    New Life Really Can Begin Again

    Contributed by James Lee on Dec 15, 2016
     | 5,036 views

    This message shares with the hearer that God is more concerned about where you're going than where you've been.

    There are many things that remind us of Easter. There are flowers, chocolate Easter bunnies, and pretty Easter baskets. But one thing that all of us think of when we think of Easter is Easter eggs. Have you ever wondered why we use the egg to represent Easter? You won’t discover this in ...read more

    The World Turned Upside Down Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 5, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,884 views

    An adaptation of the Seder service: Jesus turns upside down all our common values: sorrow for slavery becomes sorrow for sin; common issues become community; and wandering becomes salvation, all through the Cross.

    When great crowds gather in city streets, it is either for a celebration or for a revolution. Throngs do not come together without a purpose; they come together either to celebrate a great occasion or to agitate for what they want. They come to see evidence of a world turned upside down.

    based on 1 rating
     | 10,581 views

    It is Paul’s greatest declaration of Christian truth; he says that the great results of Easter are: 1. Easter confirmed Christ’s identity. 2. Easter cancelled sin’s penalty. 3. Because of Easter, we can celebrate eternal life.

    3-29-04 Title: What Easter Gives Us Text: “Declared to be the Son of God with power...by the resurrection from the dead.” (Romans 1:3-4).

     | 9,122 views

    Moses would meet the Lord and afterward his face was radiant. The question is how does your Christian life compare to this experience? There is no comparison. Your experience surpasses Moses. In knowing Christ you have a surpassing glory.

    I just came to find out about a preacher who went to the village to share God’s Word. He was preaching from the Bible and telling the people how they should live holy lives following Jesus Christ. As he was preaching the people where intently listening to the Word. Then suddenly while he was ...read more

    The Wedding Banquet: Invitation, Ingratitude, And Indiscretion, Part 2

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 20, 2023
     | 1,219 views

    The original recipients of the invitation to the banquet (Matthew 22:1-7) refused to attend, giving flimsy excuses that resulted in their destruction (v.7). Who would attend the banquet now? Here is where we see the king's mercy extend to "the least of these".

    The Christian band Sidewalk Prophets wrote a song entitled, "Come to the Table", based on the Parable of the Wedding Banquet (Matthew 22:1-14) and the call of God for everyone regardless of their situation to come to the table and take place in the celebration. The Wedding Banquet is ...read more

    Extravagant Magnification Series

    Contributed by Curry Pikkaart on May 7, 2012
     | 9,303 views

    Magnification is useful because it enlarges the object of our attention. It's what we do in worship every week.

    “EXTRAVAGANT MAGNIFICATION” Is. 6:1-8 & Revelation 4:1-11 Even though it’s not used as frequently as it used to be, I still like a magnifying glass. It takes something that’s hard to see and makes it bigger. It brings the word or subject into clearer focus so I can see it ...read more

    Divorce touches Christians as much, or more, than it does those outside of the church. How should we deal with it?

    Is Divorce Okay? Text: Mark 10:1–12 Derek Helt One time a couple of years ago my wife and I were talking with a friend of ours. Our friend happens to be a single mother with two children.

    Friend, you cannot flex your muscles and pray for cancer if you had not already prayed enough for headache! Jesus said, ‘this kind cannot be driven out by anything but prayer!’ THIS KIND!

    THIS KIND! THIS KIND! THIS KIND! Mark 9:29”Jesus he said to the disciples, "This kind cannot be driven out by anything but prayer." The disciples were puzzled why they could not drive the demon out? Jesus clearly said: ‘pray more!’ Actually, I guess they were basking under the ...read more

     | 9,926 views

    It’s been estimated that more Christians have been martyred in the 20th Century than in all the prior 1,900 years combined. More than 200 million Christians in over 60 nations face persecution each day, 60% of these are children.

    By: Donna J. Kazenske I recently had the wonderful privilege of teaching a workshop on persecution at a Christian Training Conference in IIlinois. To my surprise, about 40 people attended the workshop. I was so blessed to be able to share this vital message with the body of Christ. Persecution ...read more

    There’s a lot more to ridin’ a horse than just sittin’ in the saddle and lettin’ your feet hang down. If truth be known there’s more to what happens after the trumpet sounds than many are willing to admit, let’s examine it together!

    Introduction In our last message entitled, "That they all might be damned..." from II Thessalonians 2:1-12 we began this series concerning: After The Trumpet Sounds; we examined the facts that surround the Biblical truths concerning Christ’s Second Coming.

    Do you feel insignificant in your service to God? You may be more powerful than you thought. Or do you feel pretty secure? You may be more in need and weak than you thought. Take some advice from Philadelphia and Laodicea.

    Even as the Philadelphian church doesn’t receive even one rebuke - the church at Laodicea receives not one commendation - the contrast couldn’t be more stark - and that’s not the only contrast we’ll see as we compare these two churches. -The church at Philadelphia was small in appearance but ...read more

     | 6,115 views

    These two Psalms give us two very specific challenges: What/who we worship is what we rejoice about … so do we worship God? For us, there is nothing more powerful or restorative than confession of sin, and we need to do that more and more.

    A Study of Psalm 5 and 6 Psalm 5-6 Introduction - Psalms broken into 5 books, covered an extensive time period - Gathered together as songs of praise & words of encouragement/warning - We are studying book 1, Psalm 1-41 … then will move to something else - There are psalms of wisdom, royal ...read more
