    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Jun 19, 2023
     | 1,593 views

    Are we living in a way that represents His glory and His suffering for others to see and be encouraged by? Or, are we living in a way that detracts from what Jesus has done - so much so that we cannot be effective witnesses for His grace and love?

     | 8,933 views

    In the following sermon we are going to examine Acts 4:1-22 and conclude that through the power of the Holy Spirit ordinary Christians are to have courage that they can overcome their Sanhedrin and effectively profess that salvation is only found in the Lord Jesus Christ.

    Courage to Proclaim the Good News Acts 4:1-22 Online Sermon: http://www.mckeesfamily.com/?page_id=3567 Ever wonder what keeps believers from obeying the Great Commission to “go and make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19-20)?

    The Tale Of Two Cities

     | 4,627 views

    The message this Sunday will look at our attitude towards God’s word, and how we approach it, because that is what determines its effectiveness in our lives. We will look at this through Paul’s missionary travels to Thessalonica and Berea.

    The Tale of Two Cities Acts 17:1-15 ** Watch at: https://youtu.be/XGSvRuwVCGo Now, when I came up with the title of today’s message, my immediate reaction was towards the book written by Charles Dickens back in 1879, and the two cities were Paris and London.

     | 7,277 views

    If you are a Christian, your testimony — the story of how God stepped in and changed you through His Son — is a direct reflection of the undisputable, life-changing power of the gospel. It’s one of the most effective tools in our evangelism toolbox.

    TITLE: THE ANATOMY OF A TESTIMONY SCRIPTURE: GALATIANS 6:10-17 When God began to reveal Himself to the world, He did not send down bookshelves filled with outlines – theologies – lectures - he began with a story. As a matter of fact, He created a huge picture of His love, which is creation, and ...read more

    Time Spent In God's Word

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Aug 7, 2024
     | 1,343 views

    I wonder how much time each of you spend in God's Word each day. These numbers show a troubling imbalance in our lack of time spent in the Scripture and its damaging effect on our spiritual vitality.

    If we took a poll here in our church, I wonder how much time each of you spend in God's Word each day. Research shows that the average person is exposed to anywhere between 4,000 and 10,000 messages a day. You are probably thinking, "No way do I receive that many messages." But ...read more
