    At A Time And Place Of God's Choosing

    Contributed by Don Campbell on Mar 22, 2023
     | 952 views

    Most wars are fought for one of three reasons—or a combination of this reasons: territory, ideology, theology. The word “territory” doesn’t always mean land. The Pharisees had carved out a territory, which they intended to defend at all costs (John 11:45-53).

    AT A TIME AND PLACE OF GOD’S CHOOSING Matt 12:15-21/Mk 3:1-8 INTRODUCTION A. Most wars are fought for one of three reasons—or a combination of this reasons: territory, ideology, theology. B.

    Don’t waste the week. Come into intimate contact with the God-man and His redemptive death.

    Palm/Passion Sunday 2023 We have just proclaimed some of the longest, most intense Scriptures of our Christian year, informing us and all the world of the what and why and who of the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ not quite two thousand years ago. These words invite long contemplation; the ...read more

    For The Sake Of The Call

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on May 23, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,465 views

    Jesus called a bunch of smelly fishermen to share in His ministry. So, when Jesus extends a call, what does it look like? What does it entail? What might He ask us to do? Or, what might we have to let go of in order to serve Him?

    I have entitled our message this morning, “For the Sake of the Call,” and we are going to look at how Jesus called a bunch of smelly fishermen to share in His ministry. Allow me to get started with a joke: “Why did Jesus call so many fishermen to become apostles? He was always looking for a ‘net ...read more

    Contributed by Jeffery Anselmi on Apr 19, 2024
     | 660 views

    Isaiah’s prophecy is important because everything that happened to Jesus was a part of God’s plan. A plan for all people!

    INTRODUCTION - Last week, when we started this series, I said that the entire Bible was about Jesus. Sometimes, He sits under the surface of the page; other times, He is hidden between the lines, but this week, we will see Jesus jumping out of the page of the text. - Our text today will illuminate ...read more

    One Cross [symbol Of Our Sin]; One Man [god’s Sacrifice] And A World That Was Changed Forever

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 23, 2024
     | 176 views

    Christ did His part by taking up His cross and shedding His blood for the entire world so that we are redeemed and have eternity with Christ alone. How will you respond to Him today?

    1. ONE CROSS [symbol of our sin]: 1 Corinthians 1:18 “For the message of the CROSS is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.” • Growing up I saw different perspectives of the cross of Christ. • For certain denominations it was a kind of ...read more

    Out-Of-The-Box-Worship

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 24, 2024
     | 503 views

    Worship doesn’t involve behaving as if nothing is wrong; it’s making sure everything is right—right with God and with one another. When our greatest fear is letting down our hair, perhaps our greatest sin is keeping it up.

    Opening illustration: Some of us may feel pressured to be perfect when we go to church so that people will think well of us. Metaphorically speaking, we work hard to make sure we have every hair in place. But a healthy church is a place where we can let down our hair and not hide our flaws behind a ...read more

    A Great Love Story Rarely Told

    Contributed by Craig Benner on Feb 14, 2024
     | 664 views

    We all know the greatest love story is found in John 3:16. There are also many others in the Bible. A few are less talked about than others. There is one that is not considered very much, and for sure, it is hardly ever imitated or emulated.

    ONE OF THE GREATEST LOVE STORIES RARELY TOLD (and more rarely lived out) No butterflies in the stomach or cupids' arrows flying here. God is still looking for someone to espouse the vow of rescuing the perishing; even those who claim that they do not want to be saved. Text to read: Hosea ...read more

    How Can We Stand In The Gap?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 27, 2023
     | 1,108 views

    What is it to stand in the gap for someone else? Is it to stand in the place for another?

    In Chapter 22, we learn why judgment would be placed on Jerusalem (22:2-16), how it would approach them (22:17-22), and who would be affected by it (22:23-31). The Jewish leaders were particularly liable for the ethical environment of the country since God had picked them to lead. Those actions and ...read more

    Was A Sacrificial Lamb Really Necessary For Humanity?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jun 9, 2024
     | 134 views

    If a sacrificial lamb was necessary for people during Biblical times, is one still necessary for people of today?

    As the Hebrews arranged for their departure from subjugation in Egypt, they were told to make bread without yeast (“unleavened bread”) on the grounds that they lacked the necessary amount of time to sit and wait for it to rise. Yeast was likewise an image of wrongdoing, so they were directed to ...read more

    Jesus Faced Judgment In Front Of Pontius Pilate Series

    Contributed by Robert Irvine on Jul 24, 2024
     | 115 views

    Jesus was judged by Pilate and was taken away and died on the cross at Golgotha. Pilate knew that Jesus was innocent yet he substituted the innocent man, Jesus, for the guilty robber and murderer, Barabbas.

    The prophet Isaiah wrote that the suffering servant would suffer judgment. In the previous sermonm, we saw how Jesus was silent when confronted by Pontius Pilate at his illegal trial. I don’t want to repeat what has been said, but suffice it to say Jesus was judged by Pilate and was taken away and ...read more

    Come To The Other Side

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Sep 10, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,078 views

    Two disciples were challenged to cross the sea of Galilee. It takes faith to cross over, and we must make the crossing if we ever hope to be in God's will. Crossing over is about moving from where we are to where Jesus is.

    “Many years ago, it was decided to put a suspension bridge across a wide gorge. How could they build a bridge across such a wide space? If fact, how could they even start? They shot an arrow from one side to the other. The arrow carried across the gulf a tiny thread, and thus the connection was ...read more

     | 192 views

    This sermon invites everyone to reflect on the profound and life-changing path of the Cross.

    Beloved brothers and sisters in Christ, today we gather to reflect on the profound and life-changing path of the Cross. The Cross stands at the center of our faith, not merely as a symbol of suffering, but as a beacon of sacrificial love, the ultimate expression of God’s grace. Walking in the ...read more
