    we are the same in Christ, different in our gifting

    We live in a world of diversity, one of choice. Looking around the room we see people of difference, men and women, different ethnic backgrounds, differences in appearance and in personality. When God finished creating man and woman he said, it was good. We can be thankful we are not all the ...read more

    Offense is one of the most devistating lures Satan uses to keep Christians from being effective in ministry. In this sermon I am going to review the Bait of Satan by John Bevere and suggest that it is possible to avoid and overcome offense.

    Don’t Take the Bait James 4:1-3 Online Sermon: http://www.mckeesfamily.com/?page_id=3567 Whom amongst us does not know that we are one body of Christ, instructed to love, support and build each other up in the faith? And yet whom amongst us does not have one or several other ...read more

    Jesus commended the church in Ephesus for their commitment in the midst of opposition, but unfortunately, He had to address their lack of passion for Him. They were a busy church, but they had lost their zeal for the Lord.

    Ephesus: Labor without Love Revelation 2: 1-7 Today I want to begin a series in which we will examine the letters to seven individual churches that Jesus gave to John in the Revelation. As we move through these letters in the coming weeks, bear in mind, these were written to literal, active ...read more

    Revival is not just an option—it is the spark that reignites the fire of faith and empowers us to walk in the life He has destined for us. Let us cry out together, “Lord, revive us again!”

    OPENING ILLUSTRATION: The history of our nation with Judeo-Christian leanings is deeply engraved with the acknowledgment that their founding principles were influenced by God's Word. From the earliest settlers who sought religious freedom to the framing of laws and constitutions, America ...read more

    Much attention is given to caring for our bodies, but caring for our spirit is even more important. This message instructs believers on how to maintain a strong, fervent spirit.

    Intro We have been talking about the human spirit. Paul prayed for the Ephesian believers that they would be strengthened in the inner man (Eph. 3:16). It was said of both John the Baptist and Jesus that they became “strong in spirit.”i God wants our spirit to be strong. As we learned in previous ...read more

    Navigating The Ebb And Flow

    Jesus shared words to help John's disciples navigate change, as they were dealing with the loss of their leader. He also addressed the change of grace over legalism. This passage can be applied to change within the church.

    I have entitled our message this morning, “Navigating the Ebb and Flow.” The expression “ebb and flow” is an idiom used to describe periods of highs and lows, and growth and decline, just like the rising and falling of the tides. It is essentially the idea that life is not always constant, but ...read more

    Many who come into a local church think it looks more like a porcupine ball than a tightly knit family.

    42They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. 43Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles. 44All the believers were together and had everything in common. 45Selling their ...read more

    The Gift Of Love Series

    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Dec 19, 2019
     | 4,315 views

    In Malachi 3:1-4 we see the Father's "Gift of Love" in the promise of His Son through a series of predictions (i.e., announcements regarding the future). In verses 1-4 we can see love from (1) The Coming Lord (Malachi 3:1-2) and from (2) The Purifying Lord (Malachi 3:3–4).

    Malachi 3:1-4 [3:1]"Behold, I send my messenger, and he will prepare the way before me.
