    Philippians 3:1-11 teaches us that right standing before God comes only through faith in Christ.

     | 4,344 views

    You ever wonder why lying was included in the same list with Murder and Adultery? Here is a look at where lying came from and what it cost us to lie

    A couple of weeks we got a glimpse into Han’s character when we watched him reveal his duplicity to Ana, his fiancé. It appears that he wooed her simply to become Prince and then kill the queen to assume the throne of Arendelle. And I asked the question “What isn’t this man ...read more

    A Return To Civility: 9 Do Not Lie Series

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on Aug 24, 2024
     | 492 views

    lies, distortion, exaggeration. They are all they same. This message looks at why we lie and the damage those lies can cause to others and to us.

    I think that if we were honest today, we’d all agree that there is a feeling of violation that happens when we feel that we have been deceived. Most relationships can take almost anything except deceit. It was Friedrich Nietzsche who said, “I'm not upset that you lied to me, I'm upset ...read more

     | 809 views

    Message 14 in an expositional series through Paul's "second" letter to the church in the ancient Greek city of Corinth where he defends his apostleship and corrects serious doctrinal errors within this young church.

    Some of you may not know this about me, but I am in fact bi-lingual. I am fluent in English and sarcasm. And because that is true, I love the verses in 2 Corinthians 11:16-33, if you want to turn with me there this morning. We have been studying the book of 2 Corinthians together for a few months ...read more

    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,180 views

    You see anxiety is like a sickness. It is a spiritual illness that needs a cure. And we have in these verses Philippians 4:4-7 the prescription that God gives for an anxious heart.

    Do people really struggle with anxiety? Is that something that is real or are we just talking when we say people in our day have anxious hearts? You have heard of Ann Landers, she got about 10,000 letters a month about people’s problems. She was asked, what is the number one problem that people ...read more

    Are we ready for the time of Tribulation that lies ahead? All Scripture quotes are from the NASB.

    As we look at the events of recent history, in this country and around the world, we wonder are we seeing the beginnings of the end times? We ask the question, when will Jesus come back?

    A look at two of the sections in 1 Timothy that deal with the pastoral role.

    - First, let me say up front that this is not going to be an exciting sermon. I say that because the subject is one that is not particularly pressing.

    Paul Vs Stephen (About The Resurrection Of Jesus)

    Contributed by Je Layugan on Oct 17, 2023
     | 1,424 views

    Paul and his friends could not win an argument against Stephen. In the end, Paul had an epiphany which lies in the understanding that God's love extends not only to Stephen and those he once persecuted but encompasses everyone, including himself.

    First, I am praying that at the end of this sermon, 1. We would have the desire to experience the deepest significance of Jesus’ resurrection in our lives. 2. We will never think of Paul’s story and Easter, the same way again. [PAUL/SAUL] • Paul was born, in about the same year or a little later ...read more

    God’s interest isn’t limited to whether or not you are swearing falsely. God’s interest is in whether or not you are speaking falsely.

    I’ve been racking my brains all week to find a lead-in to this week’s commandment without referring to politics. But I keep coming back to it like a moth to a candle. At least we’re no longer right in the middle of actual accusations of perjury... but the question of truth vs. political advantage ...read more

    This sermon looks carefully at a highly-trained missionary associate and his #1 problem.

    THE DYING FIRE Text: II Timothy 1:6 It’s just about over for the Apostle Paul. He’s soon to die and he knows it. The executioner’s sword will flash and a great tongue for God will be silenced. The little tentmaker is about to meet his Maker. His own tent is about to be removed. He ...read more

    INCONSISTENT CLAIMS - “ABRAHAM IS OUR FATHER” Verses 39-41a They claimed a linage to Abraham as their ticket to heaven.
