    The Heart Of God's Man (Part 2) Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Dec 9, 2020
     | 2,908 views

    Paul had begun to share the burden of his heart with the church in Thessalonica. Although absent from them, his care and love for the church remained strong. The remainder of this chapter continues to reveal Paul's heart for them.

    The Heart of God’s Man (Part 2) 1 Thessalonians 3: 1-13 (6-13) In our last study we began to consider the heart that Paul had for the church and the work that God had called him to. Just as a reminder, let’s quickly review Vv.1-5. I. The Investment of the Pastor (1-2a) A. His Forbearance (1a) – ...read more

    In the moment of conflict, his disciples deserted him. But Jesus wasn’t alone at the cross. John tells us of others who were there.

    - What Will You Do With Jesus? - Will You Desert Him? Introduction John 19:28-30 - the last moments of Jesus’ life. 28 After this, Jesus, knowing that all was now finished, said (to fulfill the Scripture), “I thirst.” 29 A jar full of sour wine stood there, so they put a sponge full of the sour ...read more

    Jacob's Ladder Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Apr 13, 2022
     | 4,964 views

    Jacob the selfish man, whose life without God led him to desperation, reached a point where he needed the Lord. Often that is when God breaks through to a person. God spoke to Jacob through a dream. We call that dream, Jacob’s ladder.

    As believers in Jesus Christ, we are called to be different. This difference can be seen very distinctly when we have a proper attitude in our giving to God. A generous spirit in giving is stark contrast in a selfish me first world. Jacob has an experience with God and he is changed. His name ...read more

     | 1,446 views

    Either Jesus is who He said He is – or He is a liar … He cannot be both. We come to church today (of all days) to celebrate where our hope comes from; but we must see/admit our need for a Savior.

    Resurrection Sunday (Luke, Part 13) Luke 24:1-12 Introduction / Recap - Last week, we discussed the arrest, trial, crucifixion, and burial; saw three things: - First, a natural response (sadness, etc.) to Jesus’ suffering is not enough - Second, the cross is the most vivid illustration of John ...read more

    The second epistle, Paul is offering words of counsel and comfort to the Thessalonians.

    Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling, away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition. - 2 Thessalonians 2:3 Paul cautions his new Thessalonian brothers and sisters not to be taken in by every rumor or report they may hear about ...read more

    The Secret Life Of Titus Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Apr 23, 2022
     | 3,285 views

    We might think that Titus had a boring life. He is never mentioned in the book of Acts. But when we piece together the life of Titus from Galatians, 2 Corinthians, 2 Timothy and the book of Titus we realize Titus had one of the most adventure filled ministries of anyone we find in the Bible.

    In the movie the Secret Life of Walter Mitty we see Walter who works at Life Magazine developing pictures. He is leading a very boring life. Because his life is so boring he daydreams of having exciting adventures where he is at the center of danger and excitement. But then back at work he finds ...read more

    Trying to follow the command of Jesus to love God and others without the power of the Spirit would be like trying to fill a bucket with water that has holes in the bottom of it. The bucket won't fill up.

    How important is the empty tomb to the Christian faith? If Jesus did not rise from the dead He is a complete fraud, and Christianity is of no value whatsoever to anyone.

    Dakota Community Church April 20, 2014 Easter Sunday 2014 1 Corinthians 15:12-19 12 Now if Christ is proclaimed as raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? 13 But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised. 14 And ...read more

    We think we know what we want. But everything is temporary. Only Jesus is the eternal life you're looking for and need.

When it was time to harvest the grapes the landowner sent three employees to pick up his share of the harvest. The tenants decided they didn't want to pay rent so they beat up ...read more

    The followers of Yeshua HaMashiach experienced confusion following His arrest,trial,crucifixion.How could disciples hiding in fear be about God's service? God has entered into our hardened human hearts, Yeshua brought evidence to his chosen.

    CONFUSION..... LOVE.....PEACE..... FAITH...... Over the years, my heart has been callous. I had Confusion, what I did not have was Love, Peace, and Faith. Maybe you have shared this kind of lifestyle with me. Maybe you had a similar experience. I do not feel that differently from other people. ...read more
