    Give Thankfulness With A Grateful Heart; Why?

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Jan 24, 2014
     | 5,343 views

    The apostle Paul always gives thanks in his prayers and so thanksgiving needs to be a major part of our prayers. Jesus did it, and so did Paul, and look at their ministries, and the word “thanks” used here comes from the Greek word “Eucharist”.

    Deuteronomy 30:9-14 Psalm 25:1-9 Colossians 1:1-14 Luke 10:25-37 Summary: The apostle Paul always gives thanks in his prayers and so thanksgiving needs to be a major part of our prayers. Jesus did it, and so did Paul, and look at their ministries, and the word “thanks” used here ...read more

    Paul’s second journey had barely concluded when he set out again to strengthen and encourage the churches. In his third journey, we find a few interesting stories from which we can learn about how we ought to live as Christians today.

    Introduction Video Ill.: Paul’s Third Missionary Journey - Graphe This morning, we are continuing our summer road trip, going along with Paul on his journeys as recorded in Acts. We started by joining Paul and Barnabas on their first journey as they traveled throughout the province of Asia, ...read more

    No Life On Mars

    Contributed by John Gaston on Feb 1, 2023
     | 2,336 views

    When Paul went to "Mars" Hill in Athens he found no spiritual life there. Though Greece had made a great contribution to the world's philosophy and thought, it's offering for salvation was empty. But there was life on Mars when Paul left!

    NO LIFE ON MARS Acts 17:22-31 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Today I was at the hospital with someone and they remarked how that when they went in for surgery last time, the doctor drew a big picture on their side so he wouldn’t operate on the wrong side. With all that education, you'd wonder how ...read more

    Sermon 13: Christian Life And Ministry Are A Team Effort Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Jan 12, 2026
     | 105 views

    As the apostle Paul concludes his letter to the church at Colossae, he mentions 11 people in the last 12 verses. From this we notice that Paul was someone who knew how dependent he was on others for his own wellbeing and for the advance of the Gospel. Christian life and ministry are a team effort.

    Bringing people to repentance is tough work. God has a way, and it leads to salvation. Working through compicated relationship factors Paul shares a great success story here.

    From Heavenly Hurts to Healing Hearts 2 Corinthians 7 What did it take for God to bring you to repentance? Right in the heart of this chapter we discover a great truth of God about repentance that leads to salvation. We’ve been studying this letter of Paul to Corinth and have noticed how he ...read more

    Divine connections are God's instruments for fulfilling our destiny. Ruth's connection with Boaz changed her life forever. David needed Jonathan, Joseph needed the butler, and Paul needed Barnabas.

    THE POWER OF DIVINE CONNECTIONS By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Ruth 2:8-10 "Then Boaz said to Ruth, ‘You will listen, my daughter, will you not?

    Paul teaches us about being Christlike, whilst the Gospel teach us about the corruption in Israel. Where do we stand in our faith when we consider the two scriptures?

    In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen.

    When Jesus told us we needed to tell others about our faith in Him, did He leave us to do it all by ourselves? Or does God help us when we witness?

    About 350 years before Christ was born in Bethlehem, there was a man they called Alexander the Great. Over a period of 15 years Alexander the Great was in almost constant warfare and conquered most of known world.

     | 16,512 views

    We live in an age of convenience. There's nothing wrong with convenience per se. The danger is when we look for a Christianity of convenience rather than sacrifice and commitment. This sermon looks at "convenience Christianity" from several angles.

    A Religion of Convenience Chuck Sligh April 7, 2013 TEXT: 2 Samuel 24:18-25 – “And Gad came that day to David, and said unto him, Go up, rear an altar unto the LORD in the threshingfloor of Araunah the Jebusite. 19 And David, according to the saying of Gad, went up as the LORD ...read more

    An Eager Unashamed Debtor For The Gospel

     | 6,672 views

    Paul tells the believers at Rome why he is so eager to visit them; because he is a debtor to and is not ashamed of the Gospel.

    I think that most people want to visit the capital city of their homeland. I remember when my parents took the family to London when we were in our teens. To visit the capital was quite an occasion, especially nearly 50 years ago when travelling wasn’t so easy as it is now. It was quite something ...read more

    Paul discloses a progression in the Christian pilgrimage to the Ephesian believers in that they had Heard the Truth then Believed in Jesus and went on to be Sealed by the Spirit.

    HEARD, BELIEVED, SEALED Today we celebrate the Day of Pentecost. What a wonderful day it was for the first disciples of the risen, ascended and glorified Jesus.
