    Do I Really Have To Change?

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 16, 2025
     | 261 views

    Encountering God’s holiness leads us to honest confession, gracious cleansing, and a life of obedient mission.

    Opening: A Question We All Know Can people really change? That question sits in the back of our minds like a song we can’t finish. It comes at two in the morning. It comes after the argument we had at dinner. It comes when the doctor says, “The test is back,” or when a child looks at us with holy ...read more

    You Before Yours

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 16, 2025
     | 117 views

    God desires the giver before the gift—when we first surrender our hearts to Him, every act of generosity, including financial giving, flows joyfully and becomes an overflow of grace.

    (God wants the giver before the gift) --- Introduction – Life Stirs Up Life Before we even open our Bibles, think about something amazing. The New Testament calls the church the body of Christ. Not a building. Not bricks and mortar. You and I are the church. Every part of a body matters. ...read more

    God's Favor

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 19, 2025
     | 131 views

    We are not saved by rule-keeping or self-rescue but by God’s grace—grace received by faith—which alone can break sin’s dominion and lead us home.

    Introduction Some of us feel far from God. Far from the person we wanted to be. Far from family. Far from our own true selves. And though we long to come home, we know that we cannot pave that road with our own effort. The Bible has a single word for the road back. That word is grace. Victor ...read more

    God offers absolute assurance of salvation through Christ’s finished work, the Spirit’s inner witness, and the Father’s unbreakable promise.

    (Finding Assurance of My Salvation) Introduction – From “I Hope” to “I Know” Church, let me ask a question that will outlast every headline and every paycheck: > When you lay your head on the pillow at night—when no one hears your thoughts—do you know that you are saved? Not think so. Not ...read more

     | 191 views

    Grip the gospel daily—remember, receive, redirect, rely—and the Spirit will help you guard God’s good deposit.

    One of the typical characteristics of our children—maybe yours too—was that they enjoyed playing their music loud. Not just loud… LOUD. The kind of loud that rattles the drywall and makes the dog rethink his loyalty to the family. One day, while I was getting dressed, I heard music thumping ...read more

    You're Invited

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 21, 2025
     | 151 views

    God lovingly invites everyone to His eternal banquet; true acceptance means wearing Christ’s robe of righteousness, not our own efforts.

    Section 1 – Introduction: The Search and the Invitation Picture the best church potluck you’ve ever attended. Tables sag under the weight of steaming casseroles, vege meatloaf, fragrant breads, and desserts that dare you to try “just one bite.” Everyone brings something, but nobody goes ...read more

    Pardon Me

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 23, 2025
     | 177 views

    Forgiveness must be a daily lifestyle, releasing debts as God forgives us, so faith and love remain alive in every relationship.

    (490 Times) Introduction – Mercy Triumphs over Judgment When Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?” Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy times seven” (Matthew 18:21–22). Today’s ...read more

    How In The World Can I Be Holy?

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 24, 2025
     | 148 views

    Holiness grows as we surrender: Christ renews our thoughts, equips our lives, and tunes our praise, freeing us to truly live.

    Introduction: A wild duck lands in a Danish barnyard for an easy meal. He plans to stay an hour, then a day, then a summer. When autumn comes and wild wings thunder overhead, he tries to join them but can barely clear the barn eaves. By the next spring he scarcely looks up. That is a parable of ...read more

     | 234 views

    When you refuse to bow and trust Christ, He joins you in life’s furnace and brings deliverance, testimony, and transformation.

    Introduction – Why This Story Still Burns Bright I believe in the Word of God. It is more than a history book. More than a collection of religious sayings. This is the living, breathing truth of God. If you live by the Bible, you will be saved, healed, delivered, and set free. Not merely a church ...read more

    Sabbath is God’s eternal sign of creation and redemption, inviting joyful weekly worship and deeper fellowship with Jesus, our Creator and Redeemer.

    Two men were arguing at work one day about religion. Neither really knew what they were talking about. Finally one said, “Man, you don’t know anything about religion. I’ll bet you ten dollars you can’t even repeat the Lord’s Prayer.” The other grinned. “Oh yeah? It’s a bet!” He straightened up and ...read more

    Trust God by living quietly, minding your own business, and working faithfully so His love, not gossip or control, defines your relationships.

The others shouted, “Stop! What are you doing?” “Mind your own business,” he said. “This is my spot.” They cried, ...read more
