    He Calls You By Name

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 30, 2025
     | 154 views

    John’s resurrection account reveals a quiet but profound truth: belonging comes before understanding. This message invites weary believers to release the pressure to prove their faith and rediscover a resurrection life rooted in being known, named, and kept—while still on the road.

    Introduction John tells us that Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark. That detail matters. Not because it is poetic, but because it is honest. This is not the hour of confidence or clarity. This is the hour when grief wakes before reason does. The hour when the body ...read more

    How Firm A Foundation

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 10, 2026
     | 102 views

    The Christian life is not about regaining control, but about learning where to stand when control was never ours to begin with.

    There are moments in history when people realize—often quietly rather than dramatically—that something fundamental has shifted. Not because life has ended or collapsed completely, but because assumptions that once felt solid have been exposed. The structures we trusted may still stand, but they ...read more

    The Way Of Escape

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 5, 2025
     | 256 views

    Temptation confronts every believer, but God’s faithfulness always provides an exit—grace stronger than sin, hope greater than failure.

    “No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.” --- The Common Struggle Every believer knows what it ...read more

    Before You Say Amen

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 22, 2025
     | 132 views

    Prayer becomes heavy when it turns into performance. Jesus calls us back to honest, relational prayer—where pretending ends and real communion with God begins.

    There are few subjects in the church that create more confusion—and more quiet frustration—than prayer. Not because people don’t believe in it. Most Christians believe deeply in prayer. They would defend it without hesitation. They know it matters. They know it’s essential. They know it’s supposed ...read more

    The Passion Puzzle Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Dec 29, 2025
     | 60 views

    Over the course of His time with the disciples, Jesus has been giving clues to help the disciples understand the grand picture of the Gospel.

    There is something quite interesting about putting a puzzle together. A single piece provides a little information, but when connected with many or all of the other pieces, the picture comes into view. The Apostle Paul has referred to the gospel as a “mystery.” Just as puzzles need to be ...read more

    Tearing Down The Strongholds PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 9, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 136 views

    The sermon encourages believers to rely on God’s strength and prayer to overcome inner battles, renew their minds, and stand firm in spiritual warfare.

    Some mornings feel like you wake up to a battle you didn’t see coming. The coffee is warm, but the thoughts are loud. A whisper worries you. A memory needles you. A headline makes your heart heavy. Your calendar says Tuesday, but your soul says “tired.” Ever been there? The pressure you can’t put ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 149 views

    The sermon calls us to seek God above all else, finding rest, confidence, and purpose in His presence amid life’s storms and uncertainties.

    Some days the heart feels like a hummingbird in a hurricane—fluttering, fragile, and longing for a safe branch. We scroll and scurry and strive, yet the soul still whispers for something steady. We want a place to rest. We want a Person to hold us. We long for something clear when everything else ...read more

    Sex sells...are you buying? Sex is an every-day, all-day, in-your-face issue. What are we to do?

    Forgiving The Unforgivable Series

    Contributed by Brian Bill on Apr 2, 2003
    based on 216 ratings
     | 113,545 views

    “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” The Cross is the only place we can find forgiveness. It doesn’t matter what we’ve done, or how often we’ve done it, we can be forgiven - not because we deserve it, but because we don’t.

    Leaders have an obligation to instruct others and not cause people to stumble. This is only possible when we stand in awe of God’s name.

    Leading Others Upward There are some things that only a mom can teach… My mother taught me about anticipation: “Just wait until your father gets home!” My mother taught me about medical science: “If you don’t stop crossing your eyes, they’re going to stay that way.” My mother taught me about ...read more
