     | 6,220 views

    We become what we behold. As we behold Jesus and His glory, we need to equally revere the Scriptures and the Holy Spirit. Both are worthy, both are right, and both are vitally needed.

    Alrighty, well we’re going to continue our series we’re calling “Amazed.” Amazed at the words of Jesus. One of the encounters that I had where I was amazed at Jesus and His words was when we were in Amsterdam in the early 1990s and we were there doing outreaches in ...read more

    Tuesday, January 5, 2016 A Lame Man Healed (Acts 3.1-11) Note: since this is a long sermon, I suggest it be given in two parts; part 1 (vs. 1-5) on Sunday morning, and part 2 (vs. 6-11) on Sunday evening.

    Dangerous Discipleship

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 26, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,717 views

    To be a follower of Christ is almost certain to be costly. Many turn from following Christ because they fear what it may cost. They are willing to be religious, but hesitate to embrace discipleship. We are called to embrace dangerous discipleship.

    “When the large crowd of the Jews learned that Jesus was there, they came, not only on account of him but also to see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead. So, the chief priests made plans to put Lazarus to death as well, because on account of him many of the Jews were going away and ...read more

    Love Keeps No Record Of Wrongs Series

    Contributed by Steve Malone on Jan 24, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 8,616 views

    Without a doubt the most difficult challenge that you will ever face as you strive to live out God’s kind of love… IS WHEN - somebody hurts you, when they do you wrong, when evil is done to you or to those we love.

    Love Keeps No Record Of Wrongs If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I ...read more
