    Regaining Your Cutting Edge

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 14, 2017
     | 18,650 views

    A prophet lost his axhead/ cutting edge and needed to recover it. It was the key to his growth. Problem was, it was borrowed: he was trying to overcome his hindrances to growth by a borrowed anointing! A special stick altered its properties. Find out why.

    REGAINING YOUR CUTTING EDGE 2 Kgs. 6:1-7 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A police officer saw a man dressed as a cowboy in the street, complete with huge stetson hat, spurs, and six shooters.

    The greatest miracle the church needs today is the miracle of growth. Even though only about one in five people in Canada attend church weekly, if our attitude is right with Jesus He will bless our service efforts and grow His chruch!

    Conversion does not mean arrival. It signals the beginning of a journey of growth. We are to be like Christ, and this growth requires disciplines.

    [Most of the thoughts in this sermon come from Dallas Willard’s book The Spirit of the Disciplines.] Eph 4:12 “…to prepare God’s people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up.” Matt 28:19-20 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name ...read more

    Why I Don't Have A "Vision" Or "5 Year Plan" For Our Church

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jun 13, 2018
     | 4,692 views

    This is an abbreviated sermon used after my annual pastor's report to the congregation explaining why we do not have a written "business plan" for church growth. Instead it lays out the 3 foundational steps the Lord has put in my heart as I serve here.

    If you would, please stand as we say together our memory Scripture for this quarter: Romans 12:4-5 “Just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.” ...read more

    An examination of the importance of and manner in which we are to wait on God in our lives.

    The saying goes: “Timing is everything.” That is so true. You see this to be obvious in the trauma operating room. The surgeon knows that to operate too quickly - before the patient’s vital signs are stabilized - will probably kill them on the table. But, he knows that to wait too long will ...read more

    God will encourage His servant to stand firm when opposition arises. This is demonstrated when Paul sought to leave Corinth as opposition arose. just so, God will encourage you when you are ready to throw in the towel in your own service.

    “After this Paul left Athens and went to Corinth. And he found a Jew named Aquila, a native of Pontus, recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to leave Rome. And he went to see them, and because he was of the same trade he stayed with them and ...read more

    This sermon encourages believers to choose the path of righteousness, delight in God's law, and flourish like a tree planted by streams of water.

    Beloved, as we gather together today in the sanctuary of our Lord, we find ourselves standing at the crossroads of life, where the path of righteousness and the path of wickedness diverge. We stand, as it were, at the precipice of choice, where the echo of our decisions will reverberate through the ...read more

    God enables the growth which obtains the prize.

    Scripture Introduction Some say that you know you are old when you quit looking forward and only look back. Maybe some truth hides in that slogan?

    Why We Are Here

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on May 10, 2021
     | 4,229 views

    I read an article recently about church planting and the author talked about all of the humanitarian things that result from doing so. It got me to thinking: is church planting what Jesus really wants if it’s going to following the humanitarian model?

    The message today is titled “Why we are here.” I’m not asking a question, as you can see, but making a statement of purpose. Now I’m not talking about why we are here at this church. Well, at least not directly. I’m talking about why those of us who call ourselves Christian, who are born again and ...read more
