    Diversity. Equity. Inclusion.?

    While we would never encourage a church to be "woke," there is a biblical expectation that we will practise Scriptural diversity, Equity, and Inclusion as demonstrated by Jesus.

    “[Jesus] came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up. And as was his custom, he went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and he stood up to read. And the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written, ‘The Spirit of the Lord ...read more

    The Danger Of Easy Believism

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 3, 2022
     | 2,357 views

    A salesman was telling some folks he got a job as a salesman. They provided him with a kit where he could go into people’s homes with products and show them some of the products this company sold.

    Basically this is what the Lord Jesus has done. He has given us the gospel of Christ to take into the homes of people and show them what the Lord can do for them if they will accept Him. The gospel of Christ is all that God has given to the church to reach a lost world. But there are some who ...read more

    One of the things that we are impressed by today, is numbers.

    When we drive down the highway and see a lot of cars in the parking lot of a restaurant, we assume that it is a great place to eat. Many of us would admit that we have eaten at places where the parking lot was filled with cars, but we were not impressed with the food or the service. We make that ...read more

    Shall Your Brothers Go To War While You Sit Here?

    Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 2, 2022

    “Shall Your Brothers Go To War While You Sit Here?” In other words, will other Christians pay the price while we are secret disciples? Will others witness while we keep silent? Will others work in the church while we just obtain the benefits?

    SHALL YOUR BROTHERS GO TO WAR WHILE YOU SIT HERE? Numbers 32:1-15 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A man & woman were married for many years. Whenever there was a confrontation, yelling could be heard deep into the night. The old man would shout, “When I die, I will dig my way up & out of the ...read more

    The Cost Of Following Jesus Series

    Contributed by Jason Duhon on May 3, 2023
     | 3,435 views

    It isn’t easy to follow Christ. There are costs and benefits. Today, we examine the price we pay to follow Jesus.

    It was forty days after the resurrection of the Messiah Jesus. His disciples had been marveling at all that had happened. His death turned their world upside down. With the earthquake that coincided with his passing and the temple’s veil having been torn, there were reports throughout Jerusalem of ...read more

    Everything Is Ready

    Jesus pictures the kingdom as a banquet—an invitation to joy. In Luke 14:7–24 He confronts pride, exposes excuses, and calls for a humble, wholehearted response to His invitation—today, not “someday.”

    The next couple of weeks we're going to be spending time in Luke 14, in a mini-series called "Come to the Table." I named the series this because - don't you just love invitations to eat? At first I thought that "Let's Eat" may have been a better title for this ...read more

    Jim Eliot, once famously wrote in his diary on 28th October 1949: “He is no fool who gives up what he cannot keep, to gain that which he cannot lose” . And Jesus says something similar in this morning's Gospel reading

    As Jesus continues his journey toward Jerusalem, he makes some statements that reveal just how costly discipleship is.

    The Cost Of Discipleship

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Feb 7, 2025
     | 761 views

    Discipleship is not just about following Christ; it comes with a cost. Jesus made it clear that those who follow Him must be ready to deny themselves, take up their cross, and prioritise His kingdom above all else.

    THE COST OF DISCIPLESHIP By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Luke 14:25-33 Supporting Texts: Matthew 16:24-26, Philippians 3:7-8, Mark 10:28-30, 2 Timothy 3:12 INTRODUCTION: Discipleship is not just about following Christ; it comes with a cost.

    Have you noticed how frequently Jesus is depicted eating? Luke mentions 19 meals, 13 unique to this gospel alone. This reveals something special about Jesus—He valued meals not just for food but as powerful opportunities for ministry, relationship-building, and extending God's kingdom.

    A Glutton If you've read the gospel of Luke - have you noticed just how often Jesus is depicted as eating? It's everywhere - there are 19 meals in Luke, 13 of which are unique to this gospel.

    The Church Mission

    The church is failing in its mission to preach and teach the Gospel to every nation, people, and tongue as Jesus commanded, because we are busy preaching feel-good prosperity-based messages.

    And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; ...read more

    We have our own idea of what the essence of obedience is. But, according to Jesus, just what is it?

    “Now great crowds accompanied him, and he turned and said to them, ’If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple. Whoever does not bear his own cross ...read more

    Counting The Cost Series

    Jesus said that if we are thinking about following Him, then we should first add up the cost. If we have not considered the task ahead of time, then we may give up; and when this happens, it is a bad testimony to the world.

    This evening’s message is entitled, “Counting the Cost,” and it’s taken from a passage of Scripture that is sometimes called, “The Cost of Discipleship.” When Jesus spoke about the cost of discipleship He incorporated two parables to illustrate His point. One parable speaks of a tower builder and ...read more
