Hell-O-Ween

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Oct 25, 2019

Where did Halloween come from? What are Christians to do with it? Is it innocent fun? Does it take us down a dangerous path?

Sermon On Demons

Contributed by William Meakin on Apr 9, 2021

A demon is identified as a supernatural being, largely considered evil, which can possess humans and remove them from the path of righteousness.

Ip Man, the Chinese martial artist, and grandmaster of the martial art Wing Chun, once remarked: “We all have inner demons to fight, we call these demons, fear and hatred and anger. If you do not conquer them, then a life of one hundred years is a tragedy. If you do, then a life of a single day can ...read more

The Coming Judgment Series

Contributed by Doug Fannon on Apr 12, 2021

Final sermon in the series: "the Signs of the Times." What is the evidence of your salvation? All Scripture quotes are from the NASB.

We began this series at the first of the year. The setting was on the Mount of Olives, overlooking Jerusalem. The disciples were showing off the magnificent Temple to Jesus and Jesus told them that a time was coming when “not one stone will be left upon another.” The Disciples asked what will ...read more

Volunteers Are Awesome: They Change The World

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 27, 2021

Thank God for volunteers. They change the world. I’m completely serious right now. God bless volunteers. What would we do without them? Well, I imagine we’d do a lot less.

Thank God for volunteers. They change the world. I’m completely serious right now. God bless volunteers. What would we do without them? Well, I imagine we’d do a lot less. I’ve often wondered at what I could do in the world with 10 good men. Or 10 good women. Imagine what a church can do with 10 ...read more

Happy Surprise At The Judgment

Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 27, 2021

Most think that when they stand before God in Judgment, it won't be pleasant, because they know their faults, weaknesses, & selfish. What if instead, we receive from God a ringing commendation and a smile of approval?

HAPPY SURPRISE AT THE JUDGMENT Mt. 25:34-40 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: WRONG IMPRESSIONS 1. Laurie Navin, in Reader’s Digest, told how her beloved family dog “Lucky” passed away. She was trying to explain what had happened to her four-year old son Ian, in terms he might could understand. 2. She ...read more

Therefore, Do Not Be Anxious!

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Feb 11, 2021

Jesus isn't simply telling us not to be anxious. He's calling us to have a completely different attitude towards material possessions and material needs from the rich fool; to be confident in God and in that confidence, to be rich towards God and others.

‘Do not be anxious.’ That’s what Jesus told his disciples. If only! we might think. Can we banish anxiety from our hearts simply because Jesus tells us to? We’re in a series in Luke, following Jesus and his disciples on their journey from Galilee down to Jerusalem. Their journey starts in Luke ...read more

Serving As Good Soldiers Of Jesus Christ

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 9, 2021

Thankfully Jesus lives, and we are his people. There is no one else.

Recently I went to see the movie Darkest Hour with my dad at the theaters. A stunning film, and for Christmas this year I got a DVD copy of Dunkirk. Both of these stories revolve around the decisions and speeches of the great leader Winston Churchill during the dark days of World War II. A few ...read more

God Is Love: That's Why He Created Hell

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Aug 18, 2021

This is a revision of a sermon I posted over a year ago on another website. The subject matter is more timely than ever considering the rapid descent into evil and chaos we have witnessed recently. Come quickly, Lord Jesus.

There are some things that are getting more hard to find as the days draw nearer to the LORD'S return, such as ethical politicians, intelligent leftists, happy liberals, competent leadership, and sound Biblical preaching on the reality and horror of a literal, real place called hell. Now ...read more

Faith And Good Deeds Series

Contributed by Brady Boyd on Jun 1, 2020

James seems to be contradicting Paul, who taught that salvation was by faith and not by works. Martin Luther even called the book of James, a “Strawy Epistle.” James and Paul were not at odds, though.

James 2 Faith and Good Deeds June 7, 2020 James 2:14-17, 26 NIV What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? 15 Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; ...read more

Hell Series

Contributed by Vic Folkert on Jun 11, 2020

What is hell? a) punishment, b) separation from God, c) ruled by evil. Why would God send people to hell? What should we respond to the reality of hell?

HELL—Matthew 25:31-46 Last week, we talked about heaven, and this week, we talk about hell. Why talk about hell? It is not something we talk about with strangers, or even casual acquaintances. Some people—even people we know well—might consider it taboo, worse than talking about politics or ...read more

The Cat's In The Cradle - Father's Day 2020

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jun 21, 2020

Many of us, as Christians, grow up with a "blind spot" just like the Dad in "The Cat's In The Cradle" song. Are we failing to build spiritual relationships just as the Dad in the song failed to build a real Father-Son relationship?

The Cat’s In The Cradle Today we will be reading from 1 Thessalonians 5:1-11 Today is Father’s Day. To me it is a confusing day but at the same time it makes sense. It makes sense because a Biblical father is what God planed for the human family. A father who provides for the needs of the ...read more

Contributed by Michael Deutsch on Jul 4, 2020

Looking at how we grasp divine moments from God.

Your Moment Matthew 25:31-46 July 5, 2020 Last week we were talking about grabbing hold of those moments in life which are transformative. That’s a tall order! I know that! That’s kind of what makes messages like this filled with so much fun and anxiety. It’s being alert to when God is ...read more

Will Christians Go Through The Tribulation Period? (Xi) Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Mar 22, 2021

Message explores the readiness for Christ's coming called for in the Olivet Discourse. Three parables give insight on specific aspects of being prepared. The Judgment of the Sheep and Goats is also examined closely.

Biblical Readiness for the Rapture: Intro In this message we continue to learn from the Olivet Discourse lesson about the coming of the Lord and how we are to respond to it.
