    The life of Jonah teaches us that there is nothing we do is hidden from God. Also, we learn that as a church we must be certain of our identity and our purpose so we can glorify God through all we are and all we do.

    We read in Jonah 1:7-8, Then the men said to each other, "We should throw lots to find out why this is happening to us." So the men threw lots. The lots showed that the troubles came to them because of Jonah. Then the men said to Jonah, "It is your fault that this terrible thing is ...read more

    Who Is Jesus To You

    Contributed by Reggie Corfield on Jun 21, 2025
     | 516 views

    Millions around the world know of Jesus but only a fraction of those actually know him. The mission of every Church should be to know Jesus and make him known. On a personal level, who is Jesus to you?

    Todays gospel reading in Luke is the same story also found in Matthew ch.16. The Matthew account has much more detail and so I will use that so we can better understand the story. The geographical setting of today’s gospel story is Caesarea Philippi. This town is located in the North East ...read more

    Solemnity Of Saints Peter And Paul, Apostles

    Paul’s sense of being captured by Christ defined his spiritual experience. Peter understands his error when a vision enlightens him to a fundamental truth: that which has been purified by God cannot be called "profane" by anyone.

    At the narrowest part of the strait of Gibraltar, where two land masses meet (Africa and Europe, at the mouth of the Med), there are cliffs called the “Pillars of Hercules.” It was the end of the known world. On the old coins of Spain were depicted the two pillars of Hercules, with the Latin motto, ...read more

    Jesus asked this question to the disciples.

    The name of Jesus is above any other name. This name cannot be compared to any other name. The name of Jesus is a name that makes demons fear and tremble at the mention of the name of Jesus, the Devil or Satan can never stand whenever the name of Jesus is mentioned.

    Jesus: "I will build My church."

    A. WHAT FUTURE DID JESUS SEE? “I will build My church” (Matt. 16:18). 1. An entity, He begins – “I will.” 2. Didn’t exist then or in Old Testament. 3. Continuous development – “Be building.” 4. Uniquely Jesus’ possession – “My.” 5. He would gather them into an assembly. 6. Victory “all the ...read more

    The Church was never meant to be a museum of saints but a barracks for soldiers. We were not called to maintain comfort, status, or cultural approval—but to advance the Kingdom against the very gates of Hell.

    Matthew 16:18–19 (NKJV) “And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on ...read more

    When Jesus Builds The Church

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 27, 2025
     | 144 views

    What It Takes to Be a Light in a Dark World. Jesus calls His church to reject comfort, silence, and spectacle, and stand strong in His presence, Spirit, and Word.

    Picture Jesus, freshly baptized, water still drying on his shoulders, the voice of the Father ringing in his soul. “You are my beloved Son.” The dove has barely taken flight. That is exactly when the devil comes calling. Nobody gets a free victory lap after baptism. The real fight often starts ...read more

    Your strength is not in your personality or your powerful will, it is in Christ.

    A. PETER THE ROCK “When Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, saying, ‘Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?’ So they said, ‘Some say John the Baptist, some Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.’ He said to them, ‘But who do you say that I ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 28, 2025
     | 120 views

    We cover a lot of ground in this message. Christ is the Merchant who left heaven’s precious glory behind to purchase this priceless Pearl. We look at so many aspects from the formation of the pearl, and Christ and His Church, and confirming scriptures. Lots of points here.

    22. The Kingdom Parables – The Sixth – The Pearl of Greatest Price – Part 2 of 4 This most interesting Parable, most misunderstood, is a delight to study because of the deep truth that comes from it. In Part 1 we saw that the Merchant Man is Jesus Christ who gave up all He had (and ALL that was ...read more

    Unshared Unrivaled Unequaled

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 10, 2025
     | 137 views

    Christ alone is the unshared, unrivaled, unequal Rock; surrender means stepping off the throne of self and letting Him reign today.

    There’s a certain comfort, isn’t there, in imagining that somewhere out there is a man who carries the weight of spiritual certainty on his shoulders. He sits robed, enthroned, vested in centuries of tradition and expectation. His words ripple across continents. His gestures become symbols. His ...read more
