     | 11,730 views

    To press into the spiritual realm means we strive to be mature in Christ and in how we view things in life. It means we are in tune with God and His agenda for our lives and for the Kingdom of Heaven. It means we push through the tough times of life and in our faith and we don’t quit.

    Theme: ¾ Immerse We need to immerse ourselves in a new way of living. We need to immerse ourselves into the spiritual dimension of life and see things we have never seen before. We need to do this individually and corporately as a family unit. Series 3: Press In To press into the spiritual realm ...read more

    What does it mean that Jesus is King of Kings and Lord of Lords? It's not just a title. It's a powerful description of Who Jesus is and what He means to us.

    Colossians: Household Rules Series

     | 585 views

    This passage contains the dreaded "S" word, submit. But what did that mean 2000 years ago in Colossa and what does it mean for us today.

    It was a struggle; I was thinking that this week I would preach from Colossians 4:5–6 Live wisely among those who are not believers, and make the most of every opportunity. Let your conversation be gracious and attractive so that you will have the right response for everyone. I thought that I would ...read more

    Legitimate Use Of Rituals Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Apr 29, 2024
     | 917 views

    For a person to be declared righteous by God, rituals/sacraments are unnecessary. Justification is by faith alone. So, what is the value of rituals like water baptism and the Lord's Supper? Using Romans 4:11, this message seeks to answer that question.

    Intro Last week we expounded Romans 4:9-12. There Paul used Abraham’s experience to prove circumcision is not a prerequisite for justification. In that study, we did not have time to talk about why God gave Abraham the rite of circumcision. If it is of no value for justification, then what is its ...read more

    Living under the influence of the Holy Spirit means living as light.

    In 2013, a South Dakota man received his 16th DUI conviction. That means he was found guilty 16 times of driving a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol—the first conviction was way back in 1977.

    How Do I Take Up My Cross?

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Mar 28, 2009
    based on 14 ratings
     | 12,237 views

    This sermon looks at both what it means, and also what it does not mean, for us to take up our cross for Jesus.

    Jesus said to his disciples and to the crowd following him, “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me” (8:34). It’s hard for us to hear those words in the same way that those following Jesus heard it. The context is that Peter has just recognised that ...read more

    considers what playing favorites means and how the church can fall into this today and what it means when we do.

    Don’t Play Favorites James 2:1-13 slide How many of you watched the Blackhawks win the Stanley cup? It was pretty amazing and those from Chicago were excited.

    Sex is a bridge between husband and wife, and between generations. That means they must not be abused in the pursuit of the secondary meaning of giving pleasure.

    Every denomination has its own take on sacrament, and some deny that there are any sacraments, even Baptism, that are normally required for salvation. But Scripture helps us solve the problem.

    While John the Baptist offered forgiveness through baptism, Jesus offers us freedom from the power of sin and the continual presence of God through the Holy Spirit.

    Ever had a phone that's so old it barely works? You know, the kind that freezes every time you try to open an app? And then one day, you get an upgrade - a brand new phone that works perfectly.
