    Follow Jesus Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 23, 2025
     | 197 views

    Following Jesus means trusting His leadership, surrendering self-rule, embracing transformation, and walking daily with the Shepherd whose presence shapes every step.

    There is a tenderness in the way Jesus calls people. He never shouts to impress the crowd. He never manipulates the moment. He never forces Himself upon anyone. Instead, He speaks in a way that reaches the deepest places of the heart and invites a response that is both personal and ...read more

     | 545 views

    Those who seek God and desire to have an intimate relationship with Him, will truly be blessed and will become a blessing to many. Abraham and David are great examples to us of men who truly desired God and sought after Him with all their heart and thereby became a great blessing to many.

    We read in Psalms 53:2, “From heaven God looks down to see if anyone is wise enough to search for him.” (CEV) As we read Psalm 53:2, we realize something very important, that God is looking down from heaven to see if there is anyone among the mankind whom He has created, who are truly seeking ...read more

    Changing your perspective can help you stop automatic negative attitudes, speech, thoughts and navigate situations with a more balanced outlook. The Jewish people needed a different perspective, so God sends Haggai.

    Sermon – Change Your Perspective From Gloomy to Glorious! Scripture Lesson – Haggai 2:1-9 “On the twenty-first day of the seventh month, the word of the Lord came through the prophet Haggai: “Speak to Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, to Joshua son of Jozadak, the high priest, and to ...read more

    An Extraordinary Commission (Part 2)

     | 416 views

    Jesus gave His disciples a commission to go and preach; to not only do good deeds, but use words. He would provide them food, clothing, and shelter for their journey, and the Spirit would guide them to those receptive to the gospel.

    I have entitled our sermon this morning, “An Extraordinary Commission,” and this will be Part 2. The word “extra-ordinary” means “outside, above and beyond the ordinary,” which is what we saw in our last message, when Jesus gave His disciples “power over unclean spirits” (Matthew 10:1); and ...read more

     | 524 views

    Acts 19:21-41 shows us how God’s sovereign power confronts idolatry, calling his people to trust him and continue proclaiming the gospel boldly, even in the face of opposition.

    Introduction In today’s text, Acts 19:21-41, we encounter a city in turmoil—a riot ignited by the powerful disruption of the gospel. Ephesus, a hub of idolatry and cultural pride, was shaken not by force or political movements but by the transformative power of God’s truth. Acts 19:21-14, ...read more

    How Does The Bible Describe God?

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on May 9, 2025
     | 743 views

    If someone asked you to describe your best friend, you would be able to describe them thoroughly. If someone asked you to describe God according to what the scriptures says about Him, COULD YOU DESCRIBE HIM THOROUGHLY?

    It is important that we learn all we can learn about God from the scriptures. Why? • Because we really cannot WORSHIP GOD unless WE KNOW HIM. • Because we really cannot SERVE GOD unless WE KNOW HIM. • Because we cannot BECOME if we do not know what kind of God He is. You see, a lot of folks ...read more

    If we want our marriages to be vibrant and happy, we must work towards getting back to the love we had for each other when we first got married. Here are some practical counsel from God’s word on how we can make love grow in our marriages.

    We read in Ecclesiastes 4:9, “Two are better off than one, because together they can work more effectively.” (GNB) The counsel that we receive from the word of God as mentioned in the above verse, is that two are far better than one, as together they can work far more efficiently on any given ...read more
