    (2) God Said It Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 30, 2025
     | 336 views

    John 4 -- Nobleman's Son. The second sign in John's Gospel shows the Word made flesh has limitless authority and power.

    Introduction I want to begin today with a simple refrain you may have heard before: God said it. I believe it. And that settles it for me. That little line may sound like something out of a gospel chorus, but it’s actually the heartbeat of the second sign in John’s Gospel. We’re in John chapter ...read more

    Walking Through Chaos Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 6, 2025
     | 182 views

    The Father who commands paralysis to move also commands storms to rest—calling His children to rise, walk, and trust His steady presence.

    (John 5 & John 6:16–21 — The Lame Man and the Storm) --- Introduction — When Life Won’t Move Have you ever been stuck? Not the “traffic jam on I-15” kind of stuck. I mean the deeper kind — when nothing in your life will budge. You pray, you plan, you push, and still it feels like the wheels ...read more

    The Enemy’s Final Defeat Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 6, 2025
     | 244 views

    God overturns every evil plot; favor follows surrender, and the cross turns Satan’s gallows into unstoppable victory for God’s people.

    Esther isn’t just a story; she’s a sign. She’s the picture of a bride standing tall in a collapsing world. We’re not in the first of the last days. We’re in the last of the last days! Can somebody say Amen! Before that trumpet sounds, there’s gonna be a stirring in God’s people like this world ...read more

    Standing In The Gap Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 6, 2025
     | 339 views

    God still seeks intercessors who stand between judgment and mercy; prayerful courage releases divine authority and brings deliverance to His people.

    Introduction – The Call to Stand Last week we saw Esther’s victory and Haman’s fall. But there’s more to the story. Before there was a banquet, before the gallows were reversed, there was a woman on her knees saying, “If I perish, I perish.” Every victory begins with somebody willing to stand in ...read more

     | 215 views

    Christ’s finished work overturns the enemy’s decree; His authority seals our deliverance, and we now carry His victory everywhere.

    Introduction – The Victory Is Not in Doubt We’ve walked with Esther from fear to favor, from risk to reward, from prayer to power. We saw a little orphan girl rise to become a queen. We saw Haman hang on the gallows he built for someone else. We’ve watched the story turn. Now, in chapter 8, ...read more

    When all seemed lost, God reversed the decree—turning fear into faith, sorrow into joy, and defeat into glorious victory.

    Introduction - Children’s Prayers A mother was teaching her three-year-old the Lord’s Prayer. Night after night they practiced, and one evening the little girl said, “Mommy, I can do it myself.” So she folded her tiny hands and prayed, “Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us some ...read more

    When The Lights Go Out

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 30, 2025
     | 210 views

    Jesus rekindles our passion to shine. His authority sends us, His Spirit empowers us, and His mission becomes our greatest thrill again

    It happens slowly. You rarely notice when the first lights begin to flicker. A bulb gives up in the back hallway. One more goes dark in the kitchen. The living room dims a little, but you don’t think much about it. You just squint more. You buy a cheaper lamp. You hold your phone screen a little ...read more

    Is There A Word From The Lord?

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 30, 2025
     | 313 views

    God’s final word still stands: Go with Christ’s authority, fulfill His mission, and trust His presence until the end.

    Introduction — The Question That Still Echoes Jeremiah’s words come from a dark hour in Israel’s story. The city was surrounded, the king frightened, and the people restless. So Zedekiah sent a messenger to the prophet asking one desperate question: “Is there a word from the Lord?” It’s the same ...read more

    Find Your Towel

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 1, 2025
     | 195 views

    Jesus gives authority to serve, not rule—power shaped like a towel, lifting others, revealing love’s quiet strength, and mirroring His heart.

    1. The Ladder and the Towel My senior pastor once stood with me in the church fellowship hall staring at a row of framed photographs—portraits of evangelists who had conducted meetings through the years. His finger paused on one. “H. M. S. Richards, Sr.,” he said softly. Then came a line I’ll ...read more

     | 2,040 views

    As God has authority over all of life, so Jesus has authority over all of life.

    For the next 4 weeks we will be studying from the John 5. This chapter deals with the authority and power that Jesus has. In fact, chapter 5 reveals Jesus to be the Authority over all of life. Jesus is equal with God and that is claimed later on in this chapter. So, He is due the same worship, ...read more

    Patience And Peace In Personal Storms

    Contributed by William Baeta on Jun 22, 2024
     | 2,745 views

    “Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, ‘Peace, be still!’ And the wind ceased and there was a great calm… and they said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?” (Mark 4:39, 41)

    There is a reason for every problem and there is a solution to every problem. Problems are a part of life and result from the storms we encounter in life. God does not promise the believer a storm free experience. What He promises is His presence in the storm and His deliverance from the storm. ...read more

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jul 29, 2024
     | 1,497 views

    First, we are created in the image and likeness of God with unlimited potential and creativity and told to have dominion. Second, we can reign in life through Jesus Christ regardless of the environment in the world, country, or the state.

    Sermon: The Call to Reign in Life Through Jesus Christ Scripture: Genesis 1:26-28 “Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness. Let them rule the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, the domestic animals all over the earth, and all the animals that crawl on the earth. So God ...read more

    The Unfailing Word

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Nov 2, 2023
     | 1,567 views

    The authority of Scripture is crucial to our faith. The Bible is either God’s word or mere human opinion.

    I give you my word!” How often have we heard this? We hear it from politicians, salespersons, recruiters, unlicensed contractors, and unreliable people in general. When people give us their “word,” how dependable is their word? When they make claims and promises, we need to know their basis of ...read more

     | 2,621 views

    Notice Paul prays for their spiritual insight, inner strength, and the discovery of God’s endless supply of power. Paul wants God to help the believers discover their purpose and to understand God’s truth, so they can know God better, and be filled to overflowing with God’s power.

    Sermon – Paul’s Prayer For Grace-filled Believers Scripture - Ephesians 1:15-23 “Ever since I first heard of your strong faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for God’s people everywhere, 16 I have not stopped thanking God for you.
