The Battle Within

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Apr 11, 2021

Perhaps once or twice in a century a truly titanic battle occurs in which the history of earth hangs in the balance. The D-Day invasion might be one. Both armies had invested many thousands of their men, millions of dollars worth of equipment and their very best modern strategies. It was a ...read more

Risk Takers Series

Contributed by Tim Smith on Feb 19, 2012

I Quit Making Excuses Series

Contributed by Herbert Cooper on Sep 20, 2011

One thing that I’m convinced of, is that I haven’t arrived yet. I haven’t accomplished all that God has for me; And you haven’t either. The fact that we’re still alive means God has more for us.

1. God has more for your life Phil 3:12 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. (NIV) (Paul said, I’m not there yet but I’m pressing forward because God has more for me) ...read more

The Blame Game

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jan 26, 2011

We’re good at being blame-shifters. We blame fast food restaurants for making us fat. We blame tobacco companies for giving us cancer. But are we better off because of it? Let’s see what playing the blame game really accomplishes for us?

Doing It Right Series

The Lukewarm Church Of Laodecia

Contributed by Rev. Matthew Parker on Nov 17, 2019

Lukewarmness is like a dud bomb. Accomplishes not a thing. Jesus Christ prefers us to be passionately against God or, much better, passionately for God. And He disciplines us because He loves us so very much. Thanks to William Barclay's insights which are reflected throughout this message.
