     | 1,633 views

    This is the third sermon I preached in this series. We find a challenge issued by the Holy Spirit through the Apostle John which helps us see how to fulfill the Great Commandments “Love God and Love Others” and the Great Commission.

    Imitating Love

    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Mar 23, 2023
     | 2,405 views

    Paul tells us in Ephesians that we should be imitators of God. God is love so therefore if we are to imitate Him, we become love. This message is about imitating LOVE.

    Imitators of Love Scripture: Matthew 24:10-12; Ephesians 4:31-5:2; First John 4:1-6 The title of my message this morning is “Imitators of Love” and the idea for this message came to me from a message my brother Barry delivered a couple of weeks ago at his Church. Barry’s message, titled ...read more

    Labor Of Love

     | 1,270 views

    Whenever and wherever we are doing God’s work, we are on holy ground. Wherever we find ourselves, we can make it holy by being God’s representative in that place.

    I know this isn’t Labor Day weekend. But it’s too important a topic to skip. It’s big in the news these days, what with unemployment still above 6%. We all know people who are looking for work - and have been for more than 6 months. But hey - work isn’t all it’s cracked up to be, right? How many ...read more

    "To Be Loved”

    Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on May 11, 2023
     | 1,585 views

    We need love. Love is an emotional bond that makes us feel safe, understood, and valued. That is what our mothers have done for us. It is what God has done for us through Jesus. If we keep, if we practice the teachings of Jesus it demonstrates our love for Him.

    In Jesus Holy Name May 14, 2023 Text: John 14:15 Easter VI Redeemer “To Be Loved” Last Sunday I suggested that as we read chapters 13-17 in John we should try imagine ourselves in the Upper Room ...read more

    The Unity Of Love

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on May 13, 2023
     | 2,094 views

    Paul's desire was that the Church would be unified, but what does that look like? We live in a time when the church seems fragmented and divided, and that is affecting who we reach and don't reach people.

    The Unity of Love If nothing else, you need to love the sixties and seventies for their awesome sense of style. The band was “The Brotherhood of Man,” the year was 1970, and the message of the song was spelled out in its title “United we stand, divided we fall.” Interesting tidbit about the ...read more

    Continuing Matthew on Mother's Day, text about the Great Commandment

    Background to passage: to lay the context again, this is Jesus’s last week of his life. He has come into Jerusalem on a donkey to much fanfare and celebration that would be due the messiah. He has also cleansed the temple in rather dramatic fashion. He has be questioned about his authority, about ...read more

    Serve one another and your enemies, and so demonstrate that you follow Jesus.

    Robert Holmes, in his book God’s Man, describes a man who went home with his friend for dinner. The man was impressed by the way his friend entered the house, asked his wife how her day went, and told her she looked pretty. Then, after they embraced, she served dinner. After they ate, the husband ...read more

    First Love

     | 1,463 views

    If only you have first love for Christ, you would cross every barrier, hindrances, blockages and make it to the meetings.

    First love Revelation 2:4 “Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken the love you had at first.” Few words that I read from this chapter about returning back to ‘first love for God’ kind of jolted me, I shared the sermon at our 5am Booster group, that I share here too.

    Love And Hate Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Nov 6, 2023
     | 2,457 views

    In Mark 14, Mark places the themes of love and hate alongside each other to create a sharp contrast. The hatred of the Jewish leaders, is followed by Mary’s loving act, which is followed by Judas’ betrayal. These stories challenge us to examine our feelings and actions toward Jesus.

    Introduction A. I heard the true story of a woman who took a number of children to see a movie. 1. Before going into the seating area, they stopped at the concession stand and the woman offered to buy popcorn for the children to share. 2. One of the children objected declaring, “I hate ...read more
