    This message explores the reasons we have to give God thanks. Our choice to give God thanks should not rest on Him doing something for us - but for what He has already done through His Son and what He continues to do.

    Thanksgiving Scripture: Psalm 92:1-4; Psalm 107:8, 15; First Thessalonians 5:18 The title of my message this morning is “Thanksgiving.” This has been a difficult year and some people may be struggling with the idea of being thankful.

    What A Wonderful World Series

    When we "Contend For The Faith" we need to realize the importance of contending for the fact that we have been created in the image of God. We're not an accident - we have value and a reason to live. But if folks damage that "image" how can they fix that?

    (We started out the sermon with a video from BBC One Videos - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auSo1MyWf8g - which displays the wonder of God’s creation accompanied by a poetic reading of the song “What A Wonderful World”) What a wonderful world we live in. The Psalmist observed “When I look at ...read more

    Walking The Road To Bethlehem: Mary Learns She Will Bear The Son Of God

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 2, 2021
     | 1,190 views

    Why do we remind ourselves of the coming of Jesus? I always wondered that as a child. The reason is very simple: The cares of this world, job, college, family, and the various pleasures of life can crowd out the true center of our lives, which is Jesus.

    Welcome, officially to the Christmas season. As we call it, “advent.” Why do we have this season of advent? What is advent? Advent literally means “the arrival.” And specifically, the arrival of an important individual. So this advent season we’re going to be taking a journey, to recall and refresh ...read more

    God Delivers Series

     | 3,531 views

    Tonight brings us the climax of this story that most of us already know. But even though it's a familiar story, I always look for some reason that this story is in God's Word. Why is it there and what it is trying to teach us?

    Tonight's study in the third chapter of Daniel is really very short. But even though it's short, it packs a powerful message for all of us. Last time our study in the Book of Daniel left us at the entrance to the fiery furnace. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were bound, fully clothed, ...read more

    So many of us for various reasons when we look at ourselves the image is distorted, but when we see ourselves through the eyes of the Father's love (when we make our Maker our mirror) that distortion is driven away.

    Seeing Yourself Through His Eyes #20/20 Vision Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized by John. But John tried to deter him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?” Jesus replied, “Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all ...read more

    Are You Blaming The Messenger?

     | 6,257 views

    Those who are called to teach you do so knowing that we must give an account for what we pass on to you. For this reason I must cover the whole Bible including the parts that are hard to understand and that are ominous and disturbing. I have no choice.

    Are you blaming the messenger? Deuteronomy 18:15-20 Luke 4:14-30 People react to God in a variety of ways. Some are enthusiastic and inquisitive while others have no interest what so ever and even deny the existence of God. What happened in the Gospel of Luke Chapter 4:14-30 is an account of ...read more

    Heaven is so much more than something to think about when we're old. The mission Christ calls his body to has a reason, an end and a destination. We're working for something and toward something. That something we call heaven.

    We regularly pray the Lord’s Prayer petition – “Forgive our sins as we forgive those who sin against us.” But what are the practicalities of praying such a prayer? Especially when we have many reasons for not forgiving? This sermon wrestles with these questions.

    Message Matthew 6:14-15 “Forgiving Others” You can listen to the full message here:- http://www.nec.org.au/listen-to-a-sermon-series/forgiveness/ How many of you know the Lord’s Prayer?

    A Thorn In The Flesh

     | 6,203 views

    We know that God is able to heal, but sometimes we aren’t healed. This message looks at one possible reason why, as we examine an illness that the apostle Paul wrestled with for most of his Christian life - his "thorn in the flesh."

    This evening we are going to look at a passage of Scripture that is related to the subject matter of healing. In the Scripture we discover that our God is a God of healing. He says in Exodus 15:26, “I am the Lord who heals you.” We also read that Jesus Christ, God’s Son, heals us as well, for ...read more

    The great men of the kingdom came from far and near and stood around the image. Among them, by command of the King, were Daniel's three friends, the young Jews, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. For some reason, Daniel himself was not there.

    Fiery Furnace There was in the land of Judah a wicked king-named Jehoiakim, son of the good Josiah. While Jehoiakim was ruling over the land of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar, a great conqueror of the nations, came from Babylon with his army of Chaldean sersoldi. He took the city of Jerusalem and made ...read more

    God Appoints His Servants

    God said both Nebuchadnezzar and Cyrus were His "servants." One brought national ruin; the other brought restoration. We need to trust that whoever is leading - king, prime minister, president - that God has placed them for a reason.

    Leading up to the presidential election, we all had a favorite candidate whom we desired to win; someone who would represent our values. We envisioned how he would bring about prosperity and freedom to our nation; but if he lost, we envisioned the end of the world. Anyone of any political party ...read more

    An Unexpected Journey

    The reasons we journey are as numerous as the places to which we travel… But regardless of the where, how, and when, all our journeys have something in common…they provide us with opportunities to see, hear and learn new things…some expected…some not!

    Introduction: Many things factor into the direction I take as I prepare my weekly messages. Foremost is the direction the Holy Spirt leads as I pray and seek God’s will concerning these words. 0ther factors like the Jewish calendar that leads us to Advent, Lent, and Easter as well as the changing ...read more

    The Last Word

    Skeptics claim that death has the final word. God claims that life has the final word. Should we abandon the skeptics’ claim for God’s. Should we? John says “yes,” and he gives us three reasons that we should.

    It was Sunday morning. The pastor was planning to preach on the Resurrection of the Lord. And he wanted his sermon to make an impression on the congregation.
