    "Ephpheta, Be Thou Opened”

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 30, 2018
     | 4,858 views

    We need to get very, very serious about promoting priestly vocations

    Eleventh Sunday after Pentecost Extraordinary Form “Ephpheta, be thou opened,” Jesus said, after groaning, “and immediately his ears were opened, and the impediment to his speech was loosed, and he spoke clearly.” Come to any baptism–as we’ll have here on Saturday the eighteenth, and you’ll hear ...read more

     | 4,626 views

    It’s important for us to look above what’s here on earth and to know where our treasures are. It’s also important for us to be true witnesses for God by showing others that we serve someone greater than us.

    hat would you say to someone if you knew you were speaking to them for the last time? What advice would you give? These same questions were likely on Paul’s mind when he wrote his second letter to Timothy. Paul wrote this letter from a prison cell in Rome, and he knew that he would soon be ...read more

    Paul's Sermon At Athens: The Right Place At The Right Time

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 7, 2021
     | 2,433 views

    Paul's preaching in the synagogues and the markets of Athens drew the attention of the city's philosophers and intellectuals who invited him to speak at the Areopagus. When the Gospel is proclaimed, it has the power to win souls for the glory of God (Hebrews 4:12).

    Paul's mission to carry the Gospel to the nations continued while he was in Athens. Even though persecution had driven him out of one area, the LORD in His Sovereignty placed Paul right where He wanted him, and that was at the intellectual capital of the Roman Empire, the city of Athens. ...read more

    A sermon inspired by the book For The Glory by Duncan Hamilton.

    Text: Matthew 5:38-47 In Duncan Hamilton’s biography For the Glory, we learn that Scotsman Eric Liddell’s greatest challenge came, not when his convictions about racing on Sunday during the 1924 Olympics were tested, but when he served as a missionary in China amid the Japanese ...read more

    The Gospel: For All Series

    Paul has expressed astonishment that churches of Galatia have turned from faith alone to faith plus law. He says what they have really done is moved from the true gospel to no gospel at all.

    Is the Gospel really for everybody? You have probably heard someone tell the humorous one liner; you can’t get there from here. That is what the Judaizers were telling the churches in Galatia about coming to Christ only they weren’t trying to be funny. There were a group of people ...read more

     | 4,942 views

    No matter what we are enduring at the moment, Jesus can bring a certain joy to our lives that circumstances cannot steal from us. Joy that comes from following Jesus is our constant companion, it is a gift from Him to our hearts.

    Following Jesus: Following Joy John 15:9-14 Introduction Some people believe that Joy is in short supply in our world. That’s not hard to believe, given the events of the past few months and the pandemic we are enduring day by day. The anger and unrest that rumbles beneath the surface, and ...read more

    Prodigality, Love And Grace Series

    Contributed by Garth Wehrfritz- Hanson on Mar 5, 2016
     | 5,797 views

    A few details of this beautiful parable that we may miss or take for granted because we think the story is so familiar.

    The so-called parable of the prodigal son is one of the—if not the—most beautiful stories in the whole Bible. God, it is pointed out, is like the father in the story. The beauty and power of this story is made very clear in the description and actions of the father. One of the dangers ...read more

    Am I Using Faulty Tools?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 30, 2023
     | 1,236 views

    The simple things or actions during our Christian walk of faith are just as important as with the things that seem major.

    2 Kings 6:1-7 Elisha has now succeeded Elijah as a prophet to the Northern Kingdom (2 Kings 2:1-18). He has by now already prophesied and God has performed a few miracles through him. But now we will see something peculiar, he makes an axe head float. This situation shows how God cares for His ...read more

    Aspects Of Endurance

    Contributed by Lucy Paynter on Oct 21, 2023
     | 2,152 views

    If we lived a life of constant health, wealth, and happiness we would become a weak and ineffective Christians: assuming we were somehow capable of maintaining our relationship with Jesus.

    Aspects of Endurance Of course, the need for enduring does not mean we adopt a persecuted-prophet perspective or conduct ourselves so zealously that we induce hardships. It does one no good to manufacture hardships so that they can practice endurance. The endurance Christ repeatedly urges ...read more

    Let Your Light Shine At The Peak

    Contributed by James Dina on Oct 29, 2022
     | 2,150 views

    As of March 2022, 42 percent of pastors had considered leaving full-time ministry within the previous year (BARNA Group Survey). Also, only 30% of the leaders in the Bible finished well. This means that 70% fell short of God’s plan for their lives. Our lights must definitely shine at the peak.

    LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE AT THE PEAK "Son of man, how is the wood of the vine better than any other wood, the vine branch which is among the trees of the forest? (Ezekiel 15:2) Jesus disarmed principalities and powers. He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it. ...read more

    Grace is a divine privilege, not a license to sin. While God’s grace is abundant, it is not endless for those who continually reject it.

    In the Gospels, something amazing happens as Jesus heals a blind man on the way to Jerusalem. This morning we look at this amazing sign, and what the sign is pointing to.

    Good Morning. In our Gospel Lesson, we begin Jesus final approach to Jerusalem, which sets us up for Lent, beginning Wednesday, which is Ash Wednesday.
