    There are always two categories of people anywhere – those who seek God for personal gain and the ones who seek God for who He really is. Which group do we belong to?

    We remind ourselves that this series of messages are based on Act 11:21“And the hand of the Lord was with them: and a great number believed, and turned unto the Lord.” (KJV) The Lord’s hand is a powerful hand, a hand that helps, a hand that exalts us, and His hand is at work in all areas of our ...read more

    Sermon # 36 - Learning To Forgive Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 20, 2024
     | 518 views

    Jonah was happy to receive God’s forgiveness for his disobedience, but was unhappy when God did the same for the people of Nineveh who repented of their sins. Jesus paid with his life for our forgiveness, and God expects us to extend this same forgiveness to those who wrong us in any way.

    For our meditation we will study Jonah 4:1, “Jonah was very unhappy about this and became angry.” (GNB) When the prophet Jonah preached to the people in the city of Nineveh, they took his words seriously, repented, and had a change of heart. God relented from punishing the people of Nineveh, and ...read more

     | 4,022 views

    In our faith journey, we often face weariness, doubt, and discouragement. We may feel as if our strength is failing, and the challenges before us seem insurmountable. But amid these struggles, Isaiah reminds us that God is always near, ready to renew our strength and empower us to overcome.

    Waiting on God's Strength ? Isaiah 40:27–31 (ESV) ? 27 Why do you say, O Jacob, and speak, O Israel, "My way is hidden from the Lord, and my right is disregarded by my God"? 28 Have you not known? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the ...read more

    If you want to find joy in a world of pain: trust God who saves you; fear God who loves you: and serve God who helps you. To put it simply: “Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up” (James 4:10, NIV).

    Two years ago (2016), Russell Moore walked into a local bookstore where he overheard a man talk about why he hated Christmas music. Moore started to feel like he might be in the presence of the Grinch, but then the man explained why he found the music so bad… It was boring. “Christmas is boring ...read more

    God took what man cannot overcome, sin and death, and showed man that He could overcome it! What is in your life that you have not been able to conquer? Allow God to show you His power!

    With Jonah’s new purpose he is about to be used mightily. Do you desire to be used by God, but feel trapped in circumstances?

    We are looking at Jonah’s prayer as he prayed to God from an unlikely place, the stomach of a fish. To pray we must have faith in God. Sometimes we say there are no atheists in foxholes. Now we find out from Jonah that there are no atheists in fish bellies. Can you imagine what it would be like ...read more

    Christmas Day: Name That Tune!

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Dec 22, 2007

     | 9,725 views

    This all-age talk for Christmas Day is based around a game of ’Name that Tune’. Each of the 5 tunes, once guessed, help to build up the sermon which ends asking people to invite Jesus into their lives if they’ve not already done so.

    (The big idea: The point of this all-age sermon is that Jesus is totally unique! There is no-one like him. He alone reveals God to humanity and he alone reveals God’s plans for us. Just like a piece of music the more we listen to it and get to know it the more its unique qualities become obvious. ...read more
