Faith, Rewards And Duty (October 5, 2025 Version)

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Sep 30, 2025

This passage of scripture presents us with three things, faith, rewards and duty. If we forget about the sin warning that Jesus gives to us in this scripture, then our ingredients for true discipleship will be incomplete.

The £50 Word – Thank You

Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Oct 5, 2025

How often do you say thank you? It is so easy to take something or someone for granted when we should be grateful and all we have to do is say thank you. To say thanks doesn't cost anything but it means the world in gratitude.

Faith In Action

Contributed by Patty Groot on Oct 6, 2025

True faith isn’t about how much we have, but about trusting God enough to live it out through humble obedience, steady service, and daily forgiveness.

Our Scripture today comes from Luke. It’s a fascinating passage, one that at first seems like two unrelated teachings pressed together, but when we look closer, we discover a thread that ties them beautifully. The disciples come to Jesus and say, “Increase our faith!” (v. 5). That’s the kind of ...read more

Shooting The Wounded

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Sep 6, 2024

Everybody comfortable? Good! Now, I’m going to ask something very strange of you today. Since you are good and comfortable, go ahead and move to another seat. In another row or across the aisle. Sometimes, a slight change in perspective can make all the difference!

She finished telling the story and the first words out of my mouth were: Shootin’ the wounded! On May 21st 2004 ...read more

Sermon # 16 - Hinder No One Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 11, 2024

Jonah’s disobedience became a hindrance the entire crew of unbelievers aboard that ship. This is a caution to us that as believers we should walk in total obedience to God and not become a stumbling block to those outside the church.

We read in Jonah 1:13, “Instead, the sailors tried to get the ship to shore, rowing with all their might. But the storm was becoming worse and worse, and they got nowhere.” (GNB) As we continue these studies on the life of Jonah, there are many lessons that we can learn from the same. Though Jonah ...read more
