A brief homily on repentance

Good EVENING and thank you all for coming out.

Love And Marriage

Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Feb 17, 2024

For Growing Love Series

Contributed by Scott Jewell on Feb 18, 2024

Paul's love for the church of Philippi motivated his prayers for them. What does this demonstrate for us as we pray for our churches today?

This past Wednesday, we celebrated Valentine’s Day. So it seems appropriate that we talk about a prayer about growing love since the idea of love is on people’s minds. I had to chuckle when I saw this meme on Facebook and shared it with someone who had posted to see if anyone would like ...read more

A Love Story Series

Contributed by Jerald Scott on Nov 19, 2024

Lesson drawn from Hosea about the depth of love we can know

A Love Story Christmas is a love story. John frames it that way. “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." (John 3:16, NIV) But, God’s love story is not about roses, candlelight, and romance! It’s more ...read more

A Look At Love

Contributed by Lee Houston on Jan 9, 2025

This week’s sermon will cover one word whose understandings are central to Judeo-Christian beliefs: I will explain one English word, Love. Why? The Greek language has nine different words for Love with six of those nine translated into bible text.

Sermon: A Look at Love Specific Purpose: The writers of our New Testament wrote mostly in Greek. This sermon's purpose is to investigate the Greek words for 'love'. As pastors, we do our best to explain some point in God’s Word in each sermon. That means we must first dig into ...read more

Love Not The World

Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on Jan 15, 2025

The Unity Of Love

Contributed by Denn Guptill on May 13, 2023

Paul's desire was that the Church would be unified, but what does that look like? We live in a time when the church seems fragmented and divided, and that is affecting who we reach and don't reach people.

The Unity of Love If nothing else, you need to love the sixties and seventies for their awesome sense of style. The band was “The Brotherhood of Man,” the year was 1970, and the message of the song was spelled out in its title “United we stand, divided we fall.” Interesting tidbit about the ...read more
