    This sermon is for the occassion of an Historic Anniversary (150th) of the church, and remembers the pioneers who have gone before us; but also encourages the pioneers of this present day.

    One can almost imagine the first churches encounter with the beggar at the Beautiful Gate of the Temple.

    based on 24 ratings
     | 8,427 views

    I wonder today has the church lost something of value that we are willing to diligently seek after until we have found it. We tend to lose the anointing of God’s Spirit upon our lives and churches but we tend to move on in life like nothing has ever happe

    In the four gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, there are over 60 references to the scribes, and over 80 references to the Pharisees. Most of these references were made by Jesus, Himself.

     | 6,460 views

    The purpose of the church is to become: 1. A Faith-centered community. 2. A God-centered community 3. A World-centered community.

    As I read Erwin McManus’ book on the church entitled An Unstoppable Force, I have to say I was hit hard by a statement near the beginning, where he said: “The indictment that we must receive is that the Christian faith as we express it is no longer seen as a viable spiritual option. Masses gave ...read more

    When they saw the Nepthalim they said they became like “grasshoppers.” We want to look at this “grasshopper” complex later in the message.

    TEXT: Joshua 14:6-15; Numbers 13:26-33 TITLE: GRASSHOPPER MENTALITY Throughout this message I will be referring back to Numbers 13. In Numbers 13 we have the report of the spies as they returned back to Moses and the Children of Israel. None of the 12 that went could deny that the land of Canaan ...read more
