Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on May 3, 2021

Sermon # 7 - Throw-Off, Rebuild, Unite Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Sep 11, 2024

The call of God to the church today is to cast off everything that hinders us from reaching our destination, to rebuild the broken altars, and to work towards the unity of the body of Christ. The coming of the Lord is near and the church must be ready to receive the bridegroom.

We read in Jonah 1:5, Then the mariners were afraid, and each cried out to his god. And they hurled the cargo that was in the ship into the sea to lighten it for them. (ESV) As we continue our study on the life of Jonah and the church, I believe that God is declaring His word to the church of ...read more

The Woman Of Endor And Familiar Spirits

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on May 23, 2023

This message takes a somewhat detailed look at First Samuel 28, the record of King Saul's interaction with the woman who has a familiar spirit.

In 1978 or 1979, I was told about family members driving to Nashville – I’m from Tennessee – to see a lady because there were things going on in their lives that they didn’t understand. They had been praying but it seemed to them that God was silent. So they went to see this lady, who shared some ...read more

How The Holy Spirit Attracts People To Jesus

Contributed by Paul Fritz on Oct 18, 2000

There is no greater attractive force than love. Every person hungers to love and to be loved. The Holy Spirit pulls people to Jesus Christ with a powerful magnetic attraction that is superhuman and greater than any mind can comprehend.

Be Transformed

Contributed by John Kapteyn on Oct 18, 2000

In this coming year we hope to work well together as a church in the tasks to proclaim Christ and to worship Him. Before we can do so as a church, we as individuals need to be transformed by the renewing of our minds.

"Contemplating The Burial: The Basic Facts" Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Mar 31, 2003

There is a lot of teaching about WHY Christ died in the Scripture. There is a fair amount of teaching about the Resurrection. But the burial of Christ occupies a lesser role. Even so, keep in mind that it is one third of the Gospel. Although the Bible
