    Do We Think Jesus Is Coming Back Or Not?

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Nov 22, 2006
    based on 16 ratings
     | 6,413 views

    This sermon encourages us to watch, to wait, to be alert, to be on our guard, and not to worry. This is an encouragement to remember and believe that Jesus will indeed return with great power and glory, and to remember it whatever our current circumstance

    If I were to hand out confidential voting papers on which you can vote either ‘Yes’ or ‘No’, I wonder what the results would be …(long pause). You want to know what the question is, don’t you! It’s this: Will Jesus return? Is He coming back? Yes or no. Mark chapter 13 is not easy to understand, ...read more

    Paradigms Of Prayer

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 2, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,380 views

    We pray for the glory of God. We consider that it is He who we have sinned against. We pray in solidarity with those for whom we pray. We don't try to restrict God.

    PARADIGMS OF PRAYER. 1. Solidarity with those for whom we pray (Exodus 32:30-32) Moses presents us with an example of true, thoroughgoing, intercessory prayer. This is Moses’ prayer after the infamous ‘Golden Calf’ incident, when the people had committed idolatry at the foot of Mount Sinai ...read more

    It is not the storm that gets us it is the reaction to the storm help us to follow these guidelines when the storms of life come

    WHAT TO DO WHEN THE STORM COMES Mark 4: 35-41 - As evening came, Jesus said to his disciples, Let’s cross over to the other side of the lake. So, they took Jesus in the boat and started out. But soon a bad storm came up. High waves were breaking into the boat, and it began to fill with ...read more

    Reconciled Series

    Contributed by Kevin Ruffcorn on Aug 6, 2013
     | 4,875 views

    We are reconciled—brought into a right relationship—in all aspects of our lives through the life, death, resurrection of Jesus.

    Colossians 1:15-28. "Reconciled" INTRODUCTION I did quite a bit of traveling this past week, in parts of this country with which I was unfamiliar. Thankfully, I knew where I needed to go, and I had my trusty GPS "Gidget" to show me the way. I can't imagine what a mess I would have been in ...read more

    Disciple's Prayer Series

    Contributed by Paul Clemente on Feb 16, 2014
     | 4,735 views

    How are we to pray?

    We are learning to pray from our Lord Jesus Christ; especially the prayer “Lead us not into temptation”. Jesus tells us that there is a wrong way of praying. Many of us get frustrated about our prayers not being answered when the problem is we are praying the wrong way. Last week we ...read more

    Christian Character Of Stephen The Martyr

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 10, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,000 views

    The would-be servant of God, whether waiting at table, ushering at the door, distributing to the poor, or preaching the gospel, must be of a blameless character and reputation.

    THE CHRISTIAN CHARACTER OF STEPHEN THE MARTYR. Acts 6:1-15. It is interesting to commemorate one particular saint who gave his name to a Street, a Road, a Church, and a bench (!) in Norwich, and I dare say in other cities too. Stephen is rightly acknowledged as the first Christian martyr, a ...read more

    The Christian And Sin

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 1, 2014
    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,124 views

    So what is to be the Christian's relationship to sin? Strictly speaking, he should not have such a relationship!

    THE CHRISTIAN AND SIN. 1 John 3:1-10. “Behold,” says John. Pause for thought and reflection. For it is indeed a wonderful demonstration of God's love that “we” should be called the sons of God (1 John 3:1). This was not what we deserved, but as we know from other Scriptures, it was ‘while ...read more

    Temptations? Series

    Contributed by Paul Clemente on Sep 28, 2015
     | 4,961 views

    How do we deal with temptations which always creep into our lives?

    We continue our study of the Letter by James in the New Testament. Last week we noted that no matter who that James was, God spoke though him. All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness… 2 Timothy 3:16! We worship with God’s Word and ...read more

    Like A Hen On A Cue Ball

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Feb 19, 2020
     | 2,346 views

    Why is it that our prayers seem to go unnoticed by God? This is a short devotional.

    Since tonight is a time that we devote to lifting our praises and our prayer requests to God, let’s think about what we ask God for. I am sure that everyone of us has had a prayer that we prayed and asked God for some kind of help, and it seemed like our prayer was never heard. Have you ever had ...read more

    The Water And The Temple Series

     | 2,971 views

    Those are the healing waters that can always save those who are soaked with them, precisely because this sacrament is the visible sign of the power of Christ, who is the real minister of every baptism.

    Tuesday of the 4th week of Lent 2020 Water I always recommend to those who can make pilgrimage that they take a week or more with a Christian guide in the Holy Land–Israel and Jordan–so that they can understand the people and places we read about in the Sacred Scriptures. The Christians living in ...read more

    "I Just Want Bread"

    Contributed by Ronnie Miller on Jul 27, 2011
     | 3,711 views

    It's Bible verses we have heard many times but, in this day of politically correctness... the true meaning and purpose sometimes gets lost

    Bible says in John 6:35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; Jesus also said in John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

    When God Delays Series

    Contributed by Kevin Ruffcorn on Apr 13, 2011
    based on 4 ratings
     | 13,067 views

    One of the hardest things for Christians to do is to wait on God. The story of the resuscitation of Lazarus tells us many important things as we wait on God in what we think is a hopeless situation.

    John 11:1-45 “When God Delays” INTRODUCTION One of the most difficult situations in the Christian life is when God remains silent to our prayers. Faye and I have good friends who have two teenagers. Their son has been diagnosed with ADD, and he has been treated for this ...read more

    Joy ... A Short Christmas Vignette

    Contributed by Justin Owens on Dec 24, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,253 views

    A brief vignette about joy as part of a jointly held Christmas service in which four different pastors each spoke of either the Joy, Hope, Peace, or Love of Christmas

    Joy – a Christmas Vignette I. Introduction A couple of weeks ago Pastor Gary asked me if I would be willing to speak on one of the “four themes of Christmas.” I was lucky enough to be the first to be asked that, so I was able to pick my topic. I chose “Joy.” To illustrate this, I want to jump ...read more
