Sermons on Redeeming Patience:

Who Can Be Perfect? Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 31, 2021

Mozart was only 25 years old when he settled in Vienna in 1781. Ten years later he was dead, but his commitment to perfection made his mark live on and crown him as one of the princes of music.

God's Spirit Is Poured Onto A Wilderness Series

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Jun 5, 2022

The Spirit is poured out from on high, “and the wilderness becomes a fruitful field.” It’s like the change from a dry desert into garden land. When God sends his Spirit, He begins to produce good fruits. That’s the sure effect of his work: a harvest for God.

Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 21, 2025

True meaning is not something we calculate or construct but Someone we receive—our identity, purpose, and hope found only in Christ.
