THE TROUBLE WITH TRADITION Mark 7:1-13 You have probably heard about the man who was confused by the way his new bride baked a ham. Before putting it in the oven, she took a knife and trimmed off both ends of the ham. The husband asked, "Why did you do that?” The wife answered, "You ...read more

Successful Suffering Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 31, 2021

The difference between tragedy and triumph is all in how you count your trials. James says by an act of the will count it all joy when tried.

Imagine the testing of the body in such a sport as football. To be on your feet and seconds later brought to the ground hard and fast. Then to get up and do it again, and again, and again, but constantly moving forward. All of that falling is not what wins the game, but whether or not you win ...read more

On Membership Part Two Series

Contributed by Ken Mckinley on Jul 17, 2023

the Bible clearly teaches that Christians are members of the Body of Christ. But is local church membership Biblical? We examine this in this study. This is not a typical sermon, but more of a Bible study lesson for our congregation.

In doing some serious study on membership and what that looks like in the Church at a local level one encounters a potential problem. It just isn’t there. That’s not to say it is bad, wrong, or sinful to have formal membership rolls, as having such is very practical and quite helpful to local ...read more

Sermon # 46 - What God Desires Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 4, 2025

Jonah failed to understand the compassionate and merciful nature of God. We as a church must know the heart of God and be actively involved in sharing the good news of the gospel and inviting those outside to be part of God’s Kingdom.

We read in Jonah 4:8, “And it came to pass, when the sun did arise, that God prepared a vehement east wind; and the sun beat upon the head of Jonah, that he fainted, and wished in himself to die, and said, It is better for me to die than to live.” (KJV) As we observe the works of God they astound ...read more

The Power Of Obedience Series

Contributed by Apostle Dr. Belinda V. Broadnax on Oct 24, 2024

This sermon highlights the transformative power of obedience to God's voice. It explores how obedience deepens our relationship with God, brings blessings, and unlocks the fullness of His purpose in our lives.

There’s a significant difference between hearing God's voice and obeying it. Many believers listen to God’s voice, but far fewer follow through with obedience. James 1:22 offers us a stark reminder: "But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves." The ...read more

Transformation At The Jordan

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 2, 2025

The Jordan River that was overflowing miraculously parted for the Israelites, in that same River Jordan Naaman was healed of his leprosy, and Jesus was baptized in the same river. Miracles will happen in our lives when we too can trust God fully, and obey His Word implicitly.

Today’s meditation is based on Joshua 3:13, “When the priests who carry the Covenant Box of the LORD of all the earth put their feet in the water, the Jordan will stop flowing, and the water coming downstream will pile up in one place." (GNB) These are the words that Joshua received from God ...read more

Following The Leader

Contributed by Stuart Blount on Sep 6, 2001

What is authentic discipleship ? Surely it is that which Jesus taught. In this message we look at the terms Jesus laid down for those who would choose to follow him.

FOLLOWING THE LEADER The Terms of Authentic Discipleship The children’s game ‘following the leader’ has introduced all of us to the concept that Jesus sought to initiate among his DISCIPLES.
