Children Of The Resurrection

Contributed by Phillip Smith on Jul 7, 2025

During troubling times, man reads things into the events happening and thinks they see apocalyptic inferences. Many speak of the coming End of Time. Often these spoken inferences are accepted as common understandings. Mankind begins to wonder about life after death.

1 Man that is born of a woman is of few days and full of trouble. 2 He cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down: he fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not. 5 Seeing his days are determined, the number of his months are with thee, thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass; 10 But ...read more

Sermon # 3 - Going The Wrong Way Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 28, 2024

What is God’s purpose for establishing the church? Are we fulfilling this purpose or running in the wrong direction like Jonah did? As a church may we realize our purpose and fulfill it at all cost.

So he paid the fare and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish, away from the presence of the LORD.” (ESV) The word of the Lord we saw in the ...read more

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Apr 17, 2024

In Jesus Holy Name April 21, 2024 Text: Psalm 23:1-3, John 10:11 Redeemer “My Good Shepherd” Psalm 23, may be the most familiar and favorite of all the psalms. The affirmation of God as our good shepherd implies a truth that touches a deep place within our souls. “Even ...read more
