    Good Cheer For The Right Thing

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Oct 26, 2025
     | 155 views

    When a paralytic’s friends brought him before Jesus, the savior’s first words to him were not “Rise and walk,” but “Be of good cheer, your sins are forgiven you.” Today we look at why forgiveness is the greatest miracle of all.

    Good MORNING. Today, we saw one of the most fun miracles in the Gospels, one just about every Jesus movie likes to include, the healing of a paralyzed man who gets dramatically lowered by ropes into Peter’s house through his roof. For context, Jesus had just returned from Gadara, a Gentile town ...read more

    You Are Uncontainable

     | 555 views

    The enemy often tries to suppress, limit, and stop the progress of God's people. However, the power of God upon His children makes them uncontainable. No affliction, opposition, or attack can stop a person whom God has destined to rise.

    YOU ARE UNCONTAINABLE By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Exodus 1:12 "But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and grew. And they were grieved because of the children of Israel." Supporting Texts: Isaiah 54:17, Genesis 50:20, Romans 8:31, Acts 5:38-39, 2 Corinthians ...read more

    Life is filled with uncertainty. The world around us is constantly changing—political systems rise and fall, financial markets fluctuate, people come and go. Yet, in the midst of all this change, we have a firm foundation in Jesus Christ, who never changes.

    The Traits Of A Godly Leader Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on May 28, 2024
     | 1,460 views

    It is evident that the modern church needs godly leaders. We need those who will rise to the occasion and use their spiritual gifts to influence others in a positive manner. We all influence others – either in a positive way or a negative way, but our influence is inevitable.

    The Traits of a Godly Leader Nehemiah 1: 1-4 “Every believer is a minister or servant of God who should be serving God and exerting influence on others through his/her local church. Leadership is one person influencing positively another person. Christian leadership is one believer spiritually ...read more

     | 1,034 views

    Have you experienced a season in your life when you were broken and weary? Did it seem to go on and on? Did it seem to never end?

    My wife and I were traveling to see a musical in Charlotte, Mi Saturday. We’ve often felt a divine connection with the bald eagle. I recall numerous times when God would use the bald eagle to give me a nudge in the Spirit, or give me a sense of hope for the future. I saw eagles talon locking over ...read more

     | 11,161 views

    Jesus returned to Capernaum, creating quite a stir. Word spread that He was in the house and a multitude gathered. We have the opportunity to meet with the Master at any time for any need. As we come by faith, He responds to our need.

    Commotion in Capernaum Mark 2: 1-12 Following a season of ministry within the region of Galilee, Jesus has returned to Capernaum.

     | 9,103 views

    God went to great lengths to bring together Cornelius and Peter. On this meeting hinged the salvation of all the world. With the “keys” of his Apostolic ministry, Peter opened the gates, not realizing that billions of people would enter.

    WHEN PETER GOT HUNGRY Acts 10:1-48 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Things are going badly for Israel. The economy is in a tail spin, inflation is getting higher and immigrants are flooding in from all over. Problems, problems, problems, but what to do? 2.

    Contributed by Dan Cormie on Feb 16, 2013
     | 3,851 views

    Why combine the two terms, pastor and teacher into one category? What is the primary roll of the pastor and how is it to be accomplished? The Bible details high standards for those who would be elders or overseers in the church, who can meet these stand

    Now Is The Time

     | 19,397 views

    Israel had wandered from God, even though He sought them to return. He wanted to bless them, but they had to meet God's conditions. The church has much potential, but we too must return to the Lord.

    Now is the Time Hosea 10:12 Over the past few weeks we have considered the condition of Israel and her need for repentance. God loved His people and desired to have a fulfilling relationship with them. Unfortunately they sought the ways of the world and the desires of the flesh while neglecting ...read more

     | 3,938 views

    One day in God’s courts is better than a thousand elsewhere because it’s where we meet with God, because of the pleasures and benefits it gives, and because it's a symbol of better things to come.

     | 104 views

    Heartbreak may feel like the end of your story, but Jesus specializes in meeting us in the ashes and raising hope from the wreckage. This passage shows us how He moves toward us when we feel most lost.

    From Heartbreak to Hope (Expect the Unexpected • Week 2) INTRODUCTION — Heartbreak Is Real For All Of Us Last week we talked about how God often shows up in life’s interruptions — how the mundane can become miraculous.

    Series: Wow! Whose Young Daughter Is That? (Part 4) Where Did Father Elimelech Go Wrong?

    Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Mar 9, 2020
     | 3,008 views

    One thing the Book of Ruth tells us is death of Fatherhood and rise of Motherhood. All the men died – all the women lived. In today's society, fatherhood is on the decline. Elimelech wanted the best for his family. But some things went wrong. He resembles many fathers today.

     | 20,354 views

    In Acts 8 we meet just such a leader. •A man with a following; a man who is viewed by those around him as powerful and dynamic and charismatic. •Yet whose spirituality is just as phony as David Koresh or Marshall Applewhite.
