Sermons on Overflowing Grace:

Hang On To What You Have

Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 27, 2025

Faith is sustained not by intensity or perfection, but by hanging on to Christ’s grace when pressure, disappointment, and weariness pull at our trust.

He didn’t start out confused. He started out in love. You remember what that feels like—when faith is simple, when obedience feels like joy instead of effort, when the future seems open because God is clearly ahead of you. Prayer is natural. Scripture feels like bread. Service feels like oxygen. ...read more

Is Serving God A Sacrifice? Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Jul 6, 2025

“Sacrifice” for God is appropriate only when driven by joy. God must always remain the benefactor when we serve.

Review “Seeking” is the effort we put forth to fulfill longing and desire for God. And for seeking to work, God, rather than something else, must be the object of the desire and seeking, and the seeking must be earnest. Such earnestness comes in large measure from emotion – both negative and ...read more

Crazy For Jesus Series

Leaving The Old Behind

Contributed by Brian Williams on Jul 13, 2023

Jesus was saying that this Gospel, the Good News is incompatible with any and all other religious beliefs. It is exclusive and stands alone.

Can you imagine living in an environment where you are told that you are cursed by God, unloved, unacceptable, and a social outcast? As a result you would probably feel marginalized and rejected and have no clue about how to come to God in your current state. Many established religions today put ...read more

The Dying Thief Wo Found Salvation

Contributed by Bob Marcaurelle on Aug 29, 2025

We know for sure the criminal next to Jesus went to heaven. Here is how he did it.

Refresh My Heart

Contributed by Patty Groot on Sep 8, 2025

This sermon shows how Paul’s opening words to Philemon (vv. 1–7) model grace-filled leadership, reminding us that our reputation in Christ matters, forgiveness is the mark of maturity, and we are called to refresh others’ hearts with the same love we’ve received.

Sometimes the most powerful messages come in the smallest packages. That’s true in life, and it’s certainly true in the Bible. Philemon is the shortest letter Paul wrote, just 25 verses. You could read it in under two minutes. But in those 25 verses, Paul lays out a powerful, personal, and deeply ...read more

Levi’s bitter, violent life was transformed by God’s grace. His curse became a blessing, and his descendants faithfully served the Lord.

Introduction What actually determines things in life? Is it just luck? Is it karma? Is it fate? Does everything happen simply by chance or coincidence? Herbert Asquith was prime minister of England from 1908 to 1916. On one occasion he spent a weekend at an estate owned by the wealthy Rothschild ...read more

Breath Of God Or Copd?

Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 4, 2023

I believe the modern church is suffering from spiritual COPD; we’re not getting the Breath of life from God often enough to animate us, transform us, heal & renew us, and help us overcome. God's Breath is our source of life, gives us purpose, & power.

BREATH OF GOD OR COPD? Job 33:4 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A man wanted to be a salesman, but he stuttered very badly. Then he saw an ad for a job as a Bible salesman for the Bible Society, and he decided to apply. 2. At the interview, they heard him stutter and said, "We're sorry, ...read more

No Cross… No Crown

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 5, 2023

In our text today this is a conditional promise.

Notice the condition on which this promise is made. The Lord said, if we are faithful unto death, He would give us a CROWN OF LIFE. He did NOT say, “If you are faithful a few short weeks, months or years I will give thee a Crown of Life”. The promise is made to those who are faithful unto ...read more
