    Putting It All Together Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 5, 2022
     | 2,304 views

    It's nonsense to build our lives on a lie, but people do it. God calls us to build on a foundation of truth.

    There is nothing quite so destructive as a lie. No one wants to be lied to. It is nothing short of betrayal. And no one wants to be lied about. It is an ugly and contemptuous act. The Bible traces our worst problems back to a lie. The serpent, remember, asked the woman whether it was true what he ...read more

    In his farewell speech Paul advises the leaders at Ephesus how to become good leaders of the flock.

    Imagine after spending nine years in missionary work being asked by God to leave your ministry area to go to a place where persecution and then prison are guaranteed! Instead of being concerned of his own welfare Paul was genuinely concerned for the leaders of the church at Ephesus. He spent ...read more

    " A Fruit Called Goodness"

    Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Oct 7, 2021
     | 2,226 views

    Third in the series based on the "Fruits of the Spirit". Being Good is not the same as "goodness". Goodness is about the character trait of righteousness.

    In Jesus Holy Name October 10, 2021 Text: Galatians 5:22-23 “A Fruit Called Goodness” 3rd in the series All week I was wondering if this is a foolish topic. Every parent, every grandparent, every teacher knows what it means to be “good”. To be “good” is simply ...read more

    Defilement Comes From Within Series

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 22, 2021
     | 3,666 views

    It is not the food you eat or religious observation you practice that enables you to claim that you are right with God. Your attitude, behavior, and response to His commands show whether or not your life is defiled before Him.

    Worship is supposed to come from a grateful heart and mind, focused on how God's mercy and grace has taken us off of the road to hell and by the redemptive work of Jesus Christ on our behalf, placed us on the narrow road leading to eternal life. Our submission to Him as Lord and Savior, ...read more

    The question today is “Who is our role model?”

    Sports figures, rock and roll stars, movie stars are all some of the most popular. If you could pick any role model, who would you pick? First of all, we must find out what we desire most. In Psalm 78:7-8, we are told to set our hope in God. What if I was given the job of influencing others on ...read more

    I Dare You! Series

     | 9,548 views

    Courage doesn’t mean we’re not afraid. It means we do what we know is the right thing to do even though we’re afraid.

    What does “I Dare You!” mean? Sometimes good, sometimes bad. Whenever someone dares us to do something or be something, it means they want us to do something that’s hard for us to do. Story of “The Cat and the Mice” by Aesop… Mice had a problem… Q: Why was the young mouse’s suggestion a good ...read more

    The sermon is a kickoff to our VBS with the same theme. The idea is that the characters of the bible were significant to God in their development before him. We used CAR names to remind us of certain bible characters.
