     | 2,095 views

    A sermon teaching on embracing the mysteries of our faith and trusting that God has the answers.

    Mystery Unraveled Ephesians Series CCCAG, March 6, 2022 Scripture: Ephesians 3:1-13 I’ve always been a bit fascinated by magic. Now I’m not talking about Harry Potter, casting spells, or witchcraft. I’m talking about illusion, magic tricks, Penn and Teller or David Copperfield type of magic. ...read more

    Weary Of Waiting On The Lord?

    Have you ever asked or trusted the Lord for something; and you fully expected He would give it to you. But instead, what response you receive from the Lord is to be patient?

    Have you ever asked or trusted the Lord for something; and you fully expected He would give it to you. But instead, what response you receive from the Lord is to be patient? Truth is, you don’t want to patient for the Lord to bless or deliver you, or at least not patient for long duration of ...read more

    "he Ascended Into Heaven"

    Contributed by Robert Walderman on Sep 21, 2020
     | 3,222 views

    Of all the aspects of Christ’s life, his birth, life, death and resurrection, the ascension gets little attention. This is unfortunate because it is something of the ‘Ticker-tape’ parade in God’s plan and yet few show up to applaud.

    If you are a sports fan you love the game. You follow your team through the season, whether baseball or football, through the hard fought wins and crushing defeats. The excitement increase should your team make the playoffs. Each game now carries greater importance. In fact, in football loose and ...read more

    The New Commandment Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jan 22, 2022
    based on 5 ratings
     | 10,189 views

    The New Testament repeatedly tells us to "love one another," but why bother? Why do I constantly need to be reminded?

    A woman once told of her experience as a Church secretary. When she answered the phone she’d say, “Jesus loves you, Sharon speaking. How may I help you?” But one day she got distracted because she was talking to others in the office. When the phone rang she answered: “Sharon loves you, Jesus ...read more

    What Is Our Purpose? Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 5, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 10,547 views

    If we do not know the Lord’s purpose as a church, then we can’t plan for success; and thus, we will see no results in reaching the world for Jesus Christ. This passage shows the five purposes (five E-words) designed for every church.

    This morning, I want us to think about our purpose. The word “purpose” is defined as, “the reason for which something exists or is done,” and “an intended or desired result.”(1) Based on the definition of the word “purpose,” we can see how we need to consider the reason why we do certain things, ...read more

    Fellowship On Purpose Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 8,219 views

    Can we effectively worship the Lord by ourselves at home, on the golf course, or on a hiking trail in the forest? Why do we need to go to church? Is there something in it for us? Yes, there is something in it for each of us!

    We’re going to begin discussing the five purposes of the church by first looking at what the Bible says about fellowship. Dictionary.com defines fellowship as, “friendly relationship,” “companionship,” and “communion, as between members of the same church.”(1) The Lord wants us all to have close ...read more

    Worship On Purpose Series

     | 7,048 views

    Worship is so much more than singing a song, the style of music, or our even own preferences; it’s about our heart-attitude before God. There are many elements to worship; but they all serve to honor and glorify God and edify others.

    This morning, we’re going to continue our series on the five purposes of the church by looking at worship. In the song “The Heart of Worship,” Matt Redman sings, “I’ll bring You more than a song, for a song in itself is not what You have required. You search much deeper within, through the way ...read more

    Managing Money God's Way: Sharing Series

    Contributed by Scott Bayles on Mar 24, 2022
     | 3,755 views

    Money plays a big role in our lives, so it shouldn't surprise us that the Bible has a lot to say about it. In this sermon, we discover that sharing our money should be purposeful, pleasant, and productive.

    Managing Money God’s Way: Sharing Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 10/9/16 Most of us have probably heard the saying, “Money talks.” Someone once said, “If money talks, all it ever says to me is good-bye!” I heard a story recently though about some talking money. A well-worn ...read more

    Seventh Commandment (8 Of 12)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 14, 2022
     | 1,021 views

    I would like to remind you again of the importance of considering why God gave these ten commandments to Israel.

    Why? God gave them to Israel before they entered the promised land as they were forming a new nation. He knew that the people needed laws to govern the people by. Every person could not just do as he pleased, when he pleased, to whomever he pleased. Today we would like to deal with the seventh ...read more

    We’ve come “Out of Egypt” now into the wilderness. The deliverance of Israel from Egypt is a picture of our salvation. We were slaves, in bondage to sin, the toughest master you’ll ever serve. Now they are at the edge of the Promised Land.

    Joshua 1:1-13 INTRO: We’ve come “Out of Egypt” now into the wilderness. The deliverance of Israel from Egypt is a picture of our salvation.

    Ephesians 4

    THE BODY OF CHRIST (EPHESIANS 4) I accepted Christ when I was 17 in a mid-size church. Our church did not have a pastor since the last one left a few years ago before I accepted Christ. I was baptized by a former pastor. In the third year of my faith the church hired a pastor who traveled from ...read more

    When A Miracle Makes You Mad Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 12, 2021
     | 3,633 views

    Today, I want to tell the story… the story of three people – Jesus, the miracle-worker, the religious leaders, and a diseased man. And you’ll see two emotional reactions for us and we’ll see two life lessons. Along with way, I’ll even share with you one of Grimm’s fairy tales.

    When people talk about miracles, they typically think of healing miracles. One day the tumor is there; the next day, it’s no longer. Someone prays for a blind man and he regains his sight. Miracles are supernatural events that offer hope and healing to people in need. We started a series on ...read more

    Protecting The Unity Of The Church

    Contributed by Greg Warren on Jun 16, 2021
     | 5,646 views

    The importance of protecting the unity of the church and practical principles and steps for doing so.

    We'd like to think that the church is immune to conflict and disagreement. After all, we're all Christians here. Right? Well, don't be naive. Hopefully, we're all striving to be like Christ. But we're also humans who sometimes fall short. We say things or react before we ...read more

    When Things Look Hopeless Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Feb 26, 2025
     | 1,262 views

    We frequently look in other directions to try to see spiritual transformation for our churches. Our only hope is a move of the Spirit, who can bring the dead to life.

    DRY BONES: There are moments that seem hopeless. - Ezekiel 37:1-3a. - The immediate context here is the life of Israel. Things had become hopeless for them. - Their disobedience had led them to a place of despair and defeat. As they looked at their ability to stand up to their enemies, the army ...read more

    16. The Kingdom Parables – The Fourth – The Leaven – Part 3 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 8, 2025
     | 157 views

    We look into the church at Thyatira in more detail to see how wicked it really was. That church parallels the Parable of the Leaven. It also represents the period of Church History with the development of the Roman Catholic Church that grew out of the Pergamum church.

    16. THE KINGDOM PARABLES – THE FOURTH – THE LEAVEN – Part 3 NOW WHERE IS THIS PARABLE LEADING US? We have seen in the first three parables of the kingdom that each parable associates itself with one of the churches of Asia Minor to whom John wrote, and also, that each parable associates with ...read more
