Two Models Of Living Series

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Jun 10, 2023

We can either live for Jesus or live for the pleasures of this world. Reading, memorizing, and meditating on God's word is not enough! To draw nearer to the Lord we simply must put His words into action by imitating those who imitate Christ!

Thoughts And Prayers Matter

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Aug 20, 2019

In the wake of the mass shootings in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio, politicians and many Christians are repeating “Thoughts and prayers are not enough. We need action.” Could it be that they, like many Christians, don’t truly understand prayer and what it can accomplish?

In 2015, after a shooter left 14 dead in California, the cover of the New York Daily News shouted “God Isn’t Fixing This! As the latest batch of innocent Americans are left lying in pools of blood, cowards (referring to politicians) who could truly end gun scourge continue to hide behind ...read more

Summer Of Sin #2 Envy Series

Contributed by John Gaston on Jun 20, 2021

Envy is a condition so poisonous that we’re not able to rejoice in the moment and enjoy what we have, but instead, find fault with it and say, “This isn’t good enough.” The root of it is that we don't trust God is caring for us.

Jesus' Call To Follow Him

Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 17, 2021

Jesus is reaching out to this generation calling them to follow Him. He wants to pour Himself into them to make authentic reproductions of Himself. His call supersedes all other earthly responsibilities. Do we have enough of Jesus to reproduce Him?

The Census Plague

Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Jun 8, 2020

David appears to have been both directed by God and enticed by Satan to conduct a census. A census was begun, David was smitten in his conscience, and the nation was severely punished. What's our take-away from this story?

Fed At The Table Of Jesus

Contributed by Evelyn Weston on Aug 27, 2005

Pentecost 13A: First person sermon. The table scraps that Jesus graciously offers the Canaanite woman’s daughter is better than her daughter usually is treated. However little faith we have, that’s enough for Jesus to work with.

And That's Final -- Except For This One Last Thing... Series

Contributed by W Pittendreigh on Aug 29, 2002

John gives a perfect ending in chapter 20, but then he goes and gives us chapter 21. After saying in chapter 20, "these things are written that you might believe, and in believing have life," what could possibly be important enough to add to that?

John 20:28-21:25 Thomas said to him, "My Lord and my God!" Then Jesus told him, "Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed." Jesus did many other miraculous signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not recorded in this book. But ...read more

People, Like Pennies

Contributed by Timothy Darling on Feb 2, 2007
