If you want to participate in the great wedding feast to come, bring your lamp and join the bridal party; bring some oil, inviting God’s Spirit to dwell within; then watch for your Bridegroom to come at any time.

They wanted to give their family and friends plenty of time to prepare, but they worried that even with all that lead time, some of them would not be able to attend. They ...read more

Can A Person Know Jesus Intimately?

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Sep 6, 2021

I believe that the essential issue in the church today is the need to grow in intimacy with Jesus, the Creator God of all things.

God desires to have a personal, intimate, loving, dynamic, and powerful relationship with every person on the planet. WHAT IS INTIMACY? To develop an intimate relationship with Jesus, we need to define what that looks like. Some have said that intimacy means "in-to-me-see" and begins ...read more

When God Calls Your Name: Martha Series

Contributed by Scott Bayles on Sep 11, 2021

How would you respond if God called your name not once, but twice? In the Bible, God calls plenty of people often by name, but I’ve only found seven times where God calls out someone’s name twice in a row. In each instance, what follows is a life-changing encounter with the God of creation.

When God Calls Your Name… Twice: Martha Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 8/21/2016 For the last few of weeks, we’ve been talking about how you might respond if God called your name—not just once, but twice.

The Sacrifices God Is Pleased With Series

Contributed by Isaiah Banjo on Nov 30, 2020

It is “through Jesus” that your sacrifices can be acceptable. Anything short of that is totally unacceptable. The only person God told that he is pleased with was Jesus. When a man does not listen to Jesus, such a man cannot please God.

Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of Praise – the fruit of lips that confess his name. And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices, God is pleased. (NIV) Hebrews 13:15-16 Quite a lot to identify in this scripture. 1. The ...read more

May The Weak Be Strong

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Jan 3, 2021

The following sermon is going to review 1 Corinthians 1:26-31 to help us remember that God chooses the foolish, weak, lowly, and despised of this world to serve Him and in doing so shames the wise and strong so that boasting of righteousness, holiness and redemption would only be done in the Lord!

Why Hope? Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 4, 2021

Peter calls on the Christians in his day to have hope much like Martin Luther King Jr. did in his day. Peter says, “I command you to be hopeful though you are suffering greatly.”

Sometimes our hope is invisible. The last words of dying people have always fascinated me. They are so revealing of a person's heart and soul. John Wilkes Booth who assassinated President Lincoln said only two words at his death: “Useless. Useless.” These are words of hopelessness. Fox News ...read more
