    Preparing our hearts for the true Advent of life; the second coming of Jesus Christ.

    We do so much to prepare for Christmas. We prepare for Christmas by decorating our houses…shopping…and so on. We prepare for guests to come: clean and straighten the house, prepare a meal. We try not to wait ‘til the last minute to prepare, for it may be too late. Malachi is ...read more

    God is not distant from us; in Christ, He is us, and He gives us the grace to forgive and be healed.

    4th Sunday of Advent 2014 Extraordinary Form About a quarter century ago Bette Midler recorded a song by Julie Gold called “from a distance.” The idea behind the lengthy lyrics is that if you get far enough away from planet earth, it all looks green and blue and serene. You ...read more

    And on the way home Jana said, with great satisfaction "I had the main part in the play!" "You did?"wondering why she thought that. "Yes," she said, "'cause I showed everybody how to find Jesus!" Wouldn't that be a wonderful way to be remembered.

Requires much preparation: ....clean, .....dust ...... vacuum....new sheets on the beds,.....fresh towels in the ...read more

    John the Baptist was an unexpected person bringing an unexpected message at an unexpected time. A communion sermon for Advent.

    Every one of us has certain expectations at Christmas. We expect to buy gifts and we expect to receive gifts. We expect the lights and the colors and the sights and the sounds of the season. We expect to eat a lot! We expect long lines in the department stores, and apparently this year more than ...read more

  • What Is Repentance?

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 3, 2024
     | 2,452 views

    We are only given a brief interval to repent, so we need to know what repentance is, who needs to repent, and when our chance to repent will expire.

    WHAT IS REPENTANCE? Luke 3:1-3,7-9 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. I heard about a man who smoked cigarettes. He began reading articles on cigarettes and became alarmed by the strong relationship between smoking and lung cancer. 2. He finally confided in a friend; “I’ve been reading so many ...read more

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 28, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,356 views

    What is God’s purpose for establishing the church? Are we fulfilling this purpose or running in the wrong direction like Jonah did? As a church may we realize our purpose and fulfill it at all cost.

    We read in Jonah 1:3, “But Jonah rose to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD. He went down to Joppa and found a ship going to Tarshish. So he paid the fare and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish, away from the presence of the LORD.” (ESV) The word of the Lord we saw in the ...read more

  • The Urgency Of Repenting Today

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Feb 2, 2021
     | 2,841 views

    Now—and not later—is the time to begin a different way of life. And what makes this call so urgent? It is this one, undeniable fact: Christ is on his way.

    The men who bring God’s Word have a difficult job. It’s not the years of study before entering the ministry. It’s not the many hours spent writing sermons. It’s not even getting over the fear of public speaking. Bringing God’s Word is difficult because of what that Word means. It’s a serious Word. ...read more

  • Sermon # 25- Arise And Go Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 13, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 765 views

    Once the fish had vomited Jonah out, God’s call came to the prophet to arise and go to Nineveh and preach to the people. God’s call to the church is to take the good news of the gospel to those outside. May we too arise and go to fulfill the great commission of Jesus.

    We read in Jonah 3:1-2, Then the word of the LORD came to Jonah the second time, saying, “Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and call out against it the message that I tell you.”(ESV) These are the words of God to Jonah after the fish vomited him out onto the shore. We are not sure in what ...read more
