The Garden Of Gethsemane – The Vitality Of Intercession (2/12) Series

Contributed by Eduardo (Eddie) Fernandes on Jun 17, 2020

Many don’t know how to pray. Prayer involves more than petition. When times get tough believers must fall to their knees before the throne of mercy with nobody else around. In the most terrifying week of His life Jesus retreated to pray. It was in Gethsemane where He won the victory, not on Calvary!

Introduction Slide 1 (title of series) For those who missed it, last week we began a 12 week adventure in the life of Jesus as we study what are called “The 12 stations of the cross.” In the last few weeks of the life of Jesus on earth we will study significant places He stopped at and what we can ...read more

New Race With New Rays Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Apr 16, 2019

Accepting resurrected Christ is more than finding a jackpot, that means when we find Christ, we found everything for life. There is No place for a word known as ‘good luck’ when Christ is with us (Phil.4:13). Christ changes our life on earth, everything becomes new (2 Cor.5:17).

Easter Theme: NEW RACE WITH NEW RAYS Text: Mark 16:9-20 Greetings I wish you all Happy Resurrection Day of Christ. This sermon is covering the theme “New Race with New Rays’.

It's My Party And I'll Cut Off The Head Of John The Baptist If I Want To

Contributed by R. Joseph Owles on Jun 22, 2011

Who among us is better than Herod? Who among us has not twisted events, facts, details, to suit our own purposes? Who among us has not placed more value on our image than on human need? Who among us has not intentionally given in to easier of the two choi

I'll admit to you all that I had a difficult time with this passage. I spent weeks staring at it , researching it, praying about it, looking for that point of brilliance that would dazzle and amaze you all, once more showing off my preaching skills, once more being the "golden boy."

What Is Your Calling? (Part 1) Series

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Mar 10, 2016

If you don’t consistently spend time alone with God in His Word and in prayer, you don’t have a walk with God! If you don’t have a walk with God, you will not be able to stand alone as Noah did. You will be more conformed to this evil world than you ...

No Condemnation To Those Who Are In Christ

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Jan 30, 2022

The point here is that there is a debt that we owe because of our sin, and no matter how hard we try, we can't pay it. For us the amount is not zero. It is more than we can imagine. How can we escape condemnation? The answer is found in our text, Romans chapter eight.

Alba 1-30-2022 NO CONDEMNATION TO THOSE WHO ARE IN CHRIST Romans 8:1-11 In March 1992, a man living near Boston, Massachusetts received a bill for his unused credit card.

With Us - Peace Series

Contributed by Thomas Bartlett on Dec 10, 2020

If we’re honest, we’re all looking for something. It seems to me that most people today, now more than ever simply want inner peace. Less stress, a sense of wellbeing and moments of time where their mind is not occupied with thoughts of, “I must”, “what if” or “I wonder why”?

Judas - Walking With Jesus But Following Satan

Contributed by Claude Alexander on Mar 22, 2022

There are few more perplexing questions of the Bible than this: If He knew that Judas would betray Him in the end, why did Jesus choose Judas as a disciple to begin with?. And what does Jesus have to teach us by choosing someone to be his disciple, knowing full well he would betray him?

Judas the traitor. Walking with Jesus but following Satan. John 13: 21-27 Every story needs a villain and Judas Iscariot fills this role in the gospels. He is the apostle who betrayed Jesus and helps the Jewish authorities to arrest him. Judas enjoyed a privileged position among Jesus' ...read more

The Depth Of God's Love (Good Friday 2022)

Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Apr 13, 2022

Some people use the word 'love' in the same way they use 'like' or understand 'love' to express certain feelings. God's love is more than that! As we celebrate the Good Friday today, let’s meditate on the depth of God’s love.

As we observe the Good Friday today, let’s meditate on the depth of God’s love. Let’s read Romans 5:5-11. The word 'love' has lost its true meaning. Some people use the word 'love' in the same way they use the word 'like.' They say, "I love God," "I love my ...read more

What If

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Jun 16, 2022

Non-denominationalism only divided us more then we ever were before. If satan's kingdom cannot stand if divided against itself how can the House of God stand when we are so divided? We say we are one Body, but we look like a body hit by an explosion.

Mark 3:24  And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.  25  And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand.  1 Corinthians 12:12  For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, ...read more

Daniel’s Path To The Top

Contributed by Anitha Jabastion on Sep 24, 2025

Working in the corporate world for more than 18 years, I know well the everyday struggles we face. We’ve seen how people try to climb the ladder of power or position. Some butter up their bosses. Others work the room - networking, playing politics, bending the rules - anything to get ahead.

Give It Up Series

Contributed by Mark Eberly on Oct 8, 2007

God is All-Good, we are not. We can trust God even when we can’t trust anything else. However, we often don’t truly trust God. Since there is no gift that is not at our finger tips, it is hard to trust a God that has more to give than what we already give
