God appears to Abraham & says, "I want you to take your son & offer him as a sacrifice on the mountain that I will show you." I can’t begin to imagine how Abraham felt inside when God asked him to do that.

Do You Know Him?

Contributed by Bruce Ball on Nov 7, 2014

More of an exhortation type proclamation on who Jesus is. The better we understand Him, the more we will be able to trust Him, and the more we will be able to surrender to Him.

But as glorious of a thing as that is, it is also the main reason why more people do not come to Christ: Because they would have to surrender their own wills to ...read more

Don't You Get It

Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Sep 5, 2015

Hopefully this sermon would get people to look at themselves and realize that we should reserve judgment about others and the congregation would begin to realize that their relationship with Christ is what really matters.

Don’t you get it? Romans 2: 17 – 23 I. Are we judging people by a higher standard that we ourselves don’t live up to, do we tend to take on an attitude of privilege or perhaps a holier than thou attitude? 1. We may think this text is just for the Jews • In Galatians Paul ...read more

Are You Being Sought By God

Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Aug 31, 2022

This message is about standing in the gap for others - not condeming, hating or wishing ill on those we disagree with, but standing in the gap for them before God.

How To Know That You Are In The Light

Contributed by Dr. Abraham Obadare on Jun 14, 2025

You know you are in the light if you do not harbor hatred against anyone. 1 John 2:9 says, “He who says he is in the light and hates his brother, is in darkness until now.” Hatred is a poisonous heart condition that makes us treat others as enemies.

Song: I have the light of God in me /2x I have the spirit of the Son of God I have the light of God in me. This is one of the choruses we sing as Christians. Let us think through this song and measure ourselves against the scale of the word of God. Let us read 1 John 2:7-11, which ...read more
