     | 5,477 views

    God’s call to take the journey to worship the newborn king isn’t just for those born to privilege, or those born in the church. It isn’t just for pastors, scholars, and religious leaders. No, God’s call to worship is for anyone who will listen.

    OPENING STORY An old king sat uncomfortably on his throne, fingernails dug into well-worn grooves in the wood as he waited nervously for the mysterious travelers to approach. All Jerusalem was abuzz with the rumors that these men were searching for a new heir which had just been born, yet neither ...read more

    Living Victoriously

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Aug 9, 2022
     | 2,631 views

    How do we know what suffering is coming our way? We don't. But as we will see in John's writing and in Jesus's words, Jesus has already secured victory for us, no matter what we face. How privileged we are to have a Savior who has won the war for us.

    2 weeks ago as I sat in the office of my lawyer, he showed me a photocopy of a handwritten letter from Abraham Lincoln that was written to my lawyer’s great-great uncle.

    Gathering For Encouragement Series

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Aug 2, 2021
     | 5,385 views

    Hebrews 12:1 tells us to 'run with endurance'. Only long races need endurance - marathons, for example. In a marathon, encouragement makes all the difference. The Christian life can be tough. We need encouragement and we need to encourage others.

    Today we’re starting a new series. We will have four talks on the theme of ‘Why we gather’. Last Sunday we met back at church after sixteen months of having our morning services online. That’s a significant moment. But something else has been happening. About four months ago we started a new ...read more

    Moreover, it came to pass at the end of four hundred and thirty years, that all the hosts of the Lord left the land of Egypt. It was 430 years to the day, after they had entered the land of Egypt, that the armies of the Lord came out from Egypt in excellent order, as if in a military formation.

    Out-Of-The-Box-Worship

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 24, 2024
     | 1,169 views

    Worship doesn’t involve behaving as if nothing is wrong; it’s making sure everything is right—right with God and with one another. When our greatest fear is letting down our hair, perhaps our greatest sin is keeping it up.

    Opening illustration: Some of us may feel pressured to be perfect when we go to church so that people will think well of us. Metaphorically speaking, we work hard to make sure we have every hair in place. But a healthy church is a place where we can let down our hair and not hide our flaws behind a ...read more

    Death brings sorrow that cuts deep. Your husband and father has left this earth. Yet God walks with you through this valley. His promises bring comfort. His presence brings hope.

    Peace Too Late

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 15, 2025
     | 179 views

    Abner’s delayed surrender and Joab’s proud revenge reveal how pride postpones peace—but David’s mercy shows the heart of true kingship.

    Introduction – A Name That Holds Two Stories My name is David Abner—two names that once stood on opposite sides of a kingdom. One carried the harp and the crown. The other carried the sword and the seal of command. Two men, both strong, both loyal, both flawed, whose paths met too late for ...read more

    Nob Lessons

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 24, 2025
     | 113 views

    God meets fugitives in forgotten places, offering bread, restored courage, forgiven regret, and a remnant of hope that carries destiny forward.

    David is exhausted. Not the kind of tired a nap can fix. He is tired in his bones, in his courage, in his faith. The applause that once filled the air has been replaced by the sound of Saul sharpening a spear. David had been the future king in the palace yesterday. Today he is a fugitive hiding ...read more
