    When the church looks like what Jesus created the church to look like the church will accomplish what Jesus designed the church to accomplish.

    The Church is Born… The last verse of the passage that we studied together last week described the birth of the Church—ACTS 2:41. The Holy Spirit had helped the preacher preach and the Gospel of Jesus Christ was proclaimed with power. The Holy Spirit had helped the hearers hear when ...read more

    What Is Faith?

    Contributed by David Scudder on Sep 2, 2010
     | 3,619 views

    Faith in God is not a leap into the dark. Faith in God produces a light that we never saw before.The same God who spoke the stars into existence spoke promises in the Bible.

    Purpose: To show that faith is real. Aim: I want the listener to see the reality that real faith produces. INTRODUCTION: Faith seems to be a mysterious and illusive thing. Many of us tend to think that faith is a feeling that everything is going to be alright, sometimes we call it hope. When ...read more

    Sermon on the matter of tithing to the church.

    Tithes Genesis 14:18-20 As I was preparing this message I couldn’t decide on how I wanted to start this morning. Maybe with a story, or an anecdote. But I don’t really know how. The topic this morning has caused a lot of people to get angry. It has caused some people to leave the ...read more

    Faith is more than a mental understanding of God and his good things, it is action.

    1There is an evil that I have seen under the sun, and it lies heavy on mankind: 2a man to whom God gives wealth, possessions, and honor, so that he lacks nothing of all that he desires, yet God does not give him power to enjoy them, but a stranger enjoys them. This is vanity; it is a grievous evil. ...read more

    How Can This Be?

    Contributed by Casey Campbell on Feb 19, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,416 views

    Sermon makes a biblical argument for a return to "spiritual" Christianity as opposed to "biblical" Christianity. Christian unity, prosperity, and hope are gifts of the Spirit that we may be missing in our (misplaced) commitment to Scripture. The sermon

    Articles and manuscripts and talking heads across the country announce and bemoan and celebrate (depending on their particular proclivity) in the news that "biblical" Christianity is in decline. As numbers decline and influence wanes, there is much evangelical hand-wringing and second-guessing and ...read more

    "Therefore I Will Give Thanks Unto The Lord”

     | 2,364 views

    A man gave a little boy a piece of candy. The mother was embarrassed, because the child immediately stuck the candy in his mouth and ate it, and did not thank the man.

    The mother immediately said, “What do you say to the nice man who gave you a piece of candy?” The little boy seemed somewhat puzzled as to what she wanted him to say, but suddenly a smile came on his face, as if he finally realized what she wanted him to say, and he said, “Can I have some ...read more

    Developing Godly Habits: How To Order Your Life

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 5, 2021
     | 4,064 views

    Today we’re looking at the topic of developing great habits. So we’re going to look at a theological concept, exam some scripture, and then consider our applications.

    I try to exercise regularly. I have to exercise a great deal and be very, very careful about how I eat, because my body is very good at gaining weight and not very quick to lose it. Can anyone relate? I always have eggs for breakfast, and coffee. I try not to eat again all morning until lunch ...read more

    The Rejected God

    based on 2 ratings
     | 10,810 views

    We can call ourselves Christians, go to church, give our tithes, etc. and yet have rejected God effectively. The picture Jeremiah gives of life in Judah comes close to life in the Christian West, with several gods competing for our loyalty.

    [Sermon preached on 4 March 2018, 3rd Sunday in Lent / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] It is so endearing at times to see little children in a big supermarket or shopping mall. They come in with mom or dad, but as soon as they see something interesting—toys, candies, pets, or anything else that ...read more

    We’re all being prepared to be witnesses through the anointing of the Holy Spirit.

    We begin with a conversation about the deepest question of all: why are we here? what’s the meaning of our lives? Nothing enduringly great has ever been achieved without asking that question. For us, as Christians, we have answered the question through the lenses of ONE indisputable Truth – God ...read more

    The Mission Of Evangelism

     | 2,016 views

    The work of the Church is to be about the work of evangelism. We need to be about the Lord's work of sharing the word.

    Let's talk about social justice in the context of Christianity. What exactly is social justice? Depending on who you ask you might get any number of definitions.

    We Are Not Ignorant Of Satan’s Devices Or Schemes – Part 7 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Dec 6, 2023
     | 1,581 views

    We live in a corrupt world. Truth has stumbled in the street, and uprightness cannot enter. Satan permeates right through society especially in the judiciary. There is little justice any more. We look at ways Christians are penalised by Satan’s system, but evil is promoted.

    WE ARE NOT IGNORANT OF SATAN’S DEVICES OR SCHEMES – PART 7 We continue this study of the schemes Satan uses to infiltrate all aspects of humanity. His influence is everywhere. We need wisdom and reliance on the Lord for the battle we are engaged in. We will examine two more of these schemes. ...read more

    Take the challenge to be humble, open to the Holy Spirit, have a repentant heart, a sincere desire for God, pursue holiness, stay continually anointed and be of one mind and spirit within the body of Christ.

    Introduction: Something's happening ... Couple of years ago I read a book by James Rutz. James wrote this book to make the Christian church aware that God is moving across the world.
