As Christians, we realize....all too soon in our Christian walk, that the battle between us and the lusts of the flesh...between us and the world...between us and the allurement of satan.....these things are tremendously difficult! A. When we read passages indicating that we are truly ...read more

Christian Paradoxes Series

Contributed by George Durham on Feb 15, 2002

The radical call of Christ is to live with a counter-culture world view based on the paradoxes of Christianity.

Almost A Christian

Contributed by Neal Gracey on Mar 30, 2002

Salvation is more than just saying yes. It’s more than just being baptized. It’s more than going to church. It’s a lifetime commitment to the most wonderful friend of them all.

I was listening to a sermon by R. C. Sproul and he quoted a theologian from some college somewhere. I didn’t catch the guys name but when I heard the quote it got my attention. “Religion is the Opiate of the people” (Explain) Kills pain Takes away our problems Temporary Fix There’s a slight ...read more

Marks Of A Christian

Contributed by John Telgren on Jun 1, 2003

What are the marks of a true Christian? Perhaps it would be helpful to look at what is not a mark of a Christian first, then what the mark of a Christian is

For instance, people that cut down trees will mark which ones stay, and which ones get cut down. Auto parts stores will mark the parts they sell that have lifetime ...read more

Dangerously Christian Series

Contributed by Keith Manry on Jun 12, 2003

This sermon was preached on Pentecost Sunday and challenges the church to become "Dangerously Christian!" (Len’s Sweet’s phrase).
