Easter - 2020

Contributed by Steve Woods (Pastor Woody) on Apr 22, 2020

Easter is one of our most holy of celebrations as a Christian. This is the day our Lord, defeated the world and proved He was, beyond the shadow of doubt, truly... the Son of God!

I’ve always talked about how difficult it sometimes is to write something for everyone each week. We’ve all heard God’s words and, hopefully, have listened intently and realized the Love He has for us and the sacrifice His Son made to free us from ourselves. This week, my task was not all that ...read more

Unanswered Prayer (Part 1) Series

Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Feb 28, 2023

God invites us to ask Him, and we will receive (Mat 7:7). But why does He sometimes not answer our prayers? This sermon series explains several possibilities for why God does not grant our prayers.

Three weeks ago, we studied how God invites us to ask Him. Therefore, do not hesitate to ask for something or express our wishes to God. The Lord Jesus said, "Ask, and it will be given to you." (Matthew 7:7). If so, why are there prayers that God does not answer? You may have ...read more

The Prayer Of Gethsemane Series

Contributed by Chris Anderson on Mar 10, 2023

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

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

The Dark Night Of The Soul Series

Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Apr 1, 2022

In this “Dark Night of the Soul” we see the relationship between prayer and action through three things: Through 1) His Sorrow Matthew 26:36–38), 2) His Supplication (Matthew 26:39–45a), and 3) His Strength (Matthew 26:45b-46).

Humble Yourself Series

Contributed by Kamalanathan Francis on Feb 20, 2021

Humble life is part of a disciple, a command from the Lord himself. A proud heart is an abomination to the Lord, honour comes after humility.

There is a reward to anyone who humbles before God. Peter insists that we humble in the hand of God and not before humans. Christian Scholar and author C. S. Lewis, said, "a proud man is always looking down on things and people;" As a result, such people lose the opportunity to serve ...read more

The Savior In Gethsemane

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 6, 2021

Before Jesus suffered great physical pain on the cross, He had to suffer great mental pain in the Garden of Gethsemane, and this too was part of what He paid for our salvation.

A salesman said to me, “We all know you do not get something good for nothing.” It turned out to be very true in regard to what he was selling. I began to think about this in relationship to the Gospel and concluded that it is both true and false. Salvation by grace through faith is the greatest ...read more
