    To every man in this room, you wear several different hats. For some you wear the hat of a husband, a father, a son, a brother, a friend, and a man among many other things. Each of these hats requires you to react in a different mode, different style and a different manner.

    God’s will for you every day is to drink of His Spirit, worship in spirit and truth, and tell others about His Son. If you pursue just these three desires of God every day, you’ll live a full life without all the hassle and hurry.

    Alan Fadling, in his book An Unhurried Life, tells a parable of a king who had two servants. One of the servants, for fear of not pleasing his master, rose early each day to hurry along to do all the things that he believed the king wanted done. He didn't want to bother the king with ...read more

    Resurrection: A Theology Of Hope

    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Apr 10, 2020
     | 4,246 views

    In Mark 16:1-7, we see the two elements of 1) The Grief (Mark 16:1–3) and 2) The Glory (Mark 16:4–7) of God the Father's Resurrection of God the Son bringing "A Theology of Hope"

    Mark 16:1-7 [16:1] When the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James and Salome bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him.

    The Exchanged Life

    Contributed by Paul Dayao on Aug 22, 2025
     | 369 views

    This sermon on Galatians 2:20 presents the "exchanged life" as the Christian's declaration of independence from self, where the old identity is considered crucified with Christ and a new life is lived by the faith of the Son of God, motivated by His personal love and sacrifice.

    Introduction: A Declaration of Spiritual Independence In our world today, the prevailing message is one of self-actualization. "Find yourself," the world cries. "Be true to yourself." "Follow your heart." We are encouraged from every corner to build our own identity, ...read more

    Our God Is Quick! Series

    Contributed by Larry Vollink on Dec 15, 2020
     | 1,786 views

    The word "quick" in the Bible is used to describe God as appointing his Son as judging the "quick and dead" (Act's 10:42) but also in the last chapter of the Bible (Revelation 22) He asked to "Come Quickly."

    Years ago, (1960's) we remember the TV commercial for Nestle's Quik, where the actor asks for a Chocolate mix, Nestles, with a glass of milk and 2 tablespoons and stir it. Then the person is starting to feel much better! And the dog watching with the loud mouth says ...read more

    The Book Of Galatians – Chapter 4:21–29 - Message 16 – The Argument Of Contrasts: Which Woman Are You Following? Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 18, 2024
     | 639 views

    Two ways, two sons, two destinies, two mothers but one father – Hagar and Sarah being the two mothers. Paul develops this position of two systems, one under bondage and one according to promise and freedom. Christians can place themselves under bondage.

    THE BOOK OF GALATIANS – CHAPTER 4:21–29 - MESSAGE 16 – THE ARGUMENT OF CONTRASTS: WHICH WOMAN ARE YOU FOLLOWING? Part 1 – Galatians 4 verses 21 – 23 We come now to the latter part of chapter 3 and the continuing evidence why Christians are not under Law but walk by grace through the promises ...read more

     | 2,916 views

    A truly amazing story in the OT is the promise that God made to Abram and Sarai that involved them having a son. Sarai unable to have children. The Promise was unexpected! As time went by, both of them passed the age of childbearing and there was a lot of mystery around God’s promise.

    Overcome By Obedience Genesis 21:1-3; Genesis 22:1-14 Introduction A truly amazing story in the OT is the promise that God made to Abram and Sarai that involved them having a son.

    How does a father feel, sacrificing his son, to war, or to a cross? Abraham faced that test, and passed. What could Isaac have been thinking during his father’s trial of faith? Let's look at Isaac's faith.

    Isaac was the son of promise, yet Abraham was tested. How does a father feel, sacrificing his son, to war, or to a cross? Abraham faced that test, and passed.

    If I had been in charge of announcing to the world about God's Son being born I wouldn't have selected shepherds: unclean, uneducated, unknown. But who best to tell about the Lamb of God being born, than shepherds?

    Work Out Your Salvation With Fear And Trembling

    Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on Jun 17, 2022
     | 3,797 views

    Salvation is free. It is God's gift to mankind. Though free, it was purchased with the priceless blood of the son of God, Jesus Christ. It is the most expensive gift you will ever get. Guard it with all diligence and reverent fear. Don't toy with your salvation.

    TEXT: Phil 2:12-13 (NIV) "Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good ...read more

    What We Believe About Evangelism And Missions Series

     | 1,825 views

    Maybe you have a personal relationship with God through His Son Jesus and yet God has not blessed you like He could. One reason for that might be because you have received your orders but you have failed to carry them out.

    Famous last words have always been fascinating to me. Some people say words of great profundity and some people don't know what they are saying. Luciano Pavarotti -- one of the greatest opera singers ever in the world -- said "I believe that a life lived for music is an existence spent ...read more

    David must’ve looked back on his life at a ripe old age, and looked back at all the ups and downs of his life, from being the youngest son of the family, while his brothers fought in the army, he was left alone to watch over the sheep.

    "The Lord is my shepherd; I have all that I need. He lets me rest in green meadows; he leads me beside peaceful streams. He renews my strength.

    John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, 'He has a demon.' The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, 'Look, a glutton and a winebibber, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!'

    Luke 7:36-50 (NKJV) The Saviour and a Sinful Servant April 7, 2024 There are two servants here, the Pharisee serving dinner and a Prostitute serving kindness.

     | 6,514 views

    In the biblical narrative he is a disciple and protégé of Elijah, and after Elijah was taken up in a whirlwind, he gave Elisha a double portion of his power and he was accepted as the leader of the sons of the prophets. Elisha then went on to perform twice as many miracles as Elijah.

    Elijah and Elisha Elijah was the one who clashed with King Ahaz about worshipping Baal, who was eventually proved to be impotent. Elisha was Elijah's successor. He is the one who healed Naaman (captain of the king of Syria's army) of leprosy. The Bible story of Elijah and Elisha is found ...read more

    If you leave the Christmas story in Matthew and Luke, you do not recognize how long God was planning and preparing and moving all of the pieces of the world in order for us to receive the greatest gift that has ever been given to man, which is Jesus Christ, His Son.

    We often sell ourselves short when we say to each other simple clichés, like, "Jesus is the reason for the season". Now, I'm not shaming anybody who's used it because it works at this time of year. But the reality of it is, is Jesus is not the reason for the season. Jesus is ...read more
