    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Aug 27, 2024
     | 1,071 views

    The prophets in the Old Testament, the Psalmist and John the Revelator tell the story of the day of the Lord. The day of the Lord will be the time, Christ return to judge the world and consummate all things.

    Sermon: The Day of the Lord Will Come Luke 17:26-37 “When the Son of Man returns, it will be like it was in Noah’s day. In those days, the people enjoyed banquets and parties and weddings right up to the time Noah entered his boat, and the flood came and destroyed them all. “And the world will be ...read more

    Nothing You Can Do To Make God Love You More Or Less

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Sep 25, 2024
     | 2,506 views

    Recently I have been hearing quite a few pastors using a quote from Henri Nouwen a Dutch Catholic priest that states, “There is nothing we can do to make God love us more and nothing we can do to make God love us less.” Is that true? Let's see what God's Word has to say about it.

    Do you have a Bible? I was once told that in a simple Bible with no maps, no apocrypha and no commentary you would find the Psalms in the center of the Bible. So, I thought maybe it would be Psalm 119 since it has 174 verses and is the longest chapter in the Bible. However, in my Bible it turns out ...read more

    Sorry/Not Sorry

    Contributed by Troy Borst on Oct 8, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,143 views

    Repentance is not a one-time one-action in the Bible but is a spiritual process that involves turning away from sin and turning or returning to God.

    SORRY/NOT SORRY ACTS 3:19-20 #repentance INTRODUCTION… Background of “Sorry not Sorry” The phrase “sorry/not sorry” is a sarcastic way of acknowledging that someone might not like whatever you are saying or doing … but you don’t really care. “Sorry not sorry” is a new take on a time-honored ...read more

    That's Not How It Works

    Contributed by Brian Harvison on Oct 4, 2023
     | 3,216 views

    The healing of the lame man at the Pool of Bethesda is an amazing picture of salvation. Jesus, our merciful deliverer, is the only one who can heal us of our sickness of sin.

    That’s Not How It Works John 5:1-15 • There’s a story about a man who died and stood before the gates of Heaven • An angel met him and said We have a new plan for getting into heaven • We are now using a points system • You need 1000 points to enter • The man confident in his righteous life knew ...read more

     | 2,945 views

    The following sermon is going to review five people's glimpses of the Lord and how their lives were forever changed! Since meeting God is not an impossibility but a divine gift from our Creator, let us never stop seeking Him and inviting Him to transform our very lives for His honor and glory!

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 1, 2023

     | 1,492 views

    God specializes in restoring those who are lost and gone away from Him. Everyone needs to be in the place God has assigned for us, for only there are we assured of God’s protection, privilege and we will also find our true worth.

    We read in Luke 15:20, “And he rose up and went to his own father. But while he was yet a long way off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and ran, and fell upon his neck, and covered him with kisses.” (Darby) We meditated a little on this passage in the last sermon, considering ...read more

    The Joseph Principle

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Nov 22, 2023
     | 2,025 views

    But that principle does not apply to the story of Joseph in Genesis. In fact, the example of how Joseph succeeded and was used by God is the opposite of the Peter Principle. It is enough different that it deserves its own name. It can be called the Joseph Principle.

    Alba 6-30-13 THE JOSEPH PRINCIPLE Genesis 50:19-21 Have you heard of the Peter Principle? It was formulated by Laurence J. Peter and Raymond Hull in their 1969 book called The Peter Principle. The Peter Principle is a proposition that states that the members of an organization where promotion ...read more

    Christmas is a time that is considered to be a time of real hope. Yet, it actually took place in a very hopeless time. What do we learn about real hope from Mary?

    Anyone here named “Hope?” Hope is one of the most awesome names in the United States. Here’s what we know about the name: 1. Hope is ranked as the 714th most popular name in the US. 2. Based on the Social Security Baby Data base there are 73,426 people in the US named “Hope.” 3. There are 18.9 ...read more

    Dream Come True

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Aug 19, 2023
     | 1,449 views

    We dream small, but God dreams big. Mary’s dream was a small one, limited by her time and place and circumstances. Yet when God called her, she became a part of the greatest event the world has ever known.

    What do you think of when you hear the phrase “American Dream”? All of us here are immigrants, one way or another.... Some have been here for two or three hundred years - or more! I think some of mine came in the 17th century. What did your ancestors come here for? Was it for religious freedom, or ...read more

    The transfiguration of Jesus looks backwards to Moses and Elijah, and looks forward to Jesus' passion, ascension and return. The transfiguration is significant for Jesus, His apostles, and all of us.

    Introduction: A. What are the most glorious things you have ever seen? 1. The birth of a baby? A breathtaking sunset? The pounding ocean surf or the shear force of the water going over Niagara Falls? 2. As glorious as those things are, none of those things can even come close to the glorious ...read more
