on God for Wisdom 1 Kings 12:1-29 In this text we see the division of the kingdom of Israel following the death of Solomon, and the events that led to the division.

    We don’t have to do anything to earn God’s love. God loves us because we belong to Him. This was the final sermon in a series called That’s Outrageous.

    Outrageous Love Romans 5: 1-8 We are living in a society that rewards success and punishes failure. From a very early age we are taught and conditioned to make good grades, to do well, to succeed, and to achieve. ---Those who do well are often the recipients of rewards, opportunities and ...read more

    Christmas Story Was In Unimpressive Surroundings - Yet A Spectacular Event

    Contributed by Tim Baker on Dec 19, 2017
     | 5,218 views

    The birth of Christ was in an unimpressive city, with an unimpressive birthing room, with an unimpressive crib, with unimpressive visitors, for the most impressive event in human history. Why did Jesus start with such humble beginnings?

    This message can be heard at https://www.buzzsprout.com/132453/611501-unimpressive-surroundings-spectacular-event Disclaimer.

    True love comes from Almighty God.

    Text: “Love has been perfected among us…” (v. 17) How long has love been around? How would you answer that question? We have all experienced love in some form. Our families love us. As babies, we had parents who loved us. As we grew older we “fell in love” with a particular person. Love has ...read more

    Father’s Day service looking at Jesus our Father King (6th in Worship the King series). It’s the Prodigal Son story, but more like the Faithful Father aspect.

    Luke 15:11-32 – How to Love a Wandering Child Apparently, some kids had talked Mom into getting a hamster. They promised to take care of their pet, whom they named “Danny.” Within two months, though, Mom was taking care of Danny. One day Mom decided enough was enough; Danny would be given ...read more

    Jesus love is raging, it’s extravagant, it’s illogical, it’s over-the-top, it’s revolutionary, it pushes the boundaries of how we define love.

    A while back there was a news story on the BBC about a teenage girl in England who had her boyfriend’s nickname tattooed in Chinese on her stomach, symbolic of her “undying love” for him. A tattoo on your stomach?—that’s got to hurt. A little later—and who would ...read more
