Blowing Up Boxes Series

Contributed by Lanny Smith on Feb 24, 2021

We often find ourselves putting people in "boxes." Race, gender, and endless number of boxes. And it's limiting. We put limits on expectations of others and ourselves. As we follow Jesus, we watch him "blow up" the box around a man born blind.

A Simple Solution To Suffering Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 12, 2021

Paul was a great sufferer of all kinds of unjust pain, and it was not because of sin, but because he was a servant of Christ.

One of the good things to come out of suffering is this: It forces those who cannot see any sense in it to grapple with the mystery, and strive to squeeze some meaning out of it. Almost everyone who writes on suffering does so out of their own personal encounter with this mysterious monster. In ...read more

Man's Extremities Are God's Opportunities To Show His Glory!

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Aug 3, 2021

Amid the many crisis of today, that are causing so much loss and pain, it is wonderful to know that God is still at work. Although, we cannot choose how the works of God, the method God will use to supply the help we need. The good news is that God is still in charge and will help.

Man’s extremities are God’s opportunities to show His Glory in this present world. Our study in John brings us to chapter 9, here we learn some lesson from a blind man. Jesus follows his familiar pattern of worshipping in the temple. Our Lord took great delight in visiting His father’s House. The ...read more

How To Be Used Of God Series

Contributed by James Wallace on May 12, 2021

Incredibly, God can use our disabilities, as well as our abilities for His glory. A man born blind discovers this and it changes both his life and his destiny? How can God use you in a similar way?

Last week, in John 8, we saw how Jesus concluded his great and brutal debate with his avowed enemies, the Jewish religious leaders of his generation. He had begun the debate with the statement in the temple that He was the light of the world. He concluded it by making what I believe to be ...read more

How To Find The Good Shepherd Series

Contributed by James Wallace on Jun 8, 2021

The world is a very dangerous place spiritually, full of wolves that come to us in sheep's clothing, evil shepherds masquerading as good shepherds. How do we find the Good Shepherd? How do we determine the difference between good shepherds and bad? Jesus provides insight in John 10.

If you’re only casually familiar with the Bible, you might be surprised to find out that one of the major themes of the New Testament is false teachers. Under this general category fall false shepherds, false prophets and false apostles. You see, the Bible claims to be the truth about God and ...read more

The Blind Man With 20/20 Vision

Contributed by John Gaston on Nov 7, 2018

A blind man had 20-20 vision while those who could see were blind to the spiritual realm. It's possible to have a miracle but not know Jesus. Take that second step!

Sent Ones Series

Contributed by Scott Turansky on Dec 25, 2022

Nobody can argue with the fact that you once were blind, Jesus did something, and now you see. We can have the confidence to go out and share that with others.

You know, one of those things that we receive when we become Christians is we receive a testimony. You get a testimony and that testimony is pretty powerful. It's a testimony that helps you to be able to communicate a message to the world. There's a world waiting out there for a message ...read more

The High Cost Of Standing For Jesus Series

Contributed by Doug Fannon on Jan 28, 2019

Standing for Jesus may extract a high price, and sometimes it is not from the world, but from those those within the church.

Opening the eyes of the blind. Though this 9th chapter of John is about Jesus giving sight to a man born blind, but there is so much more here. The physical eyes being opening is not nearly as significant as the spiritual eyes. The blind man’s spiritual eyes where being opened and he was seeing ...read more

Jesus Gives Sight, To Those Who Want It (John 9:1-41) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Feb 8, 2022

Jesus gives physical sight, and spiritual sight. By chapter's end, the only blind ones left are the Pharisees. Have to be open-minded, and know what you don't know.

At this point in the gospel of John, some of you are maybe feeling a little confused. John is not a very easy book. Jesus' words seem complicated-- they are "from above," as he is from above, and we struggle to climb up, and view things from above, and understand them from ...read more

Four Wonderful Miracles (The Messianic Miracles Of The Lord)

Contributed by Eric Hanson on Feb 29, 2024

The Pharisees and the rabbinical school taught that when the Messiah came, he would do certain miracles that nobody had ever done before. In this sermon, you will see that Jesus fulfilled this template perfectly, but was rejected by the Sanhedrin anyway.

Four Wonderful Miracles Pastor Eric J. Hanson March 3rd 2024 This message is designed to give us a look at how Jesus revealed himself to be the Messiah (anointed one and coming King) of the Jews. In the process of this revelation, He revealed a great heart of love and compassion for the people. He ...read more
