The Power Of Forgivness Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 3, 2021

One of the things I love about this prayer is that it doesn’t pretend there aren’t real problems around us. It confronts the real needs in the world – pain and hunger. The Lord’s Prayer is designed to change our priorities and to reverse our thinking.

This is the fourth message for us to look at the Lord’s Prayer. And it’s the richest single source in the entire Bible of information on how to pray. One story stands out about the importance of the Lord’s Prayer in the life of a Christian is from a gentleman who attends at NRH, Mike O’Neil. Mike ...read more

The Unjust Steward

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 21, 2021

We have heard it said many times, in many places, by many people, “DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU.”

This would be a great place to live if everyone lived by this Bible principle. The fact is, many among us would be irate, to say the least, if others treated us the way we treat others.

Unhindered Forgiveness

Contributed by Kory Labbe on May 6, 2023

Forgiveness is one of the basic principles of the faith and yeah it is a discipline that is one of the hardest for us to master. Too often forgiveness has been misunderstood and therefore out of grasp of us. Unhindered forgiveness is the first step to radical healing in our lives.

Right before Jesus was arrested in John 16, Jesus is trying to prepare his disciples for what is about to come. Verse 32: 32 But the time is coming—indeed ...read more

Sermon # 36 - Learning To Forgive Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 20, 2024

Jonah was happy to receive God’s forgiveness for his disobedience, but was unhappy when God did the same for the people of Nineveh who repented of their sins. Jesus paid with his life for our forgiveness, and God expects us to extend this same forgiveness to those who wrong us in any way.

For our meditation we will study Jonah 4:1, “Jonah was very unhappy about this and became angry.” (GNB) When the prophet Jonah preached to the people in the city of Nineveh, they took his words seriously, repented, and had a change of heart. God relented from punishing the people of Nineveh, and ...read more

Forgive Us Our Debts As...

Contributed by Michael Blitz on Oct 27, 2024

This Morning we look at Jesus teaching about the importance of forgiving others as we are forgiven.
