    Hearing And Responding To God's Word

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Jan 4, 2026
     | 88 views

    When God’s Word is heard, it always calls for a response. Today we look at how true worship begins when we let Scripture convict, change, and fill us with the joy of God’s mercy.

    Good morning. We have two readings today that describe a gathering of God’s people around reading His Word, they’re read together this Sunday to give us a nice Biblical compare/contrast on how to react when you hear God’s word, and especially when it is convicting. It’s also opportunity to reflect ...read more

    Understanding The Characteristics Of The Carnal Man

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Aug 12, 2025
     | 543 views

    The term “carnal man” refers to a believer who has experienced the new birth but still lives according to the desires, impulses, and reasoning of the flesh rather than the leading of the Holy Spirit.

    The Logic Of Surrender: A Living Sacrifice, A Renewed Mind

    Contributed by Paul Dayao on Aug 29, 2025
     | 264 views

    This sermon explains that the only logical response to God's mercy is a life of true worship, expressed through the daily surrender of our bodies and the radical transformation of our minds.

    Introduction: The Great "Therefore" Good morning to you, church. In the book of Romans, the first eleven chapters are like a majestic and soaring symphony. Paul lays out the grand story of God's redemption—the depth of our sin, the hopelessness of our condition, and the sheer, ...read more

    Living While Waiting

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 5, 2025
     | 228 views

    Because the Day of the Lord will come suddenly, our anticipation of that Day must shape this day—so we strive to be holy, think rightly, watch carefully, and grow steadily.

    Introduction This morning we’re reading the final words of Peter’s final letter to the church. His burden is simple and weighty: that we live holy lives that honor the Lord Jesus and are not swept away by the immorality, false teaching, and scoffing around us. How do we do that in a world soaked ...read more

    You Before Yours

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 16, 2025
     | 117 views

    God desires the giver before the gift—when we first surrender our hearts to Him, every act of generosity, including financial giving, flows joyfully and becomes an overflow of grace.

    (God wants the giver before the gift) --- Introduction – Life Stirs Up Life Before we even open our Bibles, think about something amazing. The New Testament calls the church the body of Christ. Not a building. Not bricks and mortar. You and I are the church. Every part of a body matters. ...read more
