    Stop Telling God What To Do

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 27, 2025
     | 88 views

    How Prayer Changes Us Before It Changes Anything Else. Prayer is not controlling outcomes but aligning with God’s heart, trusting Him fully, and joining His transforming work in people’s lives.

    There are phrases that sound almost sacrilegious in a prayer meeting. Not curse words. Just sentences that don’t fit the script Christian culture hands us. And the moment they come out of your mouth, the atmosphere shifts. Forks freeze above plates. Eyes widen. Someone nearly inhales a dinner ...read more

    The Challenge And The Call Series

    The Rich Young Ruler is the only person we see in the New Testament who was invited to follow Jesus who walked away. This message takes a deeper dive into the story of the Rich Young Ruler

    I remember when I used to answer every call that came in on our telephone with a sense of excitement and anticipation. In the days before caller ID, spam calls, and scam offers, answering the phone was always a bit of a mystery. You never knew who might be calling. And of course, you always hoped ...read more

    "The Forgotten Man Of Christmas,” (Christmas Sermon)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 17, 2025
     | 586 views

    Today like ministers across this great nation I want to preach a sermon about Christmas. But in this Christmas sermon I feel led to take a different approach from most sermons that are being preached today. Today I want to preach about THE FORGOTTEN MAN OF CHRISTMAS!!!

    Text: Introduction: • Generally, Mary the mother of Jesus is the focus of attention normally in a Christmas sermon. • But there is another individual that is equally important in the Christmas story, and I want to focus on JOSEPH, THE EARTHLY FATHER OF OUR LORD JESUS. THE FORGOTTEN MAN ...read more

     | 25 views

    The Good Samaritan exposes self-justification, lets the law speak fully, and leads us to salvation received through mercy, not performance.

    Everyone seems to know the story of the Good Samaritan. It is one of those rare biblical stories that has escaped the walls of the church and entered everyday language. Hospitals are named after him. Laws are named after him. Charities bear his name. Even people who have never opened a Bible still ...read more

    God Uses The Ordinary To Do The Extraordinary

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 24, 2025
     | 66 views

    It is amazing how some things never change. For example, when Christ was here on earth they had two kinds of men, as we have today. • They had the ordinary man • They had the extraordinary man

    It never ceases to amaze me the people that God chooses to do His work. Such as… (1) David. In 1 Samuel 16:1-12 we read how… • Saul had been rejected as king and God sent Samuel to anoint a new king. Vs. 1-3 • Samuel went. Vs. 4-5 • Jesse and his sons were summoned to the sacrifice vs ...read more

    This sermon encourages confronting fear with faith in God, using the story of Exodus as an example of divine victory over fear and adversity.

    Good morning, church family. It's a joy to gather together! To come together as one body, to worship, to pray, to learn, and to grow. It's a beautiful thing that we have this time, this place, this community. We are here, not by accident, but by divine appointment. There's a purpose to our ...read more

    The Mission And Calling PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Sep 30, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 104 views

    Jesus personally calls and empowers ordinary people to bring hope and healing, inviting us to trust his authority and join his compassionate mission.

    Friends, imagine Jesus speaking your name with a smile. Picture calloused hands from a carpenter’s bench reaching for ordinary people with ordinary lives—fishermen with tired shoulders, a tax collector with a checkered reputation, men whose resumes looked unimpressive by any earthly standard. Yet ...read more

     | 99 views

    God uses our ordinary gifts and daily acts of service to bless others, display His grace, and bring glory to Jesus in everyday life.

    Friends, can we talk about the quiet heroes God sends our way? The ones with flour on their aprons and prayer on their lips; the ones who show up with a casserole, a kind word, a seat at the table. I think of a dear woman I knew—no spotlight, no stage—just a well-worn Bible, a wobbly kitchen chair, ...read more

     | 131 views

    The sermon emphasizes the vital role of gathering as a church community to encourage, support, and strengthen one another in love and faith as we follow Christ.

    There’s a sacred sweetness in the sound of gathered voices. A familiar face across the aisle. A hug that lingers just a moment longer than usual. Coffee cups, creaky pews, and kind words. It all whispers a truth our souls know well: we are meant to be together. Life presses in with long weeks and ...read more

     | 147 views

    God offers unshakeable peace and renewed strength in life’s storms when we bring our fears to Him and trust in His faithful presence.

    Some of us walked in today with our shoulders tight and our phones buzzing. Headlines howl. Schedules stretch. Hearts race. You know the feeling—when the ground under your feet seems to shift and your peace feels paper-thin. In those hours, we want something steady, something sure. We long for a ...read more

     | 97 views

    God’s promises are received by faith, not by our efforts; grace, not performance, secures our acceptance and hope in Christ.

    Some of us walked in today with lists—mental ledgers of what we did right and where we fell short. We carry them like heavy backpacks. We whisper, “Maybe if I try harder, God will be pleased.” And our hearts grow tired, tight, and tentative. Then we come to Romans 4 and hear a fresh breeze blow ...read more

    Al5 PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 10, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 72 views

    Every believer is uniquely gifted and essential to the church; God values and uses each person’s contribution to build up the body of Christ.

    If you’ve ever felt like the spare part in a drawer full of useful tools, this word is for you. If you’ve wondered, “Do I really belong? Do I matter here?” the answer from heaven’s heart is yes. You matter to God, and you matter to us. The church is a living, breathing body. Christ is the Head. And ...read more

    God lovingly searches and guides our hearts, illuminating our true priorities so we pursue what truly matters and find purpose in His presence and direction.

    Friends, welcome. There’s a candle God has placed within you—a steady, searching flame that glows in the quiet corners of your soul. You feel it when the house finally settles for the night and the noise goes still. You sense it on the commute, when the dashboard hums and your heart starts ...read more

     | 88 views

    True contentment comes not from circumstances or possessions, but from trusting in God’s constant presence and faithfulness in every moment of our lives.

    Some of us walked in today with hearts humming like a beehive—busy with bills, budgets, and bank balances. We feel it in our shoulders, see it in our calendars, hear it in the sighs we release in traffic and the whispers we mutter at the mailbox. We carry comparison like a backpack of bricks. We ...read more

    Trusting God in seasons of waiting, we cultivate patience and steadfast hearts, confident that He is working and His promises will be fulfilled in His perfect timing.

    Friends, if your calendar has been crammed with waiting—waiting on a phone call, waiting on a breakthrough, waiting on the fog to lift—then you are in good company today. The Bible does not blush about the ache of “How long, Lord?” It speaks straight to the heart that beats a little faster when the ...read more
