    In a world filled with temporary pleasures, fleeting happiness, and countless promises that do not last, God offers us something eternal, unshakable, and life-transforming. And it is summed up in two of the most powerful verses in all of Scripture — John 3:16–17

    Go! And Embrace the Greatest Gift of All Introduction – A Question That Demands an Answer If I were to ask you today, what is the greatest gift you have ever received? — what would you say? Perhaps it was something expensive, something sentimental, or something you desperately needed at the time. ...read more

     | 2,780 views

    Last week I talked about the fact that church growth is not our responsibility. Jesus said, "I will build my church." Today I want us to talk about what is our responsibility as a church. Our job is Gospel growth, not church growth

    On Election Day, citizens of our country participate in the greatest honor and responsibility we have — voting for those whom we want to lead our local, state, and national governments. As Christians, we have a greater responsibility to ensure that Jesus is honored in our vote.

    The Book Of Galatians – Chapter 5:12-15 - Message 19 – Freedom Brings Extra Responsibility – How To Love One Another, And Christian Cannibalism Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 21, 2024
     | 707 views

    Salvation brings freedom, but is that freedom a licence to sin? Paul uses strong language against the false teachers. We look at serving one another in love and what that means, and finish with considering “Christian cannibalism”.

    THE BOOK OF GALATIANS – CHAPTER 5:12-15 - MESSAGE 19 – FREEDOM BRINGS EXTRA RESPONSIBILITY – HOW TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER, AND CHRISTIAN CANNIBALISM Galatians is a powerful book. Perhaps in this letter Paul’s emotions and spirit are turned over more than in any other letter as he combats the false ...read more

    I just can't believe it! Ever said that? That was a common response by those to whom Jesus appeared after his resurrection and it's still a rather common response by many today. Don't be surprised! Be ready!

    God had chosen Daniel for special serive but before being entrusted with responsibility his spiritual character was tested.

    DANIEL 1 - THE MAKING OF A CHARACTER Three times in the book Daniel is referred to as a man "highly esteemed", or as the Authorised Version puts it, "a man greatly beloved".

    The rebellious want to believe a lie, escape responsibility and avoid God, but the people of God are called to model truth and love.

    Very often, on my day off, I enjoy going to the state forest near Loudonville and hiking through the woods. I put something to eat and drink in my pack and head out. I am energized by being alone where there are no phones or other means of communication — except the best communication one can ...read more

    Our rights and responsibilities are like the tension on the trigger of a loaded gun; properly handled they are a blessing -- improperly handled they are dangerous.
