NOTE: I preached this sermon for the first time a few years ago. I have tried to track down A SOURCE (even if it wasn’t’ the original source) for the illustrations used "BIG IDEA": Passages like Ephesians 2 and Luke 14 remind us that God freely and continually gives His Saving Grace to anyone ...read more

I Delight In Your Word Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Sep 26, 2022

When the wind is right, South Koreans launch “Bible Balloons” into North Korea, where the Bible is banned. They are chocked full of Bibles on SD cards, flash drives, and photos of the Bible’s pages.

Psalm 119 is the longest chapter in all of your Bibles. Now, the longest chapter in your Bible is devoted to how important the Bible is to our lives. Even though the Bible is really valuable, the words and wisdom of the Bible are objectionable to so many people. Banning the Bible The Bible is ...read more

Happiness Through Hunger Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 11, 2021

Men become desperate when they hunger and thirst, and all the energy of their being is concentrated on one goal-to satisfy their need. This sounds like misery, and it is, but it is in the spiritual realm another example of the paradoxical misery that leads to happiness.

A woman leaving church said to the pastor, "Thank you for that sermon, it was so helpful." The pastor said, "I hope it was not as helpful as the last one." "Why what do you mean," she asked. "Well," he said, "that last sermon lasted you three ...read more

Part 2 Of The Wedding Of Cana Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 25, 2021

Jesus is glorified by being true to His nature. He is a caring, loving Savior who will do what He can in any situation to add to the joy of life.

VERSE5 Mary is satisfied Jesus will do what is best and so submits to Him and tells the servants to do the same. She understands his need to time things right and is content to leave him in control of the decision. She is no control freak who has to have it her way. She can let go and let God. ...read more

Thy Word I Have Hidden In My Heart Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Sep 13, 2022

A Place At The Table

Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 11, 2025

God turned David’s denied dream into Christ’s eternal kingdom, inviting every sinner to leave Lo-Debar and feast forever at His table of grace.

Opening: The Weight Warriors Carry Have you ever sat across the table from a war veteran and really listened—listened until the silence said more than the words? I grew up with those stories.

Supper Time

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 8, 2025

God’s feast is ready; the call is now—accept His grace, wear His robe, and take your seat at the table.

I grew up one of seven children. In a house that full, noise was normal—laughing, teasing, fussing, the thud of feet running in and out the back door. But no matter how wild the day got, there was one sound that could stop everything in an instant. It wasn’t thunder. It wasn’t Dad’s whistle. It ...read more

His messianic prophecies are clearer and more explicit than those of any other Old Testament book. They ...read more
