    God’s grace is dependent on what Christ did for us, and not on what we do. It is given without respect to merit, worh, or accomplishment.

    This morning, we begin a three-week series of messages on the topic of "grace". Over these next three Sundays, we will be focusing our attention on this one single doctrine, because a correct understanding of God’s grace is at the center of our faith. It is absolutely foundational. A clear, ...read more

    This passage not only gives us some indication of how to pray, but it also helps us determine when we are to pray. There are four distinct times that we’re to come before God. We’re to look to Him…1. When we’re suffering. (13a);2. When we have succes

    We all have moments and seasons of uncertainty. Jesus will walk us through if we stick with him. I modified this sermon from the notes of my friend Pastor Paul Rivero.

    Uncertainty I.

    A sinner can’t find help in the city where man lives? They can’t survive by sitting at the gate. Their only choice in to go to the camp of God, their enemy, to find deliverance.

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,296 views

    The Biblical word "peace" [Greek ~ Irene] signifies far more than merely the absence of war. It carries the idea of completeness and wholeness. It conveys a sense of inner-satisfaction and fulfillment. It communicates the idea of contentment and serenity.

    Opening illustration: A four-year-old and a six-year-old presented their mom with a houseplant. They had used their own money to buy it and she was thrilled. The older of them said with a sad face, "There was a bouquet at the flower shop that we wanted to give you. It was real pretty but it was too ...read more

    The Man's Role In Society

    Contributed by Clinton Smith on Mar 4, 2008
    based on 17 ratings
     | 75,216 views

    The sermon was written to call us to repentance for missing for so long, restore us to the place of godly leadership and stability, and encourage us to hang in there even when the going gets tough.

    The society in which we live has neglected to teach men about their role in the home, in the church, and society. The worldly view of a man’s role is that he should provide financially for his family, but we shouldn’t expect him to be very engaged with home life. In spite of all our talk of ...read more

    Old Abbott and Costello skit. It doesn’t matter too much who is in what position in our lives until we settle the matter of who is on first.
