I don't need to see because, my Lord my Saviour lives in me. Last week we looked at the two disciples that were on their way home in Emmaus after Jesus was crucified.

Bring Series

Contributed by Tim Smith on May 28, 2015

In our scripture today, God calls us Christ’s ambassadors. What exactly does that mean? An ambassador is someone who represents the interests of their homeland in a foreign country. Spiritually speaking, we are to represent Jesus and invite others

Bring 2 Corinthians 5:18 I think it’s safe to say that the majority of us are here today because of someone else. Maybe you were invited by someone or maybe you grew up in this church and you’re here because of your family. Even those of you who came here on your own, more than likely ...read more

Share Series

Contributed by Tim Smith on May 28, 2015

In our Scripture today, Jesus is saying that as the salt of the earth, and the light of the world, how we live and what we do is supposed to somehow draw those who are far from God to Jesus. We do this by sharing our faith

Share Matthew 5:13-15 When it comes to sharing our faith, many of us have some anxiety about doing so. The idea that we have to talk to somebody about our faith is nerve wracking. Many of us want to but fear usually keeps us from doing it. Here are some of the fears that have been mentioned to me: ...read more

The Cleft Of The Rock

Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Sep 30, 2017

The analogy of Christ to a rock has its roots in Scripture. There are numerous Old Testament references to the Lord as a "Rock" or "Rock of my salvation." Or as one of our songs, drawn from Psalm 18 says, “The Lord liveth, and blessed be the Rock.”

This sermon is rather unusual in format. I paused at various times for one of the members to lead a song relevant to the topic under consideration at the moment, sometimes followed by a prayer directly related to the subject. These notes reflect the pauses and the songs that were sung at those ...read more

Jesus' Chilling Warning, Part I Series

Contributed by James Wallace on Sep 17, 2018

The Gong Show

Contributed by Scott Jewell on Jan 16, 2017

The gong is only mentioned once in all of scripture. Why would Paul use it to start the famous "Love Chapter" and what warning does it contain for us today? (This sermon was preached as part of the series by this name preached by Jeff Strite.)

Dearly Beloved, we have gathered here today to celebrate the love…is often the words we hear preceding the reading of 1 Corinthians 13. It is good that we read what has come to be known as the Love Chapter at a wedding, because it reminds us as we are uniting a couple in love for the rest of their ...read more

Blinded By Darkness

Contributed by Mike Reed on Jul 4, 2014

We commonly associate temporary blindness with bright light, such as looking directly into the sun. It seems strange, then, to read a scripture which tells us that we can be blinded by the darkness! Darkness makes the eyes more alert, more receptive.
