     | 2,167 views

    When you couldn’t reach up to God, He reached down to you, and He invites you to meet Him in the darkness, away from any idol, at the foot of the cross.

    Leighton Ford, the husband of Billy Graham’s youngest sister, Jean, tells the story of a Russian cosmonaut. He came back from space and said, “Some people say God lives out there. I looked around, and I didn't see any God out there.” Billy Graham's wife, Ruth, said he looked in the wrong ...read more

    Exceeding Expectations Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jun 16, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,446 views

    Jesus said that our righteousness must exceed that of the scribes and Pharisees. This means that He wants us to exceed the spiritual expectations prescribed by the Law; as we are to strive for excellence in our walk with God.

    I have entitled our message, “Exceeding Expectations,” and I want to begin by sharing a true story. A contractor in Mexico was hired to build a Catholic Church, but he used cheap materials in order to make more money. He reasoned that the quality of the materials did not matter, so long as the ...read more

    Correcting Our Double Vision Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Oct 13, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,950 views

    This message addresses the problem of spiritual double vision; being focused on the things of God and the things of the world simultaneously. Jesus talks about treasure in heaven or earth; being full or light or darkness; and pursuing God or money.

    I have entitled our message this morning, “Correcting Our Double Vision.” Double vision, according to Yale Medicine, is understood as being when someone sees two of the “same” image instead of one.(1) But today, I want us to think of double vision as seeing two “separate” images at the same time. ...read more

    Therefore, Do Not Worry Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Nov 7, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,375 views

    Worry causes us to feel as though we’re gasping for breath and walking around half-dead. Worry zaps our life and drains our strength. In order to have true life in the Lord, we must place all our cares in the hands of Jesus Christ.

    Our primary passage today will be from Matthew chapter 6; but from time to time, I will reference Luke 12:22-32, which is a gospel parallel, or what we might call Luke’s recollection of events. E. Stanley Jones, a missionary to India in the early 1900’s, stated, “I live better by faith and ...read more

    A sermon for adults on God's expectation for us to be different from the world.

    Luke 5:17-26 November 19, 2023 a.m. I haven’t mentioned this from the pulpit but Rachel, Abbie, Silas and myself got a chance to go to the United Kingdom a few weeks ago. It was kind of a dream trip for us. We found some super cheap, bargain bin, thrift store priced plane tickets, ...read more

    In this sermon, we consider the back story of the letters to the Thessalonians - the founding of the church. It's tumultuous beginning helps us to understand a bit of the environment into which the new church was planted and some of the ongoing struggles they faces.

    Pre-quals Every story has a back story. We may not always gain insight into the back story, but there are things impact characters and cultures.
