    We all need a desired haven, seafarers in particular; a forgotten highly skilled workforce who life apart from the rest of us. This is a tribute to Sea Sunday, and the hardship mariners endure.

    Call On God In Worship! Series

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Oct 19, 2023
     | 1,742 views

    Today we are going to talk about worship - but not what we do in worship - how we do it! In our series of Calling on God, we have called upon Him for help, guidance, and belonging. Today we call upon Him in Worship.

    Call on God in Worship 2 Samuel 6:1-15 / Psalm 150 Introduction Humorist, Erma Bombeck, reported an experience she had in church. A row or two in front of her sat a mother with a normal five-year-old boy, which means, he couldn’t sit still. As he squirmed and looked over the pew at those behind ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 27, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,522 views

    Around the world are demonstrations in support of the Palestinians and Hamas, and bitterness against Israel, even hate. This article looks at that, plus the inroads of socialism and the origin of Allah, and the Islamic mind. Also a small look at how we got into this situation.

    YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW – ISRAEL AND HAMAS – AND THE WIDER NATIONS [1]. SHAMEFUL GODLESS DEMONSTRATIONS This message will be a bit political but we have to thread through, and tread carefully that we don’t miss the Christian implications of these events. I did post on the Hamas subject earlier ...read more

    The Politics Of Jesus

     | 1,579 views

    Christians think they align with Jesus' views. Some are surprised, others offended. Jesus’ campaign sounds like a liberal utopia because we’re not ready to let go of hate, we’re not ready to trust in God and not in the law. We have to transcend hate and show the mercy we’ve been shown by God.

    There are only two shows that I’ve ever watched the entire series. One of which I still own on DVD and have watched the entire series 3 times. If there was any show that I’d love to see still running today it would be this one. I’d love to see how it would interpret and respond to the issues of our ...read more

    The ultimate sign in John 20:1-31 teaches us that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and the only Savior of sinners.

    Introduction Today, I plan to conclude our sermon series that I have called “Signs.” Jesus performed thousands of miracles in his short ministry of two-and-a-half years. By these miracles, Jesus demonstrated that he had power over sickness, demons, nature, and even death itself. The Apostle ...read more

    A fig tree produces fruit, it produces figs, a wonderful fruit common in Israel in the middle east.

    “Mordecai was seven years old when he decided that God had called him to be an evangelist. He started by preaching to barnyard animals. He even tried to immerse a cat in a water trough.

    "In The Last Days” – Where On Earth Is This Going? Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 27, 2022
     | 3,562 views

    The signs of the times are indicating we live in the last days the bible speaks of. What are these "last days" and how do we read them against history? We look at the current events in the world to gain some insight. It will but get worse.

    “IN THE LAST DAYS” – WHERE ON EARTH IS THIS GOING? This is a biblical term found four times in the New Testament in the NASB. Only two of these will concern us in this message. They are – {{2Timothy 3:1 “Realise this, that IN THE LAST DAYS difficult times will come,”}} and {{2Peter 3:3 “Know ...read more

    Contributed by Joshua Blackmon on Nov 19, 2022
     | 1,901 views

    Luke 12:49-53 is paradoxical. Jesus is the Prince of Peace, but in this passage, He says He is bringing division. This sermon explores how this fits with the overall message of Luke.

    Harmony and Fire I. TEXT: Luke 12:49-53 (NRSV) “I came to bring fire to the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled! 50 I have a baptism with which to be baptized, and what stress I am under until it is completed! 51 Do you think that I have come to bring peace to the earth?

    This story places the Israelites’ emotional development pretty squarely in the adolescent stage, because they behaved just like a bunch of teenagers left too long with the keys to the wine cellar.

    How many of you have children? Did you have any idea, while you were painting the nursery and picking out your first set of onesies, how much of your life would get taken over? Children take a huge amount of time and attention. And of course it gets worse when they start to crawl and then to walk ...read more
