    David The Warrior Series

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Sep 21, 2024
     | 1,089 views

    David's experience as a warrior is unparalleled. There is a huge amount we can learn from him when it comes to fighting battles. The biggest lesson of all is that the decisive factor in a battle is God being with us.

    INTRODUCTION Today we’re returning to our series on ‘Learning from David’ and looking at the subject of ‘David the warrior.’ I thought we’d look at this subject this way. We’ll start by thinking about David and consider three questions. Did David fight? Why did he fight? And how did he fight? ...read more

    Sermon # 14 - Stay United, Prayerful And Obedient Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 3, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 794 views

    Jonah’s disobedience brought untold troubles on all the crew aboard that ship. The church too must be wary of those who are divisive and must strive hard to maintain unity, integrity continuing in prayer and being obedient to God.

    We read in Jonah 1:11, Then they said to him, "What shall we do to you, that the sea may be calm to us?" For the sea was raging and growing more tempestuous. (AFV) The events that preceded this verse were that the ship on which Jonah voyaged was faced with a severe tempest. The mariners ...read more

    Sermon # 19 - God Gives Us Hope Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 23, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,053 views

    As Jonah was thrown into the sea it seemed all was over, but God had prepared a big fish to keep Jonah safe. In all those seemingly hopeless times, God is in control and let’s keep in mind that God’s grace and His justice always go hand in hand.

    We read in Jonah 1:15, “And they lifted Jonah up and threw him out into the sea; and the sea ceased from its raging.” (AFV) As we continue our studies on the life of Jonah and its relevance to the church, many have been blessed and we thank God for these good testimonies. God instructed Jonah to ...read more

    JOSHUA 3:1 Early in the morning Joshua and all the Israelites set out from Shittim and went to the Jordan, where they camped before crossing over.

    CROSSING OVER Can you think of a day that you waited for with great anticipation? Christmas morning? A Family Vacation? Your Wedding Day?

     | 5,890 views

    Paul had just endured 3 years of imprisonment without trial, a two-week storm in a ship and then shipwreck, and having escaped, was bitten on the hand by a viper. What else could happen? It's time for Jesus to show up -- and He does, in a big way!

    DON’T GIVE OUT, DON’T GIVE UP, DON’T GIVE IN! Acts 28:1-10 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A man went to visit a psychiatrist one day. When the Dr. came in, he asked, "What can I do for you today? What seems to be the problem?" 2. "I have a problem. Every single time I go to the ...read more

    Paul’s Charge To The Ephesian Elders Series

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Oct 14, 2023
     | 2,930 views

    Paul sees the elders of the Ephesian church for the last time. He gives them a charge: 'Be on guard for yourselves and for all the flock.' It's a message the church needs to hear today.

    Today’s passage has a lot to tell us about the job of a minister or pastor or elder. Maybe you think, ‘I’m not a minister or pastor or elder. This doesn’t apply to me’! But all of us have responsibilities towards other people. This passage has something to say to all of us. Before I get ...read more

    Poor In Spirit (All Saints Sunday)

    Jesus spoke to the Disciples, and to the crowd, but He also speaks to us. He spoke to the 'poor in spirit' and explained that they were blessed. But, who and what are the poor in spirit? This sermon attempted to answer that question.

    Opening and Introduction In today's Gospel lesson, we heard the introduction to the most famous sermon that Jesus delivered, the Sermon on the Mount. 1. Setting the Stage When we align all four of the Gospels, we see that a lot has already happened with His ministry. He’s been baptized by ...read more

    Just because things don’t work out exactly like we planned, doesn’t mean that God’s not at work in our lives. We must persevere, because "It ain't over until God says it's over!"

    IT AIN’T OVER…UNTIL GOD SAYS…IT’S OVER Rom. 8:28 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: “When Everything Goes Wrong” 1.

    If you have a personal relationship with the Lord then you are promised a home in heaven, you will know the way to get there, have a relationship with the Father, and be empowered to do anything asked for in His name and according to His will.

    INTRODUCTION & BACKGROUND OF THE PASSAGE: We live in a pluralistic society and thus presenting the uniqueness of Christ is a great challenge. Some see Jesus as a great teacher.

     | 1,615 views

    Words have the power to evoke great emotions and passions in our lives. When Jesus said, I am the way, truth, and life no one comes unto the Father except by Me, what do these words mean to you? Are you born again, or have you rejected your only way into heaven?

    Sermon # 30 - The Blessings Of Obedience Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 10, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,340 views

    Obedience to God and His word has rewards, and disobedience also has its consequences. The experiences of some from the bible will help us learn how we too can be recipients of God’s blessings in our lives.

    We read in Genesis 22:18, “Every nation on the earth will be blessed through your descendants. I will do this because you obeyed me." (ERV) We also read in Genesis 3:14, “So the LORD God said to the snake, "Because you have done this, you are cursed more than all the wild or domestic ...read more

    Must The Stones Cry Out?

    based on 1 rating
     | 10,127 views

    Jesus said the stones would cry out if His disciples didn't praise Him. We’re looking at why praise had to rise, what kind of praise they offered, the opposition to His praise, and how all this effects us.

    MUST THE STONES CRY OUT? Lk. 19:35-40 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Coming Up Short 1. A robber went into a convenience store. He picked up a pack of gum and approached the cashier. He handed the gum & a $20 bill to the cashier. The cashier opened the cash register & turned to scan the gum. As ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 5, 2023
     | 1,589 views

    Psalm 129 continues with this third message looking at how Israel has faced persecution. The final end for the nation is glorious as the Lord’s heritage is Israel, and Jerusalem is the city of the Great King. This Psalm is very Jewish and after the long years of persecution, blessing will come.

    THE SONGS OF ASCENT – PART 13 – PSALM 129 – ISRAEL IS THE MOST PERSECUTED NATION IN HISTORY YET THE LORD IS RIGHTEOUS – PART THREE OF THREE Psalm 129 focuses on the persecution endured by Israel and in the two previous parts we looked into some of this.
