Getting Jesus Right (John 1:1-18) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 1, 2022

Who is Jesus, fully, really?

Everything for humans depends on getting Jesus right. We have to understand who Jesus is. What he came for. What he accomplished. And what he wants. If we get this wrong, we end up outside of God's kingdom, looking in. We end up darkness. We perish. But if we get all of this right, and ...read more

The Sexually Healthy Church - Genesis 18:16-33 Series

Contributed by Scott Turansky on Jul 24, 2021

Now I do think it’s important to talk to children about sexuality.

Today we’re going to look at the story of Sodom and Gomorrah.

The Power And Wisdom Of The Cross - 1 Corinthians 1:18 Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Nov 15, 2024

The cross is central to the Christian faith. Yet, for many, it seems absurd, irrelevant, or offensive. Paul’s declaration in 1 Corinthians 1:18 divides humanity into two groups: those who see the cross as foolishness and those who recognise it as the power of God.

The Power and Wisdom of the Cross - 1 Corinthians 1:18 Key Verse: “The message of the cross is foolish to those who are headed for destruction! But we who are being saved know it is the very power of God.” (1 Corinthians 1:18, NLT) Introduction: Transformed by Truth The cross is central to the ...read more

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Feb 20, 2024

Jesus destroys the logic of those who deny the resurrection.

From blame to shame. A call to repentance.

SOUR GRAPES. Ezekiel 18:1-4; Ezekiel 18:25-32. It seems to be very much a part of fallen human nature that we want to blame someone else for the things that go wrong in our lives.
