Thirsty souls, looking for something more in life, are all around us. And we have the water they seek? Here's how we can make a difference for them and for eternity!

Because You Said So

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Aug 7, 2024

Last week, I got home after the message and the question came that although I am preaching on spiritual growth, have i truly explained to what end is our spiritual growth? Today, I’d like us to consider why we need spiritual growth, and what purpose?

In fact, many of you here today, may be graduates as well as teachers in the school of “Because I said so”. You know the school: You ask your mom: “Why do I ...read more

Luke 5:1-11 and Isaiah 6:1-8. What is the starting point for Christian service?

Today’s gospel reading is probably very familiar to you. If you attended Sunday school as a child, it is a Bible story that is popular to tell children. But familiarity can create blindness.

Using What You Have SermonCentral

Contributed by SermonCentral on Sep 10, 2023

God can use whatever we offer Him, no matter how insignificant it may seem. In Luke 5:1-11, Jesus uses Peter's old fishing boat and broken net, demonstrating that what matters is not the quality of what we offer, but the willingness to make it available to Him.
