    The sermon emphasizes turning to God in every circumstance through prayer, praise, confession, and community, trusting that sincere prayer brings real change and healing.

    Friends, welcome. If your week has been full of sighs, or full of songs, you’re in the right place.

    Temptation

     | 2,400 views

    Through the life of Joseph, the Bible gives us an example of how we can move beyond temptation and make the right choice.

    Have you ever been tempted? Sure, you have. Things that catch our attention flash before our eyes and we feel the urge to respond. It might be that second helping of chocolate cake. It might be some ad in a commercial that advertises something that we don't need and can't afford. A ...read more

    Sermon - God’s Instructions For Purposeful Living

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Mar 11, 2025
     | 1,019 views

    Some people live on purpose and some just respond to what the world delivers. A “life of purpose” is not something you do or something you have automatically, it is choices that each of us make. Living a life of purpose guides all our choices and shapes the direction of our life.

    Sermon – God’s Instructions for Purposeful Living Scripture - Psalms 1:1-6 AMP, “Blessed [fortunate, prosperous, and favored by God] is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked [following their advice and example], Nor stand in the path of sinners, Nor sit [down to rest] in the seat ...read more

    The Faith is under assault by a wicked world. In such times, believers are encouraged by the knowledge that God shall prevail; and the evidence for this truth is the eternal Word that reveals the Son of God.

    A voice says, “Cry!” And I said, “What shall I cry?” All flesh is grass, and all its beauty is like the flower of the field. The grass withers, the flower fades when the breath of the LORD blows on it; surely the people are grass. The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God ...read more

    In contrast to the ambition to acquire the applause and approval of men, Jesus turns his disciples toward the powerless -- toward children -- as exemplars of Himself, His Father, and the ones his disciples should seek to serve.
