    Life Is A Beach

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 23, 2025
     | 374 views

    Jesus calls every disciple to daily self-denial and Spirit-empowered cross-bearing that ends not in loss but in resurrection life.

    (Losing to Gain) Part 1 – The Comfortable Illusion It sounds so inviting: Life is a beach. The phrase promises calm tides, soft sand, a life where the hardest choice is whether to nap or swim. We crave that ease. Sometimes we even remake God in that image—faith as a sunny getaway where problems ...read more

    Let Go Of My Ego

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 9, 2025
     | 303 views

    True victory comes when the ego dies and Christ lives through us—surrendering self to gain the freedom and fullness of His Spirit.

    Part 1 – The Waffle and the War 1. A Breakfast Battle You’ve seen the commercial. A sleepy kid stumbles into the kitchen clutching a golden waffle. Just as he’s about to take a bite, a sibling swoops in. They wrestle and shout the famous line: “Leggo my Eggo!” It’s silly, harmless, ...read more

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 23, 2025
     | 338 views

    Following Jesus means trusting His leadership, surrendering self-rule, embracing transformation, and walking daily with the Shepherd whose presence shapes every step.

    There is a tenderness in the way Jesus calls people. He never shouts to impress the crowd. He never manipulates the moment. He never forces Himself upon anyone. Instead, He speaks in a way that reaches the deepest places of the heart and invites a response that is both personal and ...read more

    As we finish our series on elevating discipleship to the next level, I want to examine the discipleship process as described by Jesus in Luke 9:23 and then reflect on the power available to be fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ.

    Go! And Follow Jesus: The Call That Changes Everything Series

    Contributed by Dean Courtier on Dec 11, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 707 views

    The call of Jesus to every person in every generation is profoundly simple and eternally life-changing: “Follow Me.” Two words that rescue sinners. Two words that redirect destinies. Two words that produce disciples. Two words that define Christianity.

AND FOLLOW JESUS: THE CALL THAT CHANGES EVERYTHING” ---------------------------------------------------------------------- SERIES INTRODUCTION “DISCIPLESHIP (FOLLOWING JESUS)” As we begin this new year together, we step into a journey that is both ancient and urgently needed—the journey of ...read more

    Last words matter. The final recorded words of Jesus before He ascended in glory are not suggestions - they are not optional extras for “special Christians.” They are orders from our risen Lord and King.

    Sent by the King: Following Jesus into a World That Needs the Gospel – Matthew 28:19–20 Introduction – The Call That Still Echoes Church, some final words change everything. A last embrace. A final instruction. A parting commission. The words of a dying parent. The charge of a commanding ...read more

     | 3,364 views

    This week we’ll look at a heart filled with purpose, a heart dedicated to God, His word, and His way. And in this study, we’ll not only be looking at the life of Daniel, but also at what Paul said to the Philippians about Jesus, and Jesus’s description of a disciple.

    The 7 Churches Of Revelation (Part 2) Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Jul 16, 2023
     | 1,347 views

    This concludes our examination of the 7 churches of Revelation, and each of these churches has a very specific letter given to it. Although sometimes subtle, there is a very common theme to each letter: a church that allows the world to influence it is NOT being faithful to Jesus Christ.

    Your first decision to follow Jesus should influence every other decision you make in life.

    “You can enter God’s Kingdom only through the narrow gate. The highway to hell is broad, and its gate is wide for the many who choose that way. But the gateway to life is very narrow and the road is difficult, and only a few ever find it.” Matthew 7:13-14, NLT “If any of you wants to be my ...read more

    The Call Of Jesus Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Jun 16, 2025
     | 627 views

    While Jesus announces for the first time to his disciples his call to the cross, He calls us to confess who he is and calls us to live a crucified life.

    I would guess that we are probably similar in that we get so many unwanted calls each day. Somehow, I’ve been getting calls for some group who says they can get me on Social Security Disability. Other times I’ve been on the list for VA loans - except I’m not a veteran. I’ve received calls for ...read more

    Who Is Jesus To You

    Contributed by Reggie Corfield on Jun 21, 2025
     | 545 views

    Millions around the world know of Jesus but only a fraction of those actually know him. The mission of every Church should be to know Jesus and make him known. On a personal level, who is Jesus to you?

    Todays gospel reading in Luke is the same story also found in Matthew ch.16. The Matthew account has much more detail and so I will use that so we can better understand the story. The geographical setting of today’s gospel story is Caesarea Philippi. This town is located in the North East ...read more

    Why Does Jesus Tell His Disciples Not To Tell People That He Is The Christ Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jul 1, 2025
     | 580 views

    This passage provides an interesting insight into why Jesus told His disciples not to tell anyone He was the Christ.

    KEEP QUIET: Proclaiming that Jesus was the Christ would create a lot of wrong expectations. - Luke 9:18-21. - It’s an odd thing to hear Jesus telling His disciples to not tell people that He is the Christ. You would generally think that He would want it proclaimed often and loudly from every ...read more
