All New

Contributed by Doane Brubaker on Jan 14, 2008

When we live in ways consistent with our old sinful nature we’re like an old car that no longer exhibits the beauty and functions of its original design. That all changes when we receive a new life, a new nature, a new heart and a new spirit.

Prayer: Lord, please renew your church. Let her beauty be seen as she reflects your radiance. Empower her to serve the purposes for which you made her. Lord, please renew each of us that our lives will reflect your image, glory and beauty. Renew us to accomplish the work for which you designed ...read more

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Feb 5, 2024

If you do allow the Holy Spirit to lead your life, then you naturally won’t want to gratify the desires of the flesh. But, if you allow the flesh to lead your life, then you will naturally begin to gratify the desires of the flesh. Live by the Spirit's leading!

The Voyager was a spaceship that had ended up far, far from home, and it was slowly making it’s way back through unknown territory. It reminds me of us, as Christians, lost in the wilds of this fallen ...read more

The God Of Increase Series

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on May 26, 2025

God is not just a God of addition—He is the God of increase. From the very beginning, He blessed man and commanded him to “be fruitful and multiply.” Increase is the natural outflow of God’s blessing upon a life, and it is in His nature to multiply what we commit into His hands.

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 1 Corinthians 3:6-7 Supporting Texts: Psalm 115:14, Genesis 1:28, Deuteronomy 1:11, John 15:5, Isaiah 55:10-11 INTRODUCTION: God is not just a God of addition—He is the God of increase.

Beyond Boundaries: Redeeming Love Series

Contributed by Jud Wilhite on Jun 27, 2007

We all have things in our lives that we know we shouldn’t do. We all have things that we’re drawn to or things that we are tempted by. It could be something of a sexual nature in our lives. It could be something of an addictive nature in our lives.

Series: Beyond Boundaries Message #3: Redeeming Love By: Jud Wilhite I have a little boy; he’s almost three years old. One of the things that he absolutely loves to do is he loves to flush things down the toilet. He loves it. I think he even loves it when it gets clogged up and we have to ...read more

Light Pollution Series

Contributed by Sean Dees on Jul 2, 2020

Be careful in not being fooled by artificial light which can try and obscure the natural light. We need to be able to identify that which is natural (God’s Light) and that which is artificial (Satan’s fake stuff). Joh 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy:

Light Pollution Luke 4:16-21 Luke 4:16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, (Let me stop right there and point out that even Jesus went to Church regularly, so if the Son of God did not forsaking the ...read more

Why Eagles Fly And Chickens Flutter

Contributed by John Gaston on Oct 28, 2023

Christians, like Eagles, are destined to fly high in Christ's victorious nature and righteousness. They don't conform to the nature of fallen creatures, who can only flutter slightly above the ground of sin and corruption. Have you realized your genetic heritage yet?

WHY EAGLES FLY AND CHICKENS FLUTTER Rom. 12:2 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Often we get into the same messes as those we’re critical of. 2.

Rising Above The Turkeys Series

Contributed by Vic Folkert on Mar 23, 2018

When people try to make changes, other people may hold them back. As Jacob tries to overcome his scheming nature, Laban drags him down. God intervenes, so that Jacob can rise above that old turkey, Laban, and his own nature as well.

RISING ABOVE THE TURKEYS—Genesis 30:25-31:55 “I could soar like an eagle, if I didn’t have to deal with so many turkeys.” My uncle raised turkeys. Turkeys are pretty stupid. They are always crowding each other, pecking at each other, fighting over food, so they can get big enough to be ...read more

Women Who Did What Was Right

Contributed by Norm Beckett on May 29, 2002

Ordinary women who possessed a courage that was remarkable. In their actions they mirrored the very nature of God – God is the giver and sustainer of life.

The scene is set for us, “…there came to power in Egypt a new king who knew nothing of Joseph” (v. 8). He was a king who saw the ...read more

The Pursuit Of God

Contributed by Maximiliano Zapata on Jun 19, 2001

God has been after you for along time. He has pursued you despite time, nature and yourself.

“The pursuit of God” {Acts 17:24-27} In confronting the thinking of the Athenians, Paul begins correcting their view of the “Unknown God” as he says in verse 23; “Now what you worship as something unknown, I am going to proclaim to you.” He begins by taking them back to the beginning of ...read more

Free From Condemnation

Contributed by Tim Gibson on Nov 23, 2000

Based on the story of the woman caught in sin this sermon shows the nature of true and false guilt and how Jesus deals with it.

(1) INTRODUCTION: Condemnation comes through being GUILTY. In this story the woman was openly guilty, the Scribes and Pharisees were guilty at heart - Their consciences condemning them (Rom 2:15 cf. Ex 31:18). God uses guilt to save us, Satan abuses guilt to trap and destroy us. Two Types ...read more
