    Jesus enters into our pain and grief, weeping with us and offering hope through His resurrection power.

    Today, we're going to talk about a story from the Bible that shows us how Jesus brings hope even in the toughest times. We'll be looking at the story of Lazarus in John 11:1-44. But first, let's start with an object lesson that will help us understand the main idea of this message. (Hand out a ...read more

     | 1,342 views

    The Bible teaches us to make the most of our time because the days are evil. We should use our time wisely to do God's will. Jesus is our ultimate source of peace and we can learn from his example on how to manage our time.

    Today we're going to talk about something we all wish we had more of - time. We're always running out of it, aren't we? Between school, homework, sports, friends, and family, it feels like there's never enough time in the day. But did you know the Bible has a lot to say about time and how we use ...read more

    Prioritize Your Yeses Youth Sermon

     | 649 views

    Just like Jesus, we need to prioritize our commitments and accept that we can only do one thing at a time. By focusing on what truly matters, we can make the most of our time.

    First, let's look at Mark 1:29-38. After Jesus healed Peter's mom, everyone wanted a piece of him. But Jesus said, 'Nope, I've got other places to be.' He had a bigger mission - preaching in other villages. He knew what he was supposed to do and he stuck to it. So, here's the deal - we've got to ...read more

    Our pain in the wilderness is not wasted; God can use it for His glory and to bless others.

    Let's talk about something we all know a bit about - pain. Not just the "I stubbed my toe" kind of pain, but the deep, heart-wrenching stuff. The kind of pain that comes when life doesn't go as planned. You know, Joseph from the Bible knew a thing or two about pain. His brothers were so jealous of ...read more

    Understand the importance of wisdom in our lives, how to seek it from God, and how it can lead to prosperity and peace.

    Solomon was like the Einstein of his time, only second to Jesus. When he became king, he asked God for wisdom, and God was like, "Sure thing!" Solomon's wisdom brought a ton of good stuff to Israel. Let's imagine wisdom as this super cool, high-tech gadget. It's like the ultimate life-hack tool. It ...read more

    Jesus entrusted us as His servants to do His work and be obedient to the truth we’ve received. If He came today, what kind of servant would you be?

    I am called to manage God’s resources not consume them.

    My practical training to better understand my role as a steward of God’s resources started when Doreen and I bought a Medicine Shoppe Franchise way back in 1978. This purchase gave me an excellent working paradigm to apply to my future life as a steward. This was a store that had been open for ...read more

    In this sermon, we explore anger myths, anger truths, and anger management.

    Introduction: A. If I were to ask you, of all the human emotions you are capable of experiencing, which one seems to be the most difficult for you to cope with, my guess is that many of us would report that anger is the one that gives us the most trouble. 1. Anger is such a complex and challenging ...read more

    Three parables carrying one message: the lost sheep; the lost coin; and the Prodigal son.

    LOST AND FOUND. Luke 15. ‘Horror of horrors!’ proclaimed the scribes and Pharisees. The tax-collectors and ‘sinners’ were drawing near to hear the words of Jesus!
