    based on 1 rating
     | 4,193 views

    One of the greatest obstacles to you finding freedom in a world that seeks to bind you…. IS YOU!

    Finding Freedom From Yourself One day Jesus left the crowds to pray alone. AND BTW MGCC - that is a really good thing to do at times. To leave the noise and the crowd (yeah, they’ll be fine without you) and to get alone with God. IN FACT – for some in this room that is exactly what you need to ...read more

    How’s your bucket list? Remember, we’re dealing with some of the items the Bible teaches are important for us to tend to before we kick the bucket! That means investing in what matters, and figuring out what’s true. Today we add a new item. Remember also that we’re working on projects that will ...read more

    Easter Message: Going All In

    Contributed by Dennis Lee on Apr 4, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,677 views

    Today's Easter Message is how Jesus went all the way in His death and burial, but also came all the way out in His resurrection. And to follow His example we need go all the way in in our relationship with Him, we'll come out saved, sanctified, and glorified in heaven.

    An Easter Message “Going All In” Billy Graham once told Time magazine, “If I were an enemy of Christianity, I would aim right at the Resurrection, because that is the heart of Christianity.” (Billy Graham) (Crosswalk “A World Without Easter”) You see, Christianity is all about Jesus going all in, ...read more

    Staying On Track (Part 1) Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 7, 2020
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,570 views

    Many Christians begin with zeal, but get sidetracked along the way. Some are distracted with career ambitions. Others let hobbies or other interests take more and more time. The most heartbreaking is when someone is sidetracked by a false doctrine. Message expounds Philippians 3:15-21.

    Intro In our study of Philippians, we find ourselves in the last seven verses of chapter 3. In the verses just prior to this text Paul introduced the metaphor of running a race like they run in the Olympics. His instruction there was that we keep our focus on the finish line; we do not look back; ...read more

    Sometimes speaking the truth will not be accepted, but many times we are called to Stand Up for God's Truth and don't understand how it will be used for God's Glory.

    Grace Under Fire Acts 7:54-60 The Stoning of Stephen 54 When the members of the Sanhedrin heard this, they were furious and gnashed their teeth at him. 55 But Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, looked up to heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. 56 “Look,” he ...read more

    Message deals with current deception "Progressive Christianity" while expounding Philippians 3:19. Many young Evangelicals are being drawn into the Progressive Christianity error which denies Christ as only way of salvation and supports ungodly lifestyles.

    We are at a crucial time in our nation, and the best response we can have to all that’s going on around us is to seek the Lord. As Christians we should vote responsibly. We should be light and salt. We should engage the culture with the truth of God’s word. But our most powerful weapon against evil ...read more

    The Cost Of Discipleship Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Oct 12, 2020
     | 18,201 views

    Billy Graham used to say: "Salvation is free, but discipleship will cost you everything." That is an accurate expression of the teachings of Jesus on the cost of discipleship. In this sermon, we explore what it means to pay the cost of discipleship.

    A. I like the old classic joke about the chicken and the pig who were talking about going into business. 1. The chicken says: “Hey Pig, we should open a restaurant.” The pig replies: “I’m not sure, what would we call it?” 2. The chicken answers: “What if we called it ‘Ham and Eggs’?” The pig ...read more
