The Fire Must Not Go Out Series

A Sower Went Out To Sow

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Oct 13, 2025

But seriously, the word God has for us today, is very direct, heavily relies on scripture, (as most of His messages do), and doesn’t need elaboration.

Good morning! I have a VERY short message for us today. The same apostle that wrote Romans, wrote (fa-LEE-mon) Philemon. I’m not sure if (fa-LEE-mon) was so short because Paul had a meal waiting, or simply because what he had to say, needed to be succinct, short and sweet! Today…I’ve got lunch ...read more

Apathy melts when wounded believers encounter the gentle, pursuing love of Jesus—and a church that mirrors His compassion becomes a place where hearts burn again.

I want to talk to you this morning about something that sits quietly in the corners of our churches. It doesn’t shout. It doesn’t slam doors. It doesn’t usually make the headlines in church board minutes. But it drains the life out of congregations and breaks the heart of Jesus. I want to talk ...read more
