    God’s More Interested In Your Future Than Your Past

    Contributed by John Gaston on Feb 8, 2025
     | 1,054 views

    “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” Isa. 43:18-19. Are we seeing what God wants to do thru us?

    GOD’S MORE INTERESTED IN YOUR FUTURE THAN YOUR PAST Isa. 43:18-19 INTRODUCTION A. DO YOU KNOW YOUR TEAMS? 1. WHICH TEAM: CHIEFS OR EAGLES? a. Which team holds the NFL record for the loudest crowd-noise in their stadium? (142.2 decibels) Chiefs. b. Which team has the most “intense ...read more

    "do You Love Me More Than These?"

    With Valentine's Day now passed, we need to examine our hearts and ask the same question Jesus asked Peter after His resurrection, "Do you love Me more than these?"

    John chapter 21 beginning in verse one is where I want to focus today. On the heels of Valentine's Day, I believe it is important to reflect on the one question that the Lord would ask all of us today. "Do you love Me?" Now, at first, we are quick to respond, "YES, LORD! I DO ...read more

    God will do more things for you in the new year than He has done now.

    You Will See Greater Things Than This John 1:43-51 SLIDE 1 Promise: You will see greater things than this.

    This sermon encourages believers to embrace their potential in Christ, become His disciples, and bear witness to His transformative work in their lives.

    Beloved family in Christ, I greet you with the joy and peace of our Lord Jesus. As we gather in this sacred space, we are bound together not by the physical walls that surround us, but by the spiritual ties that unite us. We are brothers and sisters in Christ, a family knit together by the divine ...read more

    Worship Today

    Contributed by Timothy Darling on Jan 4, 2007
     | 2,731 views

    Jesus introduces a shift in worship, focusing worship on the spiritual instead of the physical. The future of worship as Jesus was describing it would be a spiritual more than a ritual activity.

    Worship today John 4:19-24 The original worship must have been amazing. Eve and Adam, surrounded by the Garden of Eden, something between a botanical garden and an orchard. Discussions at dusk of keeping trees, naming animals, new things they tried, and gratitude for the bounty and beauty they ...read more

    There's more to God than a casual knowledge of who he is.

    -Evaluate the Scripture text in a short concise statement. Illustrations: John Wesley said: The same great truth, that there is no such thing as negativegoodness.

    A Better Place Than Heaven

    Contributed by John Gaston on May 30, 2013
    based on 9 ratings
     | 8,453 views

    Many Christians are more anxious to go to heaven than to remain here and work. Heaven is wonderful, but the Bible reveals why the Earth is still the focus of heaven's attention, and why most heavenly saints still probably wish they were down here!

    A BETTER PLACE THAN HEAVEN 1 Jn. 2:28 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Tom and Matt were best of friends, they played football once a week for 50 years. 2. When they were getting older, they had an argument about whether people play football in heaven. So they agreed that whoever died first would let ...read more

    Giving To Others Series

    Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Apr 4, 2019
     | 6,296 views

    Giving always connected with money, materials, and properties. There are some more things we can give to others such as, love, compassion, mercy, tender care, thanks, forgiveness, time and fellowship. We can invest our talents and knowledge on others. The knowledge grows when we share with others.

    Luke 6:38 “Give and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For the measure you use, it will be measured to you” (Luke 6:38). Give: Giving always connected with money, materials, and properties. There are some more ...read more

    Tradition For Tradition's Sake

    Contributed by Beth Garrod-Logsdon on Aug 31, 2009
    based on 6 ratings
     | 13,105 views

    Too often our living and worship become steeped in tradition and ritual. This sermon is a call to examine what we do and more importantly WHY we do it in an attempt to keep us from elevating the traditions of men above the law of God.

    Tradition for Tradition’s Sake Mark 7:1-23 (This message was preceded by singing "Joy to the World" as the opening hymn and the theme of "tradition" was introduced by a video clip of Fiddler on the Roof - from the prologue 1:55 (as the fiddler begins to play) through 3:57 (as Tevye says, "...and ...read more

    Even when we feel drained physically and financially, we still need to offer what resources we do have - and in so doing, find that we can do more than we thought.

    I have a lot of fellow feeling for the disciples in today’s story. I expect all of us who have put so much time and effort into VBS do, too. It’s done! We can put our feet up and have something to eat, talk about how everything went, see how well we did, maybe get a stroke or two for the old ego. ...read more

    "This Do In Remembrance Of Me”

     | 1,452 views

    This do in Remembrance of Me is more than a mental snapshot of something that happed in the past. It is more than a sentimental emotion that places a smile on your face or causes you to perform a ritual out of tradition, but true remembrance affects every aspect of our senses.

    “This Do In Remembrance of Me” By Bishop Melvin L.

    The power of Christ is insurmountable. He can withstand any pressure. He can defeat any enemy. We have no excuse for succumbing to the world when we are His sidekick!

    HEBREWS STRONGER THAN SUPERMAN HEBREWS 1:1-4 PASTOR JIM BOHRER APRIL 6, 2008 Everyone loves a superhero. I remember being fascinated by the Old Black and White Superman.

    Sin Is A Heart Problem! Series

     | 7,640 views

    How God tells you to live is infinitely more important than how others think you should live! This is what Pharisees couldn't grasp. The challenge for us also is: Do not get a big head about it and become arrogant and/or unteachable.

    Sin … It’s a Heart Problem! Mark 7:8-23, 1 John 1:8-10 Introduction - Jesus is demonstrated in this book as a “servant” -- Key verse: Mark 10:45, “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for ...read more
