    Justice But Not For Us

    Contributed by Kenneth R. Jenkins on Aug 7, 2023
     | 2,209 views

    Parable of the Widow and the Unjust Judge teaches persistence, faith, and prayer, with a promise of God’s ultimate justice.

    A) Always Pray and Don’t Give Up (18:1) “Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up.” (18:1) Verse 1 starts with “Then.” Notice that this teaching on prayer follows directly on Jesus’ teaching on the coming of the Son of Man. Indeed, verse ...read more

    The Rich Young Ruler Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Aug 3, 2023
     | 3,664 views

    When the rich young ruler comes to Jesus, we have a living example before the eyes of the disciples of the contrast. Here is someone willing to pay the price of spiritual discipline, yet someone who could not with childlike faith give his all to Christ.

    What are some of the qualities that our present-day culture put’s value on? Our society values youth. The beauty industry capitalizes on the quest for the eternal youthfulness. They sell skin creams, facial packs, hair color and offer cosmetic surgery. It is all because people value ...read more

    Talk Is Cheap

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Mar 6, 2019

    Actions or works may not create faith but they can reveal the substance and form of a person’s faith. To me, works is our faith made visible. “For just as a body without the spirit is dead” … a corpse … “so faith without works is also dead” … a corpse (James 2:26).

    [Put up picture of me on screen.] Let me tell you a little bit about that man in the photo. He was 40 years old when that picture was taken. He was 20 months sober at the time. Well … “sober” is not the right word. He was a dry drunk” … which means that he hadn’t picked up a drink in 20 ...read more

    Greed - America's God Series

    Contributed by Bob Marcaurelle on Sep 10, 2020
     | 2,711 views

    What we think about the most; work the hardest for and love the most is our "god". And for most Americans, even those in our churches, this is material possessions. We worship "ourselves" and the possessions are out offerings to ourselves

    AMERICA’S GREATEST SIN - WANTING WAY TOO MUCH Matt. 6:19-27 “Do not store up treasures on earth / Store up treasures in heaven, - For where your treasure is there your heart is / No man can serve two masters / You cannot serve both God and Mammon (Money).

     | 13,478 views

    This message looks at Moses At The Red Sea, The Rich Young Ruler, And Peter's Call At The Lake, and asks us the question, "Will We Respond As They Responded." The message is good for a New Year's Message

    Will You Do It? Exodus 14:1-16 Luke 18:18-23 Luke 5:1-11 1/13/2018 There is a question that we have to answer probably a thousand times a day without even thinking about it. The reason is, there is always something seeking our attention saying, come follow me. How many times have you ...read more

     | 11,248 views

    The Rich young ruler was a good guy looking for the finishing touches on his life to secure eternal life. When he couldn't find this on his own he turns to Jesus for an answer.

    On the Road with Jesus: The Rich Young Ruler Luke 18:18-27 March 24, 2019 As we get closer to Easter, Jesus begins to get a little closer to Jerusalem.

    "i Don't Get Anything Out Of Church." Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Kruschel on Oct 7, 2019
     | 6,797 views

    People come to church with certain expectations. But are those the expectations that God wants us to come with, or are they are our own expectations? See how God's promises far exceed our expectations for church.

    “I don’t get anything out of it.” You’ve probably heard it as a reason for someone no longer going to church and maybe you’ve actually had the thought yourself. You walked out of church and thought, “I just don’t feel like I got anything out of it.” People come to church with certain ...read more

    Standing Before God

    Contributed by Nickolas Kooi on Oct 24, 2019
     | 5,942 views

    What determines our standing before God? The Pharisee, tax collector, and disciples give us an answer.

    Can there be anything more nerve wracking than being evaluated at work or school? When we are criticized or graded, we are vulnerable and exposed. We may wonder and think, “What will people say or think of me? Is what they are saying true or accurate? Do they truly see my talents and abilities, ...read more

    This sermon looks at the parable of the Tax Collector and Pharisee, and answers the question, "How do I approach God?"

    On the eve of those 500th anniversary of Martin Luther’s birth in 1983, someone wrote, “In most big libraries, books by and about Martin Luther occupy more shelf room than those concerned with any other human being except Jesus of Nazareth.” In other words, next to Jesus Christ, Martin Luther is ...read more

     | 2,506 views

    Today we celebrate our nation's freedom. Our forefathers sought freedom from England and drafted the Declaration of Independence. What about us? Why did we need to be set free, what set us free and why have we been set free?

    WHY ARE WE FREE? Today we celebrate our nation's freedom. In 1776 the Declaration of Independence was drafted. The colonists wanted to be declared free from Great Britain.

     | 410 views

    Beloved in Christ, we live in a time where the value of children is often misunderstood or minimized. Psalm 127:3 offers a divine perspective that stands in contrast to the cultural noise around us. It reminds us of a fundamental truth: Children are not burdens; they are blessings.

    Dealing with pride in the parable.

    Good Morning. Today, we get one of the hardest subjects to talk about, and that is Pride. No one really wants to examine themselves for the amount of pride they have, although pretty much everyone is expert in examining others. To begin, I’ll share a quote from CS Lewis.

    When Jesus called people to follow Him, He was upfront about the cost. He never promised discipleship would be easy, He promised it would be worth it.

    The cost of being a disciple of Jesus is profound. It’s a journey marked by surrender, sacrifice, and a willingness to lay down everything for the sake of following Christ.
