    A Psalm of Confidence expresses trust in God’s goodness and power because we have an intimate awareness of God’s presence. Psalm 91 is an example off this.

    In Peter’s life story we have the record of three times when he was off guard, relaxed, asleep. On each occasion there was something that he did not know.

    I Lay Me Down To Sleep Acts 12:6 Sleeping at the wheel is a good way to keep from growing old. The amount of sleep required by the average person is about five minutes more. Laugh and the world laughs with you, snore and you sleep alone. People who say they sleep like a baby usually don’t ...read more

    Sermon 2 in a 5 part series to start off 2008, level 1 is "Living", worshipping together. Title borrowed from David Crowder song of same title.

    A Beautiful Collision John 4:23-24 Intro: I love football, as you know.

    Jesus Was Tempted!

    Contributed by David Smith on Feb 20, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,948 views

    For Jesus, as for us, overcoming temptation was not a one-off fight. The temptation experience that we read of today was, if I might extend the boxing analogy, more like one...

    It’s the first Sunday in Lent and we’re back in the wilderness with Jesus.Every year we make this journey - 40 days and 40 nights it lasts! - and every year it continues to be a painful trek (as I think it‘s expected to be). And I’m conscious of the fact that a lot of ink (real and virtual) has ...read more

    An Audience Of One Series

    Contributed by Mark Opperman on Oct 1, 2015
     | 8,164 views

    True worship is all about God, not about us. How important it is that we serve God and communicate with Him in a way that takes the focus off of us and puts it on Him!

    An Audience of One Matthew 6:1-6 "Be careful not to do your 'acts of righteousness' before men, to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven. 2 "So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the ...read more

    This message preceded the dedication and send off of all the shoeboxes this congregation prepared for Samaritan's Purse Operation Christmas Child. All Scripture references are from the NASB.

    These shoeboxes, packed with much love and prayer, will be shipped out quite literally to the ends of the earth.

    The sermon is based on the idea of how we can live a life of being thankful by setting our minds on being thankful, by not being selfish, and by putting off and putting on.

    Thanks-Living Colossians 3:1-15 How does one live a life of Thanks type Living? 1. Thanks-Living is Setting One’s Mind Chapter 3 :1says, "Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above A. Do Not set Ones Mind on ...read more

    At the end of Romans 13, Paul reminds Christians of the debt of love they owe and warns them to wake up and put off the deeds of darkness because the return of Christ is nearing.

    A. One of my favorite things to do as a father when our daughters were growing up, was to wake them up in the morning. 1. I loved seeing their sweet, sleepy faces as I woke them with a gentle voice, saying, “It’s time to wake up.” 2. What is your attitude when you wake up? a. I’m a morning ...read more

    Number 18 in a series on John's Gospel. In this sermon I play off the comedian Bill Engvall's popular skit, and use it to point to Jesus

    Here’s Your Sign! (Gospel of John Part 18) Text: John 6:1-15 A few years back, the comedian, Bill Engvall had some success with a style of jokes where the punchline was – “Here’s your sign.” And basically what they were, were jokes in which he described a scene or event that was painfully obvious ...read more

    What will you give? Is this a bargain? What do we think off when we think about 30 pieces of silver? Think of the selling prices of people in the Bible?

    I think for the Church to really have Jesus reign and the Spirit to move in the services we need to take the clock off the walls, leave the cell phones and watches in the car.

    I think for the Church to really have Jesus reign and the Spirit to move in the services we need to take the clock off the walls, leave the cell phones and watches in the car.

    The Parable Shocks But Christ's Message Is Powerful

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 16, 2025
     | 396 views

    The goal is to spread the message of Christ and His Church of the will of God to save all human beings. If the authorities are dragging us off to jail it’s hard to fulfill that mission.

    Twenty-fifth Sunday in Course 2025 Reading today’s excerpt from the letter of Saint Paul to Timothy, you might get the impression that the goal of any church congregation is to “lead a quiet an tranquil life in all devotion and dignity.” That sounds like an average middle-class suburban lifestyle, ...read more

    Equating the conditions of salvation with the conditions of discipleship is a sure path to confusion. This sermon explains Christ’s demands of costly commitment to be his disciple, experience his greatest blessings and be rewarded in heaven.
