    No one loves the church the way Jesus does. In Ephesians 5, Paul tells us six ways Jesus showed his love for his bride--the church.

    Please open your Bibles to Ephesians 5, as we begin a new series called “I Love My Church.” You know, our lives are basically made up of two different kinds of places. There are places we have to go, and there are places we get to go. School. That’s a have to go place, isn’t it? Although, after ...read more

    Unshared Unrivaled Unequaled

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 10, 2025
     | 182 views

    Christ alone is the unshared, unrivaled, unequal Rock; surrender means stepping off the throne of self and letting Him reign today.

    There’s a certain comfort, isn’t there, in imagining that somewhere out there is a man who carries the weight of spiritual certainty on his shoulders. He sits robed, enthroned, vested in centuries of tradition and expectation. His words ripple across continents. His gestures become symbols. His ...read more

    Is God's Word Strange To You? PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 6, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 115 views

    The sermon urges us to embrace God’s Word even when it challenges us, reminding us true faith means letting God, not ourselves, define truth.

    Some words woo us with comfort; others confront us with change. When the Lord speaks, His words carry weight that wakes us up. We sense His sentences brushing the dust off our Bibles and the haze off our hearts. Sometimes the pages feel prickly, passages puzzle us, and precepts press against our ...read more

    The sermon calls us to embody humility, patience, and love, fostering unity and peace within the church as a reflection of Christ’s grace.

    If you’ve ever stood on a shoreline at sunrise, you know how the early light gathers and glows until everything looks new again. That’s what grace does among God’s people. It brightens faces, softens voices, steadies steps. It turns crowded rooms into caring homes. And on days when worries pile ...read more

    What Keeps A Church From Growing?

    based on 65 ratings
     | 7,749 views

    Often we want to see church growth, but have we looked to see what we need to do to sustain growth?

    I have asked myself the question over the past two years, what is it that has kept the churches from having sustained growth, what has kept them from keeping pastors for any length of time, what is it that has such a vise over Northeastern Washington preventing the excitement and revival other ...read more

    The side of God that many ignore or pretend not to know.

    Turn up the Heat I was thinking the other day about the way people think of God and I received a message which is quite strong. I say that it is quite strong because we all have an idea or concept of how God is. We all have the concept that He is willing to forgive us, and that He always has His ...read more
