    Reigniting Your Life

    Contributed by Dennis Lee on Nov 14, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,199 views

    This message is about getting reigniting for God, filled and overflowing with faith, hope, and love. Everyone is experiencing difficult times that sometimes taken our breath away. And what we need is that divine spark from God to get ourselves reignited to move forward in faith and in hope.

    Reigniting Your Life Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HArX_wEUoFs In last week’s message we looked at our need to have our lives reset back to God’s original design or setting, and then we looked at how that reset happens. At the end I gave a series of steps, and in the last step we ...read more

    What Do We Do With This Gospel? (Luke, Part 14) Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Apr 24, 2022
     | 1,411 views

    The believer, US, is to be equipped and ready to proclaim the good news. The good news that Jesus is alive, and He brings peace to all, and it is why we come to this place, to study and worship – to be equipped - then to be ready to go outside this place and share the truth!

    What do we do with this Gospel? (Luke, Part 14) Luke 24:13-53 Introduction / Recap - Last week, we discussed the most pivotal event in the Christian faith -- The proof that our future is assured because our Savior, Jesus, is alive -- It is why we celebrate Easter – it’s why we rejoice (He ...read more

    Ascension (And Decension)

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on May 7, 2022
     | 1,044 views

    I would like to talk about Ascending with Christ in our bodies by the Cross, which helps our minds and ideas. John Chrysostom said that the Cross establishes my thoughts, so that I may sing and glorify Thy saving Ascension.”

    Christ descended to the lowest depths of humiliation, then raised up to the height of exaltation, Ephesians 4:8 says. The ascension life. “We can ascend with him in our hearts,” Saint Augustine said, “set your hearts on the things that are above where Christ is, … not on the things that are on ...read more

    Just What Does "taken Up" Mean For Jesus?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 20, 2022
     | 1,501 views

    When I was ten, that meant that Jesus went up into the clouds and literally sat at the right hand of the Father, on a throne in the clouds. But no more.

    Ascension Day One commonality that men and women my age have in the U.S., no matter what religion we were raised in, is the story of Jesus. If I bet money, I’d lay odds that anyone age 65 or older in 2022 can at least give a general outline of the life of Christ, even if he or she didn’t think ...read more

    When Catastrophe Happens, What Next?

    No external law can fix a problem that comes from deep within a twisted mind and heart.

    Ascension 2022 I polished up my Ascension Day homily last Sunday. Then I tore it up on Tuesday afternoon. Senseless, mindless murder down the road in Uvalde, a place many of us have visited or lived. When catastrophe happens anywhere in the world, don’t we all grieve, and ask “Lord, WHY?” “What ...read more

    Becoming A Jacob Generation

    The Jacob Generation is a generation that will see revival break out. And the Lord desires for everyone to be a part of this Jacob generation, a generation that seeks after God. “This is Jacob, the generation of those who seek Him, who seek Your face.” (Psalm 24:6)

    Becoming A Jacob Generation Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaamIIqonZU What is a Jacob Generation, and why is it important? Well, it has to do with what David talked about in Psalm 24. “Who may ascend into the hill of the Lord? Or who may stand in His holy place? He who has clean ...read more

    The Road To Pentecost

    To experience Pentecost’s life changing reality and the fullness of the Holy Spirit, we must first have to experience Gethsemane, Calvary, and the Empty Tomb. Come and join us on this journey.

    “The Road to Pentecost” Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTTRLw_2JDk Last week I made a statement where I said that we have to stop seeking the experience of Pentecost, that is, the experience of the Holy Spirit, and instead we need to seek Pentecost’s or the Holy Spirit’s life changing ...read more

    Six Spiritual Absolutes

    Contributed by Howard Strickland on Mar 10, 2022
     | 2,325 views

    All 120 were filled with the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost. Peter testified and exhorted after this initial infilling, and 3,000 more souls were added to the church. The church experienced the infilling of the Holy Spirit and its power!

    Six Spiritual Absolutes Found In— Acts 2:40-47NKJV I love the story about the Lutheran pastor who always started each service off with the phrase, “The Lord be with you.” The people then responded, “And also with you.” However, one Sunday the sound system wasn't working very well. The Pastor ...read more

    Has The Resurrection Changed You?

    Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Mar 22, 2023

     | 3,518 views

    If we aren't in awe of the resurrection of Jesus as a historical event, we may only see it as a fairytale. The resurrection is scientifically impossible, but historically true. The resurrection is history-making, earth-shaking, life-transforming, and eternity-changing truth.

    Jesus is the risen King who is victorious over death, recognized by His disciples, validated by Scripture, and enthroned over all creation. That truth changes our faith, theology, and life. The resurrection also changes our practical living. The resurrection isn't just a doctrine to believe, ...read more

    Our Mission From The Ascension Series

     | 1,562 views

    Jesus proclaimed before His ascension that we are to preach "repentance for the forgiveness of sins" in His name. May we take this as our mission to tell others.

    TRAVELING WITH JESUS WAS ALWAYS AN ENCOUNTER THAT WAS ALWAYS LIFE-CHANGING AND SPIRIT-DIRECTING MOMENTS WHERE EYES, MINDS, AND HEARTS WERE OPENED TO THE MESSAGE OF GOD’S REDEEMING LOVE THROUGH JESUS. THIS PARTICULAR DAY WOULD BE NO DIFFERENT. IT HAD BEEN 40-DAYS SINCE JESUS HAD RISEN FROM THE ...read more

    The resurrection of Jesus was unexpected, and beyond human explanation and understanding, and in violation of all-natural laws.

    The resurrection of Jesus was unexpected, and beyond human explanation and understanding, and in violation of all-natural laws. But it was true. It was what God did to give proof and power to all of the life and ministry of Jesus. On the first Easter, those who were the closet to Jesus were the ...read more

    An Ascension Gift Basket For You!

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on May 22, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 20,005 views

    Although the Bible doesn’t call it a “gift basket” it does use the word “gifts” in connection with our Savior’s ascension into heaven. Because of Jesus' ascension we receive many gifts. In Luke's account of the ascension we notice three.

    We call them “gift baskets.” They might be for holidays like Christmas or Easter. Or they may be given for someone’s birthday, or perhaps an anniversary. Now as you think of gift baskets what makes them different from other gifts? Although perhaps you can think of many more things that make ...read more

    Learn how to bring to bear the power, authority, and resources of heaven to your situation. While it's Super Bowl Sunday for the world, it's Super Sunday at church. Jesus said, “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” (Matthew 6:33)

    Luke and Acts give us a great look at the ascension. How Jesus handled Himself for 40 days before He was taken up! Powerful!

    -We Are Acts. Luke 24:44-53 The first four books of the New Testament are commonly called the gospels. The fifth book, The Acts of the apostles, is tied to Luke by common authorship. So Luke wrote the gospel of Luke, and the book of Acts. That is important, because Luke gives us two accounts of ...read more
