    Contributed by Derek Geldart on Sep 6, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 579 views

    Spiritual growth is a lifelong journey of transformation empowered by God’s grace, sustained through our daily surrender to the Holy Spirit, nurtured in Christ-centered community, and aimed at becoming more like Jesus for the glory of God.

    Partners in Growth: God's Work and Our Walk 1 Corinthians 3:5-9 Last week, we began an exciting new sermon series entitled “Rooted.” Picture the scene: Jesus is seated in a boat, speaking to a large crowd gathered along the shore—many of them fishermen.

    At New Year many people reflect on a desire to change some perceived troubled area of their lives. So, they make some New Year resolutions they are going to make some changes in their life this coming year…

    • Lose some weight, • Learn a language, • Focus on learning a new skill or hobby, • Some feel stifled in a career and looking for a new opportunity, • Some recognize their spiritual emptiness and resolve to attempt to “know God” or “become more spiritual” in the coming year. As we ...read more

    We cover a lot of ground here. The Israel/Iran war; Donald Trump; the Gog and Magog war misrepresented; the end of the Gog nations; the Second Coming; Armageddon; the Millennium, the restoration of Nature, and another look at the United States of America (from an outsider).

    AN UPDATE ON ISRAEL AND IRAN AND THE UNITED STATES (CONTINUING MY LAST POST) Very recently I submitted a message about the Israel-Iraq conflict looking at prophecy.

    Misplaced Trust And The God Who Never Fails

    Contributed by Derek Geldart on Jun 28, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 622 views

    This sermon warns against placing our trust in human leaders, reputation, or spiritual gifts, reminding us that true holiness and steadfast faith can only be found by fixing our eyes on Christ alone and walking in humble obedience through the power of the Holy Spirit.

    Misplaced Trust and the God who Never Fails Matthew 23:1-10; Acts 8:14-23; 3 John 1:9-10; 1 Samuel 8:1-7; Luke 22:31-34 To be “holy in all you do” (1 Peter 1:15) is no light command—it’s a high calling that reaches into every corner of our lives. In the Old Testament alone, Israel was given 613 ...read more

    A Perfect Christmas - Part 2 Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Nov 9, 2021
     | 1,907 views

    Promise made, promise kept. When you hear these words, you can draw an arch from the Old Testament to the New Testament. For the Old Testament is the promise made, and the New Testament is the promise kept.

    Each Sunday in the month of December, we are looking at ancient predictions from Isaiah, an Old Testament prophet concerning the coming Messiah. Isaiah provides for us a trilogy of predictions about Jesus 700 plus years before His birth. This trilogy provides us with the ingredients of what the ...read more

    Israel’s Greatest General (1of 2)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 1, 2022
     | 1,455 views

    In our text we read of Israel’s greatest general. His name is Joshua. In Joshua 23, Joshua had reached the golden years of his life.

    Look at verse 1. We read, “...Joshua waxed old and stricken in age.” When we consider Joshua’s age, we need to consider TWO things. (1) Look at the phrase, “...stricken in age.” Today it seems many folks are fighting a battle with old age. Illus: One man in Missouri said, “It is rough ...read more

     | 197 views

    Trusting God in seasons of waiting, we cultivate patience and steadfast hearts, confident that He is working and His promises will be fulfilled in His perfect timing.

    Friends, if your calendar has been crammed with waiting—waiting on a phone call, waiting on a breakthrough, waiting on the fog to lift—then you are in good company today. The Bible does not blush about the ache of “How long, Lord?” It speaks straight to the heart that beats a little faster when the ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 94 views

    Faithful, unseen acts of kindness matter deeply to God; persist in doing good, trusting that your efforts will bear fruit in His perfect timing.

    Some days feel like a long string of unnoticed kindness. A parent packing lunches after a long shift. A nurse offering a smile under a mask. A teacher giving one more call to a student who’s fallen behind. A caregiver who holds a trembling hand at midnight. Seeds of goodness go into the soil, and ...read more

    God uses prayer and waiting to prepare us for new beginnings, inviting us to trust His timing and embrace the fresh work He is doing.

    Some mornings feel like the air itself is holding its breath. You can sense that change is near, like the hush before a symphony begins or the split second before a seed splits and sends up a tender green shoot. If you’ve been waiting, watching, and wondering, you’re in good company. The God who ...read more
