What Do You Do When God Says No? Series

Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Sep 5, 2016

God often says "no" to his children. He said no to Paul; no to Moses regarding Miriam's leprosy and his entering the Promised land; no to Jesus in Gethsamane. He now says no to David. That is part of His Godly attributes as a Father.

Last Hours Of Jesus' Life - Free From Passivity

Contributed by Joanne Chan on May 18, 2018

In this sermon, we look at how the people mocked Jesus as he walked toward the hill of Golgotha, and contrast that with his encounter with Simon from Cyrene to see what it really means to carry the cross for Jesus.

Central theme: Jesus denied himself and took the punishment for us with total dedication. We should take up the cross and follow Jesus, which means denying our old self (our comfort, your desires) and live for God because God is leading us to an even better place. Opening: Think of a place ...read more

The Most Overlooked Key To Church Growth Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Feb 11, 2018

Acts 6 tells us that after the church met the needs of its widows, the "disciples multiplied greatly". What caused this dramatic explosion of growth and what can we learn from that?

Back in the 17th Century, there was a German preacher named August Francke.

One of my favorite stories, which I’m sure I’ve told before, is about a young paratrooper who was learning to jump. He was given the following instructions: First, jump when you are told; second, count to 10 and pull the ripcord; third, in the unlikely event that it doesn't open, pull ...read more

To The Praise Of His Glory Series

Contributed by Chuck Sligh on Apr 24, 2012

This sermon shows how many Christian activities in the NT are directly tied to bringing glory to God. Thus, everything we do, every word we speak and every thought we think should be evaluated on the basis of whether it brings glory to God.

Trust God in the test, because He gives His people the best. The world can only give its people cheap junk that doesn't last, but God give His people real wealth that lasts forever. So choose to live for Him not for the things of the world.
