    Sleeping Through A Garden Moment

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Oct 18, 2022
     | 1,128 views

    This is the story of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane. No doubt we have all heard this story preached, read it ourselves, or seen movies regarding the Crucifixion of Christ. He was the perfect Son, in perfect union, with the perfect Father.

    Was Jesus attempting to escape the performance of his undertaking? Jesus was communicating his actual sentiments however he did not deny or oppose God's will. He reaffirmed his desire to do what God needed him to do. His petition features the awful enduring he needed to suffer, and desolation ...read more

    The Prayer Of Gethsemane Series

    Contributed by Chris Anderson on Mar 10, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,020 views

    Jesus clearly knew God’s will, and yet he had intense angst and the deep feeling of despair that came from actually obeying God’s will. This sermon is intended to equip you for those moments where DOING God’s will, is really really hard.

    If you’ve been around Christian circles for any length of time, there is a considerable amount of frustration in trying to determine God’s will. For some, it’s because we love the Lord and want to please him, so we want to make sure we’re making right choices that would honor him. But for others, ...read more

    Standing By

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Mar 19, 2023
     | 1,025 views

    Can you stand by, doing nothing, when someone needs only your presence, not your action or your words or even your understnding?

    One of the hardest things in the world to do is - to do nothing. Jesus asked his three closest friends, disciples Peter, James and John, to do just that. Just to stay awake with him. Could you do that? With nothing to busy your hands with, no task to accomplish, nothing to read or plan or analyze ...read more

    A look into the palms of Jesus, and what really took place in the garden of Gethsemane. This message was a big blessing to our church! Hope it blesses you!

    On Easter, we always talk about the Garden tomb. But there are three other gardens in Scripture, and all four of them are important in the Great Big Story of God's redemption.

    Preparing For Easter: An Outline For A Message From The Song, "Where He Leads Me”

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Apr 22, 2023
     | 876 views

    Great hymns can be a source of inspiration for sermons. The song, "Where He Leads Me", is appropriate not only as an invitation song but also as a guide through the Easter season. To the best of my knowledge, the song is in the public domain and has no current copyright.

    Introduction: The song, “Where He Leads Me”, is often sung as an invitation song. Take a closer look at the lyrics, though, and every verse could be an illustration or picture of the Easter season! Here are the verses for “Where He Leads Me” with outline material to follow: 1 I can hear my Savior ...read more

    Time To Engage: "Going Further In”

    Contributed by Dennis Lee on Mar 23, 2025

     | 341 views

    There is three times Jesus went further into the Garden of Gethsemane until He received the Father’s perspective, guidance, strength, and peace. And if we want the same, we need to go further in with Jesus. We’ll also look at the two types of Christians this story reveals.

    Time to Engage “Going Further In” Matthew 26:36-46 On our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blblLUL6ioQ Today, I’d like to use this message as a transition from our last or third word in our vision, “Engage,” to the fourth word, “Elevate.” And in our next series we’ll be looking ...read more

    Go! And Be Transformed Through Prayer Series

    Contributed by Dean Courtier on Feb 20, 2025

     | 631 views

    Prayer is one of the greatest privileges we have as believers. It is our direct communication with God, our means of expressing our dependence on Him, and the way through which we align our hearts with His will.

    Go! And Be Transformed Through Prayer Introduction C.S. Lewis once said, “I pray because I can't help myself. I pray because I'm helpless. I pray because the need flows out of me all the time, waking and sleeping. It doesn't change God. It changes me.” Prayer is one of the greatest ...read more
