    Explores how our strength comes from God, demonstrated through Samson's life, his prayer in weakness, God's steadfast grace, and the power of the Holy Spirit.

    Good morning, cherished family of God. We gather here today, not as mere individuals, but as a collective body, a family knit together by the love of our Lord Jesus Christ. We are here to learn, to grow, and to be transformed by the word of God. Today, we turn our hearts and minds to the book of ...read more

    Jesus’ Chooses His First Team Members

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Feb 18, 2014
     | 4,601 views

    Are we willing to make his service the priority in our life? Are we proclaiming the gospel in the confidence that comes from knowing Jesus, who taught with authority, who cast out demons and healed people of incurable diseases?

    Jesus begins his ministry with this clear announcement: “The time is fulfilled.” That is, it’s complete. Time’s up. We’re at the end of the line. Notice that John, the one who’s like Elijah, has finished his ministry. Mark wants to make it clear that the time of ...read more

    God creates us for His purpose, and equips according to such a need

    I’m not asking for a show of hands, but do you feel called by God for a particular purpose, or even being given an increasing number of tasks, to fulfill God’s purpose in your life? Do you feel God has given you physical and/or spiritual gifts to achieve His purposes for your life? His gifts may be ...read more

    Fishing For People For The Kingdom

    This incident probably reminded the disciples of the time 3 years earlier when Jesus asked them to cast their nets again. That was the time when he first called them to be fishers of men.

    The disciples have seen the resurrected Jesus, alive and well. He appeared to them on the evening of Resurrection Sunday (20:19) – Easter Day. On that occasion He commissioned them – He authorised them to go – saying, “As the Father has sent me, I am sending you” (20:21); and he then appeared to ...read more

    When We Are Called To Those Who Are Hostile

    After being abused and accused by his fellow Jews, Jeremiah’s counsel was sought and ignored. Modern believers need to take note.

    If I hadn’t had a similar, though less lethal, experience, I probably wouldn’t relate to that scene in “The Godfather” where the old Mafioso tells the young boss how the traitor would try to kill him after his death. With me, we were in a nice restaurant in San Francisco (my executive editor and I) ...read more

    when we embrace the mission of Jesus, we make a commitment to hazardous work. And yet one of the things we see in the church today is that following Jesus has become something far less than that. It’s more about comfort than danger and belief rather than

    Risk Takers Matthew 10:16-22, The Message Elizabeth Elliott wrote a book called, Through Gates of Splendor. In it, she tells the story of her husband, Jim, who was one of the five missionaries killed as they tried to evangelize the Waodani tribe in Ecuador.

    An outline of a short talk plus video link given at our Come Together informal worship service on Sunday 10 March 2013

    Bishop Tom Wright’s translation of Matthew 6 verses 5 to 8 goes like this: Jesus said, “When you pray, you mustn’t be like the play actors. They love to pray standing on street corners so that people will notice them. I tell you the truth: they have received their reward in full. No: when you pray, ...read more

    As Jesus called the disciples, He calls you and I today. Tag, you're it.

    3/21/21 A.M. “Tag” Matthew 4:13-22 School Games #2 A couple of weeks ago I preached an IMPORTANT MESSAGE on, “RED ROVER, RED ROVER let Mitch come on over.” If you missed it, you’ll be OK.

    A heartfelt sermon as I resigned from a church to accept a call from another church.

    Sermon for 8/15/2010 Resignation Introduction: Conflicts are not uncommon, but when the preacher and song leader get into it, stand aside. One week, the preacher preached on commitment, and how we should move forward into doing service for others. After this sermon, the song leader led the ...read more

    The disciple Peter is the first mentioned in all four Gospels. Jesus knew Peter was a diamond in the rough and not merely a rock.

    Peter was the leader of the disciples. Simon was his real name and Jesus gave him the name Peter in addition. Peter means “Rock” (Petros in the Greek) and the church was founded on this rock. John MacCarthur refers to him as the disciple with the foot shaped mouth. His name is ...read more

    There are no free rides in the calling of God. One must be decided and determined to get on board and pay the fare.

    It is going to cost something. Luke 9:57-62 Jesus and the disciples have left Samaria in route to Jerusalem. 2 Men sought to follow Jesus of their own accord. 1 Man was asked to Jesus to follow him. Jesus does not candy coat the calling of the ministry. He warns us up front that there is a ...read more
