Graduations Of God Series

Contributed by Perry Greene on May 17, 2012

Got Faith?

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Aug 11, 2019

Abraham and Sarah point us to a kind of faith that can help us make temporary sacrifices for our heavenly home. This faith opens up our eyes to God's activity. And it actually makes God proud of us!

Hebrews 11:1-2, 8-16 Got Faith? Remember the old milk commercials, with famous people wearing milk moustaches? The caption at the end simple said, “Got milk?” It was catchy. It grabbed your attention. So I thought about that when it came to naming today’s sermon. We’re looking at the famous 11th ...read more

Believe God Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jul 29, 2021

Faith in God is critical for our salvation and also for our walk with God. Learn from Abraham and put our faith in God's Word, His wisdom, and glorify God. Faith faces the facts with an unwavering trust in God.

Is faith in God important? Does our faith in Jesus Christ matter? Paul has been stressing to his readers that we are all justified by faith in Jesus Christ, our only way of salvation. • This was not a new, novel idea that he came up with. It was God’s plan for all men. • Paul highlighted in ...read more

How Can I Say No?

Contributed by Samuel M on Feb 18, 2024

How can Abraham say No to the Lord, after hearing the Lord’s voice for 25 years during the waiting period for His son Isaac, where the Lord’s voice was guiding, encouraging and strengthening him to survive the waiting period?

Then God said, “Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you.” Genesis 22:2 When faced with such a situation, the challenge is not how can I say Yes, but how can I say ...read more

Praying In Secret Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 4, 2022

Standing itself is interpreted as praying, for it is said, "and Abraham rose early in the morning to where he stood, "and there is no prayer but standing." though sometimes they prayed sitting, as David did, 2 Samuel 7:18

Matthew 6:5-8 (NIV) 5 "And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others.

Our Confession Of Sin Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 14, 2019

Like Abraham, Jacob and David, and like all of our individual ancestors, we fall short of the mark too often–committing venial sins of omission and commission, and perhaps even total turn-aways from God’s plan.

Tuesday of the 3rd Week in Advent 2019 Our Confession of Sin I have to admit that this is one of my favorite weekday Masses in the whole Lectionary, because we hear the genealogy of Our Lord Jesus. These old Hebrew names don’t necessarily roll off the tongue, but the list is important, because ...read more

Jehovah Jireh Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Sep 6, 2020

When Abraham experienced Jehovah’s provision, he built an altar so that he would remember that day. The Lord’s Table is our Mount Moriah … where we come to remember that Jehovah is our “jireh” … our provider.

Faith Anchored In Hope

Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 7, 2025

This message explores faith when life is not well — when God seems silent, unfeeling, or even contradictory. Through the lives of Job, Moses, and Abraham, we discover that true faith is not the absence of doubt but the choice to trust God in spite of doubt.

Some of us are old enough to remember this little ditty from the 1950s: “Next time you’re found with your chin on the ground… there’s a lot to be learned, just look around. What makes that little old ant think he’ll move that rubber tree plant? Anyone knows an ant can’t… but he’s got high ...read more

Free Refills Of His Victory Series

Four Accusing Questions Series

Contributed by Ron Tuit on Nov 15, 2015

The Jews continue to combat Jesus' claims to Deity in the end of John 8, but Jesus continues to exert His eternal existence and identification with YHWH, the Great I AM.

Jesus’s Reality, My Reality

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on May 16, 2020

Jesus says we can do the works that He did. So why aren’t more Christians doing them? This message identifies nine reasons why the body of Christ, in general, is not doing the works of Jesus.

Jesus’ Reality, My Reality For the most part, the Church, the body of Christ, doesn’t understand who it is as it relates to being part of God’s family. Please turn to 1 John 3.
