    Don’t give up! Exhausted but still in pursuit caught my attention! Hard work is the key element that separates the genius from the ordinary! An indomitable spirit is needed to overcome discouragement, stress and pressure! Now don't take this impersonally!

    Hot pursuit! Judges 8:4 “When Gideon came to the Jordan, he and the three hundred men who were with him crossed over, exhausted but still in pursuit.” Don’t give up! Exhausted but still in pursuit caught my attention! Hard work is the key element that separates the genius from ...read more

    God desires that every believer lead a righteous life but our culture places a lot of pressure on Christians to "fit in." How can we resist the secular influences of our time? The apostle Paul reveals how to pursue holiness and resist compromise.

    Living the Life - A Call to Godly Living Scripture: Romans 12:1-2 Introduction: God desires that every believer lead a righteous life. But our culture places a tremendous amount of pressure on Christians to "fit in." The doctrines of our faith are often mocked and ridiculed in the public ...read more

    Most moms, I believe, can really identify with what I am describing here. USA Today wrote recently that “while 84% of moms today believe the stereotype of the “perfect mom” is outdated, 90% of moms still feel pressured to be perfect”

    “Godly Advice from a Godly Mother” John 2:1-11 So it probably dates me a bit but these were the kinds of TV shows I grew up with: • Brady Bunch • Father knows best • Andy Griffith show • Leave it to Beaver And I will admit they helped shape my idea of what a family should look like ……. and to me ...read more

     | 407 views

    With love and skill, David the shepherd cared for his flocks. As the king of Israel, David would care for God’s people. Despite the relentless pressure they had faced from their enemies and their woeful record of persistent rebellion, God had never abandoned them.

    Sermon: Striving to Lead with Integrity and Skill Scripture Leson: Psalms 78:67-72 “Then he rejected the tents of Joseph, he did not choose the tribe of Ephraim; but he chose the tribe of Judah, Mount Zion, which he loved.

    He Calls You By Name

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 30, 2025
     | 335 views

    John’s resurrection account reveals a quiet but profound truth: belonging comes before understanding. This message invites weary believers to release the pressure to prove their faith and rediscover a resurrection life rooted in being known, named, and kept—while still on the road.

    Introduction John tells us that Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark. That detail matters. Not because it is poetic, but because it is honest. This is not the hour of confidence or clarity. This is the hour when grief wakes before reason does. The hour when the body ...read more

    Finding grace in adverse circumstances to pass the torch of the gospel on to others.

    PASSING THE LIGHT. 2 Corinthians 4:5-12. Paul had been concerned by some self-made ‘ministers’ who were nothing better than peddlers ‘making gain by corrupting the word of God’ (2 Corinthians 2:17). Paul and his fellow-ministers, by contrast, were neither dishonest nor manipulative. They ...read more

    Many people today seem overloaded with the cares of this world and have neglected to concentrate on making happy memories with their family, which will pay off in the long run, mainly when they reflect on their lives and their loved ones are no longer around to share their memories.

    Today the pressures and responsibilities of life are great. It seems like there’s always something, something problematic such as: financial obligations, marital conflicts, unruly children, faulty products, accidents, etc. And no one is exempt! A common expression is, “Oh no, not again!”

    I. People in the days of Jesus experienced similar situations A. Martha, the sister of Mary, is a case in point. She was so busy with the small stuff that she missed the main thing. JESUS had come to her house! He was there for her. He was not there for her to take care of Him; He was there to ...read more

    More than any other time I wonder what we are known for? Those New Testament Christians were known for their resilience and unending mission to spread the gospel. But in the here and now - when the pressure of life is immense - what are we known for?

    WHAT ARE WE KNOWN FOR? 1 THESSALONIANS 1:1-10 Introduction The book of Acts serves as a history of the spreading flame of the gospel throughout the Roman empire and beyond. Thousands are baptized in Acts 2. Later we see the astounding conversion of the terrorist Saul of Tarsus. Persecution ...read more

    The Power Of Unity In The Holy Spirit Series

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Feb 15, 2026
     | 255 views

    Maintaining unity in the Holy Spirit is essential to a healthy church; however, it is also challenging, due to human sinfulness, the pressures of the world, and the opposition of Satan. Here is how we can draw on the Holy Spirit’s power to love, forgive, and bear with one another in Christ.

    Today our topic is the Power of the Holy Spirit. We begin with the book of Acts, chapter one, verses 4-9. This is forty days after Christ’s resurrection. 4 On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, ...read more

     | 1,478 views

    Living in a world filled with temptation, immorality, and sin, maintaining purity as believers can feel like a constant challenge. The pressures of society, media, and peer influence often pull us away from God’s standards of holiness. However, as Christians, we are called to live pure lives.

    Title: MAINTAINING PURITY IN A SINFUL WORLD By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 1 Peter 1:15-16 "But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy." Supporting Texts: Romans 12:2; Matthew 5:8; 1 ...read more
