    The Light Still Shines

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 23, 2025
     | 88 views

    Christ calls us to share the thrilling gospel, live as true disciples, and trust His daily presence so His light still shines.

    Introduction – The Most Thrilling Story Many years ago, when Adoniram Judson was doing powerful missionary work in Burma, he returned home for furlough and was invited to speak at a church in the United States. The congregation expected an exciting account of danger and heroism—stories of jungle ...read more

    A Broken Man Before The Boundless Gospel

     | 403 views

    Locked doors and crowded rooms can stop most people, but real faith finds a way. In Mark 2:1–12 four friends tear through a roof to place a paralytic before Jesus—He forgives first, then heals—showing His authority and calling us to carry others to Him.

    A little while ago I was installing a keypad lock on the door to my upstairs studio—just trying to add an extra layer of security for my equipment, cameras, computers, all that production stuff. So I set the keypad lock up, got the old handle out of the door, got the batteries in, set the code, all ...read more

    John 4 -- Nobleman's Son. The second sign in John's Gospel shows the Word made flesh has limitless authority and power.

    Introduction I want to begin today with a simple refrain you may have heard before: God said it. I believe it. And that settles it for me. That little line may sound like something out of a gospel chorus, but it’s actually the heartbeat of the second sign in John’s Gospel. We’re in John chapter ...read more

    The Enemy’s Final Defeat Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 6, 2025
     | 126 views

    God overturns every evil plot; favor follows surrender, and the cross turns Satan’s gallows into unstoppable victory for God’s people.

    Esther isn’t just a story; she’s a sign. She’s the picture of a bride standing tall in a collapsing world. We’re not in the first of the last days. We’re in the last of the last days! Can somebody say Amen! Before that trumpet sounds, there’s gonna be a stirring in God’s people like this world ...read more

    Standing In The Gap Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 6, 2025
     | 121 views

    God still seeks intercessors who stand between judgment and mercy; prayerful courage releases divine authority and brings deliverance to His people.

    Introduction – The Call to Stand Last week we saw Esther’s victory and Haman’s fall. But there’s more to the story. Before there was a banquet, before the gallows were reversed, there was a woman on her knees saying, “If I perish, I perish.” Every victory begins with somebody willing to stand in ...read more

    Signed, Sealed, And Delivered Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 6, 2025
     | 72 views

    Christ’s finished work overturns the enemy’s decree; His authority seals our deliverance, and we now carry His victory everywhere.

    Introduction – The Victory Is Not in Doubt We’ve walked with Esther from fear to favor, from risk to reward, from prayer to power. We saw a little orphan girl rise to become a queen. We saw Haman hang on the gallows he built for someone else. We’ve watched the story turn. Now, in chapter 8, ...read more

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 6, 2025
     | 211 views

    When all seemed lost, God reversed the decree—turning fear into faith, sorrow into joy, and defeat into glorious victory.

    Introduction - Children’s Prayers A mother was teaching her three-year-old the Lord’s Prayer. Night after night they practiced, and one evening the little girl said, “Mommy, I can do it myself.” So she folded her tiny hands and prayed, “Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us some ...read more

    The Sabbath remains holy and God’s enduring invitation to rest in His finished grace.

    Introduction – A Change No One Voted On Some of the biggest changes in history happen so quietly that we only notice their results. Languages drift, customs morph, recipes evolve, and one day we realize the original flavor has vanished. That is how the Sabbath changed. It was not a decision of ...read more

    Find Your Towel

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 1, 2025
     | 30 views

    Jesus gives authority to serve, not rule—power shaped like a towel, lifting others, revealing love’s quiet strength, and mirroring His heart.

    1. The Ladder and the Towel My senior pastor once stood with me in the church fellowship hall staring at a row of framed photographs—portraits of evangelists who had conducted meetings through the years. His finger paused on one. “H. M. S. Richards, Sr.,” he said softly. Then came a line I’ll ...read more

    The Devil Is In The Details – No, Really! (Spiritual Warfare)

    Contributed by Gordon Brownlee on Jun 20, 2025
     | 277 views

    Spiritual powers have away of misleading us in life due to an original contract with man in the garden. Yet authority in Christ rectifies that in numerous ways.

    Prior to the fall and possibly before the earth was actually perfected, God was forced to bring judgment upon an angelic creature who sought to raise himself up as equal with God. He is known by many names, all of which describe various aspects of his character, but for now we will simply refer to ...read more

    An unlocked door can keep you out if you don’t know it is unlocked. What did Jesus unlock for us?

    Unlocked Pt. 3 - A Place Holder I. Introduction If you don't believe an unlocked door is just as strong and restrictive as a locked door if you don’t know that the door is unlocked, then all you need to do is google bank robbery failures.

    What Would Jesus Ride?

    Contributed by Joel Pankow on Apr 1, 2020
     | 3,276 views

    Jesus rides into Jerusalem on a beast of burden to be our beast of burden.

    4.5.20 Philippians 2:5-8 Indeed, let this attitude be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus. Though he was by nature God, he did not consider equality with God as a prize to be displayed, but he emptied himself by taking the nature of a servant. When he was born in human likeness, and his ...read more
