The Cost Of Following Jesus Series

Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Mar 3, 2025

While all of us come to faith from a variety of different circumstances, the calling of Simon helps us to see that there are some commonalities among all conversions

Some are older - I know a woman who was in her late 80s when she came to faith. Some have lived simple lives, others have lived rather rambunctiously. Some have come ...read more

Here's A Man Who Needs No Introduction Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on May 1, 2024

To take somebody else’s off was considered absolutely degrading. If you had servants, one of the rules was you could never make a Jewish servant take your sandals off. That would be too degrading to make a fellow countryman do.

Holy Spirit Baptism Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jul 7, 2021

This sermon examines Holy Spirit baptism from a Baptist's perspective, asking, "Is it really a second work of grace?" and "Must it be evidenced by speaking in tongues?" Also, "Is being filled with the Spirit the same thing?"

This morning, I’m going to have us look at something called “Holy Spirit baptism.” This is a subject that when mishandled can lead to a lot of confusion; not to mention, feelings of condemnation. The very first time I encountered this term was when I was in college and I attended an Assemblies of ...read more

Reaching Critical Mass Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jul 13, 2021

Based on the Mario Murillo book. This message focuses on five keys to revival: a faithful prayer core, an attitude of humility, travailing in prayer, shattering the barrier of our old nature, and surrendering what takes priority over God.

In the first chapter of Acts, Luke shares how Jesus ascended into heaven, and then afterwards he turns our focus toward a room. “It is the Upper Room in Jerusalem, and it is just weeks after the resurrection of Jesus. One hundred twenty believers are praying and waiting. All they know is that ...read more

Esther Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 3, 2022
