Laodicea: The Complacent Church PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 20, 2025

Jesus lovingly calls us to reject complacency, pursue genuine relationship with Him, and value what truly matters over worldly success or self-sufficiency.

He doesn’t shove His way into our living rooms; He stands and waits, like the Friend you can trust with the tender truth. You can almost hear the hinge creak as you reach for the ...read more

The Relevance Of Wonders

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 23, 2022

Many churches are asking why they are not growing and why their outreach efforts seem so ineffective. Evangelism is most effective when the proclamation of the gospel is accompanied by a demonstration of signs and wonders.

Ministry and evangelism can be difficult in a country like America that holds a western worldview. The reason why is because people’s skepticism and unbelief concerning “the unseen” and “the miraculous” can limit church growth. God has bestowed on His people authority and power to see souls saved ...read more
