We Are The Disruptors

Contributed by Sean Dees on Feb 7, 2020

“These that have turned the world upside down”, I got to ask; what exactly is wrong with that? Think about that statement and how absurd it sounds.

(2) And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three sabbath days reasoned with them out of the scriptures, (3) Opening and alleging, that Christ must needs have suffered, and risen again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom I preach unto you, is Christ. (4) And some of them believed, ...read more

4 Rs Of The Millennium

Contributed by Bobby Brewer on Jul 24, 2023

There’s lots of material available discussing the signs preceding Christ’s return but what exactly will happen when He does return? Not only did Jesus personally promise that He would return (Jn. 14:1-4, Acts 1:11) but that upon doing so, He would rule and reign.

Will Christians Go Through The Tribulation Period? (Vii) Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Feb 15, 2021

Message explores the scriptural strength/weakness of the POSTTRIBULATION Rapture position. That is compared with the Pretribulation and Midtribulation positions.

This is the seventh message exploring Scripture for an answer to one question: Will Christians go through the tribulation period. It is not an easy question to answer because there is no place in the Bible where we are specifically told when the rapture of the church will occur. We are certainly ...read more

The Upper Class Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 26, 2021

It is hard for modern American Christians to get their minds open to the mind of Christ on this issue because it goes against the grain of our culture. The New Testament, however, is loaded with teachings about being servants.

When soldiers for the 6th Massachusetts Militia were attacked, and many were wounded at the start of the Civil War, they were brought to Washington, D. C. Clara Barton had been a teacher in Massachusetts, and she recognized some of the wounded soldiers as her former students. She went to the ...read more

Mini-Series: Seasons Of Spiritual & Physical Expansions - The Jabez Factors To Expansion (Part 1: An Introduction)

Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Mar 9, 2020

Jabez represents anyone who is going through difficulties in life. Maybe he is humiliated by family, called pain by his mother, and deserted by father. He seems to have no property, no cash and no future. In that desperation, desperate prayer comes in and everything changes.

What You Get When You Give

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Aug 15, 2011

What happens when you give of your time, talents, and money? Many ministries teach that you will receive a material blessing for material giving. I think they completely miss the mark. Paul, in this chapter, sets out a wonderful pattern of the true result

Last time we talked about the motivation behind giving, and the process for how to give: it comes from the word “generosity” which means simplicity, sincerity, and singleness. We give who we are, and what we have, back to the Lord who owns it all, for Him to take our simple gifts given ...read more

Stopping The Sun Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Feb 28, 2016

God is the Warrior who fights for His people. When we're operating on our own, we accomplish what talent and education and money can do. When we're walking with God, we accomplish what God can do.

Bust-A-Move

Contributed by Dennis Lee on May 7, 2018

This sermon looks at our need to allow the Holy Spirit to move into our lives and into the church so we can move up into the gifts and talents given to us by the Holy Spirit so that we can move out as a church into our community and the world.

Bust-A-Move Years ago there was a phrase called, “Bust-A Move.” It is a dancing term, more along the lines of break dancing. But it also means to get moving, which is what we need to be doing as believers and as a church, because time is short. And so today I’d like to look at how we are to ...read more
