    Three Parables, One Heart: The Father's Love

    Contributed by Rev. Matthew Parker on Jun 16, 2025
     | 581 views

    This exposition of Luke chapter 15 begins with a very personal story, highlighting how God even uses human frailty as a means to His grace.

    Once upon a time, in the summertime, there was a 16-year-old young man struggling to find his way. His father held a particular secular and materialistic philosophy about life and making meaning in the world—something the young man had tried to embrace, but it ultimately left him feeling empty. ...read more

    Just Like My Dad (A Father's Day Sermon On The Prodigal Son)

    Contributed by James Jackson on Jun 16, 2025
     | 812 views

    In the Parable of the Prodigal Son (which is really the Parable of the Loving Father) we get a picture of how our heavenly Father loves us.

    Good morning, and Happy Father’s Day! Please turn in (or turn on) your copy of God’s Word and scroll to Luke 15. While you’re turning there, I want to share some photos with you. This past Wednesday, JonWorth encouraged our students to dress like their dad. And the results were hilarious. (Show ...read more

    The Shepherd's Sacred Heart Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 22, 2025
     | 212 views

    Jesus, who is the Second Person of the Trinity and True God, is in His human nature like a shepherd for all of us who believe in Him.

    Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus 2025 Before we look at today’s Scriptures, let’s look back even before king Saul and King David to the time when the Israelites were led by Judges. The greatest of these was Samuel. In the first book of Samuel, chapter 8, we see a picture of Samuel when he ...read more

    Sermon # 32 - A Life That God Rejoices Over Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jul 2, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 318 views

    We are made in the image of God and our emotions too are expressions of the way God feels about us. It’s good to examine ourselves to see if God rejoices over us or is He grieved about us. Also the plans we make should always be in alignment with God’s will so He does not have to scorn them.

    We read in Zephaniah 3:17, “The LORD your God is mighty in your midst; He will save; He will rejoice over you with joy; He will rest in His love; He rejoices over you with singing.” (AFV) We also read in Psalm 2:4, “From his throne in heaven the Lord laughs and mocks their feeble plans.” (GNB) It ...read more

    What The World Needs Now

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 27, 2025
     | 53 views

    Jesus reaches the world through His people today. When we love like Him, our city sees Him. We were made for this time.

    INTRODUCTION — The World Is Exhausted… And It Shows I saw a shirt the other day that said: “Running on coffee and a playlist of coping mechanisms.” It felt a little too accurate. Our world is full of people who… • are overwhelmed by their calendars • carry silent battles in their minds • keep ...read more

    So Near -- So Far

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 29, 2025
     | 86 views

    Older brothers get lost at home—close to God yet far from His heart—but the Father invites them inside to enjoy His joy.

    INTRODUCTION – MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND Today our nation pauses to remember those who gave their lives for freedom. For many, Memorial Day is a date on the calendar; for me, it is a name. My older brother Bob, now laid to rest in Arlington National Cemetery, reminds me that freedom always carries a ...read more

    The Ache For Meaning

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 29, 2025
     | 88 views

    Every human ache for meaning is the soul remembering its Maker—God’s embrace disguised as longing, inviting us home to relationship and rest

    (When the Soul Remembers God) It began with a phone call. My oldest son’s voice was steady at first, then it trembled. He’s forty-one now—bright, competent, a systems manager for a defense company, respected by his peers. On paper, everything about his life says success. Yet that afternoon, ...read more

    Do You Ever Feel Like A Motherless Child?

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 31, 2025
     | 42 views

    Through Christ, every orphaned heart finds adoption and belonging—turning lament into song and distance into home in the Father’s embrace.

    I. The Song That Never Dies Every culture has its songs of longing — the melodies that rise from somewhere words cannot reach. The Irish have “Danny Boy.” The Armenians sing “Dle Yaman.” The Jews mourn “By the Rivers of Babylon.” And from the dark fields of the American South came one of the most ...read more

    Lost Sons And A Prodigal Father Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Nov 3, 2025
     | 138 views

    While the parable of the prodigal son reveals some things about the lostness of the younger son, it also reveals the lostness of the elder son and the prodigal love of God.

    How do you view God? Some people view God as a heavy-handed, demanding judge with strict rules of right and wrong. Others view God like a doting grand-father who willingly gives his grandchildren whatever they want - practically spoiling them. Some may view God as aloof and distant, uninterested or ...read more

    A Heart For The Lost

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 3, 2025
     | 45 views

    God’s love moves first, searches tirelessly, and rejoices loudly—calling us to join His rescue mission for every wandering heart.

    It’s funny how easily we can tune things out. I fly often, and when the attendants go through the safety speech, hardly anyone listens. We’ve heard it all before, and it doesn’t feel relevant—we don’t expect the plane to crash. Sometimes the church sounds that way to the world. The message is ...read more

    Run To The Father

    Contributed by Rev. Duraimony Dickson on Nov 10, 2025
     | 69 views

    No matter where you’ve been, what you’ve done, or how often you stumble, God calls you to run to Him. There is freedom, joy, and restoration waiting. And the most beautiful part? He runs to meet you, carries you if needed, and celebrates your return.

    Run to the Father Grace to you peace from God our Father and Lord Jesus Christ! Dear brothers and sisters! Today we are going to explore running to the Father. I want you to imagine something with me. Picture a child playing far from home, distracted by everything around — maybe chasing a ...read more

     | 134 views

    Born into a broken world, we can’t rewrite the past—but grace lets us choose the ending and start again with Jesus.

    1 · The Start You Never Chose Ever think about how little control you had over showing up here? You didn’t pick your family, your DNA, your town, your decade.

    When The Fire Goes Out

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 12, 2025
     | 46 views

    Apathy melts when wounded believers encounter the gentle, pursuing love of Jesus—and a church that mirrors His compassion becomes a place where hearts burn again.

    I want to talk to you this morning about something that sits quietly in the corners of our churches. It doesn’t shout. It doesn’t slam doors. It doesn’t usually make the headlines in church board minutes. But it drains the life out of congregations and breaks the heart of Jesus. I want to talk ...read more
