Choose God Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jun 9, 2024

Who you FOLLOW, and who LISTEN TO, will determine where you go… and where you end up. Psalm 1 is telling us to listen to God and trust Him... because the alternative is listening to the wicked, sinful and scoffers of this world.

In the book of Numbers (13th chapter) we’re told that Moses - after leading Israel out of captivity in Egypt - had finally brought the people to edge of the Promised Land. And before they go it, God tells Moses to send 12 spies into the promised land. So they select 12 men to slip into Canaan, ...read more

Contributed by Paul Dayao on Jan 7, 2026

Based on King David's testimony in Psalm 32, this sermon charts the spiritual journey from the crushing "agony" of unconfessed sin to the liberating "alleluia" of divine forgiveness found through honest confession.

I Am Free

Contributed by Dr. Abraham Obadare on Jun 12, 2025

Jesus has the power to heal all infirmities, no matter how long or severe the situation is. The bible says, "He sent His word and healed them, and delivered them from their destruction." - Psalm 107:20

Coming Clean

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 8, 2025

Psalm 32 is a good introduction to the idea of confession. It’s a primer on penitence, the ABC’s of contrition. It teaches us why we should confess our sins, how to do so, and what we get out of it.

We live in a confessional culture. It’s been called the "Urge to Purge." Or even "Psychic Bulimia." I can remember back when Phil Donahue was shocking. But these days the things people have to display to get on Jerry Springer or Sally Jessie Raphael hardly raise an eyebrow in ...read more

The Broken Vine: A Prayer For Revival Series

Contributed by Paul Dayao on Sep 15, 2025

This psalm is a desperate prayer for national revival, using the powerful metaphor of a broken vine to teach us that true restoration comes only when we cry out for God to turn our hearts back to Himself and restore His favor.

Introduction: When the Blessing is Broken There is a special kind of pain that comes from seeing something that was once beautiful and thriving fall into ruin.
