Why God Answers Prayer

Contributed by Mike Fogerson on Mar 18, 2013

God's provision is abundant, and He wants to bless us. We must remember that our ministry is not about hoarding resources but about sharing them with others. As we steward God's blessings and keep His end goal in mind, we will see measurable fruit in our mission.

Let's talk about something cool today. You know how we always worry about not having enough? Enough money, enough time, enough friends? Well, guess what? God's got us covered. He's like the ultimate provider. Remember that story in the Bible about the Israelites wandering in the desert? They were ...read more

Oops I Tried To Get Over On God Series

Contributed by Ed Amundson on Jul 5, 2014

Today’s Scripture shows us how Nimrod, a type of Antichrist, unified humanity using all its knowledge, science and resources to establish a city. By the way… Nimrod’s leadership over the people in his day was the exact opposite of what God commanded.

Today is the first Sunday after the 4th of July. On our church FB page I posted the Declaration of Independence with this comment: “Praise The Lord for providing the founding principles of the United States of America in the Bible. #ournationfromGodsinspiration” That one post caused ...read more

Preparing For Revival Series

Contributed by Brad Stone on Oct 15, 2019

It is important if we, as the church, ever plan or desire to see revival break forth in our church, that we make preparation prior to a series of meetings. Revival should always begin before a scheduled series of meetings and continue long after. (Compiled using resources from Sermon Central)

Preparing for Revival Joel 2:12 – 18 I always love reading “Top Ten” lists or seeing shows that present a “Top Ten” list of either funny videos, silly decisions or actions of people, so on so forth. In preparation for this message, I came across a top ten list that I found quite comical and I ...read more

I Have The Keys Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 1, 2003

For All Saints/All Souls: the Lord has the keys to the church, so we need not fear its future despite our locking up its resources; and He has the keys to our lives, so we need not lock ourselves in privacy; and He has the keys of eternal life.

Keys. I have keys. Lots and lots of keys. Thanks to keys, we can keep safe the things we consider valuable. But we are also kept from access to those things. Keys; we all have them, we all need them, we all appreciate them, but we all resent them at times. If you don’t have the right keys, ...read more

Staying Steady In Unsteady Times

Overcoming The World

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Dec 5, 2021

If you have faith in Christ, you already have every resource to be an overcomer. God doesn’t allow us to surrender to worldly pressure or to hide ourselves away. But He says that in Christ we can conquer and gain the victory. Who is it that will overcome and persevere? Only the one who believes!

What we do today isn’t very exciting. For we’re just a small church in a big world. We’re reading an old book, and we’re talking about an old story. Yet a Christian has been given different eyes, and we look at things in a different way. Beneath the surface, God helps us to see things as they ...read more
