    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 22, 2023
     | 3,238 views

    News of impending death comes more of a shock the younger we are. What is our attitude to all this? How do we digest it mentally and emotionally? Here we look at death for a Christian, setting one’s house in order, and specifically at King Hezekiah who was about to die.

    DEATH AND THE CHRISTIAN - SET YOUR HOUSE IN ORDER FOR YOU SHALL DIE AND NOT LIVE – WAS HEZEKIAH’S TIME UP? [A]. INTRODUCTION {{Isaiah 38 v 1 In those days Hezekiah became mortally ill and Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came to him and said to him, “Thus says the LORD, ‘SET YOUR HOUSE IN ...read more

    Nice Place You Got

     | 159 views

    The church becomes lovely when grace lives within her people—imperfect, forgiven hearts revealing God’s presence and beauty to a longing world.

    >>The Big Hunger If you’ve ever watched the old film The Gods Must Be Crazy, you’ll remember the little Bushmen of the Kalahari Desert. Anthropologists call them the San people, but their neighbors simply say, “the Sun People.” Out there—where the sand burns your feet and the stars blanket ...read more

    What Do You Do When The Lights Go Out?

    Contributed by Paul Green on May 1, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,679 views

    Are you experiencing a dark time in your life? Are you unable to make sense of what is happening? There are times in every Christians life when, despite our faithfulness, we’re suddenly plunged into deep, deep darkness. And we’re left asking the question – why? What do we do when the lights go out?

    Five-year old Johnny was in the kitchen as his mother made supper. She asked him to go into the pantry and get her a can of tomato soup, but he didn’t want to go in alone. “It’s dark in there and I’m scared.” She asked again, and he persisted. Finally, she said, “It’s OK, go; Jesus will be in there ...read more

    Love Is Three Simple Things PRO Sermon

    based on 3 ratings
     | 133 views

    God’s steadfast love transforms us, enabling us to extend patient, kind, and honest love to others, even in difficult relationships and situations.

    If you’ve ever stood at the sink late at night replaying a hard conversation, wondering whether love can last through another week of deadlines, disappointments, or disrespect, you are in good company. Hearts get bruised. Words get sharp. People we care about act like porcupines. And if we’re ...read more

    Jesus meets our deepest needs with forgiveness and healing, responding to faith—both ours and others’—with love greater than we can imagine.

    If you listen closely, you can almost hear the shuffle of sandals and the rustle of robes in that little house in Capernaum. The room is stuffed shoulder-to-shoulder with people who showed up hungry for more than bread. They want words that mend, a voice that understands, a touch that makes all ...read more

     | 215 views

    Jesus’ promise gives present assurance of eternal life, freeing us from guilt and fear, and inviting us to trust fully in His finished work.

    Some words rearrange a room, don’t they? A doctor says, “It’s benign,” and shoulders drop. A coach calls your name, and you run to the field. A judge declares, “You’re free to go,” and the hallway home seems shorter. Words can wrap around us like a warm blanket on a windy night. And then there are ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 326 views

    Trusting God means obeying Him even when the path is unclear; true faith is shown through daily, courageous steps of obedience rooted in His promises.

    Some mornings feel like a fog has rolled in and parked on the path right in front of you. You can see your feet, maybe the next step, yet the road ahead stays hidden. Bills stack up, doctors call back, kids cry, doors close, and the heart whispers, “Lord, what do I do now?” In moments like these, ...read more

    When we feel exhausted and overwhelmed, God invites us to trust Him, wait on Him, and receive renewed strength for each day.

    Some of us walked in today with a quiet question humming beneath the surface: How much longer can I keep this up? The calendar is crowded, the to-do list grows fangs, and sleep feels like a stranger. Parents, professionals, students, caregivers—such faithful folks—yet even you can feel thin at the ...read more

    This sermon addresses the importance of authenticity in creating a safe, supportive, "no wake" zone in relationships, including marriage, family, friends, co-workers and other types of core relationships.

    We are in week two of our series No Wake Zone. We just really believe that in this culture and world that we’re in, we get beaten around so much in our life that we need some healthy places in our life, a no wake zone, if you will. Having a no wake zone, a place of rest and refreshment, whether ...read more

    In part of one of unpacking 'hallowed be Your name,' we will look at what pursuing holiness is not and why we must pursue it.

    Fighting Supernatural Evil Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 3, 2021
     | 4,190 views

    When you look at your life, are you filtering out supernatural evil? Do you think life’s struggles are all against “flesh and blood?” Are you assuming there are no “rulers and cosmic powers” at work in your day?

    Imagine if your friends came to you and asked, “We want you to build a bridge. We already have the materials you’ll need to build it. We already have the engineers, craftsmen for the stone and concrete, and we have plenty of construction workers available to you as well. Here are the blueprints to ...read more

    I don’t know about you but this year’s World Series was one of the best in years. Whether you rooted for the Diamondbacks or the Yankees, we have to admit that it was a great series.

    Wind In The Sails

    based on 37 ratings
     | 10,917 views

    Just as we cannot fly a kite without the wind, our lives cannot be truly spiritual without the Holy Spirit. It makes sense therefore that we apply the following four directives to our lives.

    INTRODUCTION: 1. A sundial was given to a group of people who lived in a jungle. To them it was a fetish. They built a house over it to keep it safe and holy. This kept the sun away from it and made it useless. They beautified it but made it without purpose. It reminds us of a powerless ...read more
