    Taking a military analogy off of the word "Captain," this sermon discusses the courage and bravery that Jesus displayed and the respect we should accord Him

    Big Idea: Jesus earned the right to be called our Captain by his courage under fire. - Hebrews 2:10. - Jesus is called the “captain of our salvation” in this verse and I want this morning to pursue the military analogy that that puts forward. - “Captain” is the Greek word “archegos” which means ...read more

    Joy Is Restored Series

    Contributed by Thomas Clawser on Dec 17, 2017
     | 11,898 views

    Sorrow is but for a time. The power of prayer, memories of God’s past healing and His loving-kindness sustain Israel. God heals the pain of the present in the same manner as He has healed the pain of the past.

    Joy is the emotion of great delight or happiness caused by something exceptionally good or satisfying: it is keen pleasure, or elation. Joy is more elusive, subtle, and nuanced than happiness. We can manipulate circumstances to our own advantage to obtain what we think will bring happiness, or ...read more

    A Christmas Eve message talking about our need of unwrapping the wonderful gift of God's Son, Jesus Christ.

    Unwrapping Jesus It’s only a couple of hours before Christmas, and besides all the hustle and bustle that surrounds this time, despite the rude drivers on the road and the harried sales clerks, most everyone enjoys this time of year, especially the preparations and decorations. We enjoy this time ...read more

    Jesus is the priceless shepherd because of our needs, and we can go to Him because of His passion for us.

    Key verse, 11. 1. His Diety: "I am", the old testament name for God. 2. His Desirability: "Good", (Kalos) beautiful, good, virtuous, valuable. 3. His Dedication: "Shepherd", (Not an easy life. Difficult, lonely, and painful suffering). I. The Danger: He gives His life for His sheep. (11-13) * A ...read more

    The Crowd That Didn’t Follow Jesus

    Contributed by Martin Ellgar on Nov 1, 2014
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,044 views

    A perspective on Mark 5: 21-43. If we are serious about restoring our own life and the life of this congregation then we need to hear the reports about Jesus healing others.

    Mark 5: 21-43 The Crowd That Didn’t Follow Jesus There are three miracles in today’s Gospel text. Can you name them? 1. The woman with the issue of blood healed. 2. Jairus’ daughter raised. 3. And perhaps, “The crowd that did not follow Jesus.” Can you imagine the ...read more

    The Truest Meaning Of Christmas

    Contributed by Jerry Stephens on Dec 3, 2014
     | 4,162 views

    At one time or another, most of us have had the experience of being on the outside looking in. More than anything else, for me Christmas is a celebration of inclusion and acceptance and restoration.

    Of all the “true meanings of Christmas,” this is perhaps the truest. When I was a boy, my relatively non-religious family had a Christmas Eve tradition. We’d have a formal, dress-up dinner, and then we’d sit together to talk, tell stories and perhaps read the Christmas ...read more

     | 6,199 views

    A perspective on Luke 13: 10-17. Today, wherever you find Jesus in the life of his disciples, there you will find that the people are delighted with all the wonderful things done in his name.

    Luke 13: 10-17 Jesus, Lord of the Sabbath The crippled woman was one of many on a long list of people that Jesus had healed during his ministry on earth. The text is more than just a reminder of Jesus’ divine ability to heal and his compassion towards all people. There are signals and ...read more

    “And behold, a lawyer stood up to put him to the test, saying, Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” (Luke 10:25)

    This parable is well known and popular among many people even among those with no access to a Bible. The background to this parable was an attempt by the Jewish religious leaders to counter the authority of Christ and assert their own authority. This, however, was impossible as Jesus always ...read more
