    Summer Of Sin #2 Envy Series

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jun 20, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,747 views

    Envy is a condition so poisonous that we’re not able to rejoice in the moment and enjoy what we have, but instead, find fault with it and say, “This isn’t good enough.” The root of it is that we don't trust God is caring for us.

    Summer of Sin #2. ENVY Num. 11:4-6 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Ryan Carlson, 16-year-old, was out with friends one night at 8 p.m. when suddenly he realized it was Father's Day and he had neglected to buy a card for dad. 2.

    Halloween: Is Evil A Red Herring?

    Contributed by Scott Maze on May 19, 2021
     | 3,323 views

    The roots of Halloween have to do with pagan rituals but today, it’s more a night to celebrate. Not everything connected with the modern celebration is all fun and games. Any believer who is sensitive to the Holy Spirit will pull back on a number of elements associated with this celebration.

    According to the National Retail Federation, Americans will spend a projected $8.8 billion dollars on the holiday called Halloween in 2019. Almost 30 million will dress up and the average person will spend over $86 to celebrate. In fact, I have a neighbor who decorates more for Halloween than any ...read more

    He Calls You By Name

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 30, 2025
     | 155 views

    John’s resurrection account reveals a quiet but profound truth: belonging comes before understanding. This message invites weary believers to release the pressure to prove their faith and rediscover a resurrection life rooted in being known, named, and kept—while still on the road.

    Introduction John tells us that Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark. That detail matters. Not because it is poetic, but because it is honest. This is not the hour of confidence or clarity. This is the hour when grief wakes before reason does. The hour when the body ...read more

     | 2,943 views

    We hear the word "repent" or "repentance" many times through scripture. But what does it really mean? Translated from the Hebrew word Teshuvah, we can dig deeper by understanding the root meaning of this Hebrew word.

    Inexpressible Joy

    Contributed by Dr. Jonathan Vorce on Dec 1, 2024
     | 1,018 views

    This kind of joy is not rooted in the absence of struggle or challenges but springs from a deeper place—a place anchored in God's promises. Today, we will explore this profound joy, its foundation, its vast greatness, and how it can be truly ours.

    1 Peter 1:6-9 Introduction A Kid Anticipating Christmas Use the excitement of a child counting down to Christmas morning. The child’s joy isn’t just about the day arriving; it’s about the hope and anticipation of what the day will bring. Similarly, our joy in Christ is grounded in the ...read more

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 25, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,390 views

    If we harbor hatred or bitterness in our hearts, it leads to disharmony, dissension, bickering and slander amongst brothers. God’s word teaches us how to root out bitterness and be reconciled to one another so there is perfect peace and harmony amongst us.

    Esau reconciled with Jacob We read in Genesis 33:4, “When Esau saw Jacob, he ran to meet him. He put his arms around Jacob, hugged his neck, and kissed him. Then they both cried.” (ERV) The above mentioned verse portrays what transpired between Esau and Jacob who were twin brothers, when they met ...read more

    What Does "morality" Even Mean?

    Contributed by Ian Hyde on Nov 24, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,227 views

    How do we define morality in an increasingly relativistic, materialistic world? When we realize our inherent blind spots, we find that morality must be rooted in something outside of ourselves, and only the example of the incarnate Christ is firm foundation enough for discerning right from wrong.

    A CLASH OF WORLDVIEWS In our passage this morning, Paul is speaking to the faithful in the church at the Greek colony of Colossae, now in modern day Turkey. Many of these believers came from a pagan background. They didn’t grow up with the benefit of stories about God’s providence or saving work ...read more

    based on 95 ratings
     | 18,223 views

    Sad to say there are too many Christians that are walking around with an, "OUT OF ORDER," sign about them. They are not in a fit state to be used of the Master, nor are they producing the fruit that they should be producing.

    Out of Order 1 Peter 3:15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and [be] ready always to [give] an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: Recently there were those in the UK who were opposed to the war in Iraq (2003) and decided upon a ...read more
