    8 Reasons Why People Leave The Church

    Contributed by Sheryln Miller on Apr 11, 2019
     | 5,622 views

    Are you surprised when you hear that a once faithful Christ follower has turned away from the faith and now doubts whether scripture is true or not? If you are like me, you wonder how this happens but then you remember this is nothing new. Apostasy appears throughout the bible.

    In Hebrews 6:4-5 the writer notes some will turn away from the gospel although they once tasted the good Word and received the Holy Spirit. Jesus knew we would be tempted to turn away from the truth but He reminds us to remain faithful to the end (end of our lives) if we want to receive the ...read more

    Psalm 100:1-5 “The Forgotten Holiday” If we were to mark our calendars according to television commercials, mall decorations, and movies we might figure that some “high official” somewhere, who makes the decisions about things, has decided that we are to just skip ...read more

    Ready Too Late

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on May 17, 2023
     | 2,306 views

    Is it possible to "miss the boat" when it comes to doing something for God? That's exactly what happened to Israel when it was time to enter the Promised Land.

    The twelve spies were sent into the Promised Land as a reconnaissance team. This was the big day, the day Israel had been waiting for. This was the reason God brought them out of Egypt and why they made the long trek through the wilderness. The time had come for Israel to go into the land of ...read more

    How and why we serve the Body of Christ is as important as what we do.

    The Right Thing in the Right Way for the Right Reasons (I Thessalonians 2:1-12) 1. Our church has not always been a peace. We have had our conflicts over the years, and I have sometimes been labeled this way or that. 2. One challenge a church leader has in such situations is this: Do I defend ...read more

    Shalom - I Have Every Reason To Be Grateful

    Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Mar 10, 2020
     | 8,504 views

    Shalom means “nothing missing, nothing broken”. It is having God’s unshakable promise that makes a man perfect, whole, complete and full. It does not mean you have everything, but that He is your Everything. Jesus Provides, Preserves, Protects, etc. For these, I am grateful.

    SHALOM – WE HAVE EVERY REASON TO BE GRATEFUL Numbers 31: 48 Then the officers who were over the units of the army - the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds - went to Moses 49 and said to him, “Your servants have counted the soldiers under our command, and not one of them is missing. ...read more

    The Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard is a well know parable of grace, but it is also a parable of receiving. We must learn to receive.

    A man is not the sum of what he gathers, it is not abou what you have but who you know. Do you know the one that provides ALL things?

    TOYS OR JOYS? (All my sermons use illustrations found at www.sermoncentral.com and all scripture is NIV unless otherwise noted.) So many times I have heard people say “the one that dies with the most toys wins” as if gathering material possessions here on earth is what life is all ...read more

    Bring Your Complaints To God Series

     | 5,262 views

    There is a difference between grumbling and bringing our complaints to God in lament. In this second step of lament, we learn to bring out complaints humbly and honestly to God, which then transitions us to steps three and four, asking and trusting.

    A. I like the story about a man who joined a monastery where the monks were only allowed to speak two words every five years. 1. At the end of five years they were given an audience and could utter their two words. 2. At the end of the man’s first five years, the novice monk simply said, “Bed ...read more

    Often churches are not united because people kill the vision God has for the church, this sermon shows what kills a vision.

    UNITED WE FLY (ALL my sermons use illustrations from www.sermoncentral.com and all scripture is NIV unless otherwise noted) This church is about people reaching people. If a young person gets saved then they will reach 19% of their family. If a woman gets saved she will reach 32% of her family. ...read more

    Exodus 15 - Singing and Suffering Exodus 15 is an anthem of praise to God for Israel’s deliverance from Egypt. It’s often called the song of Moses and the men got a choir together and sang it.
