  • Recipe For Growth

    Contributed by Ezekiel Ette on Nov 16, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,983 views

    Peace with yourself, peace with neighbors and peace with the world is what we need to live as Christians. We fail to grow when we live our lives for others and become afraid of losing the affection and approval of those we think are important in our lives

    Imagine a Church with some problems, where some people are fighting to become leaders. Yet, despite their own problems, when they heard that the individual who helped to establish the church was in need, they all come together, contributed money to send to help the individual. The leader wrote back ...read more

     | 7,877 views

    William Gladstone said, "Selfishness is the greatest curse of the human race." Think about it; if everyone just looked out for #1 then no one would be satisfied; including #1. I can gain a lot by being selfish...except what's truly important.

    GOD IS UNSELFISH William Gladstone said, "Selfishness is the greatest curse of the human race." If you think about that there's much truth in it. If everyone just looked out for #1 then no one would be satisfied; including #1. There's a lot to be gained by being selfish except what matters most. ...read more

  • Born To Die, Born To Give Life

    Most nativity scenes portray a cute scene of a happy little family, & friendly visitors. That's the way we like to think of it, but it's hardly realistic. When we pause at the manger with this image, we maybe forget that this infant was born to die.

    Every year, at about this time, my dad has this tradition of getting out old home movies. A lot of families have a tradition of watching their favorite Christmas movie: “Home Alone,” or “Elf,” or “How the Grinch Stole Christmas,” or “It’s a Wonderful Life,” or what have you. But for my dad, he ...read more

  • Making God Rejoice Over Us!

     | 11,464 views

    Often we think that we need to offer God our Praise, Adoration, Applauds and Rejoice but the opposite is also true. God also rejoices over us when we choose to do the right things. Here is a detailed sermon to understand this principle.

    Zephaniah 3:17; Genesis 1:27; Isaiah 62:5; Psalms 103:8-10; Zephaniah 3:17 The LORD your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing. Some people have a different perspective about ...read more

    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,947 views

    This sermon looks at how we can make a positive difference in our communities for Christ. We look at things that we can do 1) Change our thinking (Confession and Repentance). 2) Meet the needs of others, and 3) Share the Gospel message.

    Becoming A Difference Maker It's easy to assume that because we’re just one person we can’t possibly make or affect any sort of real change or difference. In "It’s A Wonderful Life", Jimmy Stewart plays a man named George Bailey. George has big dreams, but instead he winds up ...read more

    The problem is, when we hear the word mountain, we immediately relate it to our own capabilities. And we begin to think literally about how much dynamite and explosives it would take to move "our heaven and earth" size of dilemma, or mountain!

    When the mountain won't move... Illus. By James Davis Some time ago a man was staying in a chalet in the Swiss Alps. Early one morning he heard what sounded like an earthquake. Hurriedly he got out of bed and ran to the front desk and asked if there was something wrong, if the mountains were ...read more

  • Undeserved - A God Who Loves Anyway

    Contributed by Roberta Karchner on Jun 12, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,183 views

    In the context of White Privilege, we sometimes think God loves us because we are lovable. Quite the opposite, God calls us when we aren't worthy or even very lovable. Responding to a God who brings laughter.

    Sermon: Undeserved • Sarah and Abraham were unworthy but God gave them Isaac (laughter) anyway. • We were undeserving, but Jesus died for us anyway. • If we know God loves us even if we are undeserving, how should we act towards others? I was speaking with a group of pastors this week about ...read more

    When we see things in the natural, we may think, “Nothing good can come from this.” But what happens, when we look at the same picture with “the eyes of faith? It's time to look beyond the facts.

    LOOK BEYOND THE FACTS! Genesis 1:1-3. (NKJV) "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. 3 Then God said, “Let there be light”; and ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,724 views

    God has plans for each of us and specific work that He has called us to do. This should be good news to us, but often we can feel overwhelmed when we are struggling to manage everything, we think we need to do.

    A Balanced Life We can make our own plans, but the LORD gives the right answer. People may be pure in their own eyes but the LORD examines their motives. Commit your actions to the LORD, and your plans will succeed. (Proverbs 16:1-3 NLT) God has plans for each of us and specific work that He has ...read more

  • Lessons From The Life Of Abraham (3-5)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 27, 2022
     | 1,643 views

    As we read our Bible we associate names with different people, such as: • Paul and Silas • Mark and John • Ananias and Sapphira • Moses and Aaron But when many of us think about Abraham, we immediately associate Abraham with Lot, his nepahew.

    Every man and woman that God placed in the scriptures is put there to teach us something. For example: • From the life of Abraham we can learn many valuable lessons on faith • From the life of Joseph we learn about the providence of God • From the life of Job we learn the importance of patience I ...read more

     | 6,264 views

    Many times we think our situation is beyond hope. We're tempted to accept the natural, inevitable outcome. But are we calculating without God? What if we served a God of miracles! Could things be different? A thousand times YES!

    DON’T SAY GOD CAN’T 2 Kings 6:25; 7:1-2 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: I’ve Heard Crazier Things 1. When King George VI was a boy, he and his older brother Edward were standing at the window of their palace looking out on the snow-covered city.

  • Zechariah’s Third Vision: City Without Walls) Series

     | 6,394 views

    The Jews in Jerusalem were thinking too small in their expectations of God's goodness. God's future for his people is so abundant that man-made walls could not contain the blessings. Jerusalem will be a "city without walls."

    We are becoming familiar with the book of Zechariah. For most Christians, it is a closed book. But God is opening this word to us because it is so relevant to world events today and to our personal journey in God. Today we enter Zechariah’s third vision recorded in chapter 2. The vision, as a ...read more

  • Speaking Words Of Faith Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,886 views

    Words can change how we think, act or dress; and even determine what we do with our life. This message looks at what the Bible has to say about taking control of our thoughts and speaking words of faith and words of life.

    Spoken words program your heart either to success or defeat. Words . . . carry faith or fear, and they produce after their kind. - Charles Capps(1) To get started this morning, I want to talk about the power of words; and a good example of words can be seen in the news media. You hear a lot of ...read more

  • The Power Of Forgivness Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 3, 2021
     | 2,990 views

    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

  • Take Me To Heaven Series

     | 4,020 views

    You cannot be disappointed by what God has in store for His people. The engine of your imagination cannot compete with what heaven actually is. You can never think it will be better than it actually is. Are you ready to enjoy just that?

    This morning I want to talk about a time when faith gives way to sight & where hope gives way to bliss. I want to show you the Bible’s view of life’s sequel for those who know Christ. I wanted to do a little follow-up to Easter & the resurrection with this short series. The Bible tells us ...read more
