    What Good Can Come From This? PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 5, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 145 views

    God invites us to move beyond cynicism, trust His surprising work, and expect transformation when we honestly bring our doubts and hopes to Jesus in prayer.

    Some of us carry a quiet weariness. We scroll headlines, hear hard news, and think, “Here we go again.” Cynicism creeps in like a cold draft. We start to shrink our hopes, trim our prayers, and settle for safe, small expectations. We wonder if real change is possible. We wonder if God still ...read more

    Following God’s Mission For Kingdom Expansion Series

     | 3,357 views

    The persecution forced the church to decisions that would unlock the full potential of the Church in terms of scope, efficiency, and effectiveness. The Church at Jerusalem became the Church on the move. We are a part of that movement.

    Sermon: Following God’s Mission For Kingdom Expansion Scripture: Acts 8:1-8 “Saul was one of the witnesses, and he agreed completely with the killing of Stephen. A great wave of persecution began that day, sweeping over the church in Jerusalem; and all the believers except the apostles were ...read more

    Ester’s plan demonstrates God's plan to rescue and protect his people using ordinary people and events while continuing to move the Kingdom forward.

    So maybe you’ve heard it said, ‘read your bible’ so you tried and failed. Our hope as leaders is that all of us will pick up God’s word and come to understand the true nature of God. After all, the bible is God’s Word curated over centuries detailing His nature, His will, the meaning of life and ...read more

    Sudden Visitation Of Mercy

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jul 1, 2025
     | 390 views

    Divine mercy is the expression of God’s love that moves Him to help, heal, and rescue us when we least deserve it. Mercy is not earned—it is received.

    SUDDEN VISITATION OF MERCY By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Luke 1:68-69 Supporting Texts: Psalm 102:13, Romans 9:15-16, Isaiah 60:10, John 5:1-9, Lamentations 3:22-23 INTRODUCTION: Divine mercy is the expression of God’s love that moves Him to help, heal, and rescue us when we least deserve ...read more

    I think for the Church to really have Jesus reign and the Spirit to move in the services we need to take the clock off the walls, leave the cell phones and watches in the car.

    I think for the Church to really have Jesus reign and the Spirit to move in the services we need to take the clock off the walls, leave the cell phones and watches in the car.

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,409 views

    This is the picture of the Church of Jesus Christ as it stands today. It is certainly the picture of the church in the last days. We have moved in our study from the days of the Apostles to the days of the Apostasy.

    Revelation 3:14-22 Message to the church of the Laodiceans 1/8/2023 Always remember that these letters to the churches can be viewed from three perspectives. 1.) Practically – These are real letters to real churches with real problems. 2.) Prophetically – These letters portray the ...read more

    When Things Look Hopeless Series

     | 1,335 views

    We frequently look in other directions to try to see spiritual transformation for our churches. Our only hope is a move of the Spirit, who can bring the dead to life.

    DRY BONES: There are moments that seem hopeless. - Ezekiel 37:1-3a. - The immediate context here is the life of Israel. Things had become hopeless for them. - Their disobedience had led them to a place of despair and defeat. As they looked at their ability to stand up to their enemies, the army ...read more

    Contributed by Mike Lewis on Mar 16, 2026
     | 22 views

    This kind of love is not easy. It does not come naturally. And it isn’t something that the world is used to giving—citizens of heaven move toward this type of love and are willing to give it a try.

     | 96 views

    If this spiritual transformation has happened in our lives, Paul then moves to what the proper response should be if that transformation has happened. Believers should set their affection on things above.

    Sermon: Set your Affections on things Above Scripture Lesson: Colossians 3:1–4 “If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth at the right hand of God.

    24. The Kingdom Parables – The Sixth – The Pearl Of Greatest Price – Part 4 Of 4 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 29, 2025
     | 163 views

    The final posting on the Parable of the Pearl of Great Price looks at the church at Philadelphia again, then moves to the period of Church History that is represented by this parable. It is not a denomination or a particular church. It is explained in the message.

    24. The Kingdom Parables – The Sixth – The Pearl of Greatest Price – Part 4 of 4 In this final Part we look especially at the place the Parable of the pearl of greatest price has in Church History as we have done with each of the parables.

    Israel had been at Mr Sinai for a year, building the tabernacle, training an army, and learning God's instructions (Torah). The God told Moses, "you have been at this mountain long enough". It was time to move on and accomplish God's plan for Israel.

It comes from the Septuagint (the Greek translation of the Old Testament) and means “second law” or “repetition of the law.

     | 6,463 views

    This sermon looks at how little things can keep us from moving to a higher level in life and in God. It looks at Achan and his actions at Jericho. Selfishness and greed will hurt those we love.
