Embracing Grace Series

Contributed by Rev. Matthew Parker on Oct 24, 2010

God’s Grace is something that is kinda simple but kinda hard to really understand. What does it mean to embrace God’s grace?

At the beginning of our current series on the book of Romans, I mentioned that one of the reasons that Paul wrote the book in the first place was to speak to some misunderstandings that had been circulating in the early church about his teachings in general. Nowhere was Paul more misunderstood ...read more

Burying The Dead Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Oct 31, 2010

One preacher decided not to baptize one young girl on October 31st because he didn’t want her to associate her baptism with Halloween - a season of death. Was he right?

OPEN: One of the boys in a Sunday School teacher’s class proudly announced to his teacher that he was being baptized the next Sunday. She told him that was really great, and he told her he was going to take his swim goggles. She was curious about why the youngster would want to wear his goggles ...read more

Contributed by Daniel Habben on Mar 29, 2010

Wanted: Dead AND Alive! God wants to see the old man in us with its sinful deeds and desires dead, while the new man, that part of a Christian which loves God, to be very much alive (Alfonso Espinosa). The “bounty hunter” who will make us dead and alive i

“Wanted: Dead or Alive!” Posters like this were common in the old West. If your picture was on such a poster, you were in big trouble. Dead or alive, it didn’t matter to the authorities. Either way they would pay the reward money to the bounty hunter who could bring you in. There ...read more

Resurrection Living Series

Contributed by C. Philip Green on Apr 1, 2010

If we want to live in resurrection power, we must consider ourselves saints (set apart from sin unto God) and commit ourselves to the Lord.

On March 19, 2005, when a resident at an extended care facility in British Columbia, Canada, died, the medical personnel did what they usually did.

Rendering Unto God What He Is Due

Contributed by James Cloud on Apr 11, 2010

In this life we tend to focus on things which have no weight in eternity. This homily expresses the need for personal responsibility.

Tonight’s thought is something that has been increasingly becoming somewhat of an obsession for me as a priest. I have been struck with the feeling that there is something coming very soon which we will all be affected with. My personal feelings have been running the gamut of sadness, ...read more

The Nature Of Grace Series

Contributed by Denn Guptill on May 16, 2010

A look at Grace demonstrated in the lives of Joseph, Moses, David and Peter

It seemed to make perfect sense: If the “Grace of God” was a good thing, and if the “Grace of God” was demonstrated through the forgiveness of sin, then the more we sinned than the more the Grace of God would be demonstrated. It seems to make perfect sense but it ...read more

The Truth And Nothing But The Truth Series

Contributed by Bruce Willis on Mar 8, 2008

This sermon is from the “exchanged life” perspective and seeks to teach that you can live in victory over sin in your life if you know the truth, will believe the truth and bring the truth on line in your life.

Seven Deadly Sins

Contributed by Denn Guptill on Mar 30, 2008

With the announcement of the Vatican that they were adding to the Seven Deadly Sins I thought it would be a good time to look at sin.

Has anyone been following the series in the Chronicle on the “Seven Deadly Sins?” It started last Saturday along with a report that the Catholic Church had modified the original list and added 7 more. Not sure that I necessarily agree with their selection of new “Sins” or even in their decision ...read more

Freedom

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Nov 8, 2007

The church must speak Gods truth even when the government of the day no longer wishes to hear it. Pray we find the courage our brave veterans posses so that we too can defend the faith from enemies both foreign and domestic and enjoy our freedom.

Freedom There are many kinds of freedom and many kinds of slavery. We can be free in our spirit and souls yet be enslaved and held prisoner by a government that does not recognize our God or our beliefs. We think of ancient times when Christians were brought into the arenas as slaves for the ...read more

Dead Mules Don't Work

Contributed by Mark Haines on Jan 12, 2007

Too many Christians settle for being forgiven and fail to recognize that dead sinners do not disobey God. We can live in obedience because we are alive to God and dead to sin.

My purpose is to be the Holy Spirit’s second witness calling God’s people in my care to surrender their lives to Jesus and to live in obedience to him. Response Goal: Individuals prompted by the Holy Spirit will surrender their lives to God in prayer – at the altar rail if they want to prayer ...read more
