    Decreased, Dependent, But Not Disconnected

    Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Aug 16, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,440 views

    Find balance. Depend upon Him, but when you see the obvious, just do it.

    John 3:30 He must increase, but I must decrease. This is the calling of all Christians. Daily, we are to decrease our wills and allow His will to increase until we have no will but His. I see two extremes. There are people who miss the obvious before them and pray about everything often missing ...read more

    “To prepare the way of the Lord,” what does that mean? Is John calling the people to do some road work? Is John saying that we need to go out and get hired on with road crew?

    Introduction In Matthew 3:3, the great prophet Isaiah says John the Baptist will call the people to prepare the way of the Lord, to make His path straight. “To prepare the way of the Lord,” what does that mean? Is John calling the people to do some road work? Is John saying that we need to go out ...read more

    The Voice

     | 972 views

    John knew who he was; "I am the voice". A voice is temporary. A voice is fleeting. A voice is fading. John saw himself as a fading voice that is crying out in the wilderness. Each generation has a voice, and we are the temporary voice for this time for this place.

    In 1948, ...a remarkable religious phenomenon occurred... in the United States. It began in a tent ... near Hollywood California, ...under the preaching ... of a young evangelist.

    Some For A Reason, Some For A Season, And Some For A Lifetime

    Contributed by Anthony Sosa on Jan 14, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 896 views

    Have you ever wondered why God places certain people in your life or calls you to a specific task? Some callings are meant to fulfill a specific purpose, others to last only for a season, and a few are designed to span a lifetime—all serving God’s greater plan for His kingdom.

    Some for a REASON, some for a SEASON, and some for a LIFETIME The concept that “God calls some into a specific ministry for a reason, some for a season, and some for a lifetime” reflects the biblical understanding of the variety, purpose, and timing of God’s callings. Throughout Scripture, we see ...read more

    Sermon # 45 - Give God The Rightful Place Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jan 28, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 350 views

    Jonah as a prophet of God did not give God the rightful place. When we obey God, serve Him alone, and set aside all that displeases Him, we will truly honor God and give Him the rightful place in our lives.

    We read in Jonah 4:7, “But God appointed a worm at the rising of the dawn of the next day, and it struck the plant, and it withered.” (LITV) As Jonah enjoyed the shade of the plant that God had prepared for him, the Lord appointed a worm that obeyed God’s bidding, and ate up the plant, so that it ...read more

    Hey there, Church! Today we're going to jump right into a deep topic that impacts every single one of us - our view of ourselves. Now, let's not kid ourselves, it's a tough one.

    Explore the necessity and benefits of humility, using the example of John the Baptist, who embodied the principle of "He must become greater; I must become less."

    Good morning, family! We're going to be diving into some deep waters today, exploring a theme that's as vital today as it was in the time of Christ: humility. As Andrew Murray once wrote, "Humility is the only soil in which the graces root; the lack of humility is the sufficient explanation of ...read more

    To emphasize the importance of humbling ourselves, decreasing in our own importance, to allow God to increase in our lives, and how this surrender can positively impact our church and community.

    Good morning, Church! Today's message is one of humility, of sacrifice, and of the power that lies within a church that lifts God high above all else. We're going to unwrap the profound truth hidden in John 3:30 which says, "He must increase, but I must decrease." It's about The Necessity of ...read more

    What would it mean to have more (Smore) of Jesus and less of me? And how would I know if I lived my life that way?

    A man told of having some friends over for a barbeque in his back yard, and they’d just passed out marshmallows and long roasting forks ready to make S’mores. At that point, 2 fire trucks raced by and stopped at a house just down the street. He and his friends and ran down the street and found ...read more

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 23, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,239 views

    As Jonah fled from the presence of God, he had no idea as to the consequences he would face. We as a church too must be cautious in many ways so that we do no lose out on the awesome presence of God and His Holy Spirit.

    We read in Jonah 1:3, “But Jonah rose up to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD. And he went down to Joppa. And he found a ship going to Tarshish. And he paid its fare, and went down into it, in order to go with them to Tarshish, away from the presence of the LORD.” (AFV) As we continue ...read more
