Thirsting For God

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Nov 29, 2025

This sermon calls every believer to examine the true object of their deepest thirst and turn from the world’s broken wells to the only Source who can satisfy—the living God, who invites us to come, drink, and truly live.

Thirsting for God “If you don’t find life before death, you can’t find life after death” Every human being lives with a thirst.

"The Forgotten Man Of Christmas,” (Christmas Sermon)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 17, 2025

Today like ministers across this great nation I want to preach a sermon about Christmas. But in this Christmas sermon I feel led to take a different approach from most sermons that are being preached today. Today I want to preach about THE FORGOTTEN MAN OF CHRISTMAS!!!

Text: Introduction: • Generally, Mary the mother of Jesus is the focus of attention normally in a Christmas sermon. • But there is another individual that is equally important in the Christmas story, and I want to focus on JOSEPH, THE EARTHLY FATHER OF OUR LORD JESUS.

The Peace Altar

Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 20, 2025

God gives peace before the battle, speaks identity before performance, and empowers fearful people through His presence, not their strength.

Most of us assume peace comes after things change. After the diagnosis is clear. After the conflict is resolved. After the money situation stabilizes. After the fear finally loosens its grip. We tell ourselves, “I’ll have peace when the battle is over.” But the story of Gideon opens with a ...read more

Elevate To The Next Level - "Living Intentionally

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Aug 3, 2025

I’d like to look at intentional living, which is about reassessing life, and living lives intentionally given the fact each one has only so many days left to live. As we begin, we’ll find those things we considered important might not be that important after all.

Teach Us To Pray Series

Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Aug 11, 2025

Following a time of prayer, one of Jesus' disciples asked Him to teach them how to pray. Luke records an abbreviated version of the Lord's prayer and then includes elements that encourage us to be bold in our prayer, promising provision and presence from God.

Over the last couple of sections of Luke’s gospel, we’ve considered the importance of loving God with all that we are and loving others. We’ve also reflected on the value of sitting before Jesus in order to just be with Him and learn before we get in to the practice of serving. It seems like in ...read more

A Call To The Market Place Series

Contributed by Denn Guptill on Sep 27, 2025

When we think of a call, we often think of a full-time vocation. This message looks at what it means to be called to the Marketplace.

When you hear that someone has been called to something or has answered a call on their life, who do you think of? A preacher? A missionary? Maybe a doctor, a nurse or a teacher.
