Doing Without God Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Oct 23, 2017

When we fall into a rut, or feel that our efforts are not worth God’s attention, God comes alongside as and reminds us that He is with us. Which means we shouldn’t get stuck in the moment and allow that to be the focus – we need to look beyond the moment to what God is doing.

Eyes That See

Contributed by Lewis Martin on Apr 7, 2025

Jesus tells a parable in Luke 16 that pulls back the curtain—revealing what happens when we live with closed eyes and closed hearts. It’s the story of a rich man, a poor beggar named Lazarus, and the eternal consequences of spiritual blindness.

Sermon: "Eyes That See" (Luke 16:19-31) Scripture Reading (Luke 16:19-31 - NLT): 19 Jesus said, “There was a certain rich man who was splendidly clothed in purple and fine linen and who lived each day in luxury. 20 At his gate lay a poor man named Lazarus who was covered with sores. 21 As ...read more

Sermon On The Amount

Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 15, 2025

Tithing and Sabbath-keeping are not payments for God’s favor but grace-filled acts of worship—joyful, concrete responses to the God who first loved, first gave, and continues to work in us.

(God’s call on our time and tithe) Introduction – The Heart Before the Numbers You’ve heard of the Sermon on the Mount. This morning, I want to talk about the Sermon on the Amount.

A Return To Civility: Intro Series

Contributed by Denn Guptill on Jun 23, 2024

I noticed that as a society we've seemed to have lost our Civility, we no longer show one another respect. Could that be because we've lost our common morality? This is a new look at the 10 Commandments

Earlier this year I was struck by how uncivil our society has become. I can’t remember if it was a personal encounter with someone or something I saw on the news or read on social media. But I do remember thinking: Why can’t we just be civil to each other, what can’t we just be nice? It seems that ...read more

Living Under God's Open Heaven PRO Sermon

God’s generous presence and blessing are available to us through prayer, inviting us to trust, receive, and live confidently under His open heaven.

Some mornings feel like the sky sits low and gray, as if our prayers push against a ceiling of clouds. Bills stack, hearts ache, and strength thins out around the edges. And then we read a line of Scripture and it’s as if God opens a window and lets a fresh breeze run through the room. That’s what ...read more

The Word Gives Life PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 2, 2025

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

God Sees Our Hearts PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 11, 2025

God calls us to honest, wholehearted integrity—living openly before Him and others—because true freedom and joy are found in sincerity, not in appearances.

Some passages ease into our living rooms like an old friend, and some step onto the front porch and ring the bell with urgency. Acts 5 is one of those moments. It invites us to sit still, to listen closely, and to remember that God cares about what we hold in our hands and what we hide in our ...read more

Concentration On Consecration PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 14, 2025

God calls us to consecrate ourselves—living holy, set-apart lives—so we are ready for Him to work wonders in and through us.

There’s a hush that falls over the heart when you sense God is nearby. Not in the thunder, not even in the headlines, but in the ordinary—the kettle singing in the kitchen, a lunch pail packed for work, the Bible open on a worn table. In those moments, something within whispers, “Get ready.” ...read more

Crucified With Christ PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 19, 2025

God’s grace alone justifies us, not our performance; we are called to live boldly and freely by faith in Christ’s finished work.

Some of us walked in today with a smile on our face and a knot in our stomach. We love Jesus. We long to please Him. Yet we bump into old habits, heavy expectations, and the quiet pressure to perform. We want to get it right. We want to be faithful. And in the middle of it all, we wonder: Does God ...read more

The Lukewarm Church PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 20, 2025

Jesus lovingly exposes our self-sufficiency, invites us to deeper dependence on Him, and offers restoration, hope, and true riches for our lukewarm hearts.

Some of us walked in today with a smile for the foyer and a sigh for the soul. Bills on the counter, deadlines on the calendar, questions on the heart. And yet, here we are, gathering around a Letter from Jesus to an ancient church in a city called Laodicea—a church with polished doors and tepid ...read more
