    Choices: Surrender Or Control Series

    Contributed by Lynn Malone on Jul 3, 2018
     | 10,446 views

    We can choose to control every aspect of our lives, or we can choose to surrender that control to the Lord. The choice we make will determine our eternal future.

    We began last week by saying that we are the sum total of the choices we’ve made in life until today, and that what we will be in the future will depend on the choices we make today and subsequently. Last week, we looked at choosing purpose over popularity. This week, we’re going to look at the ...read more

    The Stigma Of Being Holy Series

    Contributed by Kevin Hall on Nov 26, 2012
     | 5,131 views

    There are so many thoughts of half truths pertaining to our own orthodoxies that many get a false sense of what makes us a peculiar group of people to the rest of the world.

    “The Stigma of Being Holy” I Peter 1:16 Over the past few weeks we have interacted with the subject of Stigmas. We’ve talked about the Stigma of what it meant to be Christian. Last week Pastor Chad spoke about the Stigma of a Missionary. So to conclude this Stigma series I want ...read more

    Why This Election Is Crucial

    Contributed by John Gaston on Oct 13, 2016
     | 4,986 views

    America is at the Precipice. Rather than “voter disgust” depriving us of the will to vote, it’s more crucial than ever that we get involved in our representative government.

    WHY THIS ELECTION IS CRUCIAL Ps. 33:12 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: SAGE THEN, POLITICIAN TODAY 1. Two men who lived in a small village got into a terrible dispute that they could not resolve. So they decided to talk to the town sage (wise man). 2. The first man went to the sage’s home and told ...read more

    Seek And You Will Find…great Expectations

    Jesus is the new covenant that God promised to his people in Jeremiah 31:31-34. In Jesus, God united us to him with bonds that can never be broken, and through this new covenant, we and Jesus can look death in the eye and see victory.

    Today’s Gospel passage marks the beginning of a change in Jesus’ ministry. The coming of the Greeks is seen as anticipating the coming of the Gentiles into the community of believers. While it is true that before the events in our Gospel reading Jesus spoke to the woman at the well and ...read more

    Surrender Your Way To Victory

    based on 4 ratings
     | 14,149 views

    Surrender to God is the way to a blessed life. It is not a commitment to God that we asking for, which focuses on what we can do for God. We are called to surrender our lives to Him.

    The way to a blessed life is to allow God to take control, when we invite Him into every area of our lives. • In Rom 12:1 Paul says, “...I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God - this is your spiritual act of worship.” • Gal ...read more

    Peace: The Gift Of Peace Series

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Aug 23, 2012
     | 28,477 views

    God's peace is relational, not circumstantial. It is active and not passive. The Lord actively dispenses peace to those who minds are stayed upon Him. So keep our focus on Him and keep on praying.

    John 14:27 “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” It is not the Lord’s will for us to be troubled and in fear. He wants to give us peace. Peace is what everyone needs. ...read more

     | 9,134 views

    There are instances when we are called on to bear the burdens of our brethren making it bearable for them, and then there is that time when we must bear our own burden, in doing the work we are called to, by fulfilling our ministry in Christ.

    Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ. For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he ...read more
