    Contributed by Dean Courtier on Sep 4, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,195 views

    Throughout His earthly ministry, Jesus consistently defied expectations. Whether it was the religious leaders of the day, the multitudes, or even His own disciples, Jesus was always more than people anticipated.

    The Unexpected Jesus (Sermon 2) Defying Expectations Introduction Today, I want to take you on a journey to explore a profound and often surprising aspect of our Saviour—what I like to call "The Unexpected Jesus." Throughout His earthly ministry, Jesus consistently defied expectations. ...read more

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Sep 17, 2024
     | 1,498 views

    Elijah is one of the most well-known people in the Bible. This message speaks about the very early part of his ministry. Oh that the LORD would raise up more Elijahs these days!

    Introduction: Elijah, the prophet. He was and is one of the most well-known men in the Bible. He seemed to come out of nowhere, and eventually was one of only two people (so far) to go to Heaven but never died! But like most people, Elijah had a lot to endure before he began his ministry. ...read more

    Perspectives Of A Tentmaker

    Contributed by Ed Lu on Dec 17, 2024
     | 430 views

    Just as Paul brings a perspective as God’s instrument in both his occupation and ministry, similarly we have a calling to live out our purpose for the people we are responsible for.

    Perspectives of a Tentmaker 1 Timothy 6:1-10 What kind of bosses do you work for? What type of a boss do your employees think about you? As for me, I had many. One of them has a mouth as foul as a sewer. But if you get to know him, his heart is as tender as a newborn’s skin. The one ...read more

    Transition And Testimony (Matthew 11:1-30)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 14, 2025
     | 389 views

    Our commentary on Matthew continues with Jesus' testimony about the ministry of John the Baptist and the promise of judgment upon the unbelieving cities who witnessed HIs work yet did not repent.

    Matthew 11 begins with what is referred to as a "transitional" passage (v.1). While the disciples were going around the countryside doing the work that Jesus had commissioned, He continued to preach in the cities in Galilee. Verses 2-3 describe how John the Baptist had been thrown into ...read more

    BREAKING THE BARRIER OF CLOSED DOORS By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Revelation 3:8 Key Verse:  "I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name." - ...read more

    Unlocking Supernatural Abilities With God's Anointing SermonCentral

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,172 views

    God's anointing empowers us to transcend our natural abilities and perform supernatural feats. To advance in life and ministry, we need a continuous flow of fresh anointing from the Holy Spirit.

    According to the Bible, every believer who is born again and filled with the Holy Spirit has the anointing of God in their life. However, it is our responsibility to cultivate and increase this anointing. Some individuals walk in a greater level of anointing than others, and this is determined by ...read more

     | 3,730 views

    A poor man brought the first fruits of his land in a sack during famine for Elisha, but God multiplied that to feed 100 men and probably more. This miracle shows the abundance of God. God is no man’s debtor. Lovely Story.

    ELISHA'S MINISTRY - GOD’S ABUNDANCE IS MAN’S SUFFICIENCY 2 Kings 4:42-44 SERIES – MESSAGES ON ELISHA – HIS LIFE AND MINISTRY Number 13 [1].

    Retells the story of the Samaritan Woman with a stress on the advantages of God’s truth vs. Man’s

    Over the past couple of weeks we’ve discussed the conflict between the world and God regarding truth. The world accepts truth only with the idea of its being flexible and subject to opinion or one’s point of view. The world adamantly rejects the very idea of "absolute truth" and ends up in moral ...read more

    Paul reminds Titus of his mission on Crete. He was to solidify a witness for Jesus Christ by appointing leaders. All church leaders are to meet the standards set forth here & guide others to greater maturity in their relationship with Christ.

    TITUS 1: 5-9 THE QUALIFICATIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF PASTORS Paul here reminds Titus of his mission or what he would have him accomplish while in Crete.

    God Doesn't Have A Drive-Thru Window.

     | 11,161 views

    God is not a fast food resteraunt with a drive-thru. We don't get our salvation OUR way, but rather, we take it God's way, or we just DON'T get it.

    Launching Text: Jeremiah 18:1-6 We often take for granted the convenience of a drive-thru at McDonalds, right up until, for whatever reason, we have to park the car and go inside the store to get our low-quality burgers and fries. At this point we begin to complain. Giving up control is difficult ...read more

    Too many people are slaves to their past mistakes.

    INTRODUCTION In my opinion, one of the greatest televisions shows ever produced was the Andy Griffith show. I’m talking about the old black-and-white episodes when Ron Howard played a young Opie. One of my favorite episodes was “The Sermon for Today.” Here’s a question for you TV trivia buffs. ...read more

    Practising Discipleship Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 1, 2017
     | 9,150 views

    Christians are commanded to make disciples. The process of discipleship includes: going; baptising; teaching. The responsibility devolves upon each follower of the Christ.

    “It happened that while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul passed through the inland country and came to Ephesus. There he found some disciples. And he said to them, ‘Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?’ And they said, ‘No, we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.’ And he ...read more

    Real Christianity: Clothing, Buildings, Money, & Extravagance

     | 1,759 views

    There is a lot of stuff out there claiming to be Christian, when it's not really Christian. It's a difficult situation for any real Christ follower. On one side you have a culture and society growing progressively more hostile toward Christian values.

    The Birth Of A Church Series

     | 3,141 views

    I don’t know what you think of when you think of evangelism, but evangelism is reason powered by the Holy Spirit. Paul would consistently use the persuasive powers of reason as he talked to people about becoming a follower of Jesus Christ.

    We begin a new series today. Our church celebrates its 125th year anniversary. We have some things planned for later this year. We also begin a new book: 1 Corinthians. Many of you may think it odd to begin journey of a book of the Bible and then focus on Acts. Yet, Luke tells us the beginnings of ...read more
