     | 5,963 views

    How well does Hell (the Devil and the demons) know your name? How much do they fear you and your church?

    Scripture: Acts 19:11-22 (cf. v. 15) Title: Who In Hell Knows Your Name? INTRO: Grace and Peace from God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Today’s passage is a remarkable section of Scripture. It is full of all kinds of strange stories and events. When you first read it, you might wonder ...read more

    Protecting The Saints From Scams

    Contributed by David Owens on Nov 4, 2024
     | 880 views

    Being aware of the tactics of financial scammers can help protect us from them, but we are also protected by the spiritual practices of faith, contentment, and humility.

    A. Today’s sermon is a unique one in that it is part sermon and part public service announcement. 1. I have titled the sermon: “Protecting the Saints from Scams.” 2. And that’s what I hope to do in today’s sermon – protect our church family from financial exploitation. 3. Our deacon of benevolence ...read more

    When God Whispers Hope

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 2, 2025
     | 72 views

    Finding Strength When You Feel Like Giving Up. Believers overcome discouragement by facing reality with faith—trusting God’s goodness, and rediscovering hope in Christ.

    The Devil’s Favorite Tool There’s an old story told by preachers long before microphones and livestreams. It goes like this: One day the devil decided to have a garage sale. He laid out all his tools on a table—hatred, envy, jealousy, deceit, lust, pride, and lying. Each one was marked with a ...read more

    Artificial People Living Artificial Lives - Message Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Apr 13, 2023
     | 2,156 views

    Do people live artificial lives because they are artificial, OR they are artificial because they live artificial lives? Olives will never be produced from a fig tree. The world is full of artificial people. What about Christians – are you living an artificial life that does not please God?

    ARTIFICIAL PEOPLE LIVING ARTIFICIAL LIVES - MESSAGE [A]. EXPOSING ARTIFICIALITY I have just seen one of these documentaries set in a very exclusive English Hotel rated with 5 stars. It is popular with some of royalty and film stars and other high profile people. It is very expensive with ...read more

    based on 44 ratings
     | 5,509 views

    People often use this as excuse for not being a Christian or for leaving the church. This lesson examines the question and demonstrates that such a criticism cannot be used as an excuse.

    Answering Criticisms "All Christians Are Hypocrites" Introduction 1. This is quite a criticism that is often leveled against Christians for a variety of reasons by both unbelievers and believers alike. 2. We shall consider several aspects of this accusation. I. What Is A Hypocrite? A. ...read more

    Connecting To Community

    Contributed by W Pittendreigh on Jan 17, 2005
    based on 99 ratings
     | 18,196 views

    God says, "It is not good for a person to be alone." How can we connect instead of cocoon in this society?

    A farm boy accidentally overturned his wagonload of wheat on the road. The farmer who lived nearby came to investigate. “Hey, Willis,” he called out, “forget your troubles for a while and come and have dinner with us. Then I’ll help you overturn the wagon.” “That’s very nice of you,” Willis ...read more

    Jesus, The Ultimate Gift Giver

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Dec 22, 2003
    based on 24 ratings
     | 6,754 views

    These gifts Jesus gave us we can never be duplicated; yet we can, in one form or another, give a toned down version of them back to God and even to our loved ones.

    Jesus, The Ultimate Gift Giver (topical) 1. WHAT CHILDREN HEAR I was reading the story of Jesus’ birth to my day-care children one morning. As usual, I stopped to see if they understood. "What do we call the three wise men?" I asked. "The three maggots," replied a bright 5-year-old. "What ...read more

    Halloween, An Evangelistic Opportunity

    Contributed by Horace Wimpey on Oct 25, 2013
    based on 3 ratings
     | 8,532 views

    Halloween is an opportunity to share Jesus in a very unique way. We must re-define Halloween just as Easter and Christmas was re-defined.

    Halloween, An Evangelistic Opportunity Ephesians 5:1-13 Intro: Late one dark night, two men were walking home after a party. They were tired and desperate to get home, so they decided to take a shortcut through a cemetery. They got to about the middle of the graveyard, and they were startled and ...read more

    The Will Of God, Coke And Honour. Series

    Contributed by Andrew Moffatt on Sep 21, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,297 views

    Have you ever thought I wonder what the will of God is for my life? It could be honouring (that’s New Zealand-English, not a spelling mistake) others so that they too will do the will of God. This is about a culture of honour.

    In this time in history the basic desires, the basic drives of the human being are pretty much the same as they have been for all of history. In John’s first letter of three which incidentally I’m working through a series on, we get this directive from this great Apostle, who walked along side ...read more

    THE BEGINNING OF A SERIES DEALING WITH THE SPECIAL WAYS THAT GOD ACTS IN OUR LIVES THAT LEAVES NO DOUBT THAT ONLY GOD COULD ACT IN THESE WAYS.

    GOD MOMENTS (EXODUS 13:1-10) INTRODUCTION: HAVE YOU CONSIDERED THE AWESOME POWER OF TIME? OFTEN WE TAKE MOMENTS FOR GRANTED, BUT SOME MOMENTS CAN BE LIFE TRANSFORMING. TAKE JAMES CAMERON FOR EXAMPLE. IT WAS AN AVERAGE NIGHT IN MARION, INDIANA IN 1930. THERE ARE, HOWEVER, NO AVERAGE NIGHTS FOR ...read more

    Something No Thief Can Steal

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 30, 2009
    based on 10 ratings
     | 11,501 views

    Contrast the thieves on the crosses; from Jesus they had, or could have had, salvation, assurance, companionship, things which no thief can steal.

    The scene was one of striking and even bitter contrast. While three men were being hauled off to their deaths, one of them was far different from the other two. Two of these hapless three were thieves, and as thieves they had lived by the law of the thief: namely, easy come, easy go. If you take ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,972 views

    The myth we are going to look at today is "Giving Means Subtracting".

    INTRO: How many of us liked math when we were growing up? I remember in college, before being called into the ministry, I was going to get a math degree. But I realized I could not make it through Calculus 3. I just could not understand it. It’s like today living in a society that teaches us one ...read more
