Impressing God: Harder Than You May Think; Easier Than You May Suppose.

Contributed by Daniel Habben on Nov 10, 2024

Simon Cowell is a familiar name to anyone who has watched shows like American Idol, The X Factor, and America’s Got Talent. He is the judge who’s usually scowling or looking totally bored. If you can get Simon to say something good about your performance, well, you may just be a star!

(3) Most of the “elite” folks of that day and time attended it. Most of all, it was noted because ...read more

David In Saul’s Camp

Contributed by John Gaston on Sep 8, 2022

We see another magical moment when David walks with God and ventures into the impossible. God gave David Saul’s spear-scepter and the king's source of anointing. This was a prevision of what David was later to gain as King.

DAVID IN SAUL’S CAMP 1 Sam. 26:2-25 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. I was thrown out of the break room of my Walmart yesterday. They asked me what I was doing there. I told them, “I’m on a break.” 2.

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Jan 8, 2026

Life’s journey is filled with twists, turns, and unexpected challenges—many of which leave us feeling disoriented or confused. At times, we find ourselves wondering which way to go or how to move forward with clarity and purpose.

This paradigm suggests that past learning can act as a barrier to understanding new ...read more

Girded Saints

Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 20, 2026

Girding precedes armor; readiness begins with being held together so faithfulness can endure pressure without collapse.

There is a kind of readiness that feels loud. It announces itself. It comes with urgency, energy, momentum. People speak faster. Plans multiply. Language sharpens. For a long time, many of us assumed that kind of readiness was faithfulness. If someone was energized, they must be ready. If ...read more

Broken Speech Series

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Nov 24, 2022

God’s interest isn’t limited to whether or not you are swearing falsely. God’s interest is in whether or not you are speaking falsely.

Sermon # 9 - Commandments Over Traditions Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jun 20, 2024

Often the traditions of men have overtaken the commandments of God and thereby, many have missed the true intentions of God’s commandments. May we heed the voice of the Holy Spirit and truly honor and please God in all that we do.

We read in Matthew 15:3, He answered them, "Why do you break the commandment of God because of your traditions? (GW) As we continue to study the questions that Jesus asked, we realize that all of them were deep and thought provoking. In the above mentioned question there are two important ...read more
